THE CHEROKEE HOP.

The Cherokee Club, on Thursday
evening, gave one of their delightful
dances, new and pleasing feature of
which was the presence of so many of
our young married people and some of
the older ones too. 1t is time that
the new fact of separation of ladies
and gentlemen in social matters
should be discontinued. It reminds
one of country churches of long ago,
men on one side and women on the
other, and tiny boy in petticoats
had to stand in the middle aisle.
These young matrons were SO lovely
and interesting they veid with the
girls as s'Belles Of the Ball." And
the sweet bright girls never looked
prettier in their fresh becoming toilets
Like flowers that bloomed in the
spring. Ira La.
Among the new members we noticed
Mr.. and Mrs. Gus Suberbielle, Mr..
and Mrs. Henry Suberbielle, Mr.. and
Mrs. Oscar Dupre, MI. and Mrs. j.
N. Thibodeanx. Mr.. and Mrs. Ledoux
Smith, are also new members, but
were not present. Among the chap
erones were Mr.. and Mrs. Sharp, Mr..
and Mrs. Gayle, Mrs. johnson, Mrs.
Jamerson, Mr.. and Mrs. r. a. Pom.
roy. Mrs. Earl Barnett of Center
vile was there looking as bright and
lovely as when q few years ago she
was always belle at all social func-
tions. Miss Louise Taylor was play
ing chaperone on this occasion. So
while the young matrons and maidens
were enjoying the merry dance, their
was no lack of sparkling wit and mirth
among the ION lockers One of the
gentlemen dancers asked ala1y in this
happy group for dance, she replied:
"She had not danced since she was
girl" Knowing her to be unmarried
and looking into her bright attractive
young face, he said: "Well! what
are you now. she replied: THAT de-
ponds upon who is talking about me. "
What world of thought those few
words expressed. But we are talk
ing Of the party and must not moral
ize. The refreshments were fruit
punch and delicious cake, just enough.

No Poisson Ia Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy,

From Nipier New Zealand, Herald:
Two years ago the Pharmacy Board of
New South Wales, Australian, had an an
alysis made of all cough medicines that
were sold in the market. Out of entire
list they found only one that they de-
clared was entirely free from all poisons.
This exception was Chamberlain Cough
Remedy, made by the Chamberlain Med
icine Company, DesMoines, Iowa, US. A.
The absence of all narcotics makes this
remedy the safest and best that can be
had; and it is with feeling of security
that any mother can give it to her little
ones. Chamberlain Cough Remedy is
especially recommended by its makers FOR
coughs, colds, Group and whooping cough.
This remedy is for sale by all druggists.

A single pound of coal is capable of

hardihood to speak frankly. What do
we ordinarily do? We trample on
natural disposition, level it down to
the uniformity which for the crowd is
synonymous with good form. To think
with ones own mind, feel with ones
own heart, express ones own person
ality-how unconventional, how rusticl
oh, the atrocity of an education which
consists in the perpetual muzzling Of
the only thing that gives any of us his
reason for being! OF how many soul
murders do we become guilty! Some
are struck down with bludgeons, others
gently smothered with pillows Every
thing conspires against independence of
character. When we are little, people
wish us to be dolls or craven images;
when we grow up they approve of us
on condition that we are like all the
rest of the world-automatons when
you have seen one of them you've seen
them all. So the lack of originality
and initiative is upon us, and platitude
and monotony are the distinctions Of
today. Truth can free us from this
bondage. Let our children be taught
to be themselves. to ring clear, with
out crack or muffie. Make loyalty a
need to them, and in their gravest fail
ures, II only they acknowledge them,
account it for merit that they have not
covered their sim
To frankness let us add ingenious
ness in our solicitude as educators. Let
US have for this comrade of childhood
a tri6e uncivilized, it is true, but so
gracious and friendly-all possible re-
gard. We must not brighten 1t away.
When it has once fed it so rarely
comes back! righteousness is not sim
ply the sister of truth. the guardian of
the individual qualities of each of us;
1t Is besides great informing and edu-
eating force. | see among us too many
practical people, so called, who go
about armed with terrifying spectacles
end huge shears to ferret out naive
things and clip their wings. They up
root righteousness from life, from
thought, from education, and pursue 1t
even to the region Of dreams. Under
pretext of making men of their chill
dren they prevent their being children
at all; as IL before the ripe fruit Of au-
tumn, flowers did not have to be, and
perfumes, and songs Of birds, and all
the fairy springtime.
ask indulgence for everything naive
and simple-not alone for the innocent
conceits that fiutter round the curly
heads of children, but also for the leg
end, the folk song, the tales of the
world of marvel and mystery. The
sense of the marvellous is in the child
the first form of that sense of the in
finite without which a man is like
bird deprived of wings. Let us not
wean the child from it, but let US guard
In him the faculty of rising above
what is earthly, SO that he may appre-
ciate later on those pure and moving
symbols of vanished ages wherein hu-
man truth has found forms Of expression
that our arid logic will never replace.

