MR. CUNT G. FORD, who has been Identified with the very foremost dramatic attractions, including Oil- let’s "Secret Service Co.,’’ "David Har'wn," “Tho Clans man,” etc.,'has this to say pf Newbro’s Herplclde.- “For years I was annoyed with dand ruff and Itching of the scalp, all duo to my twenty years of theatrical life with Its Incumbent ’make-up’ and wig- wearing. At times the Itching of the scalp was Intense. All remedies tailed me until I tried Herplclde, and I soon found that it was giving wonderful re sults. Thb Itching and also the dand ruff entirely ceased and my lialr re sumed Its natural life and vigor. "There Is no question In my mind about the reality of the dandruff germ, and I unhesitatingly recommend Herpl clde to my friends in the profession.” (Signed) CLINT G. FORD. THEATRICAL FOLK Use and Recommend NEWBRO’S HERPICIDE ' Extravagant claims for toilet remedies do not Influence theatrical people, because long experience enables them to discriminate intelligently. They demand merit, and will rarely use a preparation that is not actually worth as much or more than It costs In dollars and cents. Herplclde kills the dandruff germ and by actual test does more good than all other hair remedies com bined'.. This accounts for Its popularity In theatrical cicalas. "Queen Roselle" jvrites of Newbro’s Herpicide "I take pleasure In announcing the very satisfac tory results I have had from the use of Newbro’s Herpl clde. My Mir was falling out so rapidly that I was afraid 1 would lose It all. A friend advised Herplclde, and after using It faithfully my hair stopped falling out, the dandruff disappeared and my hair is now very soft and glossy. “I would like to see every lady of the profession try Herpicide, for I am confident that tney would be de lighted with It.” .

A surprising number of visitors from South America and from Cuba have also put In an appear ance. , The royal guestB, Including princes of the blood from every coun try In Europe, are arriving, and the pro cessions escorting them and their suites from the railway station to the several palaces where they will be lodged during their stay In the city afford brilliant spectacles that are much enjoyed by the populace. The trousseau of the royal bride was placed on exhibition today at the senate house. The spacious salons were benutitully decorated with palms and flowers, and the exhibition, ar ranged by the court attendants, at tracted a great crowd anxious to In spect the royal bridal attire. In addition to the' wedding gown of cream-colored satin adorned with priceless lace, the trousseau Includes a largo number of other gowns, some made In England and others In Paris. Among the dainty evening gowns Is a sliort-waisted one of pale malse mouB- seline, the skirt Inserted lengthwise with guipure Insertion and tucks. About the hem ruches were arranged In waves and at Intervals were green mednlllons embroidered In delicate colors. The bodice was trimmed to correspond with the skirt with Valen ciennes lace and guipure. Another one was composed of pale blue Liberty satin cut en prlncesse. The skirt waB trimmed with inch-wide plaited frills edged With white, ar ranged in points, with Insertions of very narrow white Valenciennes lace) The corselet was finally gathered, and the simple bodice was daintily trim med with plnltlngs and laee to corre spond with the skirt. .... Pale plnlc-and-whlte satin foulard in a small design was.a striking material for a day dress. Tho bodice was made with a small transparent pointed yoke of Cluny lace outlined with ribbon vel vet applique, and the fulness was set Into fine gathers at the wrist, held In place by narrow bands of velvet. The skirt was arranged with Cluny laee In sertions from waist to hem. The lat ter was with fancy strappings of vel vet ribbon the same color as the gown. A charming morning gown of white lawn over pale blue had Valenciennes laee Inserted at equal diBtaneeB and was fastened with blue satin, ribbon rosettes, while another was composed entirely of Anglais embroidery, In a very openwork design. Particularly handBome was a day dress of ivory crepe-de-Chine, the bod ice arranged' with squares of finest guipure lace and tuoked squares of crepe-de-Chine, the centers of which were daintily embroidered with col ored rosebuds, and set together with Insertions of Valenciennes laee. The skirt was made to correspond with soft frills at the hem and fine, tucks round the waist. Another beautiful visiting dress was of fine white Valenciennes lace and Ivory-colored cloth, made with a bolero having shaped strappings of cloth, and having double puffed sleeves of laee. The skirt was of Valenciennes lace. There were many dainty blouses, the majority being trimmed with Val enciennes lace with Insets of Irish guipure, all made very simply; some being of pale pink lawn, and others of white cambric with dainty navy blue ties attached. A blouse of white lawn was particularly admired. It was trimmed with Incrustations of Irish lace and embroidery. A handsome coat of palest biscuit, colored cloth, lined with eau-de-nil silk, attracted much attention. It was embroidered In a design of twisted satin ribbon matching the cloth, and had a band of deep cream Valenci ennes lace round the hem, while cord ornaments and tassels finished the neek. A part of King Alfonso’s wedding gifts to his bride have also been placed on exhibition. These comprise a gol den crown studded with diamonds, a diamond diadem, a diamond necklacS, a pearl necklace, 4 golden bracelet studded with diamonds, brooches and par-rings.

It might have had a fight with u fish or got transfixed seeking Its prey. The doc tor of the ship took the bird, extracted the bone, applied a soothing remedy to the wound and let It go. It flew away, but returned the uext day, allowing It self to be caught. The doctor exam ined the wound, which waB progressing favorably, applied more of the remedy and let the bird go a second time.

The Figures They llenr and What They Are Supposed to Represent* There are but few persons, even among the historians, antiquarians and students in general, who bnve the least Idea of the significance of the figures on playing cards. In very early times the four suits represented the four principal trades followed by the peo ple, and the figures on the cards were supposed to be symbolic of the same. The heart was the symbol of the oliolr- men, or ecclesiastics, and In all early packs, besides the figure of the heart, each card also bore a rude picture of a monk’s cowl or of his cloak and crook ed staff. Some authorities say that the out of the early monkish cloak was In the form of n heart and that the figure used today is but a representation or picture of that portion of the old prel ate's wearing apparel. The “spade” Is' really a pike, or spearhead, and was originally the trademark of the sol diery, typifying the nobility of that very Important branch of ancient “Indus try.” The artisans In general were rep resented by either a Mason’s arch or by a diamond shaped roofing tile. The former, being somewhat unhandy to properly figure, gradually gave way to the tile, which Is stHl used and called "diamond" because of Its shape. The farmers, or great class of agricul tural laborers, were given their sym bol, which was originally a wheat head, or sheaf of wheat bound up with the common straw band.. As clover gradually became the chief forage grass of the agriculturists, they adopt ed a Slnglo leaf of that plant as their card symbol. A figure of this useful specieB of trefoil Is still used and Is called a "club,” but why no one knows. The four kings were originally Da vid, Alexander, Caesar and Charle magne, representing the four greatest monarchies. Authorities differ as to the queens, but the preponderance of the evidence Is In favor of the opinion that they are Arglne, Judith, Esther and Pnllas. The knaves, or "Jacks,” are supposed to he rude caricatures of indent assassins, or general all around villains, whose names have been loat In the many centuries that cards have been used In games of chance and amusement.
