Don't expect to be healed of & disease which you bave been contracting for years in the twinkling of an eye.

At thmes when she took cold she would be actually deaf. 1 noticed &@ general running down of the aystem, attended with sleepless nights, choking during her asleep. Whenever the child made any exertion she in- variably complaired of pains in the side. She Yas frequently affected with nervous spells. Her breath was noticeadly offensive. She had been treated by other physicians without deriving any benefit. After two weeks of Dr. Jordan's treatment I noticed a decided improvement; my daughter slept better—had a heartier appetite—and could breathe much easier through her nose. She has increased ten pounds in weight, aud is now a bright, healthy ehild. I am w grateful to Dr. .Jordan for bis masterful treatment of my daughter's case that I feel as if I ought to drop my housework and go around to all my friends who are suffering from catarrh or nasal troubles and tell of bis wonderful ability and success in this specialty."” It you have any nasal, throat or ear trouble, and want it treated, take every possible precaution that will assure success—secure the best treatment obtainable—the one of all others that will be most likely to succeed. $5.00 A MONTH.

Outdoor life has taken on a new meaning, society has resumed its afternoon | drives, and all the world is smiling over the near presence of that most desired and most capricious of all seasons--th spring. Easter invitations are iv'r around as thick as the traditional snow- flake, the florists are showing show and lilacs to those who want to keep «head of the seasonabie blooms, the milliners’ windows are gorgeous with flower-decked headgear, and the hyacinths, tulips and crocuses are so far above ground that you can almost hear them growing. The pre- liminary notes of the social overture are being rehearsed at least, and the quiet of the coming fortnight will make the say performance of the Easter revival all the more appreciated. During the wait there is a good deal to talk about of one sort or another, and so the time will not be long passing. There is considerable disappointment that the marriage of the French ambassador, Monsieur Patenotre, and Miss Elverson will not take place here, when it could be ar- ranged so just as well, since the family of the bride-elect own and are now occupying for a few days one of the most spacious and elegant suburban homes near this city. It is said, however, that for the sake of those who may feel a little personal disappointment as to monsieur’s seleciion it will spare their feelings to have the cere- mony take place anywhere else. There is no denying that society, and especially that part of it which was supposed to enjoy the closest confidence of the French ambassa- dor, was thoroughly surprised by the an- nouncement of his early matrimonial in- tentions. Some of the real smart ones say that they had strong suspicions almost amounting to knowledge for the last s'x months of his engagement to this charming young lady, and they kept mum so 2s to enjoy the spectacle of seeing the much- | coveted prize further angled for by the many rich families who were continually wining and dining him. Only for a very good reason, as M. Patenotre was de- termined to give a dramatic surprise to his acquaintances, the announcement of the engagement would not have been made until the wedding invitations were all ready sent out, but the early departure of a friend for Europe caused tne | news to be given out a little in advance. Excepting for some members of the em- bassy, it is not likely that invitations wll be extended to the members of the jp! matic corps generally for the event. The ceremony will be as quietly solemnized as possible consistent with the dignity of the groom. After = ag trip, it is said, the couple will return here and give a@ reception at the French embassy before society scatters for its summer travels. The bride-elect was here last spring, and was a guest at various entertainments given after Easter, but she is by no .neans widely known in society. Those who dco know her agree that she is a charming young lady whose natural gifts for musie and the languages have been thoroug cultivated, and that she will adorn position which will be hers in the oe matic corps. She speaks French, Italian and German, a delightful accomplishment for the wife of a diplomat. Mrs. Cleveland has resumed her afternoon receptions on Mondays, which were the feature of previous seasons at the White House, and for the last two weeks her callers have been regaled not only by a chance of a quiet conversation with her, but also partaking of a of tea made by her at a prettily decorated table in the blue room. The company expected at these re- ceptions is never very large, which makes it all the more pleasing. They last usually from 5 until 6 Mrs. Cleveland has also been a noticeable figure the past week at the various lectures now being giv under fashionable patronage. One of the changes which Mrs. Cleveland has made in the living rooms at the