Secret of "Norba," the Piano Player, to Bs Revealed Saturday In'the windows of the C. M. Sigler Inc. Piano Store there is being held a novel exhibition for the purpose of dem onstrating player-pianos. It is in the form of a figure either wax or human which for two hoyrs plays continuously a player-piano with a realism so great that those who have viewed f about equally divided opinion. , ,Ju9t as you are sure that the figure is human, something happens to make I you think th:vt it is wax. And if yoa think it is wax. something happens to make you think that it is human. [There's mighty good reason to think both ways, for the work is carried out in such a way as to fool the best. The secret of "Xopba," the figure, will be exposed on Saturday evening at the close of the exhibition, until which time the crowds gathered in front of the store are given the opportunity to registered a guess as to their conviction. The face and the eyes of the figure are absolutely immobile and the features so regular that they couldn't be anything e'.se Out wax. Then again, what's that which makes you think that he is hu man! But the best aud only answer is to see it. Its worth a trip to the store even though you have no interest in registering your guess.

THOUGHT HE HAD ''CHRONIC DYSPEPSIA Bnt Now Eats Corned Beef, Cabbage, Pork* Onions and Mince Pie for Dinner and Never Feels a Pain Do you belong to the "No thank you" lociety of the dinner table where the mere sight of certain foods makes you feel the paiu you know would be yours if you ever ate themf Corn Beef, Cabbage, Pork, Beets, On ions, Turnips, etc., are all good healthy *trengthening foods and a strong, healthy stomach can always digest them. Yet if the stomach kicks back ; nad simply won't work on such strong fare it's folly to fall back on artificial digesters that push the stuff through whether the stomach wills or not. What a weak, easily upset stomach really needs is not a digestive aid but a stomach strengthened Any reliable i physician will tell you it's dangerous to continually dose the stomach with pep sin digesters and the like. His own pre scription will act on the stomach in stead. No physician ever wrote a bet ter stomach prescription than that em bodied in the famous MI-O-NA Stom ach Tablets that H. C. Kennedy and most every other druggist in this vi cinity sells ,with the positive guaran" tec that they must put a complete and lasting end to stomach misety or money back. Mi-o-na strengthens the walls and muscular fibres of the stomach and induces prompt normal working of your own stomach machinery. It gives relief in ten minutes to all the common and uncomfortable symptoms of sour rising, ?[as, belching, burning, bloating, shoot ng pains, etc., and in a few weeks will put the stomach in such a clear and perfectly healthy condition that it can digest a typical New England boiled dinner without the slightest effort or distress. —Adv.
