None but laudatory comments are i
lienrd about the entertainment staged
last Wednesday 1 afternoon at the
-Arcade theater by the Sacred Heart
-academy. The orchestra numbers by J
the older pupils and the speaking
parts by pupils of tho primary de
partment were exceptionally good.
Intense application on the part of
the Sisters was shown in the very ac
: ceptable rendition of the string num
bers, consisting of violin and piano,
and the perfectly stunning recitation!
given by the little tots in the primer
grade.
The whole program centered around
the graduating of Leah Swalberg and
Helen Smith from the two year com
mercial course, and Lena Robertson
and Eileen Peare from Ifie four year
high school academic course.
Each of these was given a gold
medal for faithful attendance. This
class will ever have the distinction of
having a perfect attendance record
for the year, as well as for high pro
ficiency in school work. Miss Peare
was given a gold locket for 13 years
continuous attendance at the Academy
and for a uniformly and yearly high
record standing in her studies.

'the Rt. Rev. Bishop Chas. J. O'Reilly,
recalled to the pupils the labors of
the good sisters who worked with
them for many years and for no re
ward, save their proficiency and
moral training, and reminded them
that the battle of life was just be
ginning. On the previous Sunday Father

them that not the least part of their
education had been the noble example
of self sacrifice set by their pre

years of activity in the community's
history in this city, which is more
than twenty years. '

Fair Companion Had Hara,
. Roger Bresnaliau. former manager of
the Cqrdlntils. Is made the doubtful
hero of u story being told In St. Louis.
According to tbe story teller a friend
of Roger's asked him to take a certain
joung St Louis lady to a, ball game
and explain its mysteries to her. Rog
er ii!1gnme, and one afternoon when
he was not catching he escorted the
miss to tbe ball park and found seats
in the staud well toward the frout.
"Do you like baseball?" said Roger:
"Oh. I dearly love it!"'' replied bis
companion. "The games are so excit
ing." "Well. Just sit tight and I'll tell you
nil nbont It, so' you'll thoroughly un
derstand Its fine points."
"When will the same start?" , was
the next question.
"It's starting mm." said Roger.' "Do
you see that man standing out there
In the center of the diamond? Well,
he's what we call the pitcher. Oe
pitches, the ball Roe? The man who
receives It Is the catcher because he
sometimes rntches It. fln. ha! From
right to left we have the first base
man, the second baseman, the short
stop and the third baseman, and those
way out toward the fence are the
fielders. Now the batter has Just bit
the ball for a single. It Is called a
single because he is allowed to take
one base on the hit"
"Yep."' enme hack the fair one, "I
know that Kut what Is the boob
tricking off first like that for? Ho
knows that he can't take a lead like
that and get nwny with It! Who does
be think he Is? Ty Oibh itr lhwhtir?
'There be goes like n simp, trying to
steal second with Dooln catching. Cau
you bent that for a xolld Ivory play,
and the backstop .signaling for n throw
out all the time? If I had a bruin
like that I'd use a vacuum clcam-r on
It Of course he's out n mile, the poor
busher. I thought you wen- taking

From Belslw.zur court to tbe thea

ride In the subway, but usually we
reach the' theater a few minutes after
the rise tit .the curtain. Why this

we liave'iliniier half an hour early, and
JCiumoline comes to- tbe table quite
ready to go out. except that, she has
her cloak to' Slip on. Nevertheless we
are a few minutes late. While Emine
line Is sllpiitug on her clonk I glance
through' the editorial page in'the erem
lug paper, answer the telephone and
recall several lilts of work 1 overlooked
at the ofllce I then give Harold a
drink of water In bedf help Eniineline
with her hat. clean out the drawers In
my writiug table, tell Harold to stop
talking to himself and go to sleep and
bunt fur the theater tickets In the
pockets of my street clothes. After
that IJ have time to rend a page or
two of - and go in to see that
Harold Is well covered up. Enimeline
always makes me save time by having

drawing on her gloves. Nevertheless
we are a few minutes late for tbe first

Sleep.-
The science nud poetry of sleep are
here.
Science has this In tbe London Globe:
Sleep begins In Its first phase by a
state of distraction. Immedi
ately afterward, in 'a second phase,
these states of distraction pass into a
very delicate motor disturbance, due
to tbe absence of parallelism in tbe
axes of tbe eyes or by tho deviation of
tbclr conjugate movements.
And poetry this:
Sloep hath Its own world.
A boundary between the things misnamed
Death and existence. Sleep hath Its own
world.
And dreams In their development have
brenth '
And tears and tortures and the touch ot
. Joy. .
And Shakespeare's "Sleep that knits
np the ravell'd sleave of care." And a
bost of others that you can get
glimpses of in tbe anthologies.
As between science and poetry, which
gives you the truer Idea of sleep?

Nothing equals an aureole of beau

beauty.
Every woman 1 can increase her
natural charm by using Newbro's
Herpicide. Herpicide makes hair
beautiful. The dandrbff germ saps
the vitality of the hair. Herpicide
applied intelligently and regularly
checks this destruction of hair life
and prevents the hair from falling
out, giving it a snap and luster, 8

in no other way.
