Seolds1veet oranges n11d grape
 fruit are s1Ueet They are widely noted for their unusually hieii sugar content
 In fact, Sealdsweet fruits need little if any sugar to make them palatable.
 These luscious food-fruits of Florida arc unsur. passed in flavor as well as in sweetness. The juice has a food value that makes the liberal and varied use of these fruts source of household economy. Sealdsweet oranges and grapefruit fully rpened on the trees, possess tonic properties which render them highly useful in maintaining and restoring health. Because they are 50 full of sweet juice Sealdsweef fruits offer you full valne for the money you are asked to pay for them. Your grocer or fruit dealer can supply you and will do so if you insist.
 This is the fourth in series of eight ad-
 vertisements each emphasizing one of the

AT DAVIS THEATER TupohIa In

Weather conditions made no differ ence with standing room only house at the Davis theater Friday night to see and hear Tumble In, q musical comedy, although they resulted in the first curtain not going up till nearly 3 o'clock, owing to the late arrival of the troupe and the scenery. The com pany had been since 6 in the morning getting from Middletown and did not reach here till nearly 5.30 D, n.. and the scenery could not be shifted to the theater in time to start the show at the ordinary hour.
 Those who heard the sparkling catchiness of the songs did not need to be told the music was by Rudolph Friml with book and lyrics by Otto Harbach. The play was presented by Arthur Hammerstein in conjunc- tion with Selwyn Co. and the story brings out the title at the end of the first scene, when the chorus makes a pretty stage picture when they appear enyeloped in comforta- bles wrapped around their fiuttery filmy pajanlas in which they are pre- pared to tumble in" as they pile their comfortables on the stage floor for a bed.
 The big hits with the big house were made in the second act by a comedy vamping scene by Edna Hib- bard, John Phi1brick, Eleanor Will Hams and Charles Knowlden, with another favorite coming right after ii in the quartette by Miss Ada Meade Miss Hubbard, Carl Mccullough and Mir. Philbrick, in the Laugh song, fol which they received encore after en- core. Miss Meade was decidedly clever in her role which had much to do with supposed spooks and MT Philbrick was a Comedian who got the house with him all through the second act and could not give encores enough for his song, The Argentines the Portuguese and The Greeks.
 Speciality dances by Miss Olgs Mishka, whose repertoire included Russian ballet and toe dancing, made some of the finest that has been seer at the Davis.
 Other musical numbers that wera favorites were Limbo Land by Miss Meade, I've Told My Love, by Miss Hubbard, and The Thoughts That ] Wrote on the Leaves of My Heart, by Miss Hubbard and MT. Knowlden

It was voted to admit Joseph Baker, Junior, of Holland, provided he remove thither and set up his trade as a blacksmith near the meeting house."
 Many more interesting columns could be written in regard to this good old town but I will not take any more of your valuable space except to quote the following copy of "com- plaint," dated 18th June, 1787, show ing. how such matters were managed at that time: as
 "po Samuel Carver, Esq, a Justice of the Peace for Bolton, Holland coun- tV and State of Conn. comes John Skinner Junior, one of the Tything men of said Town of Bolton in his owil person and under oath and com plans in the name of the authority of this state of Ozias Humphrey of olInSDufy In ddFlIOrQ county TOT that the said Ozias not having the Fear of God before his eyes - and being thereto moved by the indignation of the devil was guilty of breaking the Sabbath or Lords Day being on the 27th day of May 1787 by Laughing and Smiling and other unbecoming car riages in the Meeting House in the North, Society of Bolton in said County in time of Public Worship on said day-All of which is against the Law of God and this state and to the very evil example of others and prays that the said Ozias Humphrey may be dealt with as the Law Directs.
