not To purchase the only remedy uni

has had the largest sale OF any
medicine in the world since 1865 for
the cure and treatment of Consump-

without losing its great popularity
all these years, yon will be thankful
we called your attehtion To BOschee' s
German Syrup, There are so many
ordinary cough, temedies made by
druggists and others that are cheap
aud good for light colds perhaps,
but for severe Coughs, Bronchitis, 4,

DISTINCTIVE SUCCESS
Puritan Social Attended by q
LARGE Crowd.

The Puritan social at the home of
Mr.. and Mrs. T. A. Ferris last night
given by the ladies of the Main
Street Christian church, was a
pleasing departure from the usual
reception and a distinctive success.
No home in the city Is better
adapted to entertaining than this
and the gracious host and charming
hostess are never better pleased
than in extending hospitality to their
guests. The interior of the house
was tastefully decorated with cut
flowers and palms, while the lar1 g
parlors, spacious halls and cozy
corners gave opportunity for pleas
ant conversation and delightful
games.
The house party of young ladies
were gowped in simple frocks an1
caps of white, which lent an air of
novelty 70 the surroundings that
WAS decidedly pleasing. 1t was the
duty Of these young ladies, after as
sisting the hostess in receiving her
guests, 10 inspect each one and
assess the fines, and IL they over
looked a finable offense it was not
the fault of their keen eyes.
Dainty refreshments were served
in the dining room. Tables in each
o the four parlors and the upstairs
hall afforded opportunity for finch
players and this new game was
easily the attraction Of the evening.
Miss Dearing favored the company
with several selections On the piano
and MIR. Miller with II solo. The
Iphouograph also contributed no
little to the amu Sements Of the
hour
| From every point the social was q
delightful success for which Mr.
and Mrs. Ferris and the ladies Of
the church are 10 congratulated.

of the late A R. Wadsworth. Sunday
afternoon. The services were held
from the late residence of the deceas-

present to pay their last respects to
the remains.

and associates were all present and
the occasion was a most solemn one.

The Rebekah's. the auxiliary or
ganization. of which deceased was also
a member, were present in body.
The remains of the deceased reposed
in handsome metallic casket in the
front room of the residence. The
features of the deceased were most
lifelike and it was hard to realize that
but a few weeks ago the deceased
had left this city with such high
hopes for the future and for the bet
terment of his health. The space sur
rounding the casket was literally en-
banked with floral offerings from the
various organizations and from the
members of the family itself. These
pieces were beautiful in the extreme
and gave evidence of the love and
respect in which the deceased was
held as parent, citizen. fraternal
member and man.

gational church. held short service
at the house. Mrs. Cropesy and a