White House has been the transformation of the southwest chamber from a bed room to a sitting room for herself. This room has al- ways been a favorite one as a sleeping room for former Presidents and is well remem- bered as the room where Mrs. Harrison died. It was there also that Garfield lay through long months of suffering, and it was this fact that caused his successor, President Arthur, to choose a room just op- posite it, on the north side of the house, for his bed room. President Cleve the same choice through his first term, and upon his return, immediately after these rooms were placed again in suitable condi. tion, resumed occupation of them. } The southwest chamber makes a very cheerful and sunshiny boudoir. Its decora- tion is in light and dainty colors and it is very prettily and cozily arranged. The room is next door to the nursery, into which use the bed room known as the Prince of Wales’ room, has now been converted. Miss Anne Seabury Brewster of New York, whese engagement to Count Henri de Frankenstein, has just been announced, is well-known in Washington, where her elder sister, Mrs. Reamy, wife of Lieut. L. Reamy, resid s her debut in Washington at a series of ceptions given by her mother during a win- ter’s residence at the Richmond. She has visited here frequently at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Anthony Pollok, and has been | quite a favorite in the sma-:t set, to whom the announcement of her happiness in her approaching marriage give Miss Brewster and her moth @ great deal of their time in late yea Alaskan and European travel. After Miss Brewster's first trip to Europe she brought back with her the fashion of making de- mure little eourtesies to marriet women, and her appearance at any gathering was always accompanied by the: litt obs, very much to the amusement of the many who think the fashion a trifle exaggerated. | Miss Brewster is very pretty, talks well and will make a charming countess. Count | Henri de Frankenstein was at = Mrs, Ffoulke’s reception Thursday night and made a splendid impression. He is just as/ good-looking as the newspape> accounts have implied, and has conversational pow- ers of no mean order. The count accompa- nied Mrs. Reamy, his future sister-in-law to this reception, and many of her friends | have met him. The entertainers of the week have been the Brazilian minister and Madame Men- donca, Senator and Mrs. Wolcott, Mr. and Mrs. Henderson, Mr. and Mrs. Ffvike, Mr. and Mrs. Andrews, Mr. and Mrs. Pellew,and Mr. and Mrs. Whittemore, who gave din- ners; Mr. and Mrs. Ffolke, who gave a large evening reception on Thursday evening; Miss Caroline Gordon, who gave two teas, and Miss Cabell, who gave a tea and a sup- per party in honor of her guest, Miss La- mont of Philadelphia. Among the Easter invitations already out are those from ex-Governor and Mrs. C roll, who will give an Easter Monday ball to meet Miss Horsey and Miss O'Donnell. Miss Helen Carroll, who spent the winter in | Paris with her sisters, returned home last week. M Brice will give a cotillion, as she generaily does during a holi son, and the annual ball will be given at the Coun- try Club on Thursday of Easter week. The Yale Glee Club will be given a tea by Mrs. | and the Misses Boardman, and several wed- dings will further interest society the first | week after Easter. There are going to be some charitable occasions, musicales, ete. Mrs, Pissell is getting up one for the Chil- dren's Hospital, which will be given at the residence of Senator Hale, and the rumor is that her splendid voice will be heard in a part of the program, and Mrs. Carlisle, | who wants to raise a big lot of money for the endowment fund of the hermitage, has the arrangements in progress for en- tertainment at one of the theaters. Al- though the date has not been set, aud will not for a few days, she has already dis- posed of nearly all the boxes, and has the | best assurances that the event will be a | great success.

Through’ the untiring efforts of the members, Misses Cusacks, Cruett, Berry, Hodges,’ Hipsley, Thomp- son, Welshe and Mrs. Alexander Donova quite a snug little sum was realized, whic will go toward the relief of the suffering poor of this city. At this season many persons have time in which to turn te sweet charity for occu- pation and entertainment. Mr. McLean's offices will be the scene of a brilliant tea next Thursday for the benefit of the Chil- dren's Hospital. Aside from its ob; a which must appeal to a wide number every | effort has been made to insure its success socially, and the 400 Uckets already sold among ‘acquaintances of the young ladies giving the tea show that society is en rap- port with them and will lend its presence to assure their success. A merry group of Eastern High School pupils surprised their friend, Miss Erma Bishop, with a visit at her home, No. S14 Sth street northeast, last Thursday even- ing, bearing good wishes and tokens of esteem in honor of the sixteenth anniver- sary of her birthday. The evening was pleasantly passed in games, followed by refreshmenis.
