THE BUREAU TOP.
NuxEest1ons That May Save Time and Temper In Dressing.


 Perhaps wome,l young and old, are about tired oe listening to scrlnonettes concerning tic condition of their bu- rcau drawers. but 1t seems there are still few subject to criticism. How ever. regardless of the appearance of an untidy drawer. 1t is decidedly in convenient
 Suppose, for instance, woman IS dressing in q hurry. There ensues an excited hunt for certain collar or pin which is a strain on the temper and causes the contents of the drawer to be tossed up in worse confusion than ever. Suppose that the woman is not in a hurry; the Inconvenience still re mains, and it takes her good deal longer time to dress than is necessary. Also, her pretty things are mussed and soon unit for use. When a woman once becomes used to q neat, systematic ar rangement of her ties and belts and handkerchiefs and little things" she cannot manage at all without it.
 The first suggestion along this line is, have as few accessories as possible. Sometimes half the contents of draw CTS and boxes are utterly useless, just collections of various things from time to time that are never worn. The an- cient maxim, "A place for everything. and everything in it's place. applies here. It is not practical, however, to attempt to lay things in neat piles in a drawer. They will stay in the said piles, with the strictest care, about five minutes. The best idea, without a doubt, is to have boxes of various sizes set in a drawer, each with lid that lifts on hinges. The boxes with lids that come off and on are more or less inconvenient.
 On the bureau top there may be glove box, a handkerchief box, jewel box, veil box and so on, but with all these there is the collection of little things that have no special places. Let there be box for shoestrings and cor set faces, box for plain linen hand dignity in the box on top), box for plain ties. box for fancy stocks, a box for strings of beads, a box for belts and girdles, q box for common pins, box for ribbons, and so on. This does seem like a multitude of boxes. but most of them are small. and they do keep t., nes in bounds. Fer little or no expense they can be made very neat and pretty.

Injurious Habit.

The habit of sleeping late on Sunday mornings by those who are accustomed to rise early throughout the week Is injurious, said a visiting physician of Seney hospital, Brooklyn, in an inter view recently. because 1t disarranges the regular habits of living and even predisposes to real illness. "Women who sleep six or eight hours one day and ten or twelve the next are rarely physically well, for their daily habits of living c~e too irregular. One day too much rest. the next day too little and as a result irregular meals and disturbed order of the day" he said If women would sleep properly, talk ing just enough, and that as regularly as is possible, and then have some out door work or recreation when the sun is shining. there would ca.@.a,n!i' = le.s' illness.

SCREEN CozY CORNER.

past It's successor is nook artistic enough to suit every reasonable re- quirement and yet not infringe upon hygienic rules. Not every admirer of the cozy corner. however, can devote the necessary space to it. especially the apartment house dweller, and therefore ingenuity is called into play and the most effective use is made of whatever space is at the command of the mis- .tress of the house.
 An instance of this ingenuity is seen in the accompanying sketch, where a handsome old Japanese lacquer screen is utilized to form cozy corner with successful results. The hinges have been made fast at the ends of the back formed by the three panels as well as at the junction of these three panels with those on either side of it. A nov able double hinge is fixed between the fourth and fifth panels to the left and the feet turned inward. as indicated in the sketch. Brooklyn Eagle.

"Nancy Brown"

A big cast of talented playa-s, q dozen or so catchy songs which w.ll become instantaneous'y popular, scenic production which will prove revelation in the art of stagecraft and chorus of forty of the prettlest girls you have ever seen on any stare will be the principal features of the big Wells, Dunne and Harlan produc- tion of "Nancy Brown which Will De next weeks attraction at the Elks theater. The fact that this b sue cess broke all records in it's run at the Biiou theater. New York, and that it has also proven one or the strongest drawing attract ons ever presented in the leading cities Of the country is proof positive of it's merit and pleasing capacity. The scenes are laid in the picturesque court ef the Bey of Ballyhoo in the orient and the plot deals with the adventures of Nancy Brown, an American matrlmo- nial agent who brings to the court a coterie of heiresses, whom she de- sires to marry off to titled noblemen The crown prince, son of the bey, IS her especial object. but he fails to be- come enamored of the bevy of beau- ties she has brought with her, and falls in love With her much to her embarrassment In the meantime a ouartet of impecunious noblemen ap- pear on the scene and all sorts of complications fellow, which culml- nate almost in a revolution when a fresh Yankee drummer appears on the scene and posts bills on the sacred white elephant. There is lot climax and grand mix-up which Nancy finally straightens out with rare diplomacy and all ends happily. The fun is fast and furious all the way through the comedy and the mu- sical numbers are highly delighting respited from the side splitting merrl- ment that prevails. The spectacular effect from start to finish is highly artistic and the entire production in keeping with that high standard which Wells, Dunne and Harlan have set and always maintained. The pro- duction will be seen here in it's entire tv and will doubtless repeat it's form, CT successes everywhere. Thursday ] February 1.

