THREE DINNER PARTIES
Hrs. l, w. Seaman, Entertained
Large Number of Guests Three
Evenings Last Week.

The home of Mrs. l. w. Seaman,
corner Of Rowley and Fifth streets,
was the scene of three dinner par
ties last week, given on Tuesday
Thursday and Friday evenings. At
each party about forty guests were
present, and the functions were
planned and carried out to a nicely
by the hostess. The tables were
spread in the various rooms, the
guests being grouped into small par
ties. The decorations were extreme
by pretty or this occasion, apple
blossoms and roses being used in
happy combination and effect. The
rooms were permeated with the odor
Of these flowers and they were in
such p~rofusion as to lend a scene of
snchansllent to the whole. 1t was
a pleasurable task that Mrs. Seaman
performed and she was accorded
high praise for the very elegant
manner in which she entertained her
guests. In this she was assisted by
her mother. Mrs. NJ. N. Lee, her
sister, Miss Myrtle Lee, and by her
daughter, Miss Hazel Lathrop. Misses
Perle Richard, Mary Morrow, Fay
Corwin and Hazel Lath1op served
the guests at the tables each even
Eng.
Musical features we're contributed
through the dinner parties by Miss
Perle Richard, who played a piano
solo, and Miss Myrtle Lee who sang
some of her prettiest solos. Miss
Hazel Lathrop was heard on one or
two occasions, and the singing of
these two was much enjoyed. Thurs
day evening Miss Grace White, of
Yerlniilion. played a piano solo in a
manner that brought forth sincere
applause. Friday evening Miss Rich
ard played again and she received
the deserved appreciation of the
guests. Walter Seaman appeared one
two evenings in an elocution
number and his fine manner of rem
dering his selections brought him
hearty applause.
Those who attended the dinner
parties will remember them as very
happy affairs. The dinners were
served each evening at I O'clock.

Athletics VS..

"Ihere must be no exercise as eN-
ercise for the consumption patient"
says Eugene Wood in Everybody's
Magazine for June. "If you are
able to feel like it, amuse Yourself,
but don't take exercise to build your
system up. [ know. [, too, have
heard those stories about men given
up to die, who began work In a GYM
nasium and by violent exercise en-
tirely recovered their health. You
mustn't believe all the ~physical-cal-
tu1e people tell you, any more than
all the patent medicine people tell
you. They're both in the miracle
business. When tie lung tissue is
attacked by tuberculosis it heals,
if it heals at all, by this tlbrous,
scar-material filling in the cavity.
No new lung tissue is formed to re-
place what has been lost, and this
scar material is useless for breath
ling. Suppose you had a deep cut in
your hand, and you kept working
that hand violently, how long do you
think it would take the cut to heal?
When exercise is taken or you sex
pand the lungs" you have to work
the lung tissue-just as you work your
hand, and il 1T is wounded there will
be a much larger proportion Of scar
material useless for breathing when
it does get we'll. 1t is the practice
now to make the effected lung i'm
mobile with strips Of adhesive plas-
ter, and to inject it with nitrogen
gas, so that the lung won't work"

than was the case a year ago. The
weather was simply ideal for the
athletic events, and everything passed
Off smoothly and with very little,
if any, wrangling over the contest.

Dear Sir: Your letter received
with request that | briefly state my
reasons for voting for resublnjssion
of the capital question to a vote OF
the people.
I believe that a large majority OF
the voters desired to have an OPP
portunity to express their convic-
tions as to whether Pierre was the
best place for the capital, or whether
some town in the Jim river valley
would not be more accessible and
easier reached by the people of the
state than the present location.
The question was brought up in
most every legislature since the
capital was located. The state wa:
