To Entertain a Bride.

r AM going to entertain eight young women In honor
Of bride and I had thought about playing
Il cards during the afternoon. Have a very nice
lawn and screened porch Can you suggest some other
means of passing the afternooni What would you
suggest for refreshments, and how would it be to
serve on the card tablesf don't want anything too
elaborate, as there is to serve except me and
my sister. Agnes M. H.
Cards certainly furnish delightful entertainment
for bride. If you do not care for shower and
many people heartily disapprove of them, thimble
bee would not be out of place. Hem towels Napkins
embroder for the bride during the afternoon Some
times each guest is asked to bring recipe and they
all copied in dainty booklet. It is NICE too, for
each girl to write letter to the bride to be opened
on her first anniversary on the honeymoon. Not
long ago at afternoon party the guests each took
one phase of the nuptal events music, courtship
honeymoon, etc. and after the letters were written
the reading Of them by the bride proved very inter-
estng.
The refreshments can be elaborate simple

is sufficient. Salads and sandwiches may be served

NOTED PHYSICIANS
ANNUAL CONVENTION OF THE
AMERICAN MEDICAL ASSocIA-
TON AT BOSTON NEXT WEEK.
Special to the Herald.

Special to the Herald.
Boston, Mass, June looming
from the four corners of the medical
world, thousands of physicians Of in
ternational fame will invade Boston
next week to attend the annual con-
vention of the American Medical As
ISOLATION. The visitors will be the
guests of the Massachusetts Medical
Society, and while here will inspect
the 100000 medical school of the
Harvard University, which opened
today for the first time.
One of the most interesting fea.
lures of the convention, and one
which has been sought to more fully
carry out the idea Of making the
meeting one of practical demonstra-
ton and first hand instruction to the
physicians attending. will be the i'm
portation from Washington of a fully
equipped field hospital. This fea.
ture, supplied by the national sur,
geon general, will consist Oh one hun
bred and fifty tents, beds and relief
and galloping ambulances, which will
be used to demonstrate the methods
employed in providing against camp
diseases and infection, and also to
show the means adopted by the Jap
anese to keep down the mortality
rate during the eastern war.
Before the great congress of TO-
900 delegates three orations are to be
delivered, one by DR.. A. c. Shattuck
of Boston on medicine, another by
Dr. Joseph D. Bryant of New York
on surgery, and third upon state med.
icine dealing with hygiene and state
legislation as relating to sanitary
laws) by DIR. w. H. Sanders of Mont
gomery, Ala.
Nearly fifty halls of the city have
been engaged for the meetings of the
society, and at these different places
the separate sections of the national
society-those of surgery, anatomy,
medicine, obstetrics, hygiene, diseases
of the eye, diseases of children, ner-
vous diseases, pharmacology and
therapeutics, pathology and physiol-
ogy will hold their separate meetings.

THE SENIOR SENATOR

is SEVENTY-FIVE YEARS OLD TO-

BEING CONGRATULATED.
Special to the Herald.

Special to the Herald.
Washington, d. c., June when
word was passed around the capitol
today that this was the seventy-fifth
birthday of Senator Redfield Proctor,
the senior senator from Vermont came
in for many hearty congratulations
from his colleagues. Senator Proctor
has been spoken of as one of the
least obtrusive members of the up
per house, and perhaps therein lies
one of the secrets of the genuine pop
ularity he enjoys on all sides. The
Vermont senator is not an orator in
the generally accepted sense of that
term. but he is a conscientious work
er and a deep thinker and his opin-
ions on great issues always carry
weight with his Republican col
leagues.
Senator Proctor was born at Proc
torsville. Vt. and graduated at Dart
mouth College and at the Albany Law
School. He began his political career
in 1867, when he was called to Yer
mont house OF representatives. He
did much in that capacity to improve
and revise the laws of the state. In
1876 he was elected lieutenant COVER
nor on the ticket with Governor Fair
child. Two years later he was elect
ed governor by a majority of twenty
thousand votes. Like his grand
father. Leonard Proctor, an officer in
the Revolutionary army, Redfield
Proctor fought for his country. He
was lieutenant in the Third Vermont
regiment at the opening of the civil
war. and was later on General W. F.
Smiths staff. Gettysburg found him
a colonel in the Fifteenth Vermont
After the war he practiced law, and
left that profession to become a mer-
chant.
He made creditable record when
he was secretary of war under Pres
ident Harrison. There is not a city
in the country" said Mr.. Proctor,
after looking around, that an enemy
couldn't she'll" Then he set to work
to remove cause for alarm. Under
his instruction sites for Notifications

priated for the construction of bat

tory at Watervliet was taken for the

and Kill the Germs.

Now that physicians and scientists
universally agree that catarrh is a
germ disease, the reason for the fail

ing in this trouble is readily seen.
Prior to the discovery of Hyomei, a
treatment which cures catarrh by fill
ing the air you breathe with germ
killing and healing medication, sta
tstics showed that at least ninety
seven out of every hundred persons
in this state were suffering from ca
tarrh Of some form.
The treatment with Hyomei is very
simple and pleasant; a small inhaler
comes with every outfit and three oil
four times a day Hyomei is breathed
through this. making the air at that
time like that found on the mountains
where the pine forests give Off their
fragrant and healing balsams.
The complete outfit costs but one
dollar, while extra bottles can be OBJ
tanned for so cents. Bratton Drug Co.
have seen so many remarkable re-
suits from the use of Hyomei that

absolute guarantee that II costs moth
