Safe, Sure and Speedy.

No external remedy ever yet de-
vised has so fully and unquestionably
met these three prime conditions as
successfully as Allcock's Plasters.
They are safe because they contain
no deleterious drugs and are manu-
featured upon scientific principles of
medicine. They are sure because
nothing goes into them except ingre-
dents which are exactly adapted to
the purposes for which a plaster is re-
CURED. They are speedy in their ac-
ton because their medicinal qualities
go right to their work of relieving
pain and restoring the natural and
healthy performance of the functions
of muscles, nerves and skin.
Allcock's Plasters are the original
and genuine porous plasters and like
most meritorious articles have been
extensively initiated. therefore always
make sure and get the genuine.

"Time" Dinner for the
Early January Days.

For the table c~enterpiece suspend a
circle of green or red from the can
deiabra by broad ribbons or scarlet
tulle; the circle is the emblem of
eternity or time" Then from this
circle hang a toy watch, one for each
guest. For a place card use a small
hour glass, the card resting against
the glass with the name and an APP
propriate quotation written on II.
New Years post cards are suitable
for invitations and place cards; they
are very attractive and much in
vogue, being so inexpensive and easy
to prepare-two very important
things with most people.
Have the bon-bon boxes square,
covered with red or green crepe pa
per; on the cover, paste a tiny calen-
dar, tie around with a ribbon, the
bow at the top.
Make a bell-shaped booklet and
write in the New Years resolutions

down original resolutions to be read
aloud.

exploits OF science.
So accustomed have the reading public become to the exploits of the
press agent that when a legitimate bit of news is printed it is regarded
with suspicion.
Why must needs be exploited, as a hunter of great game, a iiu-isu
expert, or a trapeze genius before can achieve Shakespearian success is
beyond me.
The press agent would have me lose jewels that he might, with the
romance OF Dumas, describe their value, and then, with the ingenuity OF
Poe, discover them on my manlepiece, where perchance had placed then

at large. speak not of myself alone, but Of actors as a professional class
A lawyer is known as a lawyer and refers you to the results that he has
achieved before the bar. Who cares whether he eats cream or Worcester
shire upon his strawberries? A doctor achieves his reputation through the
cures he effects, not because his idle hours are consumed in collecting pic
toral postcards. But the actor. Alas! he is pursued with a demoniac
presidency.

Economy Made Possible
by the NeW Fashions.

For the woman who has tried to
think of a way to piece out a gown,
street Or evening coat, or even a fur
jacket, the combination sleeve is safe,
both for now and to hold over. 1t is
the extreme and newest Paris dress
maker notion to equip a gown with en-
tirely different sleeves, as of velvet
or silk. The color will match, but the
material is different. Again, it is of
the same material treated differently,
as braiding it all over or covering it
with lace. A silk sleeve covered with
gay embroidery is a feature IT even
ing coats, also of the litt!r coats.
Some of these have the bo0y o. fur
and the sleeves of velvet or silk
matching the the fur in color. Tartan
velvet set into brilliant cloth is one
of the pretty developments OF the
pinafore gown made with no other
touch of the plaid velvet except a pip
ing in the girdle and the bit that
shows through the elongated armhole.
Another new old fashion rs the re-
turn of the different front panel. What
The possessor calls a little at home
gown'-half low and with elbow
sleeves-shows the combination idea
in a charming and convenient way.
IL is OF striped lowered taffeta, the
skirt being made with a front panel
of white chiffon gagged across in two
or three places. A deep girdle of silk
of a contrasting color brings the skirt
up to short wasted length and a dear
little short round waist of the white
chiffon meets the girdle, or rather is
shirred around its bottom edge where
it barely laps over the girdle top. The
upper edge is shirred also, forming q
little round neck.

he WANTED LIVE NEWS.
Correspondent Had No Time to waste
with Vice President.

vice President Fairbanks stopped
a newspaper man the other day, and
good.naturedly asked explanation OF
an incident which happened years
ago. On that occasion Mr.. Fairbanks
and the correspondent were chatting
pleasantly. when suddenly the latter
moved away to meet Senator Chand-
Ter Of Maine. The vice president said:
81 have always had great curiosity to
know why you deserted me that day"
The newspaper man hesitated for a
moment. and then replied: To tell
you the truth, Mr.. Vice President, you
are a mighty dry source Of news. You
may have a nose for news. but
doubt 1t; at any rate, you V give
up any. Now, when a newspaper man
is cunning for big, live news he hasn't
got time to stop and exchange small
talk with a man, even If he be a sen.
ator, who would not know the price OF
news II he saw it." Mr.. Fairbanks
smiled. II thank you for your frank
ness" he said. II see | shall have to
cultivate a nose for news"

Earrings are the style now, OF the little screws but the long Partisan

Women with pretty ears know many little ways of making them still

Caracul Most Popular Fur.

