New Ilavcn Theatre.

The two jolly fellows, Gordon and Gilbert, in the second edition of the merry musical comedy, Hans and Nix" are announced for the production at the New Haven theater to-day, mat inee and night, This jolly jingle seems to have hit the press and public as just right, inasmuch as it has been present. ed in every city of note in the United States to phenomenal business. It is cheering conglomeration of gaiety girls, music and fun, and although it contains an original score of twenty numbers and borders on light opera, neverthe- less 1t admits of many i1igh-class and costly specialties, and is presented by an organization of twenty people. This comedy lays but little claim to plot, and is presented for the sole purpose of introducing laughter and beauty and song, corralling all the refreshing ele- ments of gorgeous scenery, brilliant costumes, jolly nonsense, entrancing music, clever comedians, fascinating

THE GREAT KELLAR.

By all means take the children to see Kellar's new mystery, "The Witch, the Sailor and the Enchanted Monkey, '' during dis engagement at the New Ha- ven theater tomorrow, matinee and night. They will remember it as long as they live.
 Kellar's name is synonymous with mystery and magic. He has travelled the world over many times and has brought to his magic art all the re- sources of the Indies, the wonders of interior Africa, the yogis and fakirs of Hindustan; in fact, Kellar has studied every known school of magic and from each he has learned something to give finish and polish to his own wonder working creations. This season he has an illusion whioh has created a sensa- ton wherever it has been seen. This weird and fantastic bit of mystery is called "The Witch, the Sailor and the Enchanted Monkey" and in the course of it's production some six characters come and go, appear and disappear at the will of the mighty wizard, a part played by Kellar himself. Men and women are, or seem to be, materlallzed from nothing and just as suddenly and as mysteriously do they dislntegrate and fade away when Kellar waves his wand.
 Among the other features of his great entertainment no one has evoked more discussion or made profounder im- pression on the spectators than the 'Levitation," a marvellous bit of magic inwhich Kellar shows that he has well learned the lessons of the wonder workers of India.

ENTERTAINMENTS
Hyperion Thcnter.

"The Tourists" one of the few good musical comedies with a good company, will be seen at the Hyperion theater next Monday and Tuesday evenings Its career of six months at the Majes- tic in New York and of four months in Boston bespeak book and lyrics of unusual merit. The music which con- tains many catchy, rhythmic tunes, is by Gustav Kerker, while book and lyr- tcs are by R. H. Burnside.
 MT. Burnside has chosen for his en- vironment the mythical city of Ranga- pang, in the interior of Hindustani, where he has brought two parties of American tourists, one consisting of young girls and the other of a young American student, accompanied by his eccentric tutor and guardian. The Ra- jah of Rangapang not only resents this Intrusion, but desires to add to his harem at least one of these young girls. Complications follow which af- ford situations for the richest fun-mak- ing.
 Comedian Sloane has been equally happy in setting the story to music, and the score, like the libretto, is a gem of the first water. The songs are sure to catch the popular ear on the instant and the choruses have the swing and rhythm, with workmanlike finish, that has marked all of this gifted young composers previous successes.
 The combination of Messrs. Lowe and Sloane "listens" as a particularly good union of men of genius who have dove tailed perfectly to. produce the sort of entertainment that the theater-going public most prefer.
 Among the artists of rare merit that have been engaged for this big pro- duction is Alice Kraft Bentson, whose

IA Voice From
 i The Stomach
A BLOODLESS FIGHT BETWEEN A TABLET
 AND A AABIT-THE HABIT WINS.

