Miss Mary Crease Sears Is one Of the

tually set up in business for herself as
Evelyn NOrdhOff did in New York Miss
Sears has a shop in Boston. She re-
ceived at the Boston Museum of Fine
Arts the pTelimlnaries of her art train
ing, and she feels that her study there
of the principles of decoration and de
sign was of inestimable value to her in
the work she has undertaken. For three
years she has been dev0tag herself to
bOokbinding, craft concerning which
she is very enthusiastic. She feels sure,
she says. that it contains many posi-

who may decide to devote themselves
to It,
Miss Sears drifted into this work
through her general designing and her
book plate commissions. A collector
whom she knew told her one day that
she should learn to bind, and ne took
her to a large bindry. where She saw for
the first time the process by which an
authors sheets are placed between OTnI-

now the bookbnder for the Carnegie

NEW YORK, April 26-Harry Lehr,
whose female representations In times
past have been pronounced wonderful
at last has "a really dangerous rival
among the Boston Four Hundred in J.
D. Eltinge, who has been amusing the
exclusive social circle Of the Hub by his
remarkable feminine studies. When Bos-

circus, a few weeks ago, Eltinge was
quite drawing card. He gave selections
from some of the operas in which he won
success during the past winter and also
appeared in brand new roles and cos
tunes

how he wears them! Fhey are dreams,
and Eltinge wears them with a style
which enhances their beauty.

merely engaged to do the premier dane

the fellow that was to play leading lady
did not appear and Eltinge was asked
to read his part, which he did SO sue
cessfully that the leading lacy was tele-

young impersonator was asked to play the
part.
1t was q simple role, but proved to be
the hit of the show, 80 much vivacity
did Mr.. Eltinge put into it, The part
was that of a young Boston bud, with
three songs and q few. dances and
charmingIy attractive costumes.
His next success was in "Fairyland,"

was a terrible ordeal, as the play was
six weeks under way when he entered
the cast and the $50 men were all strang-

The Lay Followed by Eggs.

The advent of Easter has been inya-
riably followed by a flood of Easter
stories, and this year has proved no
exception to the rule. One of the latest
is told ny Rev. DIR. Greer, of st. Bar
tEOlomeWS church.
1t was at the services at the mission
or BlackWell's island. The exercises
had proceeded in regular style, and were
near to an end
The clergyman in charge rose and,
with becoming dignity announced:

EIhnge danced and posed as they form
ed groups about him. He was dressed
in gray tights. with a hood, with gray
gauze flying, and a gauze sash. This
dance was considered the most classic
of the twenty-five dances. The other part
was that of a Soy in riding togs, who,
having been chased all night by twelve
big black spiders, runs into the opening
of forest where sits the fairy queen,
who falls in love with him at sight and
transforms him into a handsome prince.
This was very successful, but it was
in Miss Simplicity that Mr.. EItinge
made his biggest hit. Again he was not
cast for that part at first, but for the
soubrette role. However, the committe
could not find man who could play
the part to suit-that is, in voice, dra-
matte power and dancing-sso he was
given the character. 1t was a great
part, having seven songs and a few
dances and a great amount of dialogue
which was bright and snappy.
Miss Simplicity was a French girl Of
royal blood, who was to marry an Eng
lsh nobleman, and as she had never seen
him she did not care to marry him, so
ran away with her maid to q lowly part
of France. where the nobleman, also
in disguise, had fed to escape the mar
riage They meet and fall in love, and
just as they are about to be married
they discover each others identity and
all ends well.

The 'ohs" and "ahs" that greeted his
appearance in Miss Simplicity were
expressive of the favorable impression he
made upon the audience, even before the
falling of the curtain permitted of the

ent available capital 1t has a reserve
fund. and being ambitious, seeing many
ways to better itself, or seeing some other
corporation passing it in the race for
fame or money. it resolves to borrow from
this reserve, thinking to repay the loan
with prospective gains. The scheme, how
ever, in the course of time, needs a lit
tie more to back 1t, and new loan IS
made and by and by the paid in capital
and reserve stock are both exhausted and
the corporation ceases to exist.
Ambition Defeats Sense.
In a state of health the condition of the
body is such that the supply Of vital force
Is equal to the demand AS soon as this
equilibrium is disturbed or when there
is a run" on this vitality, the brain Or
ders a halt and then rests until it can
recuperate. True, there may be a reserve
vitality, but It Is unwise to draw upon
that unless safety demands the sacrifice.
The question then arises which is better,
to rest or to draw on the reserve. Com
mon sense and good judgment say rest;
ambition says use the reserve, and am
bition usually wins. Accordingly we call
in aid when we pay out of the reserve
and for illustration we will call this IT,
While this T allows a certain amount Of
extra work to be done, it draws upon the
reserve, weakens the resources and
diminishes the vital capital so that, while
it may aid in executing a coup d'etat, it
leaves the system in a crippled condition
unable to cope with an ordinary force.

