a RrlIliant Social Event.

Ono of themost brilliant as well as enjoyable
social events of the season occurred on the
evening of st. Valentines day. Feb. IA, at
q Pleasant View. the delightful home of AFR.
and Mrs j, Frank Myers. near KabIetown.z
This home has been noted for genuine hOspi-
tality for years. and the evening of the 18th
was only repetition of former like occasions,
for its doors were thrown wide open to receive
Gemen who had assembled for few hours of
enjoyment. The cordial reception that was
given by Mr.. and Mrs. Myers and their daugh-
ter Miss Lena made all feel welcome, and gave
store for them, which was realized to the full
est extent. Every factor that makes an occa-
sion OF this kind perfect WED with each other
in rounding and heapin0 up the measure of en-
joyment. Without, the moon shonc with re-
splendant beauty and brilliancy within, bright
lights and warm fires. The company was
charming. galaxy of handsomely dressed
ladies and gallant chiValrY filed the spacious
parlor. at eight O'clock supper was an
nOunced. The writer feels inadequate to do
Justice in describing this part of the entertain-
ment but will make the attempt. The table
was personifcation of a thing of beauty is
joy forever" 1t displayed the artistic taste
and skill of Mrs. Myers and Miss Lena. The
arrangement of the table was lovely Beauti-
ful natural flowers and a basket of trailing
vines were among the decorations. The menu
of the bounteons feast comprised great vari-
ETY. of substantial and delicate edibles. includ-
ing peafowl, oil of which were served in that
superb style, Tor which Mrs. Myers Is pro-
verbal. Having done justice to this princely
supper, the company returned to the parlor
and engaged in amusing games A prominent
feature of the evening was the rich treat of VO-
cal and instrumental music afforded the com
pany by Miss Nettie Beavers. Under the
skillful touch of Miss Nettie. the organ pealed
forth the sweetest music. She sang number
of solos with fine effect. At 10 o'clock the
company very reluctantly left for their homes.
But the evening of February 18th. 1889, is in
delibly impressed upon their memories us the
one upon which they were so elegantly enter
tanned by Mr.. and Mrs. Myers and Miss Lena
Mt pheasant View" Much regret was ex.
pressed by his many friends at the absense OF
Mr.. G. d. R., who was fully expected to be
present upon this charming occasion. Mr.. r.:
affablc and genial manner has made him a
universal favorite with large circle of friends
who always miss him sadly when he is absent
from social entertainments. There were pres

Just a Few Words About

ND it ever occur to you that there is as

as in other lines of goods2 If not then we de-
sire to say to you that there is.

uloush as many other manufacturers OF food
products. and now resort to the introduction
for the sake of fewextra dollars profit, of in
gradients into the manufacture of their Brew
age that are entirely foreign to the same and
are most deleterious to the health of the con-
sumner. Not so however is this with the Jos.

any other firm in America. They are up TO
the times in the way of having the finest
equipped Brewery in the country. with all the
latest Improvements in Machinery, DC. for the
handling and proper brewing of their immense
product. But as regards the ingredients of
which their Beer Is made, they are decidedly
ancient, still Using nothing but the best Of Bar
ley Malt and the finest Bohemian Hops. thus
retaining intact the only formula by which
good, pure beer can be made. If Won use a
