IMPORTANT ATTRACTION SECURED BY MR. GEORGE E.
 BUNNELT
For Early Presentation nt the Hyperion Theater-Stupendous Production of "King Washington"

"I2ing Washington"
 The following correspondence explains Itself
 New York, March 25, 1901. G. B. Bunnell, New Haven. Conn:
 Dear Sir-It may interest you to know that early in April the stupendous pro- duction of King Washington" will re- ceive it's first presentation. The pre- liminary tour includes all the leading cities of the east, and 1t has occurred to me that New Haven would enjoy this famous play prior to it's New York run. It will appeal specially to that lio- ble society the Daughters of the Amer ican Revolution, dealing as it does with the time of Washington and being founded on the historical fact of Gen. eral Washingtons refusal in 17S2 to ac- cept the kingshp of America, one of the authors being Adelaide Sheel, well known regent of the society at New burgh, New York
 The production will be the most elab- V crate known in recent years, while the cast already engaged includes some of the best known players on the stage.
 Should sufficient encouragement be offered I should be glad to bring the play to New Haven. Owing to the great expense attached to this present ation it is imperative that some guar artee be assured.
 Awaiting your immediately reply,
 Very truly yours,
 JACK HIRSH, Manager. e. B. Bunnell, of the Hyperion thea ter, with his usual enterprise to favor New Haven theater-goers with only the best, has decided to bring to this city a new play "King Washington" This announcement will prove especially gratifying to the members of the members of the Daughters of the Amer lean Revolution. The play appeals strongly to this noble society, especially Since one of the authors, Adelaide Sheel, is regent of the order at New hurgh N. Y.
 With the confidence that there will be a ready response, G. B, Bunnell has Succeeded in arranging for the present ation of the piece early in April at the Hyperion in this city. The piece is founded upon the novel of the same name by Adelaide Sheel and William H. Brearley. and upon the historical fact of General Washington's refusal in 17S2 | to accept the kingship of America.

The Care of the Hands.

Beautiful hands are always attrac-
tive, and, while all hands cannot be
beautiful as to form, f the hands are
properly cared for they can be made
to look very pretty. The ideal hand is
long and delicate, the fingers are soft,
round, small and tapering, and the
nails are nicely rounded. BY care and
attention every hand can be made 20
resemble this ideal hand.
The actual. size of the hand, of
course, cannot be altered, but it can be
made soft and white, and the nails can
be trained so that in a short while
the hand, however large, will be pret-
ty.
At night wash the hands in warm
water, using the best quality Of soap,
and after thoroughly cleansing the
skin rinse them in clear water, dry
WELL and be very, very sure that they
are absolutely dry. At night rub the
hands all over with cold cream or Gu
cumber cream, and take an old pair of
gloves that are well stretched, cut the
tips of the fingers off and slip the
gloves on over your greasy hands. A
few nights of this treatment will do
wonders. In the morning wash your
hands in the usual way, and as you
dry them push back the skin around
the edge of each nail. Presently a lit
tie crescent will appear, To prevent
the skin growing up the nails and
again covering the crescent, rub the
skin with lemon juice; but If you re-
member to push the skin back every
time you wash your hands, this will
not happen.
Let the length and shape of the nails
follow the formation of each finger.
Once a week the nails should be mani
cured as follows: Soak the finger tips
for about FIVE minutes in hot, soapy
water, wipe them dry; then with IA
little cutlcle knife push the skin back
from the nails, and with a curved scis
sors remove any proud" flesh Then
shape the nails; this is best done with
n file especially if the nails hav a ten
dency to break. The final touch to the
nails is given with polishing powder
and chamois. s.-Edna Burd, in Ameri-
can Queen.

TriIby in Real Life.

Svengali in real life is undertaking
to teach a girl by means Of hypnotic
influence, TO become an expert violin
ist. Like Trllby, the girl has no natur-
al aptitude for such TASK, and had
practically given up her ambitions to
be a violinist when the hypnotist took
her in hand, The subject had taken
violin lessons for months, and was un-
able to make the violin do more than
squeak out a few simple airs. When
the hypnotist put the girl under Gin
fuence" her fingers, says Science Sift-
ingS, became supple, her touch was
accurate, and she handled the bow sur
prisingly well. Unlike Trlby, she
showed the same skin when she passed
from under the influence of the hyp-
motto spell.

Bnnncts For Childrcn.

All young children wear the pictur-
esque bonnets; the pokes and the round
shapes made Of shirred silk, velvet Or
cloth. The latter are almost too heavy
even in the lightweight cloths to be
generally recommended. These bon
nets are good things for winter wear,
as the head fits close into the crown,
and there is consequently sufficient
warmth at the back of the head, while
the fiaring brim is very pretty, and
shows off the delicate features in a
charmlngly picturesque fashion. Bows
of taffeta and satin ribbon or the clus-
ters Of ostrich tips the same shade as
the bonnet, and the little wreath Of
roses inside, or a few small roses put
in through the ruche tnat surrounds
the face are the favorite trimmings

Floral Garniture.

