been a great Improvement in this respect the
hideous and unsanitary crepe veil having en-

THE MASK OF HEALTH.
Few People Are Really as Well as They
Look-cause and Remedy.

Many people in Gainesville, both
men and women, who believe them
selves to be in perfect health, are of
ten in the greatest danger,
Indigestion, which is so common a
trouble, is the principal cause Of the
greater share of the general poor
health. It has misleading symp-
toms that seem to have no reference
to the stomach, such as headache,
sleeplessness, specks before the eyes,
pains in the back and side, etc.
The success of physicians every
where with the prescription that is
now embodied in Mona stomach tab
let's has made this remedy in the last
few years the acknowledged specific
for the treatment of stomach diseases.
The secret of this success lies In the
fact that Mona is prepared express
ly to strengthen the digestive organs
and its use for few days puts the
whole digestive system in such shape
that 1t can care for all Of the food that
is eaten without pain or distress.
Simply take a Mona stomach tab
let before each meal and on retiring,
and It will so strengthen the stomach
that you can enjoy a hearty meal with
out the least fear Of distress or SUI.

HENRY c. SERGEANT.

westneld N J.. Jan. s1-Henry c. Sergeant died
ut his home hers last night. Mr.. Sergeant was an
inventor OF interna oi,al reputation, and the United
States Patent Once had issued TO him over fifty
patents a number OF them covering the develop
ment OF the rock drill and air compressor. II was
his development OF the drill which made possible
many of the great engineering feats OF the last
century and those now in progress. Mr.. Sergeant
was born in Ohio in 1888.
A governor for marine engines preventing the
racing OF propelers was patented in 1862 and the
United States government at once adopted II for
tho vessels building. During the next few
years he had machine shop in New York and II
was there. IN the early EOS, that Simon Ingersoll
took the first drawings fer the original Ingersoll
rock drill. The drill was originally driven by
steam. but the greater possibilities % compressed
air for it turned Alr. Sergeants mind in that d.
rection, and the air compressor put the
market.
Soon after the elevated railroads were built in
New York the company discovered that its uncan-
celled tickets were being used over and over The
Third avenue line Of which he was a director, and
the familiar chopping boxes on the elevated and
subway and in the various ferry houses were
adopted at his suggestion. He leaves wife. three

"THE LITTLE MICHUS."
Garden Theatre.

A French musical comedy. imported by way OF
London, reached New York last night, and the
audience at the Garden Theatre made the &C
Quaintance OF 1.-The Little Michus." This audience
also made the acquaintance OF new comedian
from England. George Graves who Is an ire
sistibly dron individual. and of charming score
by Andre Messenger. a score that, OF course. is
musically sound. but that is also unfailngly
buoyant, good humored. ingratiating It has
been long time since a musical comedy has
come TO a New York theatre with score so
consistently praisewOrthy. The two characters
who give the play its name. the daughters OF
old man Michu, played last night by
two girls hastily put into the parts, because
OF the deserton Wednesday OF the actresses
engaged so the play lost something OF the charm
II by rights possesses and will doubtless later dis
play The naive prayer to St. Valentine. sung by
the two little maidens and suggesting the lovely
old French carols in its simple melody, WILL for in
stance, be much appreciated when better
sung. But Mr. Graves, IN his character of q be-
medalled general with wooden leg, was a
variation on the old SILLY ass Englishman' theme,
and he alone would have made the play success.
Il don't sing at all now" he declared In q hoarse
voice. silk worms my hobby" Later he de-
scribed the gazeeka, bald animal found In Japan.
IL is so bald that when the moonlight shines
on # the other animals mistake It for turnip
nibble It. The gazeeka has a hard life. The gen.
eral also once kept a LADY hedgehog called Helen.
Miss EHta Proctor Otis and George Fortesoue
were portly and natural Mr.. and Mrs Michu
and Ernest Lamba-t's legs were humorous addi-
tons to the cast. The text adapted from the
French by Henry Hamilton. is not good az the
music, but IL is offensive neither to the taste nor
the intelligence. The scene, with its costumes OF
tie Michus'' is welcome addition to the list OF
local attractions.
