A Present For Every bride.

For twenty three years "7he House
hold" has been a welcome visitor in
hundreds of thousands of American
homes, and has been, during these years,
the companion and help of the Ameri-
can housewife.
In order that the brides of the coun-
try may have the benefit of the visits
of this, the oldest household publication
in the country, the publishers offer to
send "1he Household" to all brides of
six months or less, who will, themselves,
or their friends, send two two cent
stamps with printed notice of their
marriage in the same letter.
This is a very tempting offer, and
they call 1t their ''Wedding Present.
which they offer TO every bride in the
UniteI States on the above terms.
"1he Household" has just made three
very striking offers to the three sub
scribers who shall obtain the three
largest lists of new subscribers between
March first and August first.
These presents are nothing less than
a 500 Horse and Goddard Buggy, a
Miller Upright Piano, in either Ma.
hogany, Oak, Walnut or Ebonized case,
and a Columbia Bicycle for either lady
or geDtlemens use.
The March number of "Ihe House
hold" contains illustrations and des-
criptions of these elegant presents, and
cam be found at the news stands, or
will be sent by the publishers, on re-
ceipt of ten cents by The Household
Company, 50 Bloomfield ST., Boston.

The fact that Easter falls on a
very early date this year March
29) has caused IA ''friend of facts
and figures" to collect some curl
Gus statistics, says the Pail Mall
Gazette. I'm 1888 Easter fell on
March 25th, and it will only once again
this century, namely, in 1894, fall on
so early a date. In the three follow
ing centuries it will occur only eight
times on the same date-namely. in
1861, 2035, 2046, 2057, 2103, 21l4, 2125
and 2195. The earliest date on which
Easter can fall is on March
22d, and this only in case the
moon is full on March 21st, wheh
this date happens to fall OH Saturday.
This combination of circumstances is
extremely rare; it occurred in 1890,
l761 and 1877, aud will happen again
in 1890, 2U76 and 2144, while during
the three following centuries it is not
once on the books at this early date.
On the other hand, Easter eve falls
later than April 25; this was the case
in 1866, 1734 and 1886, and will only
happen once in the next CENTURY
namely, in 1913.

Fall or winter wear.
Look at these! Spring

shades-light tans and grays
that count for so much in
Dresses, Long Wraps and
Cavalier Capes,.
