The original comedy Mam'zelle" ap-
in the hrst Of three performances to be
given here. An average sized audience
witnessed the production and laughed
heartily at some of the many sensa-
lions sprung in rather promiscuous
way and in a rther rough house man
ner.
There Is nothing in particular to COM
mend the show; either the play itself
(if 1t can be called one) or the acting.
although some Of the numbers were
heartily encored. As productive of
surprises, however, 1t can be COM
mended to those who desire to have
their nerve centers eniivened.
There Is to be a matinee this after
noon and night performance at the
usual time.

How far the necessary curtaiiment
of railroad expenditures which must
result for the time being will affect the
general business Of the country, can
not foretell.
1T is possible the railroads have
been extravagant In their expendi-
lures. They could possibly have linn
tied the cost of terminals: but every
city in the land was demanding of
the railroads that their terminal facili-
ties should not alone be adequate to
meet transportation problems. but
should be of character ornamental

IT'S FOOD
That Restores and Makes Health

There are stomach specialists as
well as eye and ear and other special
lists.
One of these told young lady Of
New Brunswick, N. j., to quit medi-
cines and eat Grape Nuts. She says:
For about IL months suffered Sc
verely with gastritis- I was unable to
retain much OF anything on my stom-
ach, and consequently was compelled
to give up my occupation.
Il took quantities Of medicine and
had an idea / was dieting, but 1 con-
tinued to suffer and soon lost 15
pounds in weight. I was depressed
In spirits and lost interest in every
thing generally. Ny mind was SO af-
fected that 1t was impossible to be-
come interested in even the lightest
reading matter.
After suffering for months decid-
ed to go to a stomach specialist He
began to improve Immediately. It
was the keynote of a new life.
Il found that had been eating too
much starchy food which did not d.
gest, and that the cereals which /
had tried had been too heavy. I soon
proved that it is not the quantity Of
food that one eats, but the quality.
In a few weeks / was able to 70
back to my old business of doing
clerical work. / have continued to
eat GrapeNuts for both the morning
and evening meal. I wake In the
morning with clear mind and feel
rested. I regained my lost weight In

The wonderful timber Of her perfect

for her to make each character stand
forth boldly and distinctly. It was
truly a wonderful performance and
quite the most beautiful dramatic
reading that Pensacola audience has
ever heard.

each one until the very impressive
close of the last act.

parts of Worcester County assembled
at Mr.. A. C. Rilcy's farm on the stone
road last Tuesday afternoon to witness
the demonstration of blasting with
dynamite by the +. |. dupont Nemours

moved by blasting. and the experiments
along these lines we're regarded as sue

to the failure Of some part of the bat