ADVERTISEMENTS.

Some think that few people read the
newspaper advertisements, but most do
and benefit by it. The most intelligent
readers find as much interest there as
in many of the so-called news columns.
An advertisement is news, for it tells
an interesting fact III the most interest
ing manner, and under it lies the bull
wark of our prosperity, the almighty
dollar. A keen business man can Judge
of the business life Of some distant
place better by the advertisements of
its newspapers than by the regular
news columns. The advertisements be-
speak energy and enterprise or lack of
them.
Women are close readers of advertis-
ing columns, for they have the shopping
instinct and watch for bargains. The
children read advertisements, for they
are inquisitive and like to know what
is going on. If you think few see an
advertisement, insert one attacking a
neighbor and note how quickly he will
know it. The people of today are in
telligent and do their buying accord
ingly. In the advertising columns they
find information that pays. The will
and the wallet both turn toward adver-
tisements, and the wise minds find
them of absorbing interests.

The following marriage notice is
taken from the Detroit Journal and
will be of interest to our readers, the
groom being son of Mr.. and Mrs. III.
a. Higgins of this city and is well and
fayorably known here:
"George II. Higgins of Co. G, First
infantry, and Miss Lulu Workman,
daughter of Mrs. Elizabeth Workman,
of l72 Antietam street, were quietly
married at the Workman home Monday
evening. The bride, who was dressed
in white gloria silk, was attended by
Miss Elizabeth Higgins, cousin of the
groom. Godfrey Workman, brother of
the bride, acted as groomsman. The
ceremony was solemniZed by Rev. Barr
of the Jefferson avenue Presbyterian
church.
Among the out of town guests at
tending the ceremony were the parents
of the groom, Mr.. and Mrs. II. a. Hig-
gins, of North Baltimore, o.: Mr. b. p.
Stratton, of Bowling Green, o., and Mr..
and Mrs. +. A. Griswold, of Yale, Mich.
Many friends of the couple were pre-
sent. \ string orchestra of ten pieces,
composed of members of the First In

the wedding march. The groom, who
is mail orderly at the fort, has the best
wishes of his many friends in the post"

The atal Vice.

When you find yourself leaning in
the direction of a leather cushioned
chair or an air-flled settee look out,
says an unidentified contemporary.
The fellow who is always hunting for a
nice place to sit down will have no
place to rest his weary bones in short
while. 1t makes one sick to walk into
some places and see able-bodied men
trying TO do business with all their
energies bent on getting the soft side of
a chair. When a man gets the "sit
down" disease before he is fifty il is all
up with him. LaZiness is fatal. You
can cure almost any other kind Of vice.
A drunkard may brace up, man may
get rid of hot temper, wild boy may
settle down, but lazy man is hope
less proposition. Get some one TO give
you swift kick every time you feel
yourself gravitating towards the eush-
ion. Nip the thing in the bud. If you
are an employer, don't keep a sanitar-
ium for the cure of the malady. Let
somebody else do the nursing. Give
the lazy man his walking ticket That
will do him more good than all the
preaching you can put into his head
and there is more money in it for you.
