I'AKTIES, WEDDINGS AND TEAS
The Gamut of the Week's Events Sounded
in Short Paragraphs-Guests and en
tertainers Personal Mention Re
dueed to a Compact Compass.
The interest and attention of the so
cial world Is at present centered In the
Klrmess to be given at the Frothlns
ham next week for the' benefit of the
Lackuwanna hospital, and as a result
there have been few Important social
functions.
" Those who give an Impetus and stand
ing to the social life of Bcrantun ar
engaged working for the success of the
Klrmess, the proceeds of which are to
go to assist In soothing pain and mak
ing comfortable the diseased and in
jured. After the Klrmess Is over there will,
undoubtedly, be a revival of the usual
guyetles that mark the winter season,
and between now and Lent the season
will be u merry one.
The Klrmess will begin Monday and
continue (through the week, a matinee
being given each afternoon except
Monday. At the matinees the children
will dance. Kach evening separate
groups of from fifteen to thirty-two
girls and young men will appear In
some of the following dances, each
dance having special chaperons: "Ger
man Harvest," "Maypole," Military,"
"Tarantelle" (Kalian), "Indian," "Gyp
sy," "Scotch," "Spanish." "Highland,"
"Breton Pardon" (French). The move
ments of body and feet,, costuming
and figures collectively comprise a
study peculiar to the name and signlflc
ence of each dance, of which a more
detailed description Is made elsewhere.
During the matinees will be given only
the dances in which the children par
ticipate. These dances ujsu have their
chaperons and consist of a "Japanese
Cuurt," "Carnival," "Rose and Bee,"

Get Strong Before Debilitating
Spring Comes Again,
Feed the Worn-Out Brain with
Pnlne's Celery Compound.
Let Changing Season Find System
in Health.
Take the Great Remedy That
JIakes People Well.
A perfectly healthy body has Its parts
completely nourished and Its nerves
constantly refreshed and stored with
energy from the vigorous blood that
all the time bathes It.
But to do this important work of
conveying aufllclent nutrition to the
tissues, the blood must be kept rich
and full of red corpuscles.
The only trouble with two-thirds of
the men und women whom the coming
spring will claim for Us victims is a
pitiful lack of proper nerve food. What
these weak, nrvous people need Is a
more general feeding and storing of
their blood "and' tissues with fresh,
highly vitalized .material. There is un
doubtedly nothing that can compare
with Professor Phelps' remarkable dis
covery, Faine's celery compound, for
restoring health and strength.
The great body of physicians
throughout the United States, Eng
land and Canada believe profoundly In
It, and prescribe It In all cuses of nerv
ous weakness and debility. In prepar
ing this greatest of all nerve tonics
and blood-rentnvers, the eminent pro
fessor of Dartmouth college, Kdward
K. Phelps, M. D., I-L. D., had in mind
the countless men and women with
brains overworked and nerves un
strung 'by worry and lack of proper
nutrition.
Clerks, their employers, lawyers, doc
tors, mothers of families, hard work
ing men and women in every state and
country, and hosts of brain workers
the most Intellectual part of the com
munity are today taking Paine's cel
ery compound, with the happiest re
sults, to relieve themselves of rheuma
tism, .neuralgia, nervous exhaustion,
dyspepsia, sleeplessness and low spir
its. Paine's celery compound cures dis
ease of the Important organs of diges
tion, circulation and excretion, by puri
fying the blood, by regulating the en
tire nervous system a.nd supplying the
body with strength to combat disease.
Paine's celery compound makes peo
ple well. It takes away all the tremor
and Irritability from the nerves, and
gives that calm, strong feeling of as
sured health ithat invariably accompa
nies a perfectly well-nourished bodily
system.
