"Welll WE'LL What will the girls do

a business man asked this question
the other day Of a New York World re-

with bang by vigorous, rosy
checked and muscular-looking young
woman OF about twenty years. BUSH

the car stopped at the third floor.

Everyone wondered at her dexterity.
And she was the pink of propriety, POI

tenants of the building. To say that she
was an improvement on a great many
surly elevator kings in downtown
Office buildings would be putting IL

And up shot the car.

whether the rosy-cheeked elevator girl
was fixture or not. as she refused
pointblank to answer any questions
about herself.

when asked her name. II am here TO
work, not to talk about myself"

says she can run an elevator car better

MOhair Dresses,

Very useful dresses, mentioned by H;r-
per's Bazaar, for morning wear in spring
and for travelling and the seashorc in sum
mer are of dark mohair, blue, brown o,
gray, of the coarse weave so much used D
few years ago, This is a lightweight fabric,
with smooth lustrous surface that sheds
dust and water. In navy blue it will rival
the sergcs and sackingS that are used for
steamer, boating and other outing dresses
Paris tailors make these gowns more elab-
oratcly than those brought from London,
having a long English ovcrskirt caught up
on the left side and trimmed above a hem
with row of black satin ribbon an inch
wide ovcrlaid with vine of ecru lace.
The silk petticoat disclosed by the drapine
is Al yards wide, with knife plated
ruf1le inches deep around it, bordered
with the black ribbon and lace vine. A
long coat of the mohair reaches to the knee
and is fitted in the back, with loose and
open front. The side forms extend in
pointed basqucs edged with ribbon and
lace. Short revers and turned over col
lar are similarly trimmed, but the gigot
sleeves are plain. This is worn over shirt
waist of silk, like the petticoat in ombre
stripes Of pink and brown-a charmin2

THE TARIFF DEBATE.


WASHINGTON, April 25-At l T. NJ, the
Senate began the consideration of the tariff
bill, paragraph BY paragraph. The first
amendment to the first paragraph is to M
the time for the bill TO go into effect June
80, 1894. instead of June /. Plats argued
against the bill going into effect June 80
He declared that lis doing 50 would impose
penalties TO enormous amounts upon mer-
chants and manufacturers who would moi
be able to dispose of the stock on hsnd
without great loss, also upon the
working people of the country.
Why, he asked, did the tarin
reformers extend their hatred of man
ufac.ureIs to the merchants and workmen:
He denounced the proposed legislation as
crime against the nation and against hu-
mainly. The mere threat of its passage
had produced dire results. He appealed to
the Democratic senators to postpone the
time for the bill to so into effect until after
the opening of the next session OF Con-
gress.
After discussion on the pending amend
ment appeared closed it was suggested oy
Harris that vote be taken upon 1t, and AL
lison moved to amend by striking out 5Oth
of June and lea, ing a blank for the date
He argued that that was the more desirable
course. The tariff act OF 1888 did not take
effect for five or six months after its pas
sage. The Mckinley act passed October,
1890, and did not so into effec. until the Isl
of April, 1891.
Vest sal the bill could not take effect
until after its approval by the Senate and
was not that notice enough? Allison re-
marked he did not see how the bill would
pass before jane 20.
After further discussion, Dolph started
with another instalment of his speech. This
gave rise to various interruptions and a
series of short speeches. Without action
on the amendment as to the time at which
the bill should take effect, the Senate ad-
journed.

Recent discoveries have demonstrated that
all the organs OF the body are under the con-
troll OF the nerve centerS, located in or near
the base OF the brain, and that when these are
deranged the organs which they supply with
nerve fluid are also deranged. When it is re-
membered that serious injury to the spinal
cord will cause paralysis OF the body below
the injured point, because the nerve force is
prevented by the injury. from reaching the
paralyzed portion, 1t will be understood how
the arrangement of the nerve centers will
cause the arrangement OF the various organs
which they supply with nerve force.
Iwo-thirds OF chronic diseases are due to
the imperfect action of the nerve centers at
ment primarily originating in the organ it.
treating these diseases Is that they treat the
organ rather than the nerve centers which
are the cause Of the trouble.
DIR. FRANKLIN MILES, the celebrated spe.
cialist, has profoundly studied this subject foc
over 20 years, and has made many important
discoveries In connec ton with 1t, chief among
them being the facts contained In the above
