Rad Habits

Those who breakfast at eight O..
clock or later, lunch at twelve and
have dinner at six are almost certain
to be troubled with indigestion. They
do not allow time for one meal to
digest before taking another. Not
less than five hours should elapse be-
tween meals. If you are troubled
with indigestion correct your habits
and take Chamberlain's Tablets, and
you may reasonably hope for quick
recovery. These tablets strengthen
the stomach and enable it to perform
it's functions naturally. Obtalnable
everywhere.

The Pastime theatre was packed
until standing room was at q prem

nights, the people flocking to see
William Irvine Fayssoux perform his
hypnotic stunts. Mr.. Fayssoux is the
cleverest hypnotist that has visited

the hundreds who saw him. He hyp-
noticed a number of local subjects
each night and after putting them
to Sleep made them. perform many
stunts that brought forth much
laughter He made some of the young
men think they we're girls-courting
girls-roosters, clowns, and, in fact
most anything he wished. When he
would wake the boys to find them
selves out in the audience crying
peanuts for sale or crying for their
mother in pitiful manner they were
much amazed, as were those who
