Although the afternoon tea has grown rapidly into prominence, it has not altogether taken the place of a chocolatiere. which is distinctly a woman's function. Women are all quite fond of chocolate and many times at an afternoon affair where women only are the guests, the refreshments will consist of chocolate in some form or other. There is hot. chocolate with whipped cream, chocolate ice cream, chocolate cakes with white frosting and chocolate bon bons. As chocolate Is apt to become distasteful when no other flavor is used, the sandwiches are preferably of plain bread and butter, while olives stuffed or plain, and salted nuts fit in well with the chocolate scheme. .4 v .

The club will meet in two weeks with Mrs. John Evans, l."!12 Main street. .4 ,4 The Woman's Relief Corps met. yesterday afternoon at the G. A. R. hall. Preparations were made for a. dinner to be given Saturday, March twentyeighth, at the hall. J

A luncheon is ever the most cozy., friendly and informal manner of entertaining a few special favorites, and the forget-me-not gives a lovely keynote of color for the table. Strange to say. that although light blue is the favorite color of nearly every woman under the azure heavens, one never sees a table decorated in that shade. In these days of aestheticism. a feast to be acceptable, must appeal to the eyes as well as to the palate, and people of abundant leisure demand novelty. No matter how delicate the fare, or fine the surroundings, their taste craves the stimulus of some new thing. For the center of the table a drop lamp, either light or blue, white, gilt, or even brass provided that the silk shade be of the true turquoise is suggested. Surrounding this a generous wreath of forget-me-nots, six inches In width. Fortunately the dainty blossoms are always plentiful, and can be easily arranged by the merest novice if placed in the low glass troughs that florists keep for hire, and which may be adapted to any form. A large, ring-shaped trough made of tin may be had for one dollar and fifty cents, and with a light biue ribbon tied about it to hide its plebeian nature, where the parting of the flowers may betray its

presence, the effect is dainty and pretty. The shape is rather better than that, made with glass troughs. White candles with tiny blue s.iaaes (crimped paper ones are effective) at the four corners of the table may be further supplemented with bobeches woven of artificial forget-me-nots twisted as though growing, about the base of the candles. The last, are a pretty novelty at one of New York's most fam

ous shops. out so simple are tney any one could make them. If the hostess be so fortunate as to possess a square of linen embroidered with the flowers it will, of course, add much to the completeness of the decoration. v J v4 The King's Herald band will meet tomorrow afternoon at. two-thirty o'clock at the Grace M. E. parsonage. All the members are urged to be present. J v ' Miss Ada Mcintosh was hostess to the Protection Mite club last night at

Bon Thr "Were Cleverly I'sed la Kiponlnc a Krd. In a large factory in which -were employed several hundred persons one of the workmen in wielding his hammer carelessly allowed it to slip from his

hand. It flew halfway across the room; and struck a fellow workman in thej left eye. The man afterward averred! that his eye was blinded by tbe blow.

although a careful examination failed!

to reveal any injury, there beiDg not a scratch visible. Jle brought a suit in the courts for

compensation for the loss of half of his eyesight, and refused all offers of; compromise. Under tbe law the owner j of the factory was responsible for an injury resulting from an accident of thin kind. The day of the trial arrived, and in' open court an eminent oculist, retained by the defense, examined the alleged: injured member and gave it as hi3( opinion that it was as good as the right) eye. Upon the plaintiff's loud protest of his inability to see with his left eye the oculist proved him a perjurer and satisfied the court and jury of the falsity of his claim. He did it simply by knowing that the colors green and red; combined make black. He prepared a black card, on which j a few words were written in green Ink. Then the plaintiff was ordered to put , on a pair of spectacles with two differ-, ent glasses, the one for the right eye

being red, and the one for the left eye consisting of ordinary glass. Then the card was handed to him, and he was ordered to read the writing on it through the glasses. This he did without hesitation, and tbe cheat was at once exposed. Owing to the effect which the colored glass must have had upon the green writing the sound right eye fitted with the red glass could not possibly distinguish the writing on the black surface of the card, while the left eye, which he pretended was sightless, was the one with which the reading had to be done.

