When You Smell the Good Food Csoking And It Makes You Sick It Is a Sure Sign That You Need Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets It Is time to pay attention to your stomach when the sight or the smell of food makes you sick, for were this not the fact the stomach would not cause such disgust upon the par. of the sense of smell and taste when meal time comes around. All the world has to eat. You men who walk to your meals like you do to a drug store for medicine, should at onpe realize that there is a relief for you. This relief is Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. Eiffel \\ The Dyspeptic: "How can a man live In a smell like that?" Taste, sight and smell all have an influence upon digestion. If one eats something that does not taste good one retards the work of digestion be cause the juices necessary to digest the things eaten will not flow in correct proportion. On the other hand, good, food will always excite the taste through ac tual contact with the food in the mouth or through the sight or sense of smell, unless the stomach knows that it cannot digest it. We thus readily learn that the simple act of giving nature the diges tive fluids she needs, will bring back all the joys of good eating, and tast ing, smelling and seeing dainty dishes will excite a rousing appetite. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are com posed of natural ingredients that a worn out digestion simply welcomes with a wild delight. They enrich the stomach Juices quickly so that if you want to eat an out-of-the-ordinary after-the-theater sort of a dinner, just carry a Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablet in your pocket, take it after the meal and you will digest that meal. Your druggist will supply you with a box no matter where you live. Price 50 cents. —Advertisement. E9| | ■ SB mailable. AD ktndi M■ ■ ■ M |l wm suffering and WII ■■ danger.

COLONIAL Vaudeville and Pictures—Every after noon and evening. "BREWSTER'S MILLIONS" To spend a million in a year is the task of "Monty Thompson," and the many ways in which he tries to do so will be shown when "Brewster's Mil lions," comes to the Majestic Theater to-day. matinee and night, for the first time at popular prices, A new production has been especially pre pared for this season's tour, the scenlo equipment will be elaborate and com plete, the same as that shown during Its long run in New York and Chi cago. The company In suport of Louis Nilsen Is practically the same splendid organization that assisted In winning success and fame for the McCutcheon play during the last season.—Adver tisement. "WHERE THE TRAIL DIVIDES" A play that fairly breathes the spirit of the West and which tells a beauti ful love story in a picturesque setting is "Where the Trail Divides." which will be the attraction at the Majestio Theater for three days, Thursday, Fri day and Saturday, with a matinee dally. Robert Edeson, whose "Strongheart" was considered the greatest characteri zation of the American Indian ever pre sented on the American stage. Is the author of the play, and he created the part of "How Lander," an educated Sioux Indian, around whom the story of the play centers.—Advertisement. MRS. FISKH) Mrs. Fiske and the Manhattan eom pany in "Mrs. Dumpstead-Leigh," Is the attraction announced for Thursday, February 19, at the Majestic Theater The play Is a comedy of the most ludicrous type, something that at flrst blush would appear to be about as for eign to Mrs. Flske as anything could be. Considering the wide range of plays in which she has appeared, one would be puzzled to think of a type In which her remarkable gifts had not already been exploited, but the surprises of "Mrs. Bumpstead-Leigh," both as re gards the play and her characterization, are among the chief delights.—Adver tisement. "ON THE EDGE OF THINGS" There are those who will go to the Orpheum this week and be more pleas ed with Homer Miles and companv in "On the Edge of Things" than they will with the fine western novelty novelty called "Cheyenne Days." It, of course, Is a matter of opinion. The com edy drama called "On the Edge of Things" has Itß scene laid on a house top, but that doesn't mean that any body's going to fall over Its edge. It might Just as well be called "Things Nearly Happening." that would at least be more expressive, for If It wouldn't be that the good, simple-natured jani tor comes along just In the "nick" of time, a sweet young girl would have eloped with a worthless youth. The youth Is a young married man In a building adjoining the girl's home, but in crowded New York, the girl does not know he Is married. The "Janitor" of the two buildings knows both and his methods of interference must be seen to be appreciated. Mr. Miles as the "Janitor" Is easily the star of the piece. He plays the character with ease and handles some bright linns that Include much effective slang. The set ting Is realistic and adequate and the cast of players well selected. Bessie Kyle and Harry Richards, in a breezy skit with good songs, and Meredith and "Snoozer," the latter an educated bull dog that Is really wonderful, are some of the other pleasing turns.