CIVIL ENGINEER
 KNOWN TO MANY
Now In Bridgeport with View of Establishing
 Office

Albert E. Harper, prominently known as a civil engineer, who is now in Bridgeport with view of estab- fishing @ branch office for a well known contracting and constructIoH company, made the following state ment yesterday in connection with "TOna Vita" a new tonic that is now being introduced with such great suc- cess in Bridgeport
 While in Detroit, Mich, a few weeks ago I happened to be in a drug store where they are holding a dem onstration of this tonic, just as they are doing here in Bridgeport. I spoke to one of the specialists in the store and he told me that had nervous de- bility. I purchased a bottle of this tonic and it helped me almost from the very start. I can only say that I believe it to be the best tonic of it's kind on earth, and that 1t has made a new man of me.
 I have been in very poor health the past three years, being under the care of physicians most of the time. My condition grew gradually. worse and during the past six months it has been hard for me to work at all. l didn't eat we'll or sleel we'll, and had no energy at all My work as civil engineer requires my standing a good ly portion of the time, and often it seemed that my back would break. I nave often been IOrced 10 Sit down. I had sallow skin and had no life in me. My stomach was in bad shape and I suffered with intense nervous ness. I would become startled at the slightest noise and my heart would beat rapidly at the slightest exertion. '
 MT. Harper was a victim of nervous debility. "Tona Vita" means posi- tive and immediate relief from this complaint. Nervous debility is pro duced in thousands by the strain of modern methods of living. The chief symptoms are as follows: Lack of energy, stomach trouble, nervousness, depression of spirits, sleeplessness, lit tie vitality, headaches, dull pains in the back. poor circulation, cold feet dizzy spells and uneasy sleep. Any individual suffering from the above symptoms is victim of nervous de bility To such a person, ''Tona Vii ta' is invaluable. It is now being demonstrated by Jennie Hamilton'a Pharmacy, 909 Main street, where the specialists will meet all callers be- tween the hours of a. m. to g D. m.
 Lees Rhubarb Laxative, the assist an tremedy. is invaluable as fam ily medicine in overcoming chronic constipation. It is especially useful for children as the taste is very pleas ant.

One lone man attended the exercises and he was greatly relieved when the gen. and gained admittance. He diStrib- uted pop corn balls and listened to the demand of the little ones who told him what they wanted for Christmas. The most surprising part of the pro- gram came when Santa threw open the window of the assembly room where the exercises took place and stalked out upon the roof of the build ing. It Is supposed that he made his way to terra firma by way of the fire escape. The whole affair was arrang- ed by the teachers of the different schools, and was creditable piece of work.

Wood, Eulenna Winton, Henry Lines, A. Moore, Harry Hotch- kiss. Herbert Aufford. c. Carpenter. R. Whiton, and a .bevy of five girles who furnished an interesting lullaby called Christmas Snow Flakes

MORE THAN ENOUGH IS TOO
MUCH.

To maintain health, a mature
man or woman needs just enough
food to repair the waste and sup
ply energy and body heat. The
habitual consumption of more food
than is necessary for these purposes
is the prime cause df stomach
troubles, rheumatism and disorders
of the kidneys. If troubled with
Indigestion, revise your diet, let
reason and not appetite control and
take a few doses of Chamberlain S

will soon be all right again. For