At the age of twenty-two Clarence had good digestion. He had gastric juice that could dissolve doughnuts and turn apple-sklns into good blood corpuscles.
 At the age of twenty-four he began to be profuse about the waist and lean backwards. He also began to cultivate several chins. In his new-found pride he began to think 1t his duty to gorge himself on everything, the good and the bad, for appetite feeds on appetite and every good thing is abused. : His pictures showed that he took on weight after he put his collar on.
 At the age of twenty-six Clarence married and went to boarding. On top of all this he attended oyster suppers and wine dinners, which reduced the size of his collar from 1872 to 15. With still abiding faith in the strength of his stomach he gulped his meals and chew ed them afterwards.
 At the age of twenty-eight Clarence began to hear an inward voice-a warn- ing from the stomach. After each meal he would feel bloated-and belching be- came a habit
 He began to be light eater-and a heavy thin.zer. He tried to think out a cure, for now he would sit down at his meals absolutely disgusted at the thought or sight of anything to eat
 He would sit down at his meals with out the trace of an appetite, just be- cause 1t was time to eat.
 He would often feel a gnawlng, un- satisfied, ''still-hungry" feeling in his stomach, even after he was through eating, whether his meal was well cook ed or not.
 And he suffered a good many other things with his stomach that he could not explain, but that made him grouchy, miserable, out-o'-sorts and generally sour on everybody and every- thing.
 Finally he read an account, something like this, about the truly wonderful re- suits obtained from stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets in all eases of stomach trouble, dyspepsia, and so on. He bought a 50- cent box at the drug store and took the Whole box. When he started he had little faith-and less appetite When he finished he had absolute faith--and more appetite, and more good cheer, Things began to taste different and bet ter to him.
 Now he has no more dyspepsia, no more indigestion, no more loss of ap- petite brash, irritation, burning sen- sation, heartburn, nausea, quotations, bad memory, or loss of vim and vlgor,
 Remember, one ingredient of Stuart s Dyspepsia Tablets will digest for you 5000 grains of food, just as it did for Clarence.
 This relieves your stomach of the work of digesting until your stomach can get strong and healthy again. Your stomach has been overWorked and abused, It's fagged out. It needs a rest.
 Let Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets do the work of your stomach, You will be surprised how fine you'll feel after eating, and bow lusciously good every thing will taste to you.
 Heed the call of the stomach now! There's a world of good cheer in one box of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets-at any drug store, 50 cents,

splendid soprano voice is heard to the best advantage in this opera. She is an American girl wilo has sung all over the English world with marked success and comes back home to win fresh laurels in "The Mimic and the Maid. '" Janet Melville and Evie Stetson, the famous pair of mirth-makers, are also in the cast, where they have wider field for their well-known ability as laugh compellers than ever before, the characterse assigned to them being as- suredly one of MT, Lowe's happiest cre- ations. Dorothy Russell, who promises to reach even higher pinnacle of fame than her gifted mother, Lillian Russell, has a role where her beauty and voice are seen and heard to the best advantage.

The Huttig news., 1907-12-14

We are use to seeing delegations from large trade centers tour the country in the interest of their cities and their various lines of business. But it is a comparative ly new thing to have delegations come from foreign countries with a similar object. Some three dozen Brazilian business men have re- gently come to this country to see how they may better secure trade from us and also to buy from us. This is good thing for more than one reason. It will not only pro- mote commerce between the two countries, which is the immediate object, but it will do much to bring about a better understanding be- tween the United States and the South and Central American na- tions. In spite of efforts made by our statesmen and diplomats those nations are still somewhat suspic- ous of us. To remove that feeling there is nothing equal to a per- sonal acquaintance such as these Brazilian merchants are forming We may be sure that they will go home with a more accurate knoWl- edge of this country. and that vii. produce nothing but good Spec tatOr

SECRET SOCIETIES.

What is the moral effect of Free Masonry, Odd Fellowship, and the numerous secret societies upon the home? Solomon, the wise man, said: Discover not a secret to another,' and he had good reas- ons for laying such an injunction. for in his time, as at the present, there were people too much dis posed to tell all they knew. One half the trouble in every conmuni- ty, comes from the fact that so many people have not tEe capacity to keep their mouths shut. We have two eare but only one tongue which is suggestive of the fact that we should hear more than we tell. By the power of a secret divulged, families. churches, neighborhoods and even nations fly apart. By the power of secret kept, great charities, reformatory movements and Christian enterprises may be advanced
 Where the object is the improve m 9nt of the mind, the enlargement of the heart, the defense of the government, we believe it a bless ing. There is no need that those who plan for right over wrong should publish to the world their intentions. Secrecy of plot and execution are wrong only when the object and ends are Eefarious. Every family is a secret society every business firm and every banking institution. Then men who have no capacity to keep a secret are unfit for positions of trust any where. Secret societies have done incalculable good. Some of the secret societies have poured very Heaven of sunshine and benediction into the homes of suffering. Some of them are founded in fdil'ty to good citizen  ship and the Bible. Christ has given us rule. by which we may judge, not only all individuals. but dll secret societies, By their fruits ye shall know tnem.' Bad soc'et- ies make bad men. Good societies make good men. A lad man will