—Advertise ment. AT THE COLONIAL Another week has rolled around and acordingly we are again due for a night of laughs at the Busy Corner. In con nection with to-night's performances we are to see some new amateur per formers and also witness the "greased pole" contest. Homo good local talent has been secured. The Colonial's bill with the Mendelssohn Four, a singing comedienne, and a song, dance and comedy trio, is pleasing good-sized au diences immensely.—Advertisement. nOLOISTOF MARKET HOUSE [Continued from First Page.] the boyhood days when you wandered through the wood looking for sweet inyrrh and slippery elm. Raber has spent the past thirty-odd years looking for herbs and roots in the mountains. He first took an in terest in finding strange wild plants when as the first nurse at the Harrls burg Hospital in 1873 the doctors on the staff at the time told him about the use of herbs in medicine. Raber was reared in the countrv and knew the woods when he began his studies. As he says, "I learned from the bookB." His method when he finds a plant he doesn't recognize is to mark the spot and return home for his botany book. Then with the plant before him he would find out from the book what it is called and its use. Several years ago Raber moved to this city from his home in the moun tains near Dauphin. He now lives at 446 Boyd street. In the Fall he goes into the mountains for days at a time, searching for the teas and herbs which he sells at his stall in the market. He says he collects from thirteen to four teen thousand bunches of herbs and teas every Fall. These he places in drying rooms at his home and twice a week he displays them on his stall at the market. If you show interest, Mr. Raber will tell you what all these herbs are used for. He knows them, too, for he passed an examination in "herbology" before a college of physicians at one time, he tells you. He speaks bitterly of the fellows who sell the teas and herbs without knowing what they a're good for. "A license should be required of all those who hunt and sell herbs," he says. "You don't know what you are buying from them and they don't know what they sell. It may be poison." Spread before him and hanging be hind him are bunches of sage, sassa fras, wild cherry bark, spigner (for the cold), white mountain willow, pearl maple, golden thread (worth $55 a pound), slippery elm, catnip, sarsa parilla, Iron root (for the blood) and scores more which he has about him in cans and bottles, and for which he has a name and a use. He tells of offers given him by drug gists and patent medicine men to make medicine for them and put water in it to make money. He says he always refused. "I believe that'these herbs are for everybody, and I only ask a price to pay me for the trouble in finding them." And, as you leave these February days, the quaint old man will press on you a root which is a sure cure for a cold. BI'CKET BRIGADE SAVES HOME Special to The Telegraph Piketown, Pa..

Dr. McCuaig said there is a sexual vibration in all contact of the male md female and this contact may be through tho eyes, the handshake or the voice. "The danger lies not in the contact," he said, "nor in the vibration which results, but in the accentuation of them as in the modern dances. A girl or boy rightly taught would be in i>o danger, as these extremes would have no attraction for them." He spoke of the folk dances and expressed his belief that, these old fashioned. healthful dances might be the solution to the dance problem of to-day. In speaking of the mother's care of her daughter he warned the mother against teaching the girl to dress so that the growing charms of body are accentuated. "I cannot conceive," he admonished, "how a mother can so dress her daughter that she is a lure to men and an Incitement to their worst passions." He told the mothers that they should try to develop in their daughters the home instinct. "The girl should be taught that motherhood is the crown ing glory and blessing of life and that homemaking and housekeeping are tho greatest achievements of woman hood," said Dr. McCuaig. He declared in conclusion that mawkish love stories and emotional plays dealing with the "social tri angle" are most dangerous, as they give girls untrue Ideas of life and cannot help Jiut warp their vision as to social realities, and that the prac tice of allowing young girls to be on the streets after night is extremely dangerous. To-night Dr. McCuaig will lecture on "The Voice of God" and to-morrow afternoon he will talk on "Heredity."
