"The William Houston Patterson Memo rial Cup-1Ss4-1904."
 The design of the cup Is singularly beautiful. The care required in repro ducing the coat-of-arms, and in select ing the rare uncut gems with which 1t is to be encrusted, adds to the great artistic value of the cup. It will hardly be fin- ished before April, and 1t will probably be exhibited in Philadelphia before 1t Is sent south. It will be a superb piece of workmanship.
 The gift of this cup is fraught with special significance. The Patterson low ing cup will perpetuate the name of brilliant scholar and writer. While, un- fortunately, Colonel Patterson did not make any serious effort to collect his contributions in permanent form. as they deserved, yet at the time of his death he was engaged in writing his memoirs and intended publishing them. These private manuscripts, now in the possesses sion of his family, contain much that is of historical value. As the son of General Robert Patterson of Philadel- pha, the late Colonel Patterson enjoyed the friendship of many of the great men in this country, who were the com panions of his illustrious father. At the old Patterson mansion, the remains of which now constitute a part of the Pennsylvania Historical society, the most martial and picturesque figures of the last century, soldiers, statesmen, diplo- mats of this country and of foreign coun- tries, gathered over the generals terra pin and old Madeira. He, 1t was said, was the most famous bonvivant of his day; he, to whom history is indebted for many memorable and brilliant campaigns in the annals of war.
 From some recently published extracts from Colonel Pattersons private manu- scripts, few of the illustrious guests who were from time to time entertained in the Patterson mansion include Con- modore Jesse D. Elliott, John Mercer Brooke who planned the Merrimac for the Confederacy; Adjutant- General Seth Williams. Mrs. Henry R. Schooleraft, the Chippeway wife of the Mississippi river explorer; General Fitzjohn Porter, Gen eral Scott and Major Croghan. The va ried talent and character of the guests whom the general was accustomed to gather around him is shown in such names as Captain Francis Marryat, the Duke of Saxe-Weimar, Colonel Bonnet Riley of Cerro Gordo fame, Commodore Perry. General Quitman, Colonel Jack Hay, Governor Hamilton of Texas. Mar tin F. Tupper, G. P. R. James, Governor Bigler Paul du Chaillu and Dr. Kane.
 "One of the memories of it's early days which the host is said to have particu- larly cherished" comments a contempo- rary of Colonel Patterson, was the great reception which he gave there to James K. Polk, when Polk, as President of the United States, paid his first visit to Philadelphia, and when General Patter- son. 1t was thought, might be summoned to his cabinet,''

THE NEW ORLEANS CARNIVAL.

Each year of the carnival brings to '1sSw Orleans so many visitors that the list of tableaux and balls will hold much interest for society generally. The New Orleans Picayune, in commenting upon the approaching gaieties, says:
 The carnival season of 1905, which in New Orleans always begins with the .splendid tableaux and ball of the Twelfth Night Revelers, January 6-that being a fixed anniversary-will cover a period of two months. Usually 1t is much shorter, since Mardi Gras usually falls in Febru- ary. The thirteen big festival events,

THE MISSES WHEELER.

The visit to Memphis of Miss Annie Wheeler and Miss Caroline Wheeler, the daughters of General Joseph Wheeler, has been the occasion of many brilliant events in their honor Of a luncheon given on Thursday the Memphis Com mercial-Appeal says:
 A tribute of memory from the old south to the new, and an enviable social honor, beside, was Mrs. Gastons lunch- con on Thursday In honor of Miss Annie and Miss Caroline Wheeler of Wheeler, Ala, daughters of the old Confederate general.
 The entertainment was essentially Con federate, the red white and red being dominant hues, arranged in delicate com pliment to the man who wore the gray, as well as Ito his two charming daugh- ters.
 A flag of memory and a flag of con quest waved together in the great en- trance hall of this old-fashioned vet stately beautiful southern home The folds of field flag of the old Confeder- acy met and mingled with the silken ban her of the Stars and tripes. Memories hallowed both banners, as they mingled their silken folds above the palms and graced the hall and stairways.
 In the dining room red, white and red were everywhere in evidence
 The table was covered with crimson satin, overdraped with a cloth of rich old lace. Two Confederate battlefags, made of American Beauty and brides maid roses, occupied the center. Over these, from the chandelier. fell a cloud of tulle, like the mist of the years that lay between.
 Crimson tapers in tall, old-fashioned holders. with meteor shades, gave A. pretty glow to the festive scene. The menu was faultless, and carried out in detail the Confederate motif
 Miss Annie and Miss Caroline Wheeler were gowned alike in beautiful creations of white crepe de chine and lace.

