EDUCATION IN PORTO RICO.

The expense of maintaining schools in
Porto Rico is very h'gh, if we consider
the amount spent for the small number
of pupils enrolled; but as that country is
gradually brought i'll closer touch with
our own, their system will evidently be
changed. until it reaches our present
state of perfection. In this country the
people are being educated to the fact,
that there is a sure cure for dyspepsia,
indigestion, constipation, liver and kid
ney troubles, and that medicine is Hos
letters Stomach Bitters. 1t should be
taken at the very first symptom, if you
would avoid unnecessary suffering. 1t
will give prompt relief and eventually
cure, as hundreds of people, including
many prominent physicians, have testi-
fed during the past fifty years.

PARIS. Feb. 1.-THE fashionable world
never looks TO the famous Paquin in vain
for something new. and the very latest
spring models. though they show no an
ticfpated revelation III the skirt line rise
fully to the expectation of the curious
public Perhaps the most noticeable
feature about the new Paquin models is
their alfectation of simplicity and the
tendency Of all OF them is to lengthen the
figure as much as possible, Striped ef-
fecrs are consequen ~ in great evidence,
and they are procured either by means
Of the striped fabrics themselves or by
trimmings so dextrously applied that
they appear part of the FABRIC. One
charming gown belongs to the class which
answers to the latter description. 1t IS OF
plain royal blue cloth with the skirt alb
solutely plain but clinging above and
iaring considerably below.
The cloth is cut as dropskirt, winch
is Joined in the belt to the underskirt of
taffeta of the same shade of blue and
finished with the usual dust rufte. The
bodice is OF the same cloth, made quite
plain and in blouse fern over a tight
lifting and honed silk lining. The closing
is at the back, as is also the placquet OF
the skirt, which is hidden under the IN
verified box pIeat The whole gown Is
outlined from the high stock collar OF
royal velvet to the hem Of the skirt with
wide stripes of black silk euipure inser-
ton over gold gallOon of the same width.
