RICH RED BLOOD
Means Rosy Cheeks, Clear Complexion,
 Bright Eyes and Plenty of Energy

Means Rosy Cheeks, Clear COmplexiOn,
 Bright Eyes and Plenty of Energy
 What does rich, red blood mean? It means brains. vitality, ambition, hope fulness, persistency, and everything worth living for.
 But you can't have rich, red blood, if your digestion is imperfect; and your digestion is certainly imperfect, if you have sour stomach. bad taste in mouth, lump of lead after eating. belching of gas and nervous unrest. So far reaching is the effect of indi- gestfon, that many times the eyesight is affected.
 If you have indigestion on any symptom of stomach distress or agony all druggists will sell you mighty remedy for 50 cents, and guarantee it to cure or money back.
 The remedy is called Mi-o-na- Its powerful. reconstructive action on the stomach is little short of marvellous. It tones up, strengthens and puts new life and energy into the worn out stomach in a few days. It cures by removing the cause. If you are a sufferer, try a large 50 cent box. It's a small price to pay for banishing in digestion.
 Mi-ona is sold by leading druggists in every town in America, and by all druggists in Bridgeport for 50 cents a box.

CLEANING CHINATOWN
Lichi Minnie Argues it Out With Capt.
 Mike Calvin on Moving Day.
New York Sun.)

(New York Sum-
 Lichi Minnie sat on the edge of her bed and argued it out with Capt Mike Calvin.
 'So you weren't thinking anything of moving?" queried Calvin with sar- casm.
 Moving? Say. quit your kidding, Cap What put it into your pan that I was going to mover Lichi Minnie smiled broadly up at the captain of reached under her pillow for cigar cite.
 Where were you when I came around here two nights ago?' Cap. visiting friends in the Back Bay district. I just got back this morn ing''
 Calvin bit off a. grin.
 ''So nobody's given you the tip that today is moving day for all you girls in Chinatown: that it's a case of git today or the Island for a rest up? Come now, get a truck and beat it with your furniture while the suns
 Lichi Minnie feigned to be. startled i; then after casting glance up at the captain she grinned again and came down to hardpan.
 "I give it to you straight, Cap" said Minnie with earnestness, 'T can't move because I'm cleaned-cleaned an not an iron dollar in the sugar can. Give me a quarter to get to Coney Island ; I'll blow before another hour.''
 Calvin cast a glance at two glisten- ing stones in Minnie's ears, another at the furniture. Then he said that Lichi Minnie was better heeled than he was.
 Take the rocks to Levy's," said he. They're worth fifty if they're right. You can get another fifty on your fur niture."
 Minnie screamed shortly:
 Why, Cap, you wouldn't have me hook my rocks. They're my front, Cap. They're all the front I've got. An the furniture-I've been paying 50 cents a week on that for three years, an it ain't one-third paid for. Go easy, Cap, go easy"
 Capt. Calvin took out his watch sig nificantly. He pointed to the figure XII

THE THEATRES
---- SMITH

"A dollar show for dimer That's what they all say of the big vaude- vile show which is being provided at Smiths afternoons and evenings, and they are about right. It certainly is the biggest thing in the way of amusement which has ever been given in this city, for the money, and the only fault with it is. that there's too much of it for little price. There's B nothing old but the ocean, at Dream land, and here there's nothing cheap but the price. The people can scarce ly be made to believe that they are getting so much for their money until they have seen the show, and even that there's no further charge for any thing.
 Warren & Broadway. in their mu- sical sketch, s'The Musical Janitor,' ,' are the hit of the program for this week. They have a clever sketch, and their work is of the most satis- flying order. Their comedy is bright and fresh, and always clean, and keeps the audience in roar of laughter.
 The Sisters Cardownie, the interna- tional dancers, are no strangers to this city. having appeared here a number of times in connection with the big musical comedies. They are premiers in their line, and their act alone is decidedly an attraction.
 Another clever offering is the ec- centric comedy sketch of Cunningham & Devery, who are skflful dancers, and who keep an audience alive every minute they are on the stage. Miss Devery is a pretty little Frenchwo- man. and she certainly knows how to use Ter feet to good advantage.
 Italia, "the girl who writes her own songs, Is another valuable member of the present bin, and she gives an excellent account of herself. She sings we'll. and her dancing is of the pre- mier order.
 A novel act is that presented by Ed Estus. the eQuilibrist, who performs feats of lofty hand balancing which hold an an audience spell bound. MT. Estus is becoming a favorite with the audiences, and receives a warm well come at every appearance.
 Those daily matinees at 2:15 are be- coming very popular with the ladies and children. The little ones are ad- mitted afternoons at half price, and they are availing themselves of the privilege in large numbers. The ev- ening performances commence pre- cisely at 7.15, and run continuously until about 10:30. You can drop in at any time, and stay as long as you please.

Girls Must Wear
 Their Own Hair

St. Louis, June 3-Members of the senior class of Hosmer Hall. a fash ionable girls school, are greatly griev- ed over an announcement by Miss Louise McNair, the principal. that any young woman who appears with false curls at the commencement exercises will not receive her diploma. Many members of the class had purchased curls and puffs for the event.
 Miss McNair was aroused against false hair at the commencement exer- -cises of another school for girls. Her horror at the deception, which was genuine, was aggravated by imperfect matching of the false and the true on some heads of the graduates.

 For Alleged Libel

Boston, June 3.-Dealing with a wide range of subjects. from city politics in 1905 to the burning of witches in Sa- lem, Henry s.

 Since the filing of the first. writ in the suit two years ago, the damages have been raised twice, and now Judge Dewey seeks to place the figures at $76, 100000. Judge Dewey asked that the members of the jury be polled as to their religious beliefs.