 One reads a great deal about carnivals in Rome, along the Riviera and in other parts of southern Europe, but as the Chicago Tribune said not long ago, our leisure classes know a vast deal more about foreign lands than they do about their own county-particularly the south and most particularly New Orlaens. The few however, who able, through personal experience, to make just com parison. will unanimously corrob- crate our assertion that nowhere in the world can one witness a carnival as brilliant, as picturesque, as gay, as or- derly and as delightful as in the old F'rench-Spanish capital of Louisiana. which lies within thirty hours of Anglo Saxon Washington

Open Session Of Y. W. C. r. U

Open Session Of Y. ". C. T.U
The open session of the Young
Woman's Christian Temperance
Union held Sunday evening in the
Baptist church was one of the
best yet held. The attendance was
very good, and an excellent pro-
gram was furnished. A choir
composed of the members of the
Y. w. C. T. u. furnished the
music.
The meeting was opened by a
song followed by prayer by Mr..
Bruce Trimble. The presiding
officer, Miss Elizabeth Wyatt, then
read "a paper entitled, "What is
High License?" This was followed
by a selection by Miss Fisher
Greene. Then came selections by
Misses Refs, Drake, Sharp, and
Rogers under the general head.
License an Outrage" Mrs.
Grubbs, President of tue Y. w. C
I. u, Tread paper on What
Shall We do with the Saloon P"
After reading the paper, Mrs.
Grubbs made a short talk in which
she expressed her satisfaction at
the increasing interest shown IN
the temperance work and her hopes
for continuance of progress in
the direction of prohibition.
Two of the best things of the
evening were, solo by Miss Emily
Nesbitt, and recitation, "Say
No." by Miss Eliza Nunnelley who
in this very attractive way cele-
brated her tenth birthday.
The idea about which the vari
Gus papers centered was that TO
accept license money is to receive
polluted money, and that in doing
this the State and county enter
into partnership in the destruction
of character-that license money
is blood money

WINTER EATING RUINS sTOWAcHs.
Now is t1a Time You Need Mi
ma" Says W. S. Lloyd.

Think for moment of the extra
strain you put upon the stomach in
the Winter. The hearty food, the
late suppers, and the lack of exer-
else aud out door life all weaken
and strain the stomach, laying the
foundation for poor health and suf-
fering.
Chronic stomach troubles, ner-
vous irritability, and serious bowel
and kidney diseases have often
dated from week of extra good
living" Nearly everyone is both
cred with more or less headaches
and backaches, furred tongue, poor
appetite, dry, hacking cough,
heartburn, spots before the eyes,
dizziness or vertigo, sleeplessness,
lack of energy, loss of flesh or a
general weak, tired feeling.
Now is the time when Mi o-na is
needed TO repair the ravages and
wastes the hearty eating of Winter
has caused in the stomach and di
gestive system. This is the only
known agent that strengthens the
stomach and digestive organs, so
they can and will readily digest
whatever food is eaten. A Mi-o-na
tablet taken before each meal will
remove all irritation, Inflammation
and congestion in the digestive or
gans, and so strengthen them that
they will extract from the food all
that goes to make good rich blood.

This remarkable remedy costs
so cents, and if its use does not re-
