There Is a field for the enterprising
.young woman who will set her wits to
..work devising cotillion figures and fa
vors. The changes In cut rent events,
the fads of thu day and the brief vogue
, In tho repltltlon of historical oventi
.itford scope for Imagination and even
genius. People who give elaborate
cotillons are able to pay for Ideas
which will offer original and attractive
methods of entertaining their guests
iiiulu girl who, in her spare moments
could plan new figures would meet
with considerable (Inaclal success. The
warn )n China, South Africa and the
Philippines afford opportunities for
pretty military figures nnd favors.
Some of tho popular books nnd plays
which nowadays nre synonymous
terms, provide another Interesting Held.
A "David Ilarum" figure could tie
made extremely amusing while one nr
tauged from ldeus revived from "In
the Palace of the King." "IValglon,"
"The Little Minister," "The Cnrdinal's
Snuff Box," "When Knighthood Was
In Flowet" would promise much pleas
ure. The Issues of the day In great polit
ical and social events might bo utilized.
For Instance, nt a beautiful cotillon
not long ago, "The Full Dinner Pall"
was made a laughable figure. The
railway change.1 and the prospect of a
telephone to Mais might be likewise
ai ranged by clever brains to ndd to an
evening's entertainment.
Mr. nnd Mrs. F. II. Stiles and fam
ily, of Adams avenue, have returned

T'S BEEN a liorrld New Year."
snlcl a woman tho other tlay.
"Ah far us I nm concerned I'd
rather bo a back number for all tho
tulk about a new century. The old
century was good enough for mo. Kv
erythlng has fjonp wrong1 this year,
and If I've pot to keep on having
such a lot of worrlco an have torment
ed m for tho past ten days, I'm Just
tired of life, that's all."
"What Is tho matter with me?" She
repeated In response to a iiuestlon,
"Tho matter with me? Why I've Just
had an nwfut time nnd that's what's
the matter. I guess you'd think you
had troubles If you'd lost your lwcket
book with tho Christmas money from
your father and a pearl pin and a
recipe for preserved strawberries
where they stay whole: and then Jos
eph spilled a plate of Ice cream In my
lap tho very flrst night of the year
and spoiled my new party gown, and
the next day cousin Allco was taken
111 and nearly died, and wo lost Dotty,
our fox-terrier; and the other day a
water-plpo burst and ruined tho hall,
ct'illnc and 1 wanted Joo to run for
tho council nnd ho wouldn't; said
theic was nothing In It now, and tho
next day I heard something my dear
est friend said about me, and oh dear,
thoro aro Just heaps of horrid thing
I think It Is a hateful Now Year, so I
do!"
Thoie Is another lady whose bad
times began about Christmas and at
last accounts she had not been nblo
to break tho combination. In the first
place, Jmt before Christmas the maid
of-nli-work went homo very uncere
moniously to a sick mother or njine
other nllllctlon. The house mistress
recalled the sentiment entered by one
of Scranton's new-comers, who stated
with authority that "no real ladyi ever
does her own work," and a half
amused conjecture illtted over her
troubled mind whether she might not
temporarily wear a placard stating
"I am a real lady, I can prove tho
assertion by Jive different arguments."
when callers came unexpectedly, for
its hard to be mistress and maid at
one and the same time.
So with Christmas shopping and
needlewoik uncompleted, she donned
a big apron and went into the kitchen.
About that time along came tho
dressmaker with the calm announce
ment that owing to some chances In
her dates she could give her a few
days then or not at all. So tne ladv
hied herself down town for the neces
sary adjuncts to tho conversion of an
old frock Into a beautiful up-to-date
confection, nnd of course not a thing
would match, buL a certain velvet rib
bon with a wildly extravagant pi Ice
attached. Finally In desperation she
was compelled to buy It or have no
new dress, and of course it necessitat
ed the purchase of miles and miles ot
It, as May Irwin rcmaiked about tho
lace.
ChrlstmaH shoppers were bcver.il
deep and us my lady hastened across
the street after the ruinous expendi
ture of funds for that velvet ribbon,
she was Jostled by the crowd and u
moment later found that the inse
curely fastened parcel had allowed Ith
contents to es-cape and the oxtravug.int
velvet was missing. Search, question
ing and advertisements, proved equally
vain. The velvet was gone and the
discouraged lo&er had to content her
self with an Inferior trimming which
she will forever loathe, together with
tho gown which It made a pretense of
adorning;
That was only the beginning of her
woes. They followed In swift und dls
pliltlng succession. Amid nil of theo
a clear little spot of sunshine beamed.
