Fluffs, Crimplng Pins and Unex.

As Miss Nora Perry reports the following
confidential chat among merry party of girls
In her new book "The Tragedy of the Unex-
pected," We violate no confidence in giving it
to our readers:
How do you get your hair into such love
ly fluff" inquired a brunette of blone.
"Why, roll it up into curls, and then just
pass a coarse comb through it, But yours is
lovely, too, I'm sure. How do you do yours?"
Roll it on heated slate pencil"
.t,h. but that hurts the hair SO. put mine
into crimping pins" said another.
And still another; 81 braid mine and press
it,"
And still another Common hair pins, I
thinlare the best Of all. But thenone looks
so like fury in any pins"
Then the brunette gave giggle.
ooh, girls, 1 put mig hair into pins once
those great crimping pins Lou uses. 1t was
one morning when it rained, and thought
was safe from visitors. ! was going to the OPP
era in the evening, and wanted to look very

never heard the bell nor footstep until some
one crossed the threshold. Who do you sup

itself in Persian muff to smother another

the other four voices in the greatest excite

Up came the head from its temporary hiding,
the pretty face all a blush, the dark eyes all
a-dazzle with laughter, the frizzed hair lit
tie the worse for the Persian muff.
"Oh, girlsl it was Will Hess with Langford
-Langford just home from Paris, you knowl'
"What did you do?" from the chorus of
four.
"Oh, didn't die, and couldn't run away:

Among the many specifics introduced -

a general weakness of the human system,
within few years, decoctions OF vegetable
bitters have held considerable place. Sol.,.,
of these have for time had a considerut j.

much injury. Such should never be ta$ga
into the human body Often bitters l.,.ve
been made highly popular for time BY be-
ing largely charged with whisky and oiAer
spirits, thus ministering to depravcd apna-
tite. In this way the medicinal purpose FOR
which they were avowedly offered to tie
public has been missed, and sale to which
they attained before their true character was
thoroughly known has completely fallen
away. The writer in his visit to Rochester
has had the pleasure Of meeting with mop
Bitters," an entirely different compound
from those alluded to. 1t is five years since
their merits were brought before the public
and they have steadily increased In favor
until they are, without question, the mot
popular and valuable medicine known. The
exceeding instrinsic value of their leading
components is in no way destroyed or lessen
ed by the deleterious quality OF any other
ingredient They contain, along with the
purest hops, buchu, mandrake and dan1e-
lion, other medicines recognized as possess
ing the most effective curative properties
They are especially beneficial to cergymen:
lawyers, literary men and all those subjected
to the strain of mental labor. They cure al
most every disease of the stomach. liver,
kidneys and urinary organs For nervous
ness and all its attendant ailments they are
never.faiiing remedy, giving tone to all the
organs where formerly there was feebleness
and an all-prevailing feeling of weakness.
They have attained to an immense sale,
which is the surest proof of their successfully
meeting the wants of the people. We have
seen letters from old established chemists
testifying to this, and others from private
individuals, stating that after they had had
the services of the most distinguished incdi-
cal men without any benefit. they expert
enced perfect relief from their bad com
plants by the use of these invaluable hittcrs.
They discharge their curative powers with,
out any of the evil effects of other bitters.-
