a New Paris Sleeve.

The sleeve is always moot ques-
ton at the beginning of season, and
this year, with the elbow sleeve done
to death by an insane popularity, is
no exception. The famous Partisan
dressmaker who is known for novel
ties and who is responsible for more
spectacular styles than one man ought
to wish to shoulder, is foisting a new
sleeve on his clientele. Whether it
will take, gods nor men cannot yet
say. It is full length and sheath
fitting, except at the elbow. where
there is some roominess if not an
actual puff. The openings of this
month have more to develop in this
line. Over in Psr.s the elbow sleeve
never had the vogue that it has had
here, and in fashionable gatherings
fully as many long as short sleeves
are to be seen.

HOW THEY SCORED.

A teacher in one of the public
schools was recently complimented
because of the success attending the
examination of her pupils. 1t was
noticed that her class of boys seemed
to be able to solve all problems.
When a question was asked every
boys hand in the class was raised.
The principal of the school was
putting the questions, and the lady
teacher would call on pupil to
make the answer Although more
than a score of questions were asked,
in no instance was an incorrect an
swer given. The principal was so
pleased at the result that he made
special reference to Miss Dash's pro-
ficiency as teacher in each of the
clasS-rooms he visited.
Probably envy was caused by the
fact that in no other classroom did
the pupils seem to be so well up IN
their studies. One of the teachers,
whose pupils did not acquit them
selves very creditably, made an inves-
tigation and succeeded in gaining the
confidence of one of the boys under
Miss Dash's care.
Nov, Johnny" said she, chow is it
that all you boys know the an
swers?"
But we don't all know said
Johnny.
But you all put up your hands as
if you did"
Miss Dash tells us all to put up
our hands when the question is asked.
We boys who don't know the answer
put up our left hands, and the boys
who know the answer put up their
right hands, and then Miss Dash only
asks the boys who have right
hand up

In aid OF the prevention of cruelty

the duchess has got up because it is
her own pet charity"

"Ohl Of course" answered Lady lisa

WEIGHT AND HEAL tn
THIN, NERVOUS PEOPLE NEED
THE TONIC TREATMENT.
This Woman Took Or. Williams Pink
Pills, Gained Thirty Pounds and
Has Seen Well Ever Since.

Pills, Gained Thirty Pounds and
Has Been Well Ever Since.
How many women-and men too
are suffering from general decline in
health which the ordinary remedies
seem unable to checkl How many hus-
bands see their wives wasting away,
steadily losing health and beauty, and
are powerles5 to helpi Consumption
and other germ diseases find in these
debilitated systems easy prey, for the
lowered vitality is unequal to the task or
fighting off the infection of these diseases
to which most of us are almost daily ex-
posed.
The symptoms indicating the decline
which may have results so fatal could
scarcely be better described than In the
statement of Mrs. William Manley, of
~ Court street, Utica, N. K. Her case
is typical one. She says:
For six months after the birth of my
baby, suffered from sick, dizzy head
aches, which seemed like q rush of
blood to my forehead, lust back of NV
eyes. Some days they twitched SO i
could hardly see and black spots fioated
before them. The least exertion BROUGHT
on this sickness. My appetite was poor
and was often sick to my stomach.

had sinking spells and grew pale and
nervous. was so thin that weighed
only 95 pounds.
''One day when at the drug store to
get headache powders decided to try
DR.. Williams Pink Pills instead. /
soon noticed that my headache was dis
appearing and my nerves gradually
grew stronger. The pills gave me
hearty appetite and / now weigh over
100 pounds. believe the pills to be the
best tonic and builder a woman can take,
as they certainly helped me when my
condition was critical and l have never
been seriously i'll since.'
The great value of DR.. Williams Pink
Pills lies in the fact that they actually
make new blood and this carries health
and strength to every portion of the
body. The stomach is toned up, the
nerves are strengthened, every organ is
stimulated to do its work.
If you are i'll and the treatment you
are taking does not cure you, write for
proof Of what DR.. Williams Pink Pills
have done in similar cases.
Your druggist sells them or they will
be sent by mail, postpaid, on receipt OF
price, so cents per box, six boxes for
$3.50, by the DR.. Williams Medicine Co.,

A very neat and useful powder pug
is made in the following way: Cut a

casing near the edge and thread with
ribbon. In the very center attach a
smallround puff that may be bought
anywhere. Powder sprinkled on this
now and then is all that is necessary
and the pun is washable. When the
