RELATES FACTS
 OF HIS HEALTH
Bridgeport Man Makes Strong Statement of
 Tonic

MT. c. N. Jones, of 7s7 State street, city, and whose permanent home IS Hartford, Conn.,, made the following statement recently in connection win "Tona Vita," the medicine that IS now being introduced in Bridgeport Jones said: 'I have been nervous and run-down and have had constant stomach trouble.
 .I have never known just what was the matter with me. l slept
 poorly and my sleep did me little time and was always nervous and Respondent. I seldom had good
 appetite and the food I did eat did not agree with me.
 'I got some 'Tona Vita about week ago and have taken it regular equal, to it. The first dose helped me and every day I have become strong CT and better. I now feel like new man, l seem to get nourishment from mysfood and no longer have stomach
 trouble or feel so tired and. depress-
 tonic as the best medicine in the world"
 The specialists who are introduc- ing "Tona Vita in Bridgeport are giving demonstrations of what the medicine will do in five minutes. All
 day long they meet callers at Jennie Hamilton's Pharmacy, where they are located and try to produce a no. ticeable improvement in all cases Of nervous debility within five minutes; the people who take the medicine to be the judge. There; is no charge for this demonstration and several hun dred people tried the experiment re- gently without single failure.
 One of. the specialists said: Tona Vita" will break all records in Bridgeport. People are just begin ming to realize what a great prepara- tion it is. We are instructed by our company to take no, money, for the isfactory. Thousands upon thou sands in this and other large cities are afflicted with general debility, caused by metropolitan life. The en- tire system becomes affected in such cases and nervousness, stomach trOu- ble, headaches, baekaches, despond- ency and loss of vitality result. "Tona Vita will work wonders in such cases in a remarkably short time. If it doesn't we want nothing from those who wish to try it other than the time it takes to come and get the The specialists will be at Jennie Hamilton's Pharmacy, from a. m. to D. m. to meet all callers and eX- plain this new preparation.
 The sale of this new medicine IS now the biggest thing of the kind ever seen in Bridgeport and each succeeding day marks an increase of interest. "Tona Vita" is proving a
 complete revelation to the thousands of half7sick, rundown, listless men and women in the city who did not know exactly what was the matter with them. It would be worth any body's time. to visit the drug store and inspect the large number of testimonials from those who have been benefited by the new tonic and who have undoubted faith in it as a remedy of unusual value.

John R. Booth, last night, to be serv- ed today. This means that MT. Booth has definitely given up the plan of bringing delinquents in on subpoenas before prosecuting. By starting to make arrests MT. Booth intends to show the delinquents that he means business and hopes to once.
 ''L hope that the prosecution of this batch will show the rest that this is no joking matter, and they will come in and pay the tax to MT. Hackett. If they don't respond, however, the law gives me no choice but to go right ahead through the list," said Mir. Booth.
 Instead of being tamely given notice to appear in court or pay up the tax
