She Has a winning Way.

A handsome young woman is a

and successful one, too; SO much so
that member of the Board of Edu-

method. Her answer was worthy of
note.

language. but her method has proved
a success.
The same teacher mas a class of
boys and girls ranging from nine to
twelve, and during their closing exer-
cises they all did well, but some were
derserving of particular commenda-
tion. Their youthful teacher did not
stop to weigh her words, but at once
said enthusiastically
Il am proud of you, Some of you
did so we'll could hug you"
Whereupon blue eyed youth with
a roguish smile responded
Me, first, please, teacher. "-Detroit

with or without Gloves.

With or Without Gloves
Some one has declared that, as a
rule, one regrets more having ap-
peared ridiculous than having done
wrong. Marion Harland expire sses
the opinion in Housekeepers' Weekly
that, uncomplilnentary as is this COM
ment upon human natures moral
courage, it contains mora than one
grain of truth. She says:-"There is
no more bitter smart than that of
wounded vanity, and the sense of
having been over or underdressed is q
modification not easily forgott en-.
Vino of us cannot recall some such ex-
perience, the recollection of which
causes her cheeks to burn. In nearly
all similar cases the hostess is to
blame, in that she does not specifically
state what kind of an entertainment
she proposes to give. If full dress is
expected she should not insist that
it is a very informal affair.""
The bonnet and glove question is
one of the most perplexing points in
the etiquette of costume. The author
ity already quoted discusses it as fol
lows
One society woman confesses to me
that her life is burdened by the prob
lem-with or without bonnets? gloves
or no gloves?
At lunch it is always according to
rule to retain ones bonnet. This is
an accepted law of etiquette, and the
hostess should not insist upon the re-
moval of the headcovering. If guest
remains unexpectedly to meal she
may not be sufficiently sure of the
orderly condition of her hair to care
to display it-as, in spite of care, locks
will become disordered by drive or
walk through the open air, and un-
der these conditions hat is boon.
Indeed, at the present day, a bonnet
is worn at almost any daylight enter
tainment-that is. at teas. lunches and
at lat home" In the evening dress
bonnet is quite in keeping at recep-
tions. But at an evening dinner it is
not to be worn.
Fortunately, so far as gloves are
concerned, forewarned may be fore
armed. A woman can always wear
them into the parlor, and it she finds
herself in minority, they may quietly
be drawn off and deposited in the
depths of her pocket, Gloves must
be worn to a large dinner and remov ed
after one is seated at the table.

A Business Announcement.

The managers of THE JERSEY CITY
NEWS have determined to discontinue
the publication of the Sunday edition
with the close of the old year. Here
after, therefore, THE SUNDAY MORN
ING NEWS will not appear. The
reason OF the change is that on ac-
count of the great expense of prepar-
ing the Sunday edition on its present
scale, it does not contribute in proper
ratio to the income of the property
All the leading special features of
the Sunday paper will henceforward
be found in the daily. The Church
News and Lodge Notes will appear
every Saturday; the Social Review
and Notes will be published every
Friday; the Theatrical Column will
be feature of Mondays paper. The
Fashions, Club Gossip, "Os and
Macs" Wheeling and Bowling Chat,
who Can Tell 7" and other attractive
features will be published from time
to time as material justifies.
Every department of THE JERSEY
CITY NEWS will be remodelled and
improved with the opening Of 1892. A
great quantity of original matter will
be added to the "Women's Column
The sporting news will be made even
more q feature than at present, numer-
GUS special articles being contem-
plated to add to its interest. Much
attention will be given to cable, tele-
graph and State news, while local
matters of interest will be treated
with the same independence and am-
plitude which have always been
characteristic of The JERSEY CITY
NEWS.
During the session of the Legisla-
ture the daily Trenton dispatches
will be the leading feature of the
paper. As OF old. this special cores
pondence will distance all competi-
tors.
The managers of THE NEWS take
this opportunity Of wishing their pat
rons and readers and all Jersey citi-
Gems a happy and prosperous New
Year, and to give assurances that in
the future, as in the past, they will be
always found working in the in terest
of the city and its people.