It was the conviction that among her
gifts would be at least one thing which
wus exactly what she wanted and most
needed, nnd from a rolutlve who had
plainly asked for suggestions as to
what she would like. It was to be a
new gown a Mlk of daik quiet hue
and durable qualities. Tills wa a
beautiful thought and It sustained the
small affected community of that
household In many a doleful hour.
Christmas morning came. Truly
enough there was the large Hat parcel,
with sumptuous possibilities In Its
very correctness of corners. The re
cipient cut the cords with pleased im
patience. She ghve one swift look at
the contents and then Hung it far
acioss the loom and pieclpltately
went Into a heap and began to cry. On
the other side of the parlor swelling
blllowsofbllic and gold glittered In the
pale sun. "It will bo lovely tor a
lounge cover," she ctled hysterically,
nnd then oho laughed with Immoder
ate glee, or what was not glee but tho
misery of over strained nerves.
She Is a Httlo lady, whose frocks nre J
aiwavs miracles of taHte. This "sim
ple dark silk" was a truly marvelous
creation ot the loom. It's breadths
were covered by un Immense sprawl
ing design, one figure ot which would
have hidden the bodice of its owner
from shoulder to shoulder.. The col
ors were deep and radiant and dazz
ling. In which gold and peacock-blue
fought madly for supremacy. Its tex
ture was thick, soft and warranted to
wear. "What a merry Christmas this
Is," she sobbed, while her husband
thought In his Inmost soul: "What
queer creatuies womun nie to make
such a fuss over a little thing like that
when by cutting It on the bins unJ
adding a few tucks it would be nil
right."
Tho dear, blessed men! What a clcar
oyed peaceful view It must be to have
no complications In life which "cut
ting on the bias" or "adding a few
tucks" will not promptly set light.
But just the tamo this Is u very
hind and cruel world and it is all
stuffed with sawdust when the New
Year and the New Century starts In
nil twisted with a woman and to
crown her misfortunes street cur pass
es are obliterated from her slxteen-hour-a-day
schedule.
BEST IN ALL THE WORLD !
Paine's Celery Compound the Product of Brains and
Medical Experience.
After Years of 5tudy and Application, This Greatest of AH Remedies Was
Given to Mankind by the Ablest of Modern Physicians The Host
of Worthless Imitators That Followed It.
When the greatest of modern physi
cians, after yeats of practice and
close, scientific study, gave to tho sci
ence of medicine the most wonderful
remedy of the present day, a host of
linltatois sprung up.
No sooner was It announced that a
positive cure for nervous ailments, an
unfailing blood purifier, hud been dis
covered by Prof. Phelps, of Dart
mouth, and physicians everywhere
welcomed Paine's celery compound us
the moht-to-be-deslred discovery of a
time when modern ways of working
nnd living had begun to multiply dis
eases that arise fiom Impulred nerves
und Impure blood
When a great public demand arojie
for this remedy from one end of the
country to another, at once, as In
every such case, a lot of cheap fel
lows begnn to try to Impose upon
people one and another tiade medi
cine, sometimes harmful, always
worthless, claiming lor them the un
exampled properties of Paine's celery
compound.
Naturally, none of them ever sio
ceeded. None of them ever will.
Paine's celery compound made peo
ple well!
Tho aged and Infirm found In It new
ami lasting strength. Thousands of
women and men, tired out, run down,
despondent, sick, suffering with in
somnia, rheumatism, diseases of the
kidneys, regained" their health, and
strength, and buoyancy by tho well
advised use of Paine's celery com
pound. As a great leader and writer
In Boston publicly declared one day,
Paine's celery compound hud proven
Itself to be ns much better than ull
the ordinary nervines, sarsuparlllas,
and trade preparations as the diamond
Is brighter than ordinary glass.
Fiom thousands of grateful persons
uusoljcited testimonials began to pour
In from those whom Paine's celery
tompound had benefited. The wealthy
and the poor, the famous und the
comparatively unknown, sent to the
proprietors of the temedy, to the news
papers, to their physicians, to their
friends, the glad news that here at
last they had found a remedy that
mado them themselves again!
And the foolish fellows with their
silly nostrums, stinting up hero and
there every year, discovered us often
ns they tiled It that, when a person's
health is at stake, he or sho will not
bo Imposed upon. Paine's celery com
pound was In greater demand last year
than the year before; the demand this
spring Is greater than for all the so
called spring icmedles combined. Peo
ple Insist upon having the one rem
edy that docs them good, makes them
strong, repairs their shattered
strength. They call for Paine's celery
compound I
Tho story of the Ufework of this
great physician has been often told,
and Is familiar to most readers.
