There are still other great features to
dwell upon in speaking Of this years re-
markable program. and not half enough
space az hand to do justice TO the many
foreign artists who are appearing in

The foreign agents OF the show ransacked
all Of Europe and Asia during last win-

PUBLIC SENTIMENT
WITH TEACHERS.
Now Likely That Council Will
Allow Larger ApprOpria-
ton for Them

The showing made by the teachers
Of the public schools who appeared
before city Council. 300 strong. on
Thursday night, to urge that body to
appropriate money to the Board Of Edu-
cation so that their salaries might be
Increased. has had It's effect on the
citizens Of the city.
The spectacle Of 800 employees Of the
city, in It's educational department, APP
pearing I'm body before Council. with
a demand for more wages, to compare
with other cities of the sari3 size as
Wilmington, has made food for thought
and public sentiment has been aroused
in favor of the teachers.
Miss Ellen Samworth, one OF the
public school principals, the leader Of
the school teachers in their fight for
more salary, is entitled TO much credit
for her efforts in behalf of the teach
crs and the latter appreciate this SER
vice.
Miss Samworth's argument assisted
by that OF Superintendent OF Schools
Twtmycr before Council is believed TO
have had the desired effect and Coun-
ell Is expected 10 make some provi-
sion for the teachers.

GUARDED SECRET OF THE
HAREM REVEALED.

Secrecy is suggested in the very word
Harem. To look upon the face Of one
behind the veil" except by command of
the Sultan, or in case Of absolute neces-
sity. such as the professional visit of
dentist, or physician, means death to
the beholder
These ladies Of the Harem. while ig-
norant, judged from our educational
standpoint, have carried the many
dainty little niceties that go to make
up a well-groomed woman, to a great
er state of perfection than those of
any other nation. and it is a constant
study with the INTO procure the finest
soaps, cosmetics and dentifrices OBJ
tainable to enhance and preserve their
beauty. For many years the superior
ity Of the American dentist has been
recognized and none other is employed
TO care for their teeth.
1t is an interesting fact that while
the dentist is operating he is con-
sanity guarded by an armed attendant
who stands upon the opposite side Of
the chair ready at a moments notice
to kill him should he attempt the slight
est familiarity. The same care that
is given TO the appointment Of a den
tist is also shown in the selection Of
their dentifrice.
BY the Sultan's command skillful
chemists were sent TO all parts of the
world to select a dentifrice of abso-
lutte purity and efficiency for use in
the Harem. Upon their return these
gentlemen all agreed upon one point.
that DIR. L. w. Lyons Tooth Powder,
prepared by an eminent American dem
tist, was the one 10 be selected be-
cause. while it thoroughly cleanses and
beauties the teeth and imparts a re-
freshing fragrance to the mouth and
breath, it is the only dentifrice that
was found to be absolutely free from
acids, grit, or any injurious substance.
And now as a result Of their inves-
tigation the dainty blue enamel box Of
DR.. Lyons Perfect Tooth Powder, with
its patent telescope measuring tube.
may be found upon the dressing table
of every beauty of the Sultan's Harem.

every week 10 the Sunday Chicago Rec
ord Herald have no idea that she is II
years old, for she still writes with all the
vigor and discernment of a woman Of half
her years. Huge AS the task may seem,
she gives her personal attention to the
vast correspondence shat her position Of
expert adviser on household topics in
wolves and every question is ans cred
directly by her. No other department.
of the Sunday Record n erald Is more
universally popular than hers
Another department that pushes it
closely, however, is Dame Curtsey's
Novelties in Entertainment which has
been hailed with JOY by thousands OF
hosteses who feel the need of new ideas.
Dame Curtsy, whose real name is Ellye
Howell Glover seems TO have genius
for lDventing fresh schemes for decora-
lions, menus, games and all the detail g
that lend zest To dinners and entertain
ments. She also answers questions per-
tanning to etiquette and good TASTE, and
otherwise furnishes just the information
so often sought vainy by women
When it is added that the Sunday
Magazine Of the Record Herald is full of
good stories and articles as inter ing to
Wor1en as to men, it is easy to see why
that paper is favorite among women.
