MUSIC CLUBS ORCHESTRA.

Will Be Heard by Public for First
Time Tomorrow.
A widespread interest is being taken
in the concert in the Lawton Memorial
by the Music Club orchestra tomorrow
night. This will be the first opportuni-
ty given the general public of hearing
this orchestra.
So far this excellent orchestra, one
Of the best that Savannah has ever
had, has played only at the meetings
of the Music Club when only the men,
bers of the club, and their invited
guests, have been present, and another
occasion when the public can hear it
may not arise for some time.
In addition to the numbers on the
programme, as mentioned in yester-
days Morning News, Mr.. W. S. Blum
known here as a gifted and able elo-
cutionist will give a recitation.
The committee in charge of the con-
cert has sent invitations to the various
orphan homes of the city for the older
children to be present tomorrow even
ing and the Episcopal Orphans Home
have accepted for thirteen of the girls
there.
This is very considerste thought
on the part of those in charge of the
concert, as the children of the orphan
homes have few opportunities of such
pleasures. Those in charge of St.
Mary's Orphans Home declined the
invitation because of a rule of the in
stitution against permitting the
children to go out at night

COSTS NOTHING UNLESS CURED
A Fair Oner Made by knights Phar-
macy Co. to All Sufferers
from Catarrh.


Knights Pharmacy Company are
selling Hyomei on a plan that has
caused considerable talk amongst their
customers.
The plan is different from that fol-
lowed by other remedies, but the rem
edy itself is different also. This treat
ment for the cure of catarrh has such
an unusual record of cures to it's cred
it that knights Pharmacy Company
offer to refund the money If it does
not give the desired benefit. This is
certainly one of the fairest offers that
can be made, and any one who has
catarrh and does not take advantage
of it is doing himself or herself an
injustice.
The Hyomei treatment consists of
an inhaler that can be carried in the
vest pocket, a medicine dropper and
a bottle of Hyomei. The complete
treatment COSTS but $1.00 and as the
inhaler will last a lifetime and there is
sufficient Hyomei for more than
months use, the medicine is very in
expensive. Many people who have
mel has done them they would will
ingly pay thousands of dollars.
Extra bottles of Hyomei can be pro-
cured for use-,with the inhaler at SOC.
Do not suffer any longer with tick
ling, smarting, irritating, burning,
eye-watering troubles that aff1ict those
who have catarrh. Hyomei will cure
you, but if you should not find it
adapted to your case knights Phar-
macy Company will refund your mon
ey.

THE OLD SOUTH
AND HER NOBLE SONS
Rev. Charles H. Strongs Discourse on South.
ern Heroes

fees, disappointments and sorrows that
came afterwards, all were vivid memo
ries; and through it all shone out the
splendid heroism of the men of The
South Surrounded by everything that
made life worth living, the young men
cheerfully marched away, to die per-
haps and lie in unmarked graves, In
a strangers land. Herotsm is not al
ways conspicuous, and there were
thousands of heroes whose names ere
never known. But their deeds have
not been in vain, even though the nag
for which they died has been furled.
Some in the present generation, said
Mr.. Strong, question the advisability
or propriety in bringing up the mem
cries of the past, but it is right that
the deeds of heroes should never be
forgotten. 1t is right that the young
people of to-day should know that their
fathers and grandfathers stood for
principles and gave to the world a
picture of patriotism and self-sacritice
such as 1t had never before known. 1t
is right for them to know, and 1t is
for the world to know that the same
blood flows in the blood of the South
to-day and her sons are ready to stand
with their brethren for the old flag,
that held the stars for them before the
terrible years of the war between the
states. They have the same courage
and the same undaunted spirit that
made them admired of all men, though
they fell.
1t is right that the children coming
on should learn the story of the great
struggle and understand why these
flowers are laid upon the graves and
the names of our heroes are held
sacred. There should be undying 10y
atty for these men who lived and
fought for heroic duty. In the ten
dency towards materialism the pic
lures of these men who died for truth
and right stand out as examples that
must not be put aside.