A pretty floral garniture Of extreme
ly small blossoms decorates the front
panel of a dinner dress Of emerald
panne in a novel manner The flowers
used are violets, purple and white,
made cleverly in a graduated band in
silk and velvet The effect is a chain
woven like the daisy chains which
English and American children weave
in June. The violet chain starts from
the corsage; it is passed around the
neck, and is attached as border to
the low-cut, squared decolletage, 1t
makes a loop around the cOrsage bow
on the left of the bodice, and then con-
tlnuing downward follows the left Of
front" to the head of the skirt hOunc-
ing, where it finishes with another loop
and with ends under the bow placed
at that point to match the cOrsage bow
Of ribbon.

Rrldegroom's Perfuno.ory Promise
The groom entered alone and said
eonfdentially:
DO you use the word obey in your
marriage service, Mr.. -r"
No, said the minister, Il do not
usually"
We'll" said the expectant benedict,
l have come to ask you to marry me
now, and | want it used ar.
Certainly" replied the other. II
shall be done" and presently the couple
stood solemnly before him.
James r" said the clergyman,
do you take this woman to be your
welded wiie?'
Il do"
do you absolutely promise to love,
to honor, and obey her so long as you
both shall live?"
Horror and rebellion struggled with
the sanctites of the occasion on the
bridegroom's face. but he chokingly re-
sponded Il do, and the meek bride
decorously promised in her turn,
Alter the ceremony was over the
bridegroom said excitedly aside to the
grave minister:
You misunderstood me, sir; you
misunderstood mel l referred to the
Woman's promising to obey"
An, you did, indeed? serenely an
swered his reverence. But l think
what is good for one side is good Tor
the other, don't you? And, my friend,
1t is my advice to you, to say nothing
about 1t, for as an old married man, l
can tell you you'll have to obey any
how"

TriAes That Tell.

1t is in small things that a dainty
woman is always conspicuous; the lit
tie things that appear unimportant to
the careless woman, the well-dressed
and dainty woman regards as vital.
A soiled collar-ever so slightly soiled
a crushed ribbon, an absan hook OF
button, or a conspicuous pin has been
known to spoil the entire effect OF, an
otherwise perfect toilet.
Another unforgiyable ofrense in the
ethics Of the fastidious woman is the
wearing Of cheap fnery or imitation
jewelry or an abundance Of tne latter
at inopportune times.
Shoes are another important detail;
and handkerchiefs, stockings and the
many etceteras that go to make up a
dainty appearance must each and all
receive ention.--American Queen.

BEST SPRING MEDICINE
The Palm Given TO Or. GraenH'S
HerVuTa.
That Grand Jury, the People, Have So
Decided
Used by Hundreds of Thousands in
Spring as Blood Medicine.

DR.. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve
remedy is indeed "The " orlds Great
Spring Medicine. 1t has come to be
recognized by almost everybody as the
best possible spring medicine to take,
and hundreds of thousands of our
people use it during the trying spring
months, to tone up anew the relaxed
nerves and re-invigorate and enrich
the blood.
A spring medicine is Necessity if
one wishes to keep in perfect health
and vigor during the changes from
winter to summer, This grand spring
tonic, this perfect spring medicine, DR..
Greene's Nervura blood and nerve
remedy, is exactly what the system
needs at this season. 1t not only
purihes, but makes rich, red blood it
not only strengthens and invigorates
the nervous system, but re-energizes
and reyitalizes the nerves by feeding
them with renewed nerve force and
power. 1t is not only an aid to diges-
ton, but it creates a regular, natural
and healthy action of the bowels, liver,
kidneys, which in the spring are al
ways sluggish and inactive.
In fact 1t is just what people need
to make them we'll and keep them well
during these months, so threatening

sidered that DR.. Greenes Nervura
blood and nerve remedy is made en-
tirely from pure, health-giving vege-
table remedies, and that people give
it more testimonial Of cure than any
other remedy on earth, no one can
doubt that it is the very best spring
remedy for everybody to use.

The Origin of Baseball.

The origin of baseball-"our national
game"-is not definitely known, but the
first club organized to play it was in
New York in IS45. Singularly enough,
this club, like the one first organized to
promote rowing, was called the
Knickerbocker Club" After 1851 other
amateur baseball clubs began to organ
ize, including the Atlantic, Mutual,
Union, etc. In 1857 a convention OF
delegates from sixteen clubs in and
around New York and Brooklyn was
held. About ten years later at the an
nual convention OF the National Asso-
citation in 1866, two hundred and two
clubs from seventeen States and the
District of Columbia were represented.
The college baseball associations were
started about 1862 or 1868 Amateur
baseball throughout the Union was at
its height III the years 1865 90, and '67.
Professional baseball was recognized
in 1903 and the first games were played
in 1860.
