NEWELL'S DANCING CLASS COTILLlON NIGHT WAS
 MOST SUCCESSFUL AFFAIR

Thursday evening, Feb. IS, was the annual cotillion night of W. Gilbert
 Newells dancing class at his studio in the Masonic Temple. There were
 about POO guests of the class which numbers over 75. The hall was gayly dressed for the occasion with Ameri- can flags and streamers of bunting. The cotillion was divided into thirteen numbers and was led by William J. Lee and Miss Elizabeth Newell. The principal numbers were the Serpentine dance and the Battle of the Confetti. In the Serpentine dance small wires were arranged across the large hall and streamers of many colors were thrown about and clung to the wires, presenting a very pretty picture. In the Battle of the Confetti a large American flag was fitted up in the center of the hall and all the young ladies of the class gathered under it. At g. given signal the guides of the flag were let loose and the confetti gradually descended to the floor of the hall and on the young ladies, who were beautifully gowned for the oc- casion. Favors were distributed dur ing some of the numbers and were greatly enjoyed by all.

GOLD BILLINGS
 NOT THE THING Time Was When They Were Quite the Proper Caper
 But This Is Past.
IDEA GIVES WAY TO
 SOMETHING BETTER
Porcelain As Filling for De- cayed Teeth Is Natural and Non -Detectable.

The dental proposition is one which confronts everybody sooner or later in life however diligently one may strive to avoid it. Those of you who nave for years known the comfort of possessing good sound teeth of your own, dread to think that the time may not be far off when worn out teeth must be replaced or decaying ones filled if you would keep them. Yet you cannot help realizing that soon your teeth will need care which can be given only by one who has made a special study of dentistry and thor oughly understands just what atten- tion of decayed or otherwise impaired tion is necessary to the preservation of decayed or otherwise impaired teeth.
 When this time comes it pays to employ the very best dental services which can be obtained. Dr. Weid- lich, Bridgeport's most widely known dentist, is recognized by all who have employed him as one thoroughly re- liable and competent to do any or all kinds of dentistry in manner past criticism.
 Time was when gold filings were considered quite the proper caper but like many other good things in this world that idea has had to give way to discovery of something even bet ter. The introduction of Porcelain in dentistry work has supplied long felt, if unexpressed want among that class of people whose refined tastes made them shrink from the thought of having their teeth filled with gold which, by its sharp contrast to the would reveal to even a chance obser- yer just about how many filings had been put into the mouth By the new method, though a dozen teeth may be filled, it would take an ex- pert to discover it, so closely does Porcelain resemble natural teeth. But you say, "all teeth are not blue white or yellow white." That is true but the Porcelain is especially prepared for each individual filling according to the color of the tooth to be filled and the replacing or filling of teeth is done with such great care and skill that no one but yourself and Dr. Weidlich need never know but what you have a. perfect set of sound natural teeth without 8 filling.
 Many people seem to feel a little bit shy about trying any methods not cus- tomary in dentistry for fear they are being exDerimented upon.
 If you feel that way why not make inquiry among the host of Dr. Weld lich's satisfied customers? Anyone of them will tell you that he does his work right the first time and stops at nothing short of perfection. A few years more and the Porcelain way will be the only approved method of dentistry.
 Now if your teeth need attention of any kind we invite you to cali and consult with pr. Weidlich, whose skill ed services. and never-ceasing pa- tience in all cases of tooth troubles and whose fine determination to please everybody, has brought him much Business and many friends. His of- fices are at No. 5 Citizens Bldg, over Kline Bros.

A New York friend of Cuticura writes the following interesting letter.
 My three year old son and heir, after being put to bed on a trip across the Atlantic, investigated the state room and located box of graham nenti - .,o box, it was found empty and the kid admitted that he had eaten the con tents of the entire box spread on the crackers. It cured him of g bad cold and I don't know what else."
 No more conclusive evidence than the above could be offered that every ingredient of Cuticura Ointment is ab- it may be safely eaten by young child, none but the most beneficial results can be expected to attend it's application to even the tenderest skin or youngest infant. This feeling is shared by mothers and nurses to such an extent that Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Oint- ment have for many years been unhesi- tatingly used throughout the civilized world for preserving, purifying and beautifying the skin, scalp, hair and hands of infants and children from the hour of birth. And greater still, if possible, is the confidence reposCd in Cuticura Remedies for the treatment of COrCur1ng ana dlsngurlng numors or the skin and scalp. The suffering which they have thus alleviated among the young and the comfort they have af- forded worn-out and worried parents have led to their adoption in countless homes as priceless agents in the speedy, permanent, safe and economical treat ment of infantile and birth humors, ec- zemas, rashes, irritations, inf1amma- tions and chafings, and other itching, scaly and pimply humors when all other remedies suitable for children fail.

HOME SCHOOL GIRLS
 BEAT THE BRISTOLS

The Bridgeport High School Girls Basketball team had no trouble Sat urday afternoon in defeating the Bris- tol High School team at the armory by the score of 12-3. The game was one-sided from the beginning, the lo- cal girls showing their superiority. The first half was rather tame, the local girls mainly preventing the visit ors from scoring. Miss Sullivan, who is on the sick list, gave way to Miss Rose, who put up a good game for a girl out of practice. Her blocking fea- tured. The locals used the passing game in the second half chiefly for practice, not wishing to roll up too big Q score on the visitors. Miss Wolcott was the star performer of the Bhistols The young lady was rather lively, fol- lowing the ball all over the court, rather. than her opponent. Some of her falls were spectacular.
