The little peculiarities of women are

Why, when Il pretty girl praises another

that handsome and popular young actors
are "sticks?" Why can he never, by any
possibility, find anything he Is sent 10
look for in closet or drawer? Why Is his

 The most brilliant social event of the winter occurred yesterday afternoon at the elegant home of MT. and Mrs. G. NJ. Will Hams, on the South Highlands. It was a tea given by the ladies of the Cadmean circle in honor of their distinguished guest, Miss Conway of Memphis.
 The beautiful rooms were decorated with palms aud foliage plants, and ou one of the landings of the splendid staircases an Ital- ian Dand was stationed and played during the hours of the reception. The dining room was an exquisite aud artistic picture with the beautifully appointed tables, magnificent embroideries, lovely china and rare cut glass.
 Throughout the dining room-a very large one-the colors of the Cadmean circle, yellow and white, were conspicuous in the embroideries, china and refreshments. An orange punch was served in a splendid cut glass bowl, and there seemed nothing wanting to make 1t an unusually complete and brilliant social success. Each member of the circle was permitted 10 in- yite two lady friends, and as result such a gathering of accomplished, intelligent, brilliant women is rarely seen anywhere, at any time. Miss Conway stood in the hall and was presented to the guests by the president of the Cadmean circle, Mrs. Ball. She made Q most delightful im- pression upon all whom she met by her great charm and fascination of manner. As the gun sank in the west reluctant gcod- byes were said, and gan afternoon never to be forgotten in the social history of bir- mingham drew to a close.

 h recent lecture Dr. Hartman is re- ported as saying that when person has once had la grippe he never fully recovers unless properly treated. Not only is the nervous system depressed and digestive orr gaus deranged, but in great number of cases the patient is left with chronic ca- tarrh. The doctor further said that the after effects Of la grippe were incurable by the ordinary treatment. Bitter tonics do no good, nervines seem to be useless. preparations of iron and phosphates have proven to be worthless. These cases, iu spite of the many invigorating tonlcs, con- tinue month after month and year after year to be miserable, catching cold at the slightest exposure, weak lungs, poor dis gestion and nervous debility. He stated that in long and extensive practice be had found Peruna to be the only remedy this class of patients to health. The cures made by Pe-ru-na are permanent and it's benefits are lasting.
 Surely no greater testimonial to the value of any medicine could be made. When a noted physician and surgeon of national reputation, and writer and lecturer known from one end of the country to the. other, speaks in such unqualified praise of Peru na it leaves no doubt as to it's re- mafkable curative powers. Pe-ru-na is also the best known remedy for chronic catarrh, colds, coughs, bronchitis, lung aud kidney diseases.

we'll loaded. The former was rounding
the point as the Mackinac was shooting
her nose straight for the town and both
boats were about on equal terms except
as to position, the Mackinao having Ia .
inside track for the dock.
or course both were opened out, and
began the race for the dock, four miles
distant, and, OF course, the passengers
still up, soon realized the situation, be-
gan to shout and yell. The scene was
very pretty. The night was dark as the
native Of Africa. and both steamers were
brilliantly lighted. The passengers
who lay asleep In their berths were quick
ly awakened by the yells, cat-calls and
whistles, and dressing, came on deck. AT
one time the Mackinao seemed TO be forg-
ing ahead, and this fact pleased her
crowd to the extent OF a redoubled volume
OF noise while on the Alpena the discord-
ant musical cadences became somewhat
fainter Then tho Alpena regained her
lost ground, and people took on new life
and again attempted to drown out the
other side with their cries.
And that was the story all the way In.
the waves of sound floating back and
forth until the dock was reached. Here
the Machinao's inside advantage came in.
and she steamed up to her place, with the
Alpena on the outside. Both sides
claimed the race. 1t was about an even
thing.
