You Must
Sleep.

If YOU cannot, it is due to an irri
tated or congested state of the brain,
which will soon develop into nervous
prostration.
Nature demands sleep, and it is
as important as food; it is a part
of her building and sustaining pro-
cess. This period of unconscious
ness relaxes the mental and physical
strain, and allows nature to restore
exhausted vitality.
DR.. Miles Nervine brings refresh
ing sleep, because it soothes the If
ritation and removes the conges-
ton.
1t is also nerve builder; it nour-
ishes and strengthens every nerve in
your body, and creates energy in
all the organs.
Nothing will give strength and
vitality as surely and quickly as DR..
Miles Nervine.

condition. was SO nervous l could not sleep.

The present week has been interesting
from many viewpoints. 1t had dinners.

boasts today in the fancy-dress pageant
at the Diapers an event of overwhelming
Importance to the Juvenile world Old ia
vorites and new ones have been the special
guests at the dinners, and the Mi-Careme
meeting of society at the Wadsworths an
swered the old-time demand for celebra-
ton of mid-Lent. Now that the halfway
station is passed Easter possibilities and
proba abilities loom up with the Importance
they deserve. The weather lately has been
all that lovers of outdoor life could desire,
and the effect of not only spring but sum-
mer attire in muslin dresses and suitable
accomplishments has never been attained as
early and as completely. Garden party
dates. which are so frequently signalzed by
return of bad weather, would have been
tremendously successful lately, when all the
conditions looked propitouS. The races,
however, are using up the surplus outdoor
energy and are the reason for much i'm
promDtu entertaining for the automobiling
and coaching sets Save for the usual num-
Der of dinners the next fortnight is not
likely to be otherwise socially exciting along
the banks of the muddy Potomac. The last
week of Lent is generally quiet, making the
contrast between it and the after-E Easter
season. which begins April a. the more
enjoyable.
The departure of Mrs. Roosevelt and the

the case until tomorrow 20 allow AS
sistsnt District Attorney Rand 10 be
present, the justice asked II the adjourn
ment would necessitate the presence Of
Miss Patter son IN court at that time.
II do not want a repetition OF this
scene with It's retinue and following in
this court room." he said
1T appears TO me that IL would be en-
tirely unnecessary 10 require the pres
encs Of this prisoner IN event OF the re-
quest for an adjournment OF the hearing
being granted"
Assistant District Attorney Johnstone
replied that ne saw no reason why she
should be taken TO court again and the
adjournment was granted. As the
