The fourteenth annual banquet OF the
Alumni Association Of the Audubon
high school was served blythe Methodist
Aid Society in the basement OF the
church. There may be an error in the
number of the banquet, although the
program so read; in reality we believe it
is but the third. The supper consisted
of four courses and reflected credit on
those hoprepared it. The service by the
girl members Of the junior class OF the
high school and four assistants deserve
special mention, since it equalled any
thing of the kind ever done in the town.
Fred Blume the president of the associa.
ton, acted as POSTMASTER. He spoke at
some length and showed careful prepare.
ton for the honor thrust upon him. His
closing speech was given with enthus-
siasm and oratorical effect. He is an
alumnus of whom our schools are proud.
Louis Roberts briefly but appropriately
welcomed the class Of 1900 and compar.
ed the evenings entertainment to the
triumphal procession OF Caesar. He is
a strong student and tireless worker.
Teresa Stanton responded to the vel.
come and kept the attention OF all
present. She spoke Of her class being
an acquisition in quantity il not in
quality, and said they hoped to prove
themselves worthy members OF the asso-
citation. This was one of the best toasts
given. Miss Kitty Schneider was to have
given toast on Lights" but failed to
preform her part, Miss Dora Detwiler
one of the county's most successful
teachers then gave an imgropter talk
she told one or two very clever stories
VIM. Cunningham, principal OF the
Gray schools told some numerous things
about "Blunders." He has n pleasant
manner of talking and it is pleasure t.
listen to him; he possesses the ability Of
becoming fine speaker. Music by an
orchestra OF -four was interpreted be
tween these toasts; the musicians also
played during the entire banquet.

Woman Is often referred to by man as
doubling his joys and halving his SORROWS. u
That may be complimentary but 1t would
seem rather hard on woman. For In plain
terms II means that where things are going
well with the man his wife makes them 20
better. But when things are going Ill with
him he expects the wife to share half his
burden. And there's more truth than poet.
ry In this presentation of masculine selfish
ness. Men don't appreciate the fact that
the strain of motherhood alone Is a burden
bigger than all the loads that rest upon
male shoulders. They see the wife grow
thin, pale, nervous and worn without a
thought that she is over burdened. Among
the pleasant letters received by DR.. Pierce
are those from husbands who have walked
up before 1t was too late to the crushing
burdens laid upon the wife, and in the
search for help have found in DR.. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription a restorative which
has given back to the mother the health of
the maiden and the maiden's happiness
'Favorite Prescription" always helps, and
almost always cures. 1t has perfectly cured
ninety-eight out of every hundred women
who have used it when afflicted with dis
eases peculiar to women.
