Aunt Dinah's Quilting Party.


Inc announcement had gone forth
that Mr.. and Mrs. Walter German
would entertain Aunt Dinah and her
legion OF friends at quilting party at
their beautiful and cosy home on Col
iege Heights last Tuesday night, and
TINS was sufficient to insure large
gathering OF the elite of the city.
Accordingly, when We scribe arrived

TO assemble what afterwards swelled
10 The number of "a hundred or more.
ana what was one of the most enjova.
Ole Affairs OF the season began to run
its course.
Ii being church affair. Mr.. German.
assisted by Mr.. Turley, were stationed
at the gate, where they collected a
small admission fee from those who
passed that way, aud right well did
they perform their duty, as the receipts
-Sl3. '5-a amply proves.
Mrs. German, in her ye olden time ,
costume, met and welcomed her guests
IN her most gracious and truly hospita-
Ole manner. making one and all feel
that they were at liberty to enjoy
themselves to the utmost extent if they
were so disposed, and who could be
otherwise under such AN array of
D iauty and loneliness as was there
gathered together.
Early in the evening, Aunt pinab.
a'companied by her servant. Topsv
arrived on the scene, and created the
most intense merriment 10y their de.
ilneatlons OF these most UNIQUE and
humorous characters. With Mrs. +
IL. Bard as Aunt Dinah, and Mrs. j..
NJ. Nichols as Topsy, it would be SUI
pefiluous to say to those who are ac
quainted with these popular entertain
ers that the impersonation was beyond
criticism. The originals could not
have Interpreted themselves to better
advantage from the standpoint of mpr-
ry-making.
Several of the ladies present were at
tired I'D real old fashioned gowns, spec

hair dressed accordingly. Among these
deserving special mention for
the appropriateness of costume and
representation of the characters of our
great grandmothers. were the hostess.
Mrs. Avery, of Hot Springs, Mrs. Ed

Refreshments consisting of lemonade
and ginger cake, were served, and old

Lies Dreaming, "by the Baptist choir,
Miss Pearson, soprano. and the solo
and quartette chorus, "Zula Gong, y
by Miss King. soprano, were especially
beautiful, and the hearers were
charmed with the melodious strains of

Bryan's Speech at st. Paul.

Hon. VIM. J. Bryan made speech |
in st. Paul, Mimi, a few nights ago
and in the course of his remarks, gave
expression to the following:
tThe ratification of the treaty Inc
stead of committing the United States
to a colonial policy really clears the
way for the recognition of Philip
pine republic. Lincoln, in his first in
augural message, condensed an unan-
swerable argument into brief ques-
tion when he asked: Can aliens make
treaties easier than aliens can make
laws?' The same argument is pre-
sented in the question: Can the inde-
pendence of the Filipinos be secured
more easily by diplomacy from a for
eign and hostile nation than it can
through laws passed by Congress and
voicing the sentiments of the Amer
can people alone? If independence
is more desirable to our people than a
colonial policy, who is there, or what
is there to prevent the recognition OF
| Philippine independence 1t Is alb.
surd te say that the United States car
be transformed from republic into
an empire without consulting the

Why Wellington was Called the Iron
Duke"

The Duke OF Wellington, hero OF
Waterloo, greatest of battles, Was call
ed from his intense strength, power
and energy, the Iron Duke" His
was the masterful power to command,
plan and succeed. In possibly less
measure, this power of success is In
herent in every healthy man. 1t Is
the birthright of health and strength.
1t is only the nerve weakened and
physically exhausted man who is the
weakIipg in this world, the wreck and
failure in life. And in this age OF
scientific achievements, there need be
no wrecks OF manhood, no weakllngs,
no failures to succeed. Men who
through Ignorance, indiscretion, ex-
cesses or oyer-work, have weakened
themselves, shattered their nerves
and exhausted their physical strength,
bowers and energies can under the
medical knowledge of the present day,
be restored to the perfect strength and
vigor of manhood. DR.. Greene OF 80
West 14th St., New York City is the
greatest specialist in curing this class
of diseases that the world has ever
known. His success in curing such
complaints is astonishing, and rev.
elation to nerve weakened and physic-
ally-exhausted men. His treatment
: differs from that of all other ply sici-
aus. He uses absolutely no poisonous
drugs, but achieves the most marvel
: GUS cures by harmless vegetable medl-
, cines, truly wonderful in their streng-
thening, vitalizing, invigOrating and
Ihealth-restoring powers. This great
boon to men is made doubly valuable
by. being placed within reach OF all
linen, for you can consult DR.. Greene
about your case absolutely free oi
: charge, whether you call or write to
Z him. If you are one of the weak ones
t of the world, lay your case at once be-
II fore DR.. Greene. and your nervousness
IL gloom, weakness, and dependency viii
y be soon replaced by renewed strength
l. buoyant hope, bounding vitality ano
b the vigor of perfect manhood. If you
IT cannot call, write the doctorfully anC
freely and in absolute confidence about
l. YOUR case. His advice and counse
'e will cost you nothing, and we promise
n- you now hope, new energy and tn
N strength and power to achieve sur
~ success in life. if you will follow hi
ut directions.
