also cures nervous headache as I have

Last night before a large audi
ence the Boston Ideal Opera Com
pany presented the gay and
vivacious “Moor’ Bride’’ and ac
quitted themselves well. The
entire opera went through with
a vim and snnn that nlpaspd
Miss Lillian Shattuck makes a
success of the “drinking song. ’’ (
both in singing and acting, and
her good work was appreciated
as it deserved. A. C. Burgess
interpreted Don Bolero to a fin
ish, getting everything possible i
out of that humorous character, i
while Ed Weston as “Maras-J
quine,” Frank Burgess as j
“Mourzouk” and Will Burgess!
as “Pedro” played equally ac
ceptable roles. Miss Kittie Geb
ler as “Aurora” was good and
kept the comedy in evidence
with Mr. Burgess. The chorus
is small but gives a volume of
tone not found in many larger
choruses.—Kansas City Star.

SHERLOCK HOLMES AGAIN.
A New Series of Detective Sto- j
ries in the Kansas City Star, j
Conan Doyle’s detective sto
ries, with the marvelous Sher
lock Holmes as their hero, have
achieved the greatest success of
recent years. Appreciating this
fact, the publisher of Collier’s
Weekly, New York, induced Mr.
Doyle to write a final series of
the great detective’s adventures.
Repeated refusals were followed j
by increased inducements, and j
finally Mr. Doyle agreed to write j
thirteen stories for $45,000, or
abouf 6X cents a word. The en
tire .01 respondence was by ca
ble.
The amount paid by Collier’s is
the largest ever paid for such
work and does not include the
right to publish the stories in,
book form. By special arrange
ment with Collier’s these famous j
stories are being printed in the
Kansas City Star, one story each
week, beginning in the daily
edition of Saturday, February 11,
and in the weekly Wednesday,

Weak
iMi . ... .. ■ '
Stomach.
A weak stomach is most fre
quently caused by the over
worked and exhausted nervous
system.
The power that runs the
stomach is the nerve force sent
to it from the brain through
the nerves. When the nerves
_ - _1.__1- __2. _ J 2.1. .. -_
aiv vvvcirv wi tAuauoicu luv> dujv
ply of energy is insufficient
and the action of the stomach
is impaired, and results in im
perfect digestion—dyspepsia.
Dr. Miles’ Restorative Nerv
ine increases nerve force. It
strengthens and builds up nerve
tissue, gives vigor to the nerves
and muscles of the stomach;
this produces a healthy activity.
Nervine allays the inflamma
tion, heals the membranes, and
makes the stomach strong and
healthy. There is nothing that
so quickly gives energy to the
whole system as Restorative
Nervine.
“I can't say enough for Dr. Miles’
Nervine. I don’t know what it will
do for others, hut it certainly cured me
of stomach trouble, and now I am as
well as I ever was. Two physicians
failed to relieve me. but in three or
four days after taking Nervine I was
much relieved. Four bottles made me
a sound man, at the cost of $4.00.”
