This romark ts heard not only In hotels, restaurants and lunch rooms but It Is the usual breakfast order In the home clrcla as well. After a twelve hours' fast It would stem that tho first meal of tho day should bo hearty, substantial one, aud It wo all Hvsd natural, unartlllclal lives, It would bo so, but cono of us do, honco breakfast Is a mere pretence. i Bays a latter day philosopher: "During mauy years of aotlvo business life, I uever remember having eaten a good substantial 'breakfast but supposed It was ot no Im portance until I began to lose appetlto for lunch and dinner. My physician told me I was tho victim ot nervous dyspepsia aud must take rest and recreation as no medicine would reach the trouble, but (his advlco I could not follow as my business affairs would not permit It, and to get relief I resorted tn raedtclues iand prescriptions and It was purely acciden tal that I bit upon one remedy which did tho business. While In a drug store ono evening I noticed a number of pople buying Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, a widely adver tised preparation for stomach troubles, and thn tores of example was loo rauih for mo end I bought a fitly rent package. I took a tablet or two after each meal, nnd In a week my appetite picked Up, I began to fl my old ambition for work returning and could eat a good breakfast because I wanted It. and from that time to this, I take Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets ns regularly ,as I lake tuy meals, not because I now have any tnubl with my stomach, but becauie J don't want In haw A llfty-ceat box of Stuart's Tbles will list me a mtnth and keep my digestion In acoJ wrJv, sod know of no betur Invest tutal a .uslnrsi- tva can make. and n few friends.

On Wednesday evening Mr. nnd Mrs. Potter w Oman's ork fyrv It thero has been any doubt In tho minds ot tho citizens and various Young Pcoplo'a (octettes that havo been supporting the chlldron's Industrial classes in the four mission ittatlons, under tho direction of tho, city missionary, Miss Mageo, that Omaha Is deriving a practical, dally benefit from theso classes, such doubts would have been entirely dlspellod by the sceno pre sented at Tenth street city mission, bo tween 4 and C o'clock on Friday afternoon. Two distinct branches of children's work aro being carried on at that mission. The boys' scientific tcmporanco classes, under tho direction ot Mrs. Shlnrock, supported by tho Woman's Christian Temporanco union, nnd tho Industrial classes, under Miss Mageo, supported by private sub scriptions, the young people's societies and tho Woman's club. When theso classes wero opened tn tho fall ono of the most serious problems that confronted the teach ers was tho spirit of antagonism and con stant quarreling among tho boys and girls, which made It Impossible to conduct boys' and girls' classed In the building at tho samo time. To overcome this and teach the boys gallantry and the girls the neces sity nnd value ot womanly dignity, have beon nmong tho chief efforts ot tho teach ers. To what extent they have succeeded was a surprise, even to thorn, when on Friday afternoon the boys' temperance classes gave a tea party to tho girls of tbo Industrial classes. It was not without much mlaglvlnc that Mrs. Shlnrock do elded to undertake this eoclal experiment, but Us result proved far beyond whnt had even been hoped for. At the appointed hour tho children nrrlved, sixty of them, about equally divided boys and girls, the majority ot them being colored and ranging In age from 5 to It).

Tho dishes of tho kltchcngnrtcn classes were used and thorn was enough to serve but half of the chil dren at n time. When all was ready tho honds wero bowed and Mrs, Shlnrock nsked a bleslng, perfect quiet being maintained. Six of thn boys then camo forward and dis tributed tho plates among the glrU, their KU'sts. while the others quietly looked on, their faces expressing mingled satisfaction and anticipation. The same boys colleato.l tho plaice Jd cups when the repast was finished ' carefully prepared them for thn second tilling. A whispered consulta tion rrsultrd In a request by four of the kltchengarten glrls-that they be allowed to apply to the principals of their classes and erve the boys. This was granted with most gratifying results. At the closo of the hour the children were dismissed, all passing out save a few boys and girls, who remained to wash tho dishes nnd put tho room In order. The teachers consider that hour a most remarkable proof of what ts being accomplished, The value of an Institution that has so transformed these children la begtnlng to entertained about fifty guests at cards.
