was with but small faith in any benefit to
be derived from them that l at last made
up my mind to try them.
"Hardiy had | taken the first box before
I experienced a great relief from the
weakness and nervous troubles with
which | was afflicted, and my eyes grew
stronger every day.
"Are you taking the pills nowl" was
the next query.
"No: as / told you the first box helped
me great deal, and after had taken six
boxes felt so well that left off the medi-
cine entirely and have not taken any now
for some weeks. | am able to attend to
all my duties and feel as well as can be,
while my eyes continue to improve right
along. do not even mind the long walk
from my home to the business part of the
city.
Miss Warner further said that DR.. Will
liams' Pink Pills for Pale People build up
the system, giving a last effect and not
merely fictitious strength for the time
being.
DIR. Williams Pink Pills for Pale People
contain, in a condensed form, all the ele-
ments necessary to give new life and rich
ness to the blood and restore shattered
nerves. They are an unfailing specific for
such diseases as locomotor ataxia, par
tial paralysis, st. Vitus' dance, sciatica,
neuralgia, rheumatism, nervous head
ache the after effect of la grippe, palpi-
tation of the heart pale and sallow com
plexions, all forms of weakness either in
rlale OF female. Pink Pills are sold by
all dealers, or will be sent post paid on
receipt of price, so cents a box, or six
boxes for 81. so (they are never sold in

when addressed he will quickly re-
spond, even waking out CT sound
sleep to go toward the speaker.
Sometimes, to confuse him, the clerks
will sing out some word or words in
which the syllable Tom is empha-
sized, and to that he pays no atten-
ton. But let any one call, tom, it's
dinner time" and forthwith he walks
across the room, reaches up with his
paws to tin pail, claws it down, and
comes bringing it in his mouth. Tom
is passionately fond of music. At
the CRY of "Handorgan" he climbs
to high window seat, but at the
words Here's dog" he sinks un-
der a desk.
One of the most accomplished cats
in England belongs to Lady Ran
dolph Churchill. 1t is a Maltese An
CORA, without spot, and with par
ticularly cunning face. This cat was
bought for the late Lord Randolph
Churchill during that year or two
when his strong mind failed and
every effort was made to amuse him.
He was afraid of dogs, taking sud-
den terror at the sight of them, but
Miss Angora just pleased him. She
was sent from India by an officer in
that country who had taken her pa
rents there years before. Her mother
had been a watch-cat, able to keep
guard over tent, meowing if
strange step came, and, of course,
her children were very bright. When
this Churchill cat was told to $50
play the piano!" she would immed-
lately walk back and forth npon the
keys of the baby-grand in the bou-
DOR. Now sit for your picturep
meant to assume demure position,
with her paws in line, her tail neatly
curled around them, and her head
nicely bent to one side as if trying to
look pleasant" = Our Annual

Belle paused for breath, and then
went on eaInestly:-
NOW, furthermore, whereas there
has been some objection among you
to asking for jelly and potted plants,
lot me place some considerations be-
fore you. You can see what cut
fowsrs are to these poor, crowded-in
city people, who have the same love
of nature we have, only with no
means of gratifying it. If cut flowers
are so much to them, what must be
real, live, growing plant?
"They want a potted plant for every
room in every tenement house, and
we can help just as we'll as not. All
we do is to ask, as our collectors go
around, if the people who are giving
the flowers will, when they slip their
plants, put in few more slips for
the poor in the cities. The arrange
ment for this part of the work is as
simple as possible. The slips are just
put into the ground, and stay there
till nearly time for frost, when the
collectors go around, with their bask-
cts partly filled with wet florists
moss. The slips, packed in this, are
then expressed to a florist in the city,
who has engaged to pot them, which
brings down expense and saves trou-
BILE. Then distribution follows, and
the pleasure lasts through the long
winter when we have no flowers to
send.
"Now about the jelly. If you
could have seen the trays at the hos
pitfalls, with the food ready for those
poo, sick people, and knew how little
variety and how little there is to
tempt the appetite, you would be
willing, am sure, to ask anybody for
anything. And, really, the work is
not so much. You see the collectors
are already going the rounds. You
don't have to start up any new route
or begin any new way of work. Simp-
ly asked those who are giving you
flowers to put aside for you one glass
of jelly when they make it for them
selves. OF course. they can give more
if they wish. All we need to do is to
suggest it.
"You know we have twenty patro-
nesses: that means $40. We can get
a barrel of glasses for SIS. There are
twenty dozen in a barrel. If all these
glasses are taken, we can get more.
Could any work of equal value be
accomplished SO easily'"
The girls had listened with grow
ing interest; and, when a vote was
taken as 10 when they should COM
mence their Jelly round" all were of
one mind,-that they should begin
that very week; for currant jelly was
SO good, and it ought to be made by
the Fourth of July.
When the meeting adjourned, the
president and treasurer wheeled down
to the grocer's, ordered barrel of
glasses, and the next day could be
heard great jingling in the baskets
as each collector made her round.
Next October we will hear from our
pretty bicycle girls how they worked
as we'll as played during the summe
months, and how the jelly turned
oIt.-Barnetta Broavn, an the Altru-
sst Interchange.

