The readers of this paper will be pleasedto
learn that there is at least one dreaded dis
ease that science has been able to cure in all
itsstages, and that is Catarrh. Halls Catarrn
Cure is the only positive cure now known to
the medical fraternity. Catarrh being con-
stitutional disease, requires constitutional
treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure is taken inter-
nally, acting directly upon the blood and mu-
cous surfaces of the system, thereby destroy
ing the foundation of the disease and giving
the patient strength by building up the con-
stitution and assisting natu:e in doing its
work. The proprietors have so much faith in
its curative powers that they offer One Hun
bred Dollars for any case that it fails TO cure.

BRILLIANT SOCIAL FUNCTION
Thanksgiving Dance Given By woodrnen

which have been recorded as
occurring at the Brownsville opera
house, that scored by the Thanks
giving dance given under the aus
pices of Orange Grove, Woodmcn
Circle, deserves to rank as one of
the most Brilliant. In number of
attendance, elegance of costume,
and ali that goes to make up a
brilliant social assemblage, this
dance was the equal OF any that
have taken place in our city. The
decorations were not only very
beautiful but were quite unique.
The name of the circle, Orange
Grove, was most appropriately
typifed by numerous branches of
orange trees bearing ripe, golden
fruit, which were utilized most eff
fectively for decorative purposes,
the three large central chandeliers
being thus adorned. On each space
between the windows axes, en-
blematic of woodcraft, were cross
ed, each pair adorned with orange
branches with the golden fruit
pendant therefrom. An immense
American flag was gracefully car
opied over the main entrance, and
the stage was trimmed with smaller
flags. Each member of the circle
wore the colors of the organization,
lavender and green. in ribbons fas-
tened on dress or coat lapel.
Dancing began about eight o clock
and was participated in byas many
as the large hall could accommo-
date, the excellent music and
smooth floor being irresistible to
all devotees of the dance. At eleven
O'Clock a light luncheon, consist
ing of sandwiches, olives and cof-
fee, was served, the tables being
set on the stage. There were two
large tables each seating fOrtv-four
guests. The decorations consisted
of a profusion of the choicest cut
flowers, such as roses, lilies, tube
roses, etc. Both the orange branch
es with the fruit upon them used
in the hall and the flowers were
native products from Brownsville
gardens.
There were between eighty and
a hundred couples present, includ-
ing besides the home contingent a
large member of visitors from Mat
Hidalgo county, Kings
vile and Corpus Christi. Repres-
of Ahuehuete Camp No.
1845, w, O, W, of Matamoros and
also of Lila Grove of tfidalgo were
present, and Fort Brown was also
represented by nearly all of the Of
6cers and ladies of the post.
This is the first public entertain
ment given by Orange Grove and
the members are to be congratulate
ed. Both socially and financially,
it was a grand success.