"The Eternal City,

No one who sees sThe Eternal City" will doubt it's greatness for moment. A play written by that fas- cinating author, Hall Caine. a play to which he has given practically two years of his life, a production sapor- latiye in it's magnitude, and u7on which money, time and labor has been expended without a st nt, a cast of characters which beside the ev2r popular and talented Jane Remark. embraces not only two or three, but half a dozen of Americas leading ac- tors men and women all of whom have enjoyed great honors in the pro- fession-such are the component parts of the play. It is production and a play that stands as far above the ordinary production as the human mind can conceive Some of the cri, :cs have concluded it is melodra- ma. Well, when one considers the questionable colGr and lack of inter- est of some of the so-called problem plays" he is inclined to exclaim: slf this is melodrama, let us have more of it." Certainly. "The Eternal City, is great and fascinating play and one which throbs with human inter- est. from the rise of the first curta n to the fall of the final one. The Eternal City, will appear at the Elks theater tonight.

A QUESTION OF COST.

In any number of stores you'll see various prepara- tions of cod liver oil at as many different prices. You'll wonder, perhaps, why Scott's Emulsion costs more than some other kind in as large a bottle. Hearing only one side of the question you may be led into buying the "just as good as Scott's " at the lower price. That's false economy. Scott's Emulsion costs more because it's more expensive to make. Every ingredient is tested and guar anteed of the purest quality. NO adulteratlOn, no shaving of quality. There's no ecoa- omy in bargain medicine. If you can afford to experiment with your health, substitutes may satisfy you. We take it, however, that you want a pure preparation, a reliable remedy and something that's going to help you. That's what you get in Scotts Emulsion. Thirty years the standard.

Why Beverly Was Called Beanto,yn.

The town of Beverly, Mass, was set off from the town of Salem more than POO years ago. About that time, 1t Is said, schooner with a full cargo of beans entered that port. This supplied the whole town with beans; hence the name given to the inhabitants, "Bever- ly Beaners." In 1G87 the town of Bev- erly voted to impose tax of 10 shil- lings on all future absentees from town meetings. In 1754 twenty eight slaves were owned in the town. The first Sunday school in America was estab- lished in Beverly in 1910.

Ready to go Back.

Releas ed from the State Reformatory at
Railway month ago, Theodore Cole,
young negro. of Burlington, is now being
held for court in default of 81, 600 bail on
the charge of attempting to kill Frank
Strickland, white man. Cole fired six
shots from revolver at Strickland while
the two were walking together in the
street.
The negro had borrowed the revolver
from his white companion for the purpose
of shooting dog which he said had been
bothering him. AS the two were walking
together in the street, he suddenly turned
on his companion and drawing the gun
began firing at him without warning.
Strickland lodged behind tree as a bull
/ let whizzed close to his head. He then
ran down an alley and was going through
q side street when he again ran into his
would be assassin face to face. Cole again
cut loose with the gun and fred FIVE shots
point blank at the white man. The bullets
struck all around Strickland. bat he es
capped unscratched and and ran to the cor
ner and notified police officer who cap
tured Cole and put him under arrest.
Cole served time in the Railway Refer
matory for larceny and Is regarded by thu
police as bad character. He would Civ

Freeholders Indicted.

Thirteen Freeholders of Ocean county
lined up before the bar of justice Friday
morning, pleaded guilty to malfeasance in
Office and exceeding appropriations. were
held up by county Judge Martin as an ex-
ample to the other municipal boards of the
county and each fined 800 and costs.
The Court said that it was extremely leni-
ent, that it might have imposed fine of
81, 900 and given sentences of seven years
in the penitentiary.
Wilkinson G. Conrad, former county
collector of Barnegat, the president of the
Tuckerton bank, pleaded not guilty to
nine indictments for separate charges Of
embezzlement. There were also two In
dictments for embezzlement against the
director of the present board. former
county judge James E. Otis, of Tucker
ton, to which he pleaded not guilty. vii
liam t. Giberson, Toms River lumbe
dealer and bridge builder, also pleaded
not guilty to two indictments for obtain
ing money under false pretenses by mean
of padded bills.
Most of the crookedness unearthed b
the recent investigation escaped indict
ment under the two-year statute of limi
tations.
1t was shown that Freeholders ha
worked their own teams on public WORK
paying more for them than the marke
rate, that they drew money in bulk to pa
labor and turned over to the county n
itemized account of how 1t had bee
spent, that they furnished the count
goods from their own swamps. 1t was a
so in sworn testimony that payrolls ha
been padded and that the men who did tn
work in numerous instances did not g
what the county was charged.

The Circular Nuisance.

When the Township Committee passed
an ordinance having for its purpose the
adjustment of distribution of circulars
the majority of which were blown around
the streets or over private lawns, there
was an objection on the part of those who
used that means of announcement of their
business, the claim being that the Town
ship Committee had no power to enact
such an ordinance that it was interference
with private rights, that no other town
did it, and so on and so forth.
One business man was loud In his excla-
nations, and kept right on with the habit,
practically defying the authorities and
counting arrest, with the avowed intention
of testing the legality Of the ordinance by
submitting to the judgment of the justice
Of the peace and then carrying the matter
to higher court But all this brave ides
seems to have got lost Instead of having
the test, the manager, each time. he hal
been hauled before the justice, has hat
the case pushed aside on tech
nicalities instead of having it tried on 1T
merits This savors very much of bah,
play, and indicates that the accused i
afraid to test the ordinance as has been 81
