The reception given Miss Lillie Hall and her associates in the cast last ev- ening and this afternoon was very cor dial, and evidenced the fact that Miss Hall has a host of warm friends in this city, and that the play had left behind 1t, on its previous appearance, a decided impression. There are still many excellent seats remaining for this evening, but they should be secur- ed as early as possible.
 Miss Cuba Niblo, who takes the
 name part in the dramatization of Charlotte Bronte's celebrated novel of Jane Eyre" to appear here the lat ter half of this week, with daily mat inees, and at popular prices, is an ex- ample of what American pluck and perseverance can accomplish when one is thrown on ones own resources for a living. Unlike many actresses who have attained the prominent place Miss Niblo now occupies on the stage, Miss Niblo was not trained for the stage in her early life, but force of circumstances was such that she turn ed to the stage as a means of not only developing talent which she was sure she. possessed, but also to assist her father in regaining losses sustained in the island of Cuba. And from this isl- and is where she gets her Christian name of Cuba, as she was born there, her father being large tobacco rais- CT, but at the time of the Spanish American war, and the constant gue- rilla warfare incident thereto, his plan tation was soon devastated, and be- coming discouraged he returned to the States and began life over again. Miss N1blo's present high standing in the theatrical profession is the result of profound study of the conditions to be met if one desires to be successful on the stage.
 The phenomenal success of the book play, Quincy Adams Sawyer" is re- beating it's success again this season when crowded houses greet it's every appearance. This popularity is attrib- uted to the preceding fame of the book that extended from ocean to ocean and that the play is in itself the most genuine piece of rural life ever given to the lover of bucolic drama. The simple, pure charm of the book is dis tinctly preserved in the play. The characters are drawn so close to life that 1t requires an effort to be con- vinced that they are not real. They are just such types as. are found in every New England village and DOT trayed by actors who are in perfect sympathy with their roles. In fact, it is case of human nature appealing t o1fun1an nature. Theatre goers are looking forward to the treat in store for them when the play comes here all of next week. with daily naatinees con- Tuesday,

DR. BLUMER HAS LARGE AUDIENCES
 AT WARNER HAL

Dr. L. Blumer gave free treatment to half dozen persons at the second demonstration given by him in Warner Hall yesterday afternoon. Between 95 and 30 people. afflicted with incura hle ills were on the stage and the hall was comfortably filled with spectators. His nrst patient was introduced as Mrs. Calvin of 1854 Seaview avenue. pr. Blumer told the audience that the woman was blind. While talking to the audience the doctor applied his nanos to the woman's eyes and head ana she apparently fell asleep When she was reused a few minutes later she was able to distinguish men from women in the audience.
 Charles Campbell was the best sub 1ect of the afternoon. The left side of his body was evidently paralyzed. He carried a cane and walked with diffi- culty. A few minutes of treatment by pr. Blumer made him feel better, he said. He was able to raise his arm and leg and then rose and walked about the stage without the aid of his cane which he carried over his should CT. He afterwards left the hall with out assistance. his wife carrying the cane
 Annie Towalski of 1125 Hancock ave- nue. IF years old. was unable to move. Her condition was pitiable. The joints or her arms and legs were oss;fied. Dr. Blumer treated her for a few minutes passing his hand over her face and head. She then was able to raise both her hands and also moved her legs.
 R. Revell of 749 Main street, was treated for partial blindness and was able to distinguish objects in the audi ence after a short treatment. All of the patients said they felt better after they were treated. Dr. Blumer evil dently expects opposition from the regular physicians for he called upon the members of the audience to use their influence to prevent the passag ge of a bill in the Legislature which he characterized as a wicked plan to prevent the public from receiving his treatment" He described the medi- cines prescribed by regular phys clans as poison" After the free demon stration was over the doctor invited those on the stage to his rooms for thorough treatment. Dr. Blumer promises that the treatment he gives them will be permanent. While he acknowledges that hypnotism enters into his treatment he asserted that it was not necessary to put his patients to sleep to obtain results.

Taste Is Sure
 Stomach Guide
A Barometer Which Never Fails, Though Seldom
 Believed.

"Taste is the direct guide to the stomach; and the taste buds are con- nected by the nerves with the stom- ach itself, SO that they represent it's health or disorder. If the stomach or it's juices are out of tone, the blood is fermented by a change in the alkaline or acid condition, and these reach the mouth both directly and indirectly.
 "The taste buds are in the tongue, and are mounted by hairlike projec- tions called papillae; they cover the surface of the tongue.
 When you taste these buds rise up and absorb the liquid; inform the nerves; the nerves tell the stomach, and the food is acceptable or not, just as the stomach feels."
 The above remarks on taste come from an eminent authority and sim ply explains why when one smells cooking or sees food one thinks he can eat, but when he tastes he learns the stomach is out of business.
 To the person who cannot taste alright, who relishes no food and sim ply forces himself to eat, Stuart's Dys- pepsia Tablets hold the secret of en- joyable eating, perfect digestion and renewed general health.
 Most men wait until their stomachs are completely sickened before they think seriously of assisting nature.
 When your taste for food is lost it is a certain sign the stomach needs attention. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets cure such storlachs. They restore sweetness of breath, renew gastric juices, enrich the blood and give the stomach the strength and rest neces- sary to general duty.
 Forty thousand physicians use Stu arts Dyspepsia Tablets and every druggist carries them in stock; price soc per box. Send us your name and address and we will send you a trial package free by mail. Address, F. A. Stuart Co.,, 150 Stuart Bldg, Marshall, Itch.
