"EIis Honor the Mayor'' st the tsrand.
 His Honor the Mayor" at the Grand last night more than lived up to all the good things that have been sail about the show. Possibly there Is no play on the boards this season with such choice assortment of good mu- sic so we'll rendered, The play is teem. from start to finish. Is bewildering swirl of laughs and absurd scenes.
 Little Chip seems to grow younger every day. and is delivering the goods in larger and larger packages. Mary Marble is just as good as ever, and the laugh that made her famous still has the same, infectious ring
 They are supported by an exception ally pleasing set of fun makers and certainly those who were not present last night missed a treat. The music alone would put the entertainment in the first class and every line of it is new in this part of the world.
 Besides the music, there are a num- Der of dancers than whom there are no, better. and best of all there is not Q honely girl in the whole show. That Is one thing Chip and Miss Marble have always Insisted on from the day they started Jake Wells fortune several years ago in Richmond. Va. when the present Southern circuit mogul was taking his first tottering steps In stage land.
 There is not dull moment in His Honor the Mayor" and the only regret Is that he IS not life-oficial In Montgomery.

But one criticism could be made of the modus operandi of The Grand allowing late corners to disturb the people. who do not think enough of the show and the comfort of others. to get there in time. If the rule to make late arrivals stay behind the seats until the curtain is down were adopted there would be many grateful hearts among the pat ronY of the house.

PEPSIN CANNOT
 CURE DYSPEPSIA Recent Tests Define Its Limitations ACTS eELg IN STOMACH 1ntsstiues Seat of Most obstruc' tion and Fermentation. P.Us.n Acts only in Acid MeasumIa asusI 1uteEtines Are Alkaline In
 Reastion. 

If ia now becoming generally knowp To ohvsicians that the extended prs valeLce of indigestion and dysrepsie' and tho anDarent IuabiHsy or tne medl- cal professaon at large to deal with them, is in a large part due to the ex- aggerated importance attached to Pep sin in the treatment of this class of maladies. Pepsin, 1t has been found. will act only in an acid medium Aka Unity destroys its value. On the other hand. the intestines, he function of which is to select the nourishment and eliminate the waste, are always aka line in reaction, Consequently, where there is Fermentation and gas la the Intestines, Pepsin Is absolutely Inert and Valueless.
 In order that this poison and waste matter be thoroughly eliminated, in- stead of being given out by the intes- tines to spread disease through the system, 1t is necessary that the fer. mentation be checked, and the forma- ton of poisonous gases stopped,
 It is important and gratifying, to know that any good neutraiizing mix ture will do this. One of the best of these can be made up as follows: 1-2 oz sodium phosphate, OF. essence of sealmint, 1-2 teasponful good baking soda, enough water to make 8 ounces. Dose: two teaspoonsful before each meal.
 It is said that this mixture acts di- -rectly upon the intestines, correcting acidity, checking fermentation, and placing them in proper condition to re- ceive fresh chyme from the stomach.
 It would have been we'll if these facts had been generally known long ago. Cut this out and save it. You may need 1t, and any druggist can make you thIs neutralizing mixture, or you can mix 1t yourself at home.
