IN THEIR NEW HALL.
WORKMEN HAVE INTERESTING
DEDICATION D0INGS.
Addresses by Prominent officers Of
the 0rder-A Large Crowd, q
Pleasant Evening and a Most En-.
joyable Occasion.

The dedication exercises and social
OF the A. 0. U. W. last Thursday was
attended by a large crowd which in
cluded members of the order and
their friends from Solomon. Enter
prise, Manchester, Hope, Dillon and
other lodges. The occasion was in
many ways one of the most enjoyable
lodge affairs ever given in the city
and everyone present had good time.
NJ. H. Malott presided and made a
graceful and cordial welcome address.
Mrs. A. P. Riddle Of Minneapolis,
grand lady Of honor of the D. of H.,
spoke pleasantly 'of the influence Of
the Degree of Honor and highly COM
plimented the Abilene lodge on its
new hall.
Mrs. W. P. Gulick, past chief of
honor of Abilene lodge, D. Of H.,
charmed everyone with an exceeding
ly eloquent and pleasing address.
Her attractive presence and earnest
expression made her talk one that
will long be remembered for its ap.
propriateness and interest.
Grand Master Workman j. H. Cri-
der of Fl. Scott talked on the work OF
the order and told several anecdotes.
Past Grand Master A. P. Riddle as
usual was heartily received and made
an interesting address.
E. c. Little came up from Topeka
and gave witty and helpful address
that was received, as were all the
speeches, with hearty applause.
Not less attractive were the musical
numbers. Emil Suffer with his
violin and Miss Lois Mutt at the
piano gave two delightful duets; a
male quartette consisting Of Messrs.
Malott, johnson, 9. +. Rugh and G.
Rice sang so well that recalls were in
sistent; Mrs. H. J. Hodge sang in her
usual talented manner two solos; r.
E. johnson gave solo and was re-
called; Mr.. Suffer rendered a fine ac-
Gordon solo.
After the program J. N. Burton
sold at auction hundred or more
boxes each containing lunch for two,
prepared by the ladies' The prices
ranged from 50 to Is cents and there
were many surprises when the boxes
were opened and it was found what
lady the purchaser was to take to
supper. After supper an hour was
spent in dancing, closing an evening
that was well filled with entertain
ment.
The new hall is upstairs in the Case
block. 1t has been handsomely fitted
up with new furniture, new paper
and attractive features throughout.
There is a large supper room and a
kitchen attached and the entire ar
rangement is convenient and credit
able. The hall was deliberately dec
GRATED last evening and not only the
evenings adornments, but the plan
and beauty Of the hall were praised
by all. The committee in charge de-
serves much credit for its good taste
and accomplishments. The letters
A. o. U. W. ornament the outside
front Of the building and mark the
location Of one Of the prettiest and
best lodge headquarters in the state.

THE SUREST WAY

To success in business, is to have a
useful article to sell and then to tell
the plain truth about it in simple
words. The popularity of our prepa-
ration proves the soundness of this
principle. The best and most intelli-
gent people throughout the world,
use and rely on it. There is no haze
of mystery nor affectation of magic
about this remedy. The formula is on
the label made from Pure Cod Liver
Oil, extracted by us from fresh cod
livers, combined with the Compound
Syrup of Hypophosphites, Extracts Of
Malt and Wild Cherry Bark. There
you have the whole thing,

WITH THE TEACHERS.
They Listen to DR.. Brown on the Sub
ject of Attention.

DIR. Elmer E. Brown began his lee
ture before the Summer School yes
terday by asking the teachers to
prepare themselves to answer or dis
cuss on the morrow the question: "Is
knowledge Power?" declaring that
this was not question in the air.
Today his subject was Attention"
He pointed out there were two kinds
of attention recognized-voluntary at
tention and Involuntary.
Voluntary attention was that kind
in which you make yourself attend to
something not particularly interest
ing.
Involuntary attention was that in
which you devote your time and
thought to that which you really feel
like studying.
Their was another kind, viz: en-
forced attention. In this case the
child attends because the teacher com
pels him. Probably nine-tenths of our
attention is Involuntary:
He would say that the kind of at
tention we want in school is the kind
that we must have in life, the kind
that comes from interest in the thing
done. But rather than not get that
attention he would resort to enforced
attention to make his beginnings.
The lecturer and teachers then talk.
ed together of ways of enforcing 1T
tention. He quoted some book which
said that attention depended on the
bigness of the noise, but he said that
he did not think it was so.

PREPARATION,

the very soul Of healing for the
diseases which everywhere prevail.
Cases that were pronounced real Con-
sumption have completely recovered
by the use of it; and Rheumatism,
Malaria, AnRmia, Debility, the Sc
quenCes of scrofula, and all ailments
accompanied with rapid loss of flesh
and strength, yield very kindly to it.
1t always agrees with the stomach.
All the more because, although it
contains the nutritive properties Of
Cod Liver Oil, there is no appearance
or taste Of that rdIUdbie get nduSeous

will appreciate. 1t is scientific VIC
