bon of two light colors should be used, such
as pale pink and heliotrope, green or blue.
The easiest way Of managing the work is
explained as follows by The Decorator and
Furnisher, to which on. cut is due:
Take drawing board and arrange upon
Il number of pieces of ribbon, all of one
color and the length required for the work,
with about two inches over. Set these
bands side by side longitudinally and hold
them down to the board at each end with a
drawing pin, tin tack or ordinary pin.
Now begin the weaving, drawing the sec
ond set horizontally over and under the
front set of ribbons, taking the bands over
certain hues and under Others. according
to the requirements Of the pattern II
possible, the wrong side of the ribbons
shorid set uppermost while the work is be-
ing executed, the right side resting against
the board As each band Of ribbon 10
threaded it should be pushed up so that it
rests evenly by the side of that which was
laid last. and should be held down at each
end with n pin.
When all are placed, they must be So
cured i'm one of two ways, the former being
the best when the plating is to be laid up
on second material and held down by en-
brodery stitches The first plan is to take
brush and very little paste--it is scarce
ly possible TO get too little-and spread this
over the ribbon. Then lay piece Of tissue
paper over the work inside the row OF pins,
which are removed when this is dry, and
the plating is thereby released from the
board. The second way OF managing tho
finishing of is to take some strips of
gummed paper and to stick them all around
lhe edges of the work only.

In explaining the great demand for

yesterdays papers g member Of the health
board in an adjoining city said:
1.-The nervous systems of thousands of
people in this city are sorely taxed.
'tAnd the danger of overwork exists as
much among women as among men, sc the
numerous cases of insomnia and kindred
nervous diseases in every physician's prac-
tice show.
Even in youth the symptoms of a dis
ordered nervous system often chow them
selves. But Ii Is not so much overwork as
overworry that affects the health of the
child and results In disease. A class of 40
girls in Boston school was questioned
not long ago, and more than half the num-
Der were conscious of loss of sleep and
nervous apprehension on account of their
school work"

ment of the practice among physicians in
highest standing of prescribing Paine's eel

LONG BRANCH, N. j., Jan. 6.-The fierce
snow and wind storm which prevailed
along the entire Jersey coast has wrought
much damage. A heavy sea has been rag
ing all day yesterday and to-day. The
Shrewsbury hotel at Seabright is being I'M

At this point the famous iron pier is q
total wreck. The high sea carried off q
great portion of the structure. The entire