Prof. Phelps was born in Connecti
cut, and graduated from the military
school at Norwich, Vt. He studied
medicine with Prof. Nathan Smith, of
New Haven, Conn., and graduated In
medicine at Yule,
His unusual tnlent soon brought him
reputation and piomlnenee. First he
was elected to the professorship of
anatomy and surgery In the Veimont
university. Next he was appointed
lecturer on mateila medico, and med
ical botany in Dartmouth college. The
next year he was chosen professor of
tho chair then vacated by Prof. Hobby,
and occupied the chair, the most Im
portant one In the country, at the
tlmo when he first formulated his
most remarkable prescription.
Today Paine's celery compound
stands without an equal for feeding
exhausted nerves and building up the
strength of the body. It cuies radical
ly nnd permanently. The neivoiw
prostration and general debility from
which thousands of women suffer so
long that It finally gets to oo a sec
ond nature with them .ill this suffer
ing and despondency cun he veiy soon
removed by properly feeding Un
nerves and replacing the unhealthy
blood by a fresher, more highly vital
ized lluld. A healthy lucieanc In ap
petite nnd a corresponding gain In
weight nnd good spirits follow th
use of Paine's celery compound.
Palno's celery compound is the most
remarkablo medical achievement of;
the last fifty years.
It makes people well. It Is tho ono
tiue specific recognised and prescribed
today by eminent practitioners for dis
eases uilslng from a debilitated ner
vous Bysttfw. Prof. Phelps gave to
his profession a positive cure for sleep
lessness, wustlng strength, dyspepsia,
biliousness, liver complaint, neuralgia,
theumutlsm, all nervous diseases and
kidney troubles. For nil such com
plaints Paine's celery compound has
succeeded agu' and again whens
everything else 1ms failed.
It Is as haimless as It Is good, and
It was the universal advice of the
medical profession that the compound
be placed whete the general public
could secure It, and thousands ot
people have year after year proven
tho wisdom of this good ndvice.
Only a truly great und effective lem
edy could continue, as Paine's celery
compound has done, to hold Its unri
valled place In the estiinutloti of the
ablest physicians and of the thous
ands of btiby men und women whose
only means of judging Is from the ac
tual results In their own home or
among their friends, No remedy
was ever so highly recommended,1
because notiu ever accomplished so
much.

The resignation yestetday of two
members tram the board of managers
of the Home for the Friendless iteulls
to the minds of those who have long
been Interested In that Institution tho
fact that time, surely and sadly, saps
tho activities of even the most ulert
and capable, nnd that our places must
bo filled sooner or luter as tho work
drops from our tired fingers.
Mrs. Hendrlck Is one of tho oldest
members In point ot service on tho
boa,rd. For many years sho did what
must be considered the most arduous
and wearisome tusk, that ot Investi
gating homes wheie ohlldren were
sent and looking after tho welfuro of
those Indentured, Conscientious, faith
ful and unshrinking In the duties
which were often tho reverse of ngtee-
l able, sho kept in touch with hundreds
of families nnd know the history of
nearly every man, woman and child In
beveral counties, To Mrs. Hendilck
the house mother appealed by letter
when the daughter newly adopted Into
the hearts und home was refractory,
"Come- down and talk to Mury," these
letteis icad, "nnd she will be good."
And go clown und talk to Maiy tho
faithful monitor was ceitalu to do.
with the (lesireu results.
It was to Mrs. Hendilck, too, that
tho little ones ciled for redress for leal
or fancied wrongs, and they knew
aright that they might tiust their
cause to that kind face nnd tender
heart.
Now, In falling health, she relin
quishes the burden to younger shoul
ders, but It Is with regiet that lier co
workers lose the familiar figure from
their midst and tho wise counsel.
...
Mis. Daniel I.angsluff is imother
who will bo greatly missed. Not so
much age nor Ill-health t:uut,iM her to
give up the Interests ot u score of
years, but residence at Fuctoryvlllo
removes her so far from tho city that
sho feela tho euro burdensome The
stately, handsome personality of Mrs.
Ivungstaff, with her cheery words and
unfailing good humor, Is something for
tho managers to lemember with pleas
ure and a. sense of unmistakable loss,
Sho was so reliable, so truo and sen
sible that her place Is not easily filled.
At Christmas tlmo It was always Mis.
Langstnff who trimmed the ttco at the
Home and superintended this Import
ant occasion. Many generations ot
Homo children will recall her merrv
ways and kindly smile with lively de
