President T. w. BOATWRIGHT,
Richmond, Va.

Mr.. Macon Slowly and drawlinSy),
WE'LL, he is u dam f-a-a-r Gair) average"
But | fear l have trGspasSed, and instead
of telling OF The splendid crowd now here,
have forgotten them in my review First
l will mention DR.. D. w. IasSlter, OF
Petersburg, whom ! met this morning for
the first time since 1873, a quarter OF "a CEN
tury, but il really does not seem SO very
long The Doctor knowing that l was a
native Of the county, was asking me some
questions about the old days here. Most
OF your readers know the Doctor, and 1t
is hardly necessary for me 10 remark
that his former skill a physician Is
only ecipsed by his unsurpasSabie traits
as one Of . the last OF the Mohicans OF
that loved and honored race. known to all
men as the old NirSinian gentleman.
The Doctor wound up our talk by tell
ing me that in all his long experience
with the diseases common to Eastern
Virginia, he had long ago become con-
WINGED that no water ran out OF the eartn
SO beneficial or healing as the Old
Spring for all the common diseases OIL
the people. Tbs remark was IN keeping
with the traditions handed down from
father 10 son in all this section so long,
that the memory of man Tunneth not 10
the contrary" II possible, however, the
new spring, No. ., has wrought as WONDER
full cures since its discovery oS toi.
t-,oIa aS the history of waters can SHOW
snywhere ON earth, and amongst class
of ailments heretofore pronounced in
durable by the learned Faculty, and whose
pallation even was considered medical
triumph.

Question Answered.

Yes, August Flower still has the
largest sale of any medicine in the civil
lied world. Your mothers and grand
mothers never thought of using any
thing else for Indigestion or Bilious.
ness. Doctors were scarce, and they
seldom heard of Appendicitis, Nervous
PrOstration or Heart failure, etc. They
used August Flower to clean out the
system and stop fermentation of undi-
gested food, regulate the action of the
liver, stimulate the nervous and organic
action of the system, and that is all they
took when feeling dull and bad with
headaches and other aches. You only
need q few doses of Green's August
Flower, in liquid form, to make you
satisfied there is nothing serious the
matter with you. For sale by DR.. Dom

Parties of Last Week,


The Beehler home at No. 1S1 Butler
street was aglow with greetings of
hostesses and guests and pleasant con-
versation Friday afternoon, of Decem-
Der fourteenth, when some forty-fve
ladies responded to invitations for
luncheon at one. After being seated
at tables for four the la lies partook of
one of the most delicious of dinners.
Everything from bullion to ices and
cakes being Hastily and exquisitely
served. The remainder of the after
noon was spent in social pleasures,
many of the ladies wishing to attend
the bazaar and for that reason depart
ing earlier than was their want. Mrs.
Beehler and her daughter, Henrietta,
have enviable regulations in our little
city as entertainers of more than ordin-
airy ability and to say they fully sus-
tanned such would be but lightly ex-
pressing the compliments heard from
their guests of this afternoon
Saturday, the fifteenth about fifty OF
the friends of Miss Beehler called from
two until five, the pleasant rooms of
the Beehler home being scene of
happy animation throughout the after
noon. Miss Beehler was assisted in
receiving and entertaining by the Mes
danes George Ford and A. Hollister
both Of whom were valuable aids in
making the afternoon success.
A flower game had been provided
the names of our common wild
and tame flowers being padlo mixed up
in their spelling on slips of paper and
and the guests having the task of cor
rectinE their Hostess's bad spelling
And to the merit of the young ladies
let it be said, there were sixteen who
received 100. In the cut for honors
Miss Holmes carried away the beauti
full boquet of roses, the envy of all thu
other guests present A luncheon o.
appropriate dishes was prettily served
and the afternoon ended leaving {
pleasant memory of delightful after
noon which will long be retained b.
the young ladies present.

Senator Allison sat on one of the
front seats and with folded arms stoical-
ly listened to everything without an
evidence of WEAKNESS. Not so with the
great Master of ceremonies in New
York state, Senator Plat. He sat be-
tween the two giants, Penrose, of Penn
sylvania, and Fairbanks, of Indiana,
and frequently acted as though he was
decidedly tired of the whole thing.
Mark Hanna seemed to enjoy all that
was going on, tho, no doubt, he was in
fact, thinking of his speech on the Sub
sidy Bill, which he is now delivering in.
the Senate. Governor Roosevelt shook
hands joyously with number of sena-
tors in his immediate neighborhood. and
smiled that breezy smile OF his which
shows so conspiciously his wall of splen-
did teeth. 1t is an open secret that the
Senators dread his coming; they don't
know what he will do when he gets in
the saddle. He is liable to whip up the
slow coach at the north end of the Cap
itol, and if those sedate gentlemen
should get move on them 1t might be
disastrous to some of their prehistoric
methods. Sir Julian Pauncefote gave
good heed for time, but at last took
to paper for comfort. 1t is supposed
however, that his aged ears caught the
sounds of denunciations of burning the
Capitol, the objection to stamp taxes
and the assertion that this branch of the
Anglo-Saxon people we're leading the
world.
Minister WI, the Chinese representa-.
tive, in his national dress, was smiling
agreeably as though there was no dispo
sition on the part of Christian nationl
to benevolently assimilate his people
out of existence. He is very intelli
gent heather, and one who knows evi
IDENTIFY what he is about.
Altogether the occasion was one no
soon to be forgotten, and the Washing
tonians are exceedingly proud Of thei
present standing and encouraged wit
the outlook. This city is bound to b
one of the noblest Capitals in the world
and the American people have ever
reason to be proud of it.
u But the pagentry of the day has de
parted. the glories of the occasion al
simply memory, and in the langusg
of Kipling it may be said, "The Cal
tains and the Kings depart" and, wit
some hesitancy, may we not trust thu
thebalance of the stsnzs, or qustrain
correct?
