C'kB MRS. STEPHENS ENTERTAINS.
Wm One of the most delightful so
WM cial affairs during the season was
■ on Tuesday afternoon when Mrs.
■ T. S. Stephens opened her hospi
P table home to the officers of the
I missionary societies of the differ
lent churches in this city.
gjlP'Tt was a pleasant diversion
Wm from the regular club life and
W proved very profitable an. well as
I pleasant to all present.
| The program consisted of mu
| sic, original papers and select
[ readings pertaining to the great
r work of these societies.
The paper by Mrs. 0. M.
Bowen on the work of the ladies
of the Christian church in for
eign fields as well as home work
proved very interesting and
showed a wide range of terri
tory covered by these workers.
Mrs. Sam Taggart read a pa
r per on the work of the Woman’s
Foreign Missionary Society of
thi^Methodist church, which has
^ been organized and in full work
ing order for fourteen years.
Mrs. M. A. Dorsey represented
/the Woman’s auxiliary of the
Episcopal church, and with se
lect readings showed the great
work and wide scope of home
and foreign countries in which
their work was carried on.
After the papers were read a
social hour followed, when the
general work was discussed, and
delightful refreshments were
served by Misses Janie and Lutie
Mae Stephens, which consisted
of neapolitan ice cream, cake
and coffee, and which closed a
delightful social affair.

ties that have been given during

their cozy home on Hazel street,

by Mrs. T. E. Morrison, and the
gentleman’s prize, a wire waste
paper basket, was easily won by
Mr. R.M. Johnson,who is gaining
quite a reputation as a euchre
player, having won a number of
beautiful prizes during the win
ter.
After the games were con
cluded the tables were spread
with lunch-cloths and a delight

MORONY DIES
IN LITTLE ROCK.
Division Freight Agent of Iron
Mountain in This Territory
Died Tuesday.
Little Rock, Feb. 28.—Mr. P.
H. Morony, Division Freight
Agent of the Missouri Pacific,
with headquarters in Little Rock,
died at St. Vincent’s Infirmary
at 1:40 p. m. today. He had
been sick only a few days with
an aggravated case of ery
sipelas and was removed to the
infirmary last week for treat
ment. He gradually grew
weaker despite all efforts of the
best medical talent, and for the
last two days it was apparent
that he could not recover. He
had a sinking spell last night
which for a time threatened the
end, but rallied towards morn
ing, only to become worse again
early in the forenoon. The re
mains will be taken to his form
er home at St. Louis for burial.
Mr. Morony was a young rail
road man of great promise and
had a host of friends in railroad
circles. He was about thirty-two
years old and had resided in Lit
the Rock for the last ten years.
For eight years he was traveling
freight agent under Division
Freight Agent, A. R. Bragg, re
taining that position under Mr.
D. E. King, who succeeded Mr.
Bragg. Upon the promotion of
Mr. King to the position of in
dustrial agent a few months ago
Mr. Morony was advanced to the
position of division freight agent.
He was unmarried and is sur
vived by three brothers, one of
whom, Hon. A. C. Morony, a
prominent attorney of St. Louis,
was with him at he time of his
death.

not reach the diseased portion of
the ear. There is only one way
to cure deafness, and that is by
constitutional remedies. Deaf
ness is caused by an inflamed
condition of the mucous lining of
the Eustachian Tube. When this
tube is inflamed you have a rum
bling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed,
Deafness is the result, and un
less the inflamation can be taken
out and this tube restored to its
normal condition, hearing will
be destroyed forever; nine cases
out of ten are caused by Catarrh,
which is nothing but an inflamed
condition of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred
Dollars for any case of Deafness
(caused by catarrh) that cannot
be cured by Hall’s Catarrh Cure.

WHEN THE KIDNEYS
ARE AILING.
The Urgent Need of Prompt Restora
tive Measures is Something
That Every One Should
Understand.
“A Stitch in Time Saves Nine.”
Slight disorders in the kidneys or uri
nary organs are more serious than most
people think. The first warning symp
toms should receive prompt medical
treatment to ward off Bright’s Disease
or some other dangerous malady. When
the kidneys are ailing and the symptoms
become sufficiently pronounced to be
noticeable the condition calls at once
for prompt measures to stay the progress
of the disease. Prickly Ash Bitters is
the remedy needed. Taken on the ap
| pearance of the first symptoms, such as
pain in the back, puffiness under the
! eyes, irregularities in the urine, digestive
disorders, it will save the victim incal
! culable misery and suffering, mental
torture and expense. Used atthebegin
; ning of the trouble it cures quickly.
Used in the more advanced stages it will
win back health and strength as rapidly
as circumstances will possibly permit.
Accept no substitute. Insist on having
the genuine Prickly Ash Bitters with the
large figure 3 in red on the front label.
Sold at Drug Stores, $1.00 Per bottle.

“Soon after i began to take |
Wine of Cardui I could see that I
I was beginning to get back I
my strength.” B
That, is the comment Mrs. Seymour I
makes. I
If you are sick you can take Wine of ■
Cardui and secure health and strength. If I
other medicines and other treatment have ■
failed, that will make no difference. Few I

WINE or CARDUI
No. 48 Straight St., Gkand Rapids, Mich. I
I am pleased to endorse Wine of Cardui as I found it so beneficial to K
restore my strength after my baby was born. I could not seem to get well 1
enough to be up and able to do my work, and a& I had been in bed for six *
weeks this was rather serious, but soon after I began to use Wine of Cardui I ||
could see that I was beginning to get back my strength. In another week I
I was able to sit up most of the day and in a month I was able to be up and I
do most of my work. I think it is fL /L P S
splendid medicine for a woman and ^ V
Lean certainly give it highest praise. TKBA8DBBB> W0MAN.S ^aTBIAl LBAGCB. I
