WHEN A WOMAN WILLS.
Oar Deed of a Washington Dame with
Social Aspirations.

Social Aspirations.
People who go about and in society
tell me that when a woman ardently
desires to make herself one of the IA
vored few of the smart set, there is
really nothing she will stop at, and
some of these same persons have been
telling me this story in illustration
of what they say. In high officialdom,
says writer in the Washington Post,
is a little lady, dainty as spring
crocus, who was member of the in
ner circle long before she became a
part of officialdom. On one of her
last reception days she was chatting
with two cabinet women, when the
servant announced the arrival of a
woman who is struggling to get into
things as never social climber strug-
gled before. The hostess knew her
by sight merely, and had never so
much as had a bowling acquaintance
with her, but official people are used
TO seeing strangers at their receptions,
and the lady of the house bowed with
her usual graciousness. The climbers
quick eye took IN the situation. She
saw the two cabinet women, AMI she
knew they say her. She rc%c to the
occasion in mastery fashion. my
dear Mrs. Blank" she said gushingly,
clasping the hostess hand warmly, 81
was 90 sorry no. 10 have been at home
wher you called on Friday. 1t was so
sweet of you 10 come so soon, and ]
do Iope yu Ii come in very often, in
formally, that way" And before the
hostess had recovered froii her sur.
prise the climber has passed on, well
content, for she had appeared in the
presence of two cabinet women as the
intimate friend of lady who had
never even set foot on her doorsteps

Innumerable brands Of cigars are be-
ing constantly placed on the market
the most notable of which is Burg's
aBlizzard. J" The name Of this cigar is
an old and familiar one. The trade
mark !" Blizzard'' having been registered
~ Frank Burg many years ago, since
which time the brand has become q
household word. However the 8 sBlizzard'
cigar Of today is not tbs ..Blikzard" ci-
gar Of years ago, except in name.
n keeping with the wide-awake en-
terprise OF the hustling proprietors of
the !" Old Reliable Cigar Factory No.14.''
which was established in 1871, and with
q desire to cater to the trade as though
it was really worth attention, the ssBliz-
zard' cigar has been rejuvenated and
brought up-to-date. Burg's tBlizzard''
today is q new cigar in the ornament Of
smokerdom. It is q high-grade 10-cent
cigar, made only of the best Havana to-
bacco with sumatra wrapper each ci-
gar being wrapped in gold foil, which
preserves the delicate aroma that onlv
Havana possesses. The Tobacco used in
the filler OF this cigar is a genuine clear
Vuelta, raised in district ON the island
Of Cuba, known as the "Vuelta Abaio"
district, which produces that superior
mild, mellow, aromatic character dis
tinguishable only in this fine favored
pIOuuCIAVu O1 ILLS lSl80O. ~
The workmanship on this cigar repre-
sents the most intelligent and thorough
work money can hire. If there was bet
ter tobacco grown than is used in this
cigar, they would have used it. If any
better cigar makers could be had, they
would have been obtained. The propri-
etors OF the Frank Burg cigar factory
can congratulate themselves on knowing
that this "Blizzard" cigar is the "Queen
Of all' domestic 10-cent cigars, That
they will meet the approval of connois-
seurs> goes without saying. It rests with
you, dear reader, to call On your nearest
dealer and be convinced of the un-
equalled opportunity offered the smok-
ing public in this meritorious blizzard"
