People of this day and generation are
not disposed to give things away, When
therefore the Mount Lebanon Shakers
recently stated that anyone could get a
bottle OF Digestive Cordial by calling In
person at their New York office, 1t eX-
cited a great deal of talk.
One of the leading dailies of the Me-
tropolis sent reporter to find out what
was meant. 1t developed that the prep
aration in question has proven beneficial
in so large a majority of cases that
nine-tenths of the people who are suf-
ficiently anxious to call for sample,
find so much relief that they continue
the products use and tell their friends
about 1t. AS a result very large de-
mand has been created.
The Shakers have a long record of
success as inventors and their various
medicinal products have always enjoy
| ed high reputation. The Digestive
| Cordial is not only nourishing in itself,
but 1t digests other foods when taken
as directed.
Sleepless nights, spots before the eyes
and sense of heaviness after eating,
loss of weight and general weakness are
among the common symptoms of indi-
gestion which it promptly relieves. and
1t Is gratifying to know that such pos
tive and harmless remedy as Digestive
| Cordial should have at last been devised

that she did not need the clothing and
trunk, and that she hoped that they
could use them. She said that Phelps
| had bought her very large trunk and
that she would get new clothes that af-
| ternoon.
There is little doubt that the big
| trunk was the one in which her body
was carried out of the Holmes house.
The mother said that the clothes were
| not packed as If her daughter had done

| Dear Sir: I received your letter
some days ago and called on DR.. CT

pleased to learn from him of Mrs.
Phelps whereabouts, for 1t seemed ex-
iceedingly strange until he explained
matters to me that she would have
neglected to write to you, and inasmuch
as she was working for us l felt in a
measure responsible for her Kindly
let me know her address upon your re-
ceiving 1t, as there is a paper pertaining
to the Campbell Yates company, OF
which she acted as secretary, which
should be properly signed by her.
Very truly yours. H. H. Holmes.

/ WASHINGTON LODGE CELEBRATION.
The anniversary of Wasbingtons birth
day was appropriately observed last
night by the lodge of Masops which
bears his name-Alexandria- Washing
ton Lodge No. 22-and of which he was
Worshipful Master. A special meeting
/ was called in honor of the occasion and
though everything was conducted in
an Informal manner, the evening was
none the less enjoyed by all present,
and there was a goodly attendance,
among those present being several from
Andrew JacksonLodge and others of the
mystic tie from other cities. kilograms
conveying fraternal greetings from
Master ]. Willis Carter and Past BIas-
ter Chas. Woodbury., ofBeverly Lodge,
of Beverly, Mass, were received and
appropriately responded to. Then fol-
lowed short addresses by number of
members, some of whom spoke Of
Washington as Mason, while others
gave interesting "reminiscences of the
lodge and of some of the members who
had joined the great majority. The
members and visitors were then called
to partake of refreshments which
though frugal, were heartily relished
Cigars were then handed around and
the remainder of the evening was
very pleasantly spent in speech
making and listening to speeches.
Mayor Strauss made the speech OF the
evening, but caused some establishment
by announcing that the lodge was cele.
brating Washington's twenty-second
birthday and that be, the speaker, had
been a Mason for two centuries. be
soon discovered his mistake, however,
and gracefully made amends. Other
speeches were made by Messrs. K.
Kemper, J. T. Roberts, G. w. Fisher,
F. E. Corbett, n. ?. Vincent, w. ID.
Stewart, ]. P. Clark, A. H. Thomson,
T. II. Ficklin, II. K. Field, Hubert
Snowden, S. 81. Lunt and others. Mr..
Roberts told of his having been made
a Mason just eleven years ago and
having the next day sailed for Europe
where special honor had been shown
MIN because he was member of
Washington Lodge. The evening
closed with duet sung by Mayor
Strauss and Mr.. S. II. Lunt. This was
novel and surprising feature, as but
few of the friends of the gentlemen
named knew that they possessed any
musical talent-but they were most
egregiously mistaken. The evening
altogether was q most enjoyable one
and will long be remembered with
pleasure by all present. Everybody |
was in good humor and in the best of
spirits, and in many of the speeches
wit and pathos followed each other in
rapid succession. The feast literally |
was as ''dry" as that ever served at q
Jonadab festival, consequently there
was no use of the service Of symposi-
arch, but there was veritable feast OF
reason and flow of soul and none went
away dissatisfied. Just as the men,
bers of the lodge and their friends were
leaving the hall Mr.. F. E. Anderson,
who had been detained in Washington,
arrived, and all knowing his ability as
a speaker, insisted that he should
make speech. Mr.. Anderson COM
piled with the request and for fifteen
entertained his hearers in his
usual happy style.
