evening found the heavens compare
lively clear and the night proved to b'
most delightful, especially after thu
moon had arisen and shed her benign
beams over the land. About twenty
five couples were present and to 0ccom
MEDIATE these a large platform spread
with canvas had been erected in tn,
open AR. A charming feature of tn,
scene was the large number Of CHINESE
lanterns which had been strung arount
the platform and in front of the neigh

the Canada Alamosa orchestra consist
} ing of four pieces, and excellent re

A Guarantee.

Of all the diseases to which mankind is subject there is not one that more completely battles medical skill than Bright's disease of the kidneys. Ma ture, however, has supplied the remedy which science has tried in vain to pro vide. The waters of Griffin Spring, Ark will not only relieve, but will positively cure Bright disease Ii has been cured by the use of these waters, and SO posi- tive are we that they will cure in every instance, that We qn1rantrc a cure to all afflicted with Bright's disease or any other kidney affection, who will come and use the waters as advised By guarantee is meant that unless a cure Is effected, the patient will be under no expense whatever while at Griffin Spring Visitors whose cases require it, will re ceive the best of medical attention from Dr T. A. Krider, resident phy.i- clan. As to the efficacy of these watcr. in kidney troubles. we refer t. John II Reslear, of Genoa, Nance Co. Neb who after suffering during several years with Brights disease was completely restored by three weeks visit to Griffin Spring Vim. Allen, of Little Rock. Ark suf fered B years with kidney complaint, and was cured by the u-e of thee waters Hon C k Breckenridge. NJ. C. Wash ington, l. C, Hon Lecil Bobo San An tonic, Tex, II !
