LIKE AN OLD LOVE STORY.
The Sweetest Girl in Dixie a True
American Play.

Il is encouraging to note that
the success of 1.-THE Sweetest
Girl in Dixie" has been made
along legitimate lines, appealing
to the better side of the theatre
going public, which proves the
merit ct this piece, which was
written by an American woman
or American playgoers. Truly
it possesses that one touch OF
nature-heart interest that makes
the whole world kin and with its
perfect blending of humor and
pathos it is a fine example OF
realism in the dramatic art.
1t has been likened to a sweet
violet blooming in Ted of holly
hooks, a play with that quaint
homely pathos that winds around
your heart like the stratus of an
old love song. This excellent
attraction will appear at the opera

HE FIXED THEM.
And They Do Not Hurry Now
A Rink Story.

The "boys" formerly had a
habit of rushing things at the
skating rink and instead of lining
up and receiving their skates
in turn from the clerk they would
make a grab through the window
and take the skates lying in sight
But they don't do that any more.
They don't appear to be in any
hurry whatever, and so for as
making a grab in order to get
ahead of the next fellow-why,
you could not tempt them to do
such thing even with the
Iswellest pair of rollers in town.
1t came about through the in.
genuity of "Robbie" Conr, the
clerk who paases out the skates.
He had been much annoyed by
the practice of the ''rubes"
who would not wait their turn
but crowded to the window and
seized the first skates within
reach. Young Conn has ideas
of his own and knows how to
use them, and he quietly set
about to put stop to the nui.
sance.
He attached an electric wire
to the light wire and then arrang-
ed it on a base on which he
placed the skates i'll such man.
ner that they were charged with
over 100 volts of electricity. The
rollers were left just inside the
window, and looked as innocent
as a sheep to the casual observer.
Having prepared for the fray
"Bobbie" opened up for business
that night and calmly awaited
results. They soon came. There
was the usual jam at the rink
door and the usual rush for ac.
commodations, and the first boy
who reached the window made q
grab for the innocent looking
rollers. Immediately thereafter
the youth thought he had beer
stricken with palsy or been kick
ed by government mule. HI
was sent staggering back and hi
arm felt like it had been yankec
ont of its socket. Aud he lef
the skates. Others tried it a
various times with similar result
and, "Bobbie", so the repor
goes, is now in peaceful possess
ion of the situation and is NJ
longer troubled with rudenes
por undue haste on the part of hi
patrons.

OUR NATIONAL DANGER.
Time to Call a Halt Before Pan

The business spirit is crushing out the
sweeter element of home life. We are in
danger of great commercial decline, be-
cause men, as whole, think only of get
ting wealth.
There are thousands, both men and
women, who do not take time to eat prop
erly. They rush through life, and as
result We have an age of indigestion,
nervousness, irritability, sleepless nights
and morose dispositions.
With the discovery of Mi-o-na tablets,
there is no longer any excuse for one to
have ill health from stomach weakness.
Mi-o.na strengthens the walls of the
stomach. stimulates secretion of the d.
gestive juices, regulates the liver and re-
stores muscular contraction to TIE intes-
tines and bowels, so no laxative is need
ed.
Sick headaches. palpitation, bad taste
in the mouth, yellow skin, irritability,
coated tongue and melancholy are few
of the many distressing results of indiges-
ton. Mi-o-na never fails to dispel all
these troubles.