SONS, and dogwood
found their way into tenement quar-
tiers and hospital wards. An occa
sional letter in acknowledgment of
their baskets piqued the curiosity OF
these girls to SEE the work at the
other end.
"Do you suppose those people
really care SO very much?" asked one
of them.
"Let's go and see" said the pretty
girl.
Suiting the action to the word (the
following day being the regular day
for collection), two of the girls fol-
lowed the baskets to their destina-
ton. Later in the week Belle called
a meeting on her fathers lawn, to
give full report.
With wheels piled carelessly
around, the girls grouped pictur-
esquely under the trees, listened Gag
erly; and no greater contrast to the
scene of visit than the picture they
made could be imagined.
"Well, girls" Belle said, 81 wish l
could tell you one-quarter of what We
saw and heard; but l can't for there
isn't time. l have been picturing
those people as being just ordinarily
glad to get the flowers; and I've
thought how they would put them in
water in tomato cans, or any old thing
at hand, and how they would quietly
look at the brightness as they worked
along, and once in while take a
smell. But it isn't like that at all. Of
all the men, women, and children we
saw receive flowers, not one was just
ordinarily glad. Every single, sepa-
rate one was just-well, raving glad!
Let me tell you of two cases. First,
we went to the hospital. The ward
was full of pale, worn, tired faced
women; and, oh! if you could have
seen them brighten up as we entered
with our arms full of flowers. Some,
that could, raised up on their elbows.
Some were only able to stretch out
their hands eagerly; while some sat
right up, and cried, ooh! do give me
somew l went to one who seemed
unable to sit up, but whose eyes were
fairly begging.
"Would you like some clover
blossoms?' asked.
"She said not one word, but
stretched out her hand. l put some
clovers in it; and, with the tears rain
ing down her face, she kissed them
over and over again, then laid them
against her cheek on the pillow, and
quietly fell asleep, as we stood there.
The nurse told me she had been so
restless that nothing they could do
would quiet her; but the clover bios
SONS did it, with their sweetness and
freshness. The breath of the coun-
try which came with them, the nurse
said, had its effect
"Then we went with quantity OF
flowers down into a tenement district.
Men, women, and children seemed to
spring out of the earth, or, rather
out of the sidewalks and cobble-
stones, as we appeared; and we were
surrounded instantly with clamoring
people. One dirty little specimen Of
boy seized handful ofdaisies held
out to him, and disappeared in dark
hallway, like a rat in hole, gave
them to somebody, then darted back
for more. One forlorn looking old
woman tottered off, crying, with lot
of flowers Rugged in her arms. The
visiting nurses and everybody inter
ested in this work in the city say
that all we can do, with all the col
lectors we can get, will not satisfy
the demand"

ton, says the Chicago Tlmes-Herald,
and will be, no doubt, followed by q
large nnmber Of entertainments in
honor Of the fair debutante. Miss Sar-
toris was born 1nlonlon nearly eight
cen years ago. She is q pretty bru-
nette, with chestnut ha1r and a rich
olive complexion. She is of medium
height, with a tendency to plumpness.
Educated abroad, she is one of tho
best Informed girls in her set. Her
mother looked after Miss Vivien's ed
ucation with her own eyes, and the re-
suit is seen In the womanly character
Of the daughters mind and education.
Miss Sartoris has a voice of good vol
ume and native sweetness, and it has
not lost any of its power by an en-
forced cultivation. She will be given
some vocal tr lining during the winter.
Miss Sartoris speaks perfect French,
but has not studied other languages
than that and her own. Her sister,
who is just fifteen. promises to rival
the eldest In personal attraction. Mrs.
Sartoris herself looks more like an ell
der sister with her charming daugh-
