Marvellous Results.

From letter written by Rev. Gun
derman of Dimondale, Mich, we are
permitted to make this extract: Il
have no hesitation in recommending
DR.. Kings New Discovery, as the re-
suit was almost marvellous in the case
of my wife. While was pastor of the
Baptist church at Rives Junction she
was brought down with pneumonia
succeeding la grippe. Terrible paroX-
isms of coughing would last hours with
little interruption and it seemed as if
she could not survive them. A friend
recommended DR.. Kings New Discov-
cry: 1t was quick in its work and highly
satisfactory in results" Trial bottles

The Eastern Star held a special
meeting on Tuesday evening which
was graced by several unusual features.
Delegations were in attendance from
Hudson and New Richmond, and the
new lodge room were given a test in
hospitality which proved eminently
satisfactory both to the guests and to
the entertainers. After the cere-
monials of an initiation, a musical
program was rendered, which gave
opportunity for several talented young
people not within the constellation, to
partake of the evenings delights.
The Sappho Quartette, comprising
Misses Dodge, Jensen, Heasley and
Lien, sang number of their spirited
glees; and the Banjo and Guitar
clubs-Messrs. Dodge, Follansbee,
Radcliff and Hurlburt,-played several
melodies. Mr.. Chandler of Hudson
disappeared on the program.
An elaborate banquet had been pre-
pared and was served from the long
series of tables in tho brightly lighted
banquet hall. A wide circle of flowers
lay in the center of the spread from
which sprang a vase of flowers arrang-
ed in crown. Bunches of flowers
were also placed at either end OF the
table. Informal greetings and re-
sponses added much zest to the &C.
casion. which was one of the keenest
enjoyment and hit for all pleasant
memories. The visitors from the
neighboring lodges expressed the
warmest Arbitration for the prompt
and finished style with which the
members OF the Star conducted the
various ceremonies.
