APRONS FOR GIRLS.
Nothing Else Makes School Girl Look 81
Dainty.

Nothing Else Makes School Girl Look Sc
Dainty.
Nothing makes a school girl look so
neat and pretty as a dainty apron.
Among the various styles that are
popular there is none which affords a
better protection for the dress than the
sacque apron. 1t has a straight front
and back shaped with shoulder and
side seams. and is very easily and
quickly made. A large collar is a
pretty finish for the neck, and the
sleeves are usually full bishop shape,
finished with neat wristbands.
A very pretty apron is made with a
full skirt, gathered to a plain waist.
Full ruffles are gathered into the arm
holes and around the edge of the low
neck. Ties of the material are sewed
into the side seams, and arranged in
a bow in the back. The ruffles may be
hemmed or edged with lace or en-
brOidery.
One of the handsomest styles for an
apron has full skirt with a deep hem
around the lower edge, and gathered
on a belt of the same material that
closes in the back with broad ties. Full
bretelles over the shoulders are sewed
to the belt in the back. The bretelles
in the front are Joined by a narrow
piece of the material. the lower edge
being joined to the belt.
AS to the materials suitable for
aprons crOssbarred muslin, swiss and
nainsook are pretty, and every little
girl should have a few white aprons to
wear with their best dresses. But for
school and everyday wear at home
ginghams are preferable, for they are
not so easily soiled Zephyr ginghams
are very durable, and may be obtained
in the most beautiful colors You
think they will fade? Not if they are
washed properly. Make a suds of
warm, soft water and ivory soap. Wash
them quickly, rinse through two wa
tiers, dip them in boiled starch and
hang them in the shade to dry. Iron

ed in this way. Linen lace and mar
row colored embroidery are pretty for
trimming, and are not expensive. or
they may be made entirely plain.

The swelling which follows from
blow, remarks the Philadelphia
Times, is natures effort to protect the
part from further injury and to keep
it at rest while repair is going on.
What actually takes place at the seat
of injury is not even now quite under
stood. The injury to the smaller
blood vessels interferes with the flow
of blood through them and the white
corpuscles, with part of the serum
the watering part of the blood, escape
into the surrounding tissues. At the
same time the blood vessels in the
neighborhood dilate and the increased
flow of blood with the thorOughfare
INSTRUCTED, increases the swelling.
1t is probable that the white corpus
Giles of the blood pass into the it's
sues to assist in the repair, as bees or
ants assemble at an injury to their
storehouse, but with this difference,
that the substance of the corpusces
is probably converted into the tissue
of repair. From one point of view the
human body is only one gigantic colo
ny of individuals, and the swelling
that follows injury but the rush of
these to repair the breach.

PHYSICIANS ORDER IT!
A REMARKABLE COMPOUND
THAT REALLY CURES.
Rheumatism RedraIgia and Dis
treSSing perVod5 Diseases.
Middlebury Druggists say that it
has Il Steadily Increasing Sale.
Phvsicians nrescrlhe il!

Physicians prescribe it!
That is one of the several remarkable
things about Paine's celery compound
that distinguish it from other advertised
remedies.
Another noteworthy point about this
compound is that it was discovered by
Prof. Phelps, IL. D., of Dartmouth
college, one of the ablest physicians and
surgeons of the country.
Prof. Phelps was aided in his work by
Col. NJ. X. Paine, the well-known com
pounding chemist, and Palne's celery
compound took its name from the latter.
The result of their labors was ecien-
tific. common sense remedy for those
diseases and troubles that result from
weakened nerves and Overstrained mind.
1t is not a sarsaparila, bitters, or mere
stimuant. but true food for the nerves
and brain, and is rightly regarded by
both the medical profession and the
public as an unequalled system regu-
lator.
But perhaps the most remarkable
feature in connection with this compound
is that its formula is freely furnished to
reputable physicians, and for that rea-
son, perhaps, they have special conf
dence in prescribing it, knowing it to be
harmless, as well as useful.
Such men as DR.. j. IL. Hanaford, the
well-kuown medical authority and in
vestigator, Amb. Livezey, NJ. D., who
is editor of several medical journals, and
DR.. a. w. Il. Newton, the skilful sur
geon, endorse Paine's celery compound
with words of most positive praise, and
prescribe it for rheumatism, neuralgia,
and all diseases that result from a
weakened and impoverished condition of
the nerves and blood. "a
Inquiries among the local drug trade
elicit the information that this compound
is meeting with an increasing sale and
that those of their customers who have
used it, are highly pleased with the re-
suits and invariably speak of it in the
highest terms.
1t is particularly pleasing at this time
to know that there is a remedy that
cures rheumatism, when the sufferer is
within reach of human aid. In two or
three instances, as the Mddlebury man
learned from those who had used the
compound, the results were almost
miraculous, restoring to health men and
women who had been confined to the
house for months, and enabling them to
walk without the aid of crutches.

For the first time in its history Flor
ida is shipping spolges to Europe and
receiving good returns on all that
reach the London market. The vari-
ETY. chiefly demanded is the grass
sponge. Good grass sponge is worth
from 40 to 60 cents a bunch. The
black crews of the sponging vessels
have begun TO remove their kraals to
Anclote key. Several reasons are given
for the removal, but the most i'm
portant is that the water at Bailey's
Point was being used too rapidly on
account of the large number of men
there. The kraals on Sea Horse key,
near Cedar Keys, have been there for
years, and are used by some of the
spongers when they make the Rock
Island trip in the winter. Mr.. Decker
recently shipped in one day 10 bales of
spcnges, which were said TO be worth
$1,000 in the Philadelphia market.