WITH the aid of a huge steam
dredging shovel which had been
loaded on top of car of the Long
Island Railroad, three bridges were
torn down at Jamaica last night. The
water and gas pipes were broken and
the village partly flooded and
shrouded in darkness. The affair was
densely stupid, first in loading such a
machine on car that would not go
under the bridges, and ag ain in not
stopping when the first bridge was
wrecked. Fortunately the Foolkiller

Habit Beats the Bishop.

During the session of the Methodist
conference one of the ministers went
into drug store about dusk on chilly
evening and asked the proprietor for a
good, mild cigar. After paying for it
he added:
SIS there any place around your store
where can have quiet smoke? Our
bishop has just been preaching pretty
sharply against the use of tobacco, SO |
don't want to smoke round the house
where I am staying, nor out in the
street, on account of the bad example l
might set. But mild cigar does rest
one sol"
The druggist quite agreed with him
and said
''Step behind my prescription counter,
sir; you will be unseen there"
Two minutes later another good min
lister came into the store, bought mild
cigar and asked if he might be permit
ted to smoke in the store, because:
Sour bishop has just been preaching
against smoking" he explained, almost
in the exact words Of his predecessor.
He also was sent behind the prescrip-

Effect of a Fairy Story,

Alice Denning, the daughter of Will
ismsbridge dairy farmer, is just five
years old, and her baby brother, not yet
ehristened, has owned an identity the
same number of weeks. AS is customary
under such circumstances, Alice viewed
the infants advent with marked disap-
proval, and listened with gloomy silence
when her mother endeavored to arouse
her interest and satisfy her curiosity by
telling her that the little boy had been
found lying under currant bush, where
the good fairies had placed him. Her
father even showed her the bush, behind
the barn, where the child had been dis
covered.
Alice remembered that last spring a
bluebird had Matched out family in the
orchard. She had taken one of the
young birds, while it was still in state
of nudity, and brought it into the house,
. but Mrs. Denning had made her take it
: back to the nest and restore it to its
parents. She had committed that lesson
faithfully to heart.
On recent morning the baby disap-
peared. Luckily babies of that age are
soon missed, and as he was not in the
house Mrs. Denning, in great alarm,
went out to find Alice, thinking that the
little girl had taken him. Alice was
cautiously peeping around the corner of
the barn, intently watching the currant
bush that her father had pointed out to
her, and under its boughs, where the
fairies had formerly deposited him, the
baby, well wrapped up in blanket, was
lying asleep on the snow. Alice ad-
mitted that she had placed him there
hoping that his first guardians would
take him back, as the bluebird had re-
ceived its returned nesting last year

Koch's Consumption Cure.

1t cannot yet be said that the exact
status of Koch's remedy is fixed; nor can
we even yet say with certainty that this
much heralded cure is destined to sur
vive among established methods at all.
The most that is claimed for it by its
most ardent advocates is that it seems
capable of depriving the bacillus of the
material in which it thrives best-i. e.,
of disintegrating and destroying tuber-
culous tissue. There has been no claim
that it has any direct effect upon the ex-
istence of the bacillus, nor that it, hav-
ing deprived the bacillus of its food,
tends in any way to remove that parasite
from the body, and thus to eliminate the
possible source of danger of subsequent
or more general infection.
Under its influence in some forms of
local tuberculosis especially of the skin
it has been shown that tissue which
was of the very lowly organized variety
characteristic of the disease has been at
first in part and then wholly replaced
by tissue of higher organization, and
one that is likely to be permanent. In
regard to tuberculosis of the lungs,
there can be no question that improve
ment in the patients general condition,
and also evidence of improvement at the
site of the disease have followed the use
of this remedy. The general improve
ment manifests itself by gain in
weight, lessening in fever, increased ap-
petite, better sleep. The local improve
ment is surmised from certain changes
to be observed by auscultation and per-
cussion. together with diminution in
the severity of the cough and in the
amount Of the expectoration, and also a
diminution in the number of the bacilli
in the expectoration or their complete
disappearance from it,
This has not always been the case. In
not few instances no improvement has
resulted, and in other cases direct and
most damaging results, including hem
orrhage and even death, have been
brought about by it. In the treatment
of tuberculosis of the bones and joints
results seem to have been widely differ
ent. 1t is certain that some cases have
been benefited, and equally certain that
others have not. - Popular Science

