Weakness

The action of the heart de-
ponds upon the heart nerves
and muscles. When from any
cause they become weak or ex-
hausted, and fail to furnish
sufficient power, the heart Aut-
tiers, palpitates, skips beats;
and in its effort to keep up its
work, causes pain and distress,
such as smothering spells,
short breath, fainting, pain
around heart, arm and Shout
ders. The circulation is i'm
peded, and the entire system
suffers from lack of nourish-
ment.
DR.. Miles Heart Cure makes
a heart strong and vigorous by
Strengthening these nerves and
muscles.
II had palpitation and pain around
my heart, and the doctors said it was
incurable. don't believe it now, for
after taking six bottles Of DR.. Miles
Heart Cure, three bottles Of the Nervine
and three boxes Of the Nerve and
Liver Pulls I am entirely cured, and
feel better than have for five years,
and Il Is all due to these remedies. I
want you to know that your medicines
cured me. 1t relieved me from the
first dose, and kept right on till the
pain in my chest was gone, and / kept
on feeling better even after ! quit
taking It" JOHN H. SHERMAN.

ADJUSTMENTS.
His House In Order.v

John Drew and his company in Pinero's comedy, His House in Order" gave a performance last night that has seldom been equalled, never surpassed in Bir- mingham. When this seasons artistic treats enumerated those who wit messed the performance last night will put it among the first, and even when they go back and think of the plays and players for years past 1t will be hard to find one that surpassed His House in Order"
 One scene in the performance, were all others taken out, would make the play a masterpiece, and the acting of John Drew and Margaret Ellington in that scene were worth a score of other scenes. It is not the only scene of the play that is intense with human interest, but it is the great climax of the play, a climax so full of human emotions and sympathies that fl held iecec spellbound for minutes, so quiet that a pin might have dropped and been heard all over the the atre. The acting in this one scene, If Mr Drew and Miss Ellington never act another scene, would stamp them as among the great
 Pinero has chosen a subject capable of his best efforts A young woman has mar ried a wldower of the model wife, the woman who kept his house in order. The second wife is different from the first, loves her dogs, to hunt to ride and what not and in this differs from the first wife. Miss Ellington is the second wife to Filmer lesson, M. P, and John Drew Is Hllray lesson, brother to tijmer, the part of c. Nj Halard.
 The company supporting MT. Drew and Miss Ellington could hardly be improved on. In it are numbered Edith Mondozaz as Rerek lesson, the child; Arthur Elliott as Sir Daniel Ridseey. the father; Lums- den Hare, as Major Maurewarde; Martin Sabine, th& brother of the first wife; Lena Halliday, as Lady Ridgeley; Olive Oliver as Geraldine Ridgeley, the sister; and Hope Latham, as Mlle Thome, the gov erness.
 The play is sumptuously staged, much of the furniture evidently being imported for the piece. In detail it was a master piece of stagecraft.

while Van Hoose has within the past three seasons come to the front as the most popular tenor on the stage.
 At the Worcester festival last year, Van Hioose was featured as chief among the prominent singers gathered there, and his work aroused great enthusiasm.
 "Van Hoose gave a rare treat in the are from Meyerbeer's Huguenots, " re- ported the Daily Telegraph. This se- lection is seldom -eard in concert, per haps because 1t is such a daring test for the voice, the accompaniment being but very few scattered chords, given wholly in a single instrument, the viola. Under such conditions, the singers ef- forts stand out in startling relief, and any blemish Is doubly apparent. Mir. Van Hoose never appeared to more fa- vorable advantage"
 At this same festival, Van Hoose had the distinction of singing the leading role of Sir Edward Edgers Dream of Gerontius," which he had created the year before, after having studied 1t with the composer himself while a guest at the latter's country place in England. Speaking of Van Hoose in this role. the critic of a New York paper wrote:
 He is one of the few tenors who could sustain this trying part satisfactorily. There Is no need to speak of his work with any degree of reservation. His voice is fresh and smooth, with all that manly quality that has made him well come to the operatic and concert stage. It was wonderful to note how exquisitely A1.1 only the weakness of the dying man was well suggested in the first part, but the simplicity with which Gerontlus yielded to the guardian angel in the second was delieately simulated. In the strenuous passages, and there are many, he rose untiringly to the occaslon.'

Dur ing the day the President had a con- ference with Frank B. Kellog, special counsel for the interstate commerce com mission. concerning a number of impor- tant railroad matters.

THOUGHT TO BE SUICIDE

Mobile, March 2S.-(Special) )-The body of an unknown white man was found floating in the drift in the river near Three Mile creek today. Attached secure ly to the body by means of rope and wire about the waist was an iron grate bar weighing at least seventy-fve pounds, the drift alone supporting the body and pre- venting it from sinking. The body was viewed by Coroner Hirshfeld.
 As there were no marks of violence about the body, he is of the opinion that it is case of suicide. The body is that of man about 30 years old. five feet five inches high, weight 1SO pounds, clean shaven, brown hair and grey eyes.
 The body was clothed in a neat suit of brown and had been in the water about week. There was nothing by which the identity could be established. except a Woodman of the World pin on the lapel of the coat.