CaraHul is unquestionably the most
popular of the medium priced furs
this winter, and is seen made up in
elaboratetly trimmed short jackets,
as well as in the long, loose wraps.
A short fur is scarcely practical, but
it is fashionable, nevertheless, but the
long wrap al be worn over any
style of dress, from a velvet recep-
ton gown to a short walking skirt.
Instead of wearing a velvet jacket
many women now prefer to have a
handsome velvet gown, with a fur
o which can be left in the car
riage or slipped off before entering
the reception room. Brown caracul
is more attractive, and gray, with a
gown to match, makes an exquisite
costume, Black. however, is more
generally seen, while the white cara,
cul for dress wear solely is particu
larry smart.

Whine from Henry James.

Henry James, pursuing his theme,
THE Speech of American Women"
speaks of a group of Boston young
women, "all articulating as from sore
mouths, all mumbling and whining
and vocally limping and shutting as it
were together" He compares, also to
it's great disadvantage. a school where
parents pay so much not to have their
boys taught to speak as gentlemen,
with one beyond the sea, in which
the proviso that the schoolmaster
shall speak as a gentleman is SO abso-
lutely vital"

Wby Married Wcmer

by DR.. WILLIAM j. GALLIVAN,
Ex-President OF Boston School Committee.

RIGS becomes at once bound to an obligation greater than any other. Hr
paramount, her al-important duty is to her home. 1t is the first duly
which she must consider, and it takes precedence of all other consdera-
tons. Marriage as a kind of agreeable eomradeship, invoking few or no
domestic responsibilities other than those which hired service might render
is nc marriage at all.
1t is absurd for any woman who marres and contemphtes the rearing
of a family to hope TO engage in employment so exacting rs that of a
teacher in the public schools without sacrificing the interests of the home
Indeed, it may be said that a married woman cannot possibly be a good
wife and mother and a good teacher in the public schools at the same time
She will be deficit in one regard or the other. Motherhood imposes upon
her the obligation of teaching her own little flock of pupils, and she will
find that she has all that she should undertake 10 perform this duty
properly.
To the statement that some women marry with no expectation
Of dieontinuing employment or of assuming the duties and re-

be made that such women ought not

unprecedented activity to-day in phHanthropic, charitable
and social policies finds its expression in the home-school ALI
ance in medical inspection, in school nurses. in feeding school
HR2MJ children, and in the care of the abnormal child. Each of these
GG&8AI functions belongs to the home. Is the school then an usurper
& H1 when it attempts to fulfill any or all of these duties?
IS8PI As physicians, we know that mental and physical defects
OG0 among school children exist TO a surprising extent, that many
49, of these defects re remedablc with a great gain to the child
that undertaking is more prevalent than Is supposed, that
many of these poorly fed children could overcome the handicap of a bad
start if boldly nutrition was kept somewhere near actual requirements.
No remedy can be most effective until the cause of the evil is known
These causes exist in both the school life and the home life Of the child.
At home we find the matcraistic influences of modern social life, the
indifference o neglect of guardians. the disregard for rghtful authority.
the results of genuine poverty, and finally the imposshlity for the home to
keep in touch with the schoo.
Causes inherent in the school are the multiplication of the branches
taught the absence of NATURALIZATION. the lack of data whereby the rca-
tive physical and mental development of each child is known. the grading
system, and lastly the absence of any connecting link between the tome and
the school
Any measures to correct or minimize the evils in school curGtula are
obviously within the rights of the school-in fact i. is a duty. When, hos
ever, the school points out the defects of individual pupils, groups of pupils
or in the home life of such, it has gone as far as moral OF legal right allows
To attempt to carry out by force the measures of relief suggested, no matter
how good in themselves, would be usurpaton.
1t is possible, nevertheless, to carry instruction and persuasion into
homes where force and coercion would not be tolerated, and where example
and preccpt can accomplish incacuabe good for the home, the school, the
individual and the state. Nurses under school supervision only can
do this without the usurpahon of the home, or the manufacture of
paupers. To develop and strengthen
home authority should be the end -N
sought. VIVID E~~~~T~S