Sixty-Four Years Married.

Greene county can probably boast of
having one of the oldest married couples
in the state. David Sickle and Mary,
his wife, are the happy pair. They have
been living together for sixty-four years,
having been married in 1926. The com
bined ages of the two are 174 years. Both
are still enjoying fairly good health.
Mr.. Sickle was born in Washington
county fully ninety-one years ago, and
moved to his present residence in Morris
in 1910. Eight children were born as
the fruits of this union, and three are
still living. The old gentleman is quite
active and his mental faculties are good.
He was always an Industrious man, and
he still cuts his wood and does many
other odd jobs about the farm

Lookout Mountain Shaken.

Recently blast was fired on the side
of Lookout mountain, which was re-
markable in its size and results. One
hundred kegs of powder were packed in
six holes and fred by electricity. A
ledge of rocks was dislodged, and hun
dreds of tons rolled down the mountain
side, some of the pieces being as high as
two story building. The broad guage
railroad track was destroyed for 200
yards and trees cut down like straw. II
took two weeks for fifty men to repair
the damage to the railroad, which was
worse than hole in the ground. Al
least 100000 tons of rock were thrown
out and down.-Memphis Appeal-Ava.

An Advertising Dodge.

Not long ago a hanson cab was driven
at a very rapid pace through the Strand
in London. The passers by saw to their
horror that there were two men inside
engaged in an apparently deadly strug-
gle. They raised an alarm, and some
bolder than the rest brought the horse to
standstill. Thereupon the two, who a
few moments before were engaged in a
life or death conflict, leaned quietly for
ward and distributed among the crowd
some handbills, inviting them to go to
such and such theater to witness Ger.

Our Spring Times.

When spring comes to seek her own
Do they all rise at her words?
Z Is the little fiedgeling's tone
Sweet as was the parent birds?
When once more the streamlets roam
Do the robins all come home?
Here's nest upon the bough,
But there comes no bird to claim;
Has she made new nest now?
If from some far land we came
We should all the home nest know,
Even were it filed with snow.
There are blue eyes that we miss
In the flush of violet time;
Something lacking in the bliss
OF the bird bells sweetest chime;
In the heart are many spots
Sacred to forget-me-notS.
II perchance youth cometh back
Through some treasure on your knee,
Still the heart will prove lack,
Lovely though the child may be;
For if it so needeth you,
You still need your mother too.
Sometime will the far off springs
Come back with these later ones;
There will be no missing wings,
There will be no missing tones
All the joys, but dearer grown,
OF the spring times we have known.

death. Some years ago he had his vault
built and coffin ordered. When M. L.

months ago, the casket was destroyed.
Some weeks ago he wrote to friend in
Macon to send him another. His friend
was slow about attending to the request,
and when Mr.. Glider was taken sick last
week he had a telegram sent to an under
taker at Macon for casket worth $3.50.

Cold winters and the Salmon Catch

A Waldo county fisherman says that
this old fashioned winter will result in
large catch of salmon. Why? Well,
he says that when we have an open win
ter the salmon are near shore, and go up
the rivers before the season opens,
making poor fishing for them along the
coast. In cold winter the salmon &c

back. That gives the coast fishermen a
chance to catch the beauties before they
get up river.-Lewiston Journal.
