The social meeting of the Mac
cabees was royally entertained
Wednesday afternoon from 3 to
6 by Mrs. James Ridley of East
Newport. The entire member
ship with three exceptions was
present, together with a number
of invited guests.
The afternoon was delightfully
spent in a social way, inter

These social gatherings are a
most delightful feature of our

reach out and bring in new mem

TAX THE “DRUMMER" PAYS
A Considerable Item in Commercial
Traveler’s Expense Account in
Host European Countries.
Three or four drummer*, say*
Comfort, had engaged in a warm
discussion over the bane of the
drummer’s existence on the road,
the “drummer’s tax”—not so bad
as it used to be, however, when
small towns all over the country
levied tribute on every traveling
man who visited them.
“By Jove,” said a man from a
New York silk firm, “you ought
to try it ovei on the other side.
What they do here isn’t to be
spoken of in comparison. Here
it is merely a small local matter.
Over there it is national. At least
It is for any of us who come from
foreign countries.' In Denmark,
for Instance, there is an annual
tax of $42.88 if a man represents
one house and half that for each
other house represented. In Nor
way you have to have a trade pass
good for 30 days, costing $26.80.
Prance is easier and you don’t
have anything hut a business
passport, which costs no mor*
than you want to pay. In Hoi

Three Happy Mothers
MRS. C. SEAMANN, of Greely, Neb.: 1 was in bad health and suffered
great pain at the monthly periods. After using Wine of Cardui I was greatly
relieved and two months ago gave birth to a fine boy baby. ,
MRS. TOM MURRAY, of Rocheport, Mo.: Two years ago I spent about
half the winter in bed. In February I commenced to take your Wine of
Cardui. I was better at once and in a month was like a different person.
My baby was bom on Easter morning and my health has been good ever since.
Every expectant mother should use this excellent medicine.
H. G. SHELBY, of Monterey, La.: Year before last I paid $50.00 doctor
bills for my wife. After that my wife used one bottle of Wine of Cardui and
nine months after she gave birth to a thirteen pound boy baby and I haven’t
paid any doctor bill since.
Wine of Cardui is yours to take today.
You can secure a $1.00 bottle from your druggist.

A. H. Thurnes, Mgr. Wills Creek Coal Co., Buffalo, 0.,wfTtes:
“I have been afflicted with kidney and bladder trouble for years, pass*

gave relief. After taking FOLEY’S KIDNEY CURE the result was
surprising. A few doses started the brick dust, like fine stones, etc.,
and now I have no pain across my kidneys and I feel like a new man.
FOLEY’S KIDNEY CURE has done me $ 1,000 worth of good.”
No Other Remedy Can Compare With It
Thos. W. Carter, of Ashboro, N. C., had Kidney Trouble and
one bottle of FOLEY’S KIDNEY CURE effected a perfect cure, and
he says there is no remedy that will compare with it.
