SCHOOL TEACHER
and Coffee Drinking.

Many good people are 10th to give up coffee, even though they admit that it Is doing them harm, because they fear that nothing else in the way of hot beverage will satisfy them A school teacher says;
 q always enjoyed coffee for break fast. The day seemed lost without it. But in time I began to experience bad results from its use I grew very ner- vous and lost flesh and finally was prostrated by complete nervous breakdawn Then was compelled to abandon the use of coffee.
 q adopted Postum Food Coffee as my hot beverage at breakfast Have been using it for more than two years My health is restored and I am able to take an interest in life once more.
 My whole family, children and all, drink Postum Food Coffee, and we all thrive and keep healthy on it, It is to us a delightful drink, delicious and tempting and with none of the harmful effects that usually followed the use of coffee.

New Haven Theatre.

Henry Arthur Jones play, The Hypocrites," which Charles Frohman is now presenting at the Hudson thea ter, New York, has the greatest. record of success of any of the productions of the season. From last August until the present time it has drawn crowded houses and has grown in popularity with each succeeding week. There is no question but that it is the strongest
 and most powerful serious drama New York has seen in the past decade, and its author Henry Arthur Jones has written nothing that is more attractive or more striking. Telling a wonder fully interesting love story, it's dialogue is brilliant, and the variety and scope of the characters great. Unquestiona- bly 'The Hypocrites' is interpreted by the best balanced cast of players New York has seen in years, the resultant performance being one that the lovers of good plays can most thoroughly en- joy. A London fayorite although un- known In this country portrays the part ofa curate and he has most thoroughly established his reputation as an earnest, capable and sincere pow erful actor. The girl about whom the story revolves is played by Doris Keane. Richard Bennett is her lover, and Jessie Millward and J. H. Barnes are the. boys parents. "The Hypo- critics, with its remarkable cast is to be brought to this city directly after its New York engagement, will be pre- scented at the New Haven theater on Monday night, February 25, The sale of seats opens this morning at a. m. at the box office.

THE HART MEMORIAL WINDOW,
 NEW HAVEN. CONN.

Tn commemoration of long and helpful service in the community and in the cause of Christianity. beautiful memorial window was unveiled yester- day at the Grand Avenue Congrega- tional church. The widow is placed in memory of Rev. Dr. Burdett Hart and his wife, and is a gift to the church from their daughters.
 The memorial was executed in Fav- rifle glass by the Tiffany studios of New York, and has for it's subject one of the most thoughtful delineations of the great religious artist, Heinrich Hoff- mann, the Invitation of the Saviour, Come Unto Me"
 In the execution of the work the theme, of the artist has been faithfully portrayed, and the glass has been so selected as to fully express in every sense the intent and spirit of the de- sign. The framing of the window is of glass, in harmony with the figure panel, and in it's classic simplicity it is thor oughly in accord with the architectural lines of the church. The work as a whole expresses the highest type of art lin storied windows. In the base of the window is the memorial inscription:
 In loving memory of
 1S21-Rev. Burdett Hart D. D.--1906 and his wife.
 1823-Rebecca w. Hart-19O2
 Who together for thirty years
 Ministered to this Church.

srEINERrs WIN \ pRIzE,

Some time since the M. steinert & Sons Co, conceived the idea of mak- ing the display of their Victor talking machine department in their window more effective by using placards put. ting words as 1t were in the mouth of the dog. One of these placards read: "Next@to my Masters Voice like to hear Silver Threads Among the Gold',' adding an initiation to step in and hear that and other records, and slgn- ed, "The Dog"
 The concern was not aware that there was any contest on, but merely for warded to the Victor company photo graph of the display as a matter of general interest, and to make them aware of it's interest in displaying their goods. Accordingly their surprise was great on receiving a day or two since a $10 check as a prize in a con- test for window display Naturally, of course, the, the firm is pleased that its way of doing things Victorwise has met with the approval of the manufactur- CTS, as it has so generously that of the public.

READY FOR THE RUSH,

Yale sophs Parade Campus Flushed
 With Anticipation of Victory.
 Last evening there was a series of war whoops on upper Chapel street. which made the Yale freshmen run for cover. By the light Of glaring red fire could be seen a multitude of young men in tall hats of all ages and styles, and of still more states of slilapida- tion, loudly proclaiming themselves sophonlores. The parade strutted about the campus for some time, cheering and yelling over their victory to come this morning in the fence rush. Mean- while the freshmen spent the evening working up their muscles, and eating many kinds of patent foods to bring them strength. Perhaps the sophs will not feel 50 happy by g o'clock this morning, was the feeling displayed on York street.

BUT CUTICURA WORKS
 A MIRACULOUS CURE

"When my little boy was six months old he had eczema. The sores extended so quickly over the whole body that we at once called in the doctor. We then went to another doctor. but he could not help him, and in our despair we went to a third one. Matters be- came so bad that he had regular holes in bis cheeks, large enough to put finger Into. The food had to be given with a spoon, for his mouth was covered with crusts as thick as finger, ard when- ever he opened the mouth they began to bleed and suppurate, as did also his eyes. Hands, arms, chest and back, in short the whole body was covered oyer and over. We had no rest by day or night. Whenever ho was laid in his bed, we had to pin his hands down, otherwise he would scratch his face and make an open sore. think his face must have itched most fearfully.
 We finally thought nothing could help, and had made up my mind to send my wife with the child to Europe, hoping that the sea air might cure him, otherwise he was to be put under good medical care there. But, Lord be blessed, matters came differently, and we soon saw q miracle. A friend of ours spoke about Cuticura. We made a trial with Cuticura Soap. Ointment. and Resolvent, and within ten days or two weeks we noticed a decided lm- provement. Just as quickly as tho Sickness had appeared it also began to disappear, and within ten weeks the child was absolutely well, and his skin was smooth and white as never before. F.

"As TOLD IN THE HILLS" :"

''As Told in the Hills" the new melo- drama of Western Life, which is be- ing presented by w. F. Mann, is re- garded as one of the best dramatic of ferings of the season. The play is one that appeals especially to lovers of melodrama who have grown tired of those depicting life in the under world where crime and debauchery are brought to view, and in contrast with that class of play the new production is refreshingly clean and bright all through. The opening scene of the play, where the little band of emigrants has been surrounded by hostile Indians and in danger of annihilation, is in tensely thrilling, while the later scenes showing the Arkansas farm have a charming touch of nature that is made especially effective by not being over drawn. This new and intensely inter esting play will be seen at the New Haven theater for two nights and Wednesday matinee, commencing on Tuesday night, February 26. Regular popular prices.