time, we find on the one hand, that Of

long run aggregated a large total, and On

counts. The necessary conclusion is that
this aid must be dispensed with and only
occasionally called in in a crisis, it being
better to do an ordinary amount of work
and pay as we go than to transact an
immense business, head over heels in debt
for that which we cannot pay, for he who

TEA BAD AS ALCOHOL
A STIMULENT EXTREMELY DAN
GEROUS TO THE HUMAN SYSTEM
Is an Irritant Poison Which EXcites
Vital Action, but Is Not Food
in Any Sense and Does Not Aid
In the Formation or Repair of
Tissue.

1t is an axiom that there is no action
without it's reaction, an axiom that applies
to natural actions as well as artifcially
induced action. Bodily and mental action
is always followed by bodily or mental
reaction, a state of fatigue of greater or
lesser degree, which is natures cue that
rest is needed. For that reason our work
is intermittent, a period Of work must be
followed by a period of rest, but in our
ceaseIess ambition this law Of health is
often disregarded. We spur on the jaded
system with stimulants which also have
their reaction and in the end the latter
condition is worse than the first There g
little need to speak of the effect of alco-
holic stimulants; we have horrible eX-
amples' of the results everywhere about
US But many a temperance advocate is
Incorporate in uses of Stimuants in his
everyday life.
Tea, for example, is a stimu1ant which
is as injurious to the system as alcohol.
Strong tea is an irritant poison, acting
directly and abnormally upon the nervous
system and destroying digestive power, as
Is shown by the nervous agitation the
muscular tremor, the sense Of prostration,
palpitation, constipation and dyspepsia.
Tea is a true stimulant, exciting vital
action and consequently increasing waste
of tissue, but it is not a food in any
sense and does not aid in the formation
or repair of tissue Its uses as a stimu-
liant is therefore irrational since it is det-
rimental to health and life. Its use as an
invigOrator is fallaciOus for it is really
the reverse; it is facilitating.

First Sold as Pauacea.

When tea was first introduced it was
sold by druggists as panacea for every
i'll, and even now in some parts Of the
East it is prescribed as household
remedy. It was only natural, considering
the apparent benefits conferred by its
empirical use that tea should be ccnsid-
cred a household necessity and become
as staple an article of trade as -four and
sugar. So medicine lost ~ beautiful drug,
for physician who should prescribe tea
would be called All cold woman's DOCTOR
and thus society added another article
to its long list of luxuries which 1t does
not need, but must have at any cost,
even that of health.
Every well-regulated establishment is
self-supporting at least and ought to lay

human body Is regulated by as common
sense laws as any business firm, and is
indeed a business firm made up Of
number of copartners, each having a spe-
cial duty to perform which it alone can
do. The capital of this corporation is
"Vital Force" and each partner has
proportionate share in the expenditure;
each partner is supposed to utilize his
capital to the best advantage Of HIM
self and his colleagues. If one spends
more than his proportionate share with
out an adequate return the others must
lose and suffer thereby, and If this is
continued 1t means final insolvency and
dissolution Of the corporation. Now let
rs consider a question in economy. A

''Take care of yourself" !" say our friends.
"Tu try to-" we answer. We do take little
care, yet in spite of warm clothes, rubbers
and mackintoshes, an army of people were
bowied out by pneumonia and other lung
and chest diseases last winter. They
caught cold neglected it, let it fix upon
them, were torn by coughs, choked by
infiammations and congestions, wasted by
fever, tired out by pain and then gave up
the fight. The hour you realize that you
have a cold on the chest, place a Benson's
Porous Plaster where the pain or oppres-
sion Is felt. If you think two are needed
make it two. No harm if you were COW
cred with them. They act quickly and
prevent the engagement of blood in the
organs. In this way-with ordinary eau
