’ di Away with the wash-board —Use Pearline. Aslong as you use the old wash-board there'll be hard work and waste. That's what goes with it, and can’t be taken from it. That's what it was made for. It’s the rub, rub, rub, on it that ruins the clothes. It’s the wash-board that wears you out. You don’t need it. Away with wash-day! You don’t need that, either. You don’t set apart a day for wash- ing the dishes. Wash the clothes in the same way, with no more work, a few ata time. But you'll have to use Pearline to do it. Pearline only can rid you of wash-board and hard work; with it you can do your washing when you like. And you can do it safely, too. Directions on every P kage. of imitations 346 JAMES PYLE. N.Y.

IMPORTANT IMPROVEMENTS MADE AT THE TRACK— ADDITIONAL STABLE ACCOMMODATIONS—BETTER FACILITIES FOR THE SPECTATORS—FULL PRO- ORAM OF THE VARIOUS EVENTS. If preliminary signa can be relied on the spring meeting of the Washington Jockey Club, which commences on the 28th of this month, is going to be a tremendous success. At least the chances seem‘ to be that the racing and arrangements will be better than ever before and it is certain | that more horses will be present at the track this spring and entered for the events than have ever been congregated at # race track around Washington even during the palmy days of Ivy City. IMPROVEMENTS AT THE TRACK. There have been a number of improvements made at the track this year, and the demand for stabling accommodations has beon so great that a mecting of the executive committee was called Friday night to discuss the advisability of putting up another stable. There were resent of the executive committee Messrs. , Childs, Schwartz and was speedily developed in the dis cussion that unless the club desired to turn away good stables from the meeting more stall room Was a positive necessity. Owners repre- genting 307 horses had already signified their intention of being preséut. Some of these horses could be sent to Ivy City aud led ove: in the morning, but others could net. It finally decided, after a full discussion, to build one now stable with stall room for 24 horses. ‘This will give accommodation at the ground for 240 horses. The stable will be ready by the opening of the meeting and*will cost in the neighborhood of $1,200. The committee also discussed the question of railroad fares and trains for the meeting. It was decided to in- crease and improve the sanitary arrangements at the pool lawn. FOR THE COMFORT OF THE CROWD. This year when the crowd surges out to the tracks they will find a number of improve- ments conducive to their comfort. One im- provement which will be felt immediately and will save much crowding and profanity is the removal of the ticket office from ite old posi- tion. It has been moved down nearer the station and the blockades at the gate will in the future be avoided. Then again a bridge been thrown from the porch of the club house to the grand stand and steps from the outside of the club house connect with the bridge. This improvement will be especiail appreciated by ladies, as it will do away witl necessity of walking through the restau- rant and lower stand to get from the grand and to the club house. In the future ladies also drive directly to the steps connecting with the bridge and reach the stand or club house without trouble or annoyance. HORSES ON THE TRACK. Practice is going on vigorously at the track nowadays and the horses are kept busily at it. Here are the stables which have already ar- rived at the track or will reach there very shortly: C.
