Don't | think so? Well, dig in and see. The sys- tem craves a stimulant more and more until finally the victim wakes up. When we are as fortunate as Mr. Jgmes D Kimble of Northampton, Mass., to rezlize that we have got to stop or the penaity will be severe, it is a little start- | _ ling at first to consgider.

About four years ago a friend advised me to try Postum Cereal Food Coffee. 1 was loath 1o believe that coffee was the cause of my trouble, therefore I did not have much faith in Postum.

My nervousness graduslly disappeared, the braiy became clear, the loss of strength und flesh arrested and the stomach grad- ually strengthened. Life seemed once more worth living, and the continued use of Postum has not disappointed me. To 'me coffee proved slow poison. I have fcund Postum to be a bullder and sus. tziner o the system, and I heartily rec- ommend it to the slaves of coffee without a single reservation.” Mr. Kimble mentions in his letter many of his friends in Northampton who have 1ccovered health and strength from Fostum on his recommendation. | iliegal cts from the coffee, but its insidious | .

The lcading orators of the State are actively engaged appealing to voters _to uphold the hands of President RoSsevelt by | electing Republican Congressmen and | Assemblymen. They are pointing out the weaknesses of Democracy and impress- ing the people with the need of a contin- uation of prosperity in this country; they are stirring the citizens of the State (o be alive to their own welfare, and their good work is bearing fruit. The Repub- lican State Committee is sanguine of a big victory on November 4.

Alcazar to Begin Run o’ “A Way to Win a Woman” To-Night. Several new and interesting turns were added to the bill at the -Orpheum this week. Evelyn Ormsby, a beautiful young woman, with a rich soprano voice, made her debut as a vaudeville star and made quite a hit. She has a sweet, high- pitched voice and by using care in select- ing her songs she will make herself a popular member of the vaudeville frater- nity. : Rapoll, the wonderful Swiss juggler, made his first appearance in this city and His work is truly marvelous. He juggles spheres in a clever manner and énds his act by jus- gling a heavy wooden wheel and spinning it around at the end of a pole. At the conclusion he lets it drqp on tep of his head, which is protected with armor, and there it spins itself. out. The act is one of the most daring seen here in some time. Carver and Pollard, two comediennes, took the house by storm with their mas- culine comedy work. They are a clever team of girls. they use them often during their act. Doherty's canine circug, introducing fif- teen show-white poodle dogs, opens the show. The wonderful Athos family are still on the bill. Weston and Allen, the emi- nent punsters, appeared in their funny little skit, entitled “The Rent Collector.” Klein, Ott brothers and Nickerson, the great musical team, have changed their repertoire and as usual they made a hit. Hickey and Nelson presented their side- | splitting absurdity, entitled “Twisted and Tangled.” The blograph pictures are new and interesting. PR The second and last week of “King Dodo’" begins this evening at the Colum- bia Theater, and no doubt his Majesty's funnyisms will continue to draw as big crowds during his final hours in San Francisco as on his arrival. King Dodo has met with a royal reception in the city and *in return has done all that a funny Kking could possibly do to make his admir- ers heartily merry. Following “King Dodo” will be that ef. fervescent musical delight, “Florodora which will hold the boards at the Colum- bia on Monday evening, November 3. It met with great success when here before and theater-goers are anxious to see it again, > e 5 Those dainty and clever “Liberty Belles"” at the California continue cne of the the- atrical sensations. They play all this week with a matifiee on Saturday. The house is full every night, and, instead of the popularity of the sparkling opera waning, it looks as if people would Le turned away during the closing nights of the engagement. The Pink Pajama girl apd her winsome associates are of pleas- ing appearance and delightful voice. The refined dormitory scene is of that class of novel ideas that makes a quick hit with the, public. *’The male members of the company are clever singers and actors and the sparkle is never dimmed throughout the whole performance. The scene in the last act representing a Florida beach ho- tel is extremely pretty. “Lost River,” a thrilling melodrama that has played to big business in the East, follows, opening on Sunday night. L Marie Wainwright, supported by . the very excellent stock company of the Grand Opera-house, will present Richard Brinsley Sheridan’s famous and always amusing comedy, “The School for Sean- dal,” this evening and the rest of the week. There is an Irresistible magnetism about the old comedy, and its announce- ment is always read with pleasure by the theater-goer. The comedy will be produced with all the care characteristic of the manage- ment of the Grand. . L Fie, Jerome K. Jerome's comedy, “A Way to Win a Woman,” will be presented at the Alcazar Theater this evening, when the admirable stock company is expected to make good account in the bright whimst- cality. Belasco & Thall have made big preparation for the proper presentation of Jerome's amusing work. 3 PR At the Tivoll Opera-house the Italian Opera Company will render Donizetti's romantic opera, “Linda Di Chamounix,” this evening, also on Wednesday, Friday and Saturday evenings, and on the re- maining nights and Saturday matinee “‘La Boheme" will be the lyric attraction. A i At Fischer's Theater the whirling “Whirl-I-Gig"” and “The Other Way” con- tinue to fill the bill, the audiences never lessening in number or appreciation. On Wednesday afternoon the first of the Zech symphony concerts will be given at Fisch- er's, when fifty-five musiclans will take part in the musieal works. s e At the Central this week that most startling of sensational dramas, “The Great Metropolis,” will hold the boards, the full strength of the Central company appearing in the play. Special attention will be given the exciting shipwreck gcene which it is intended to surround with all the realism possible in a stage prouduction. P The Chutes is offering an unusually strong number of speclalties this week. New animais, that i8 animals that are new to the Chutes, will make their debut, and the life saving incubators will con- tinue to attract the curious. BIG BLAZE BREAKS OUT IN ¥ SIMONS-FOUT BRICK SHEDS Fire Looks Threatening and a Second Alarm Is Quickly Sent In. A fife broke out late last night in the Simons-Fout Brick - Company's sheds, Eighteenth street and Corbett avenue. For a while the fire looked so threatening that a double alarm was sent In. After considerable work on the part of the fire- men the blaze was extinguished, but not before considerable damage had been done. A great crowd congregated in the vicinity and the high flames, flying sparks and thick smoke served to cause consid- erable exciteme German Theatrical Performance.

The £200000 raised last week to meet the treasury bills ap- peared to be easily procurable on the open market and did not result in any marked stiffening of prices. No appli- cations for large loans are being made to the banks, consequently the banks 4 per cent rate has not yet had the effect of raising the market prices. “ The apprehensiveness concerning mone- tary conditions in New York has now fairly subsided. The non-speculative con- dition of the Stock Exchange last week extended into the American department, which relapsed into inactivity in sympa- thy with the great indifference. The very slight damage done to the stock markets in the United States by the late money stringency there has begot remewed con- fidence in American shares, however, and these undoubtedly will continue to be the leading feature in a continuously dull market. SHARES SELL BELOW PAR. Bears Make a Successful Raid on the Berlin Boerse. BERLIN, Oct. 2.—The feature of the Beerse last week was the raid on Ham- burg and North German Lloyd shares, both going below par for the first time in years.

It was stated later that Herr Ballin's ill- ness was not serious. The shares of ocean transportation companies made a partial recovery, Hamburg-American and North German Lloyd both reaching 102 yesterday. Although the trading last week was Lght the coal shares and irons continued dull, and the list shows some heavy drops in this department. The money market last week was again very easy, but domestic loans failed to be influenced by this condition. TUBERCULOSIS CONGRESS.
