THE CHRISTMAS D1NNEK.

IN spite of the fact that the word
dyspepsia means literally bad cook. it
viii not be fair for many to lay the
blame on the cook If they begin the
Christmas dinner with little appetite
and end it with distress or nausea. 1t
may not be fair for any to do that
let US hope SO far the sake of the
cook! The disease dyspepsia indicates
a bad stomach. that is a weak stom-
ach, rather than bad cook. and for
a weak stomach there is nothing else
equal to HOODS sarsaparilla. 1t gives
the stomach vigor and tone. cures dys-
pepsia, creates appetite, and makes
eating the pleasure 1T should he.

ADJUSTMENTS
One of the Best Rube Plays

"Joshua Simpkins," four.act New England play, will be presented at Dreamland tonight. The climax of stage realism it is asserted, has been reached in the presentation of the stirr- ing sawmill scene in "Joshua Simp- kins," and will be presented in this city by a peculiar mechanical device which has never before been introduced here before. This sawmill scene is claimed to be vast improvement over any attempts in similar line. The company also boasts of splendid or chestra, which is carried complete by the organization, to aid in the proper presentation of the play, which is said to abound with musical and dancing spe- cialties of high order. To assist "Joshua Simpkins" in popularity a band of music is also carried and a concert is given which is said to be far above anything usually heard with travelling musical organization. The parade will leave the theater at the usual time and take the usual route, making burlesque parade.