Getting His Own Back. An ironworker, having had the worst of an argument with a friend, decided to get even with him. Waiting, therefore, until his enemy had retired to rest one night, he approached his street door and knocked loudly in order to wake him. Opening the bedroom window, the other hurriedly Inquired what the noise was nil about. "Why," replied the outside one, "one of your windows is wide open." "Which one?" "Why, the one you have your head through," chuckled the other as he went away satisfied with the success of his plot Illustrated Bits.

Must Chcrg. to Get Crowd. The ladies' guild of an uptown church had planned an evening entertainment and reception and asked the rector to make announcement of it on the Sunday preceding. "This is all right," he said, "but you must charge admission." "Why, this is Just a social evening," they protested. "Wo are inviting people." "They won't come," said the rector, "because they will think it is not worth while. But charge a small admission and you will have a good crowd." So the women gave in, and subsequent events proved the rector was right. New York Press.

Always Ready For War Service at a Moment'. of. The total population (A Switzerland is rather less than half tfce population of London alone, yet the plucky little republic can throw into the field at a moment's notice four completely equipped and trained army corps to Germany's and France's twenty and England's nominal eight. In proportion to her population as compared with Switzerland, England should possess fifty. Every ablebodied Swiss is, ipso facto, a member of the army from eighteen to forty-four, yet never does one hear the least complaint made by a Swiss of whatever social class at the trifling sacrifice of time that his military duties demand. To watch a Swiss battalion on its way to maneuvers In camp or on its return is to watch as contented, serviceable and cheerful a lot of men ns one could wish to meet. The only serious tax upon the time of the soldiers is the first two months of hard training as a recruit. Afterward sixteen days in camp every other year is all that is required of him. Between whiles he shoots with his comrades every little village has its shooting range because he loves it, and devotes a certain amount of time voluntarily to the physical exercises he is taught at school to keep himself fit.

GREW MISS CARROLL'S HAIR AND WE CAN PROVE IT Beautiful Hair at Small Cost WITHIN the last decade great and rapid strides have been made in the medical profession. Many diseases that were considered incurable fifteen years ago are now cured in a few days, and in many cases prevented altogether. The scientists of late years have been searching for the reason and the cause of disease, fully realizing that the actual and true cause must be ascertained before the remedy can be created. Hair troubles, like many other diseases, have been wrongly diagnosed and altogether misunderstood. The hair itself is not the thing to lc treated, for the reason that it is simply a product of the scalp, and wholly dependent upon its action. The scalp is the very soil in which the hair is produced, nurtured and grown, and it alone should receive the attention if results are to be expected. It would do no earthly good to treat the stem of a plant with ; view of making it grow and become more beautiful the soil in which the plant grows must be attended to. Therefore, the scalp in which the hair grows must receive the attention if you are to expect if to grow and become more beautiful. Loss of hair is caused by the scalp drying up, or losing its supply of moisture or nutriment; when baldness occurs the scalp has simply lost all its nourishment, leaving nothing for the hair to feed upon (a plant or even a tree would die under similar conditions). The natural thing to do in either case, is to feed and replenish the soil or scalp as the case may te, and your crop will grow and multiply as nature intended it should. Dr. Knowlton'a Dander-lna has a most wonderful affact upon the hair glands and tissues of tha soalp. It Is the only remedy for the hair ever dlsoovered that is Identieal with the natural hair foods er liquids of the soalp. It feeds and nourishes the hair and does all the work originally carried on by the natural nutrients or life-giving juices generated by the sculp itself. It penetrates the pores of the scalp quickly and the hair soon shows the effects of its wonderfully exhilarating and life-producing qualities. One 2--cent bottle is enough to convince you of its great worth as a hair growing and hair beautifying remedy try it and see for yourself.
