DEATH OF MRS ELLEN DAVIS
Aged Mother OF Mrs Ley And Mrs
Chris kemming Passes Away After
Brief Illness.

On Friday evening March 1st &C.
Cured the death of Mrs. Ellen Davis.
Mrs. Davis had been i'll but short
time and had arrived in Denison the
week previous from visit with her
son in Green River. Wyoming. She
seemed to know that the end was APP
preaching and it was her one desire to
return to Denison to see her beloved
daughters once more and to die sur
rounded by their love. Brief funeral
services were held at the home of
Mrs. Lottie D. Ley on Sunday after
noon by Rev. 7. E. Thuresson. The
body was then conveyed to her old
home at Chair ton. Iowa for inter-
ment.
Mrs. Davis was we'll known and
much beloved by Denison people as
her visits to her daughters had been
frequent and prolonged. She was a
bright. helpful. motherly woman and
she made friends wherever she went.
Mrs. Davis was in her 73rd year.
She was born in Indiana and had been
a widow for many years. Her surviv-
ing children are Elmer Davis. of
Valley City, S. d. Frank Davis, of
Ottumwa. Ia. Lee Davis of Green
River. Wyo. and Mrs. Lottie D. Ley
and Mrs. Ola Kemming of Denison.
Three children. Charles. Jess and
Rufus preceded their mother to the
grave. Mrs. Davis also leaves two
sisters and two brothers to mourn her
loss. The many Denison trends feel
heart felt sympathy with the loved
ones in their great bereavement. ~

CONCERT GREATLY ENJOYED.
Denison Chorus Club Gives Splendid
Concert to a Crowded House.

On last Friday evening the Chorus
Club gave the first of a series of con-
certs to be given for the benefit of
the Cemetery Association. The opera
house was crowded and the program
was thoroughly enjoyed throughout.
Director B. j. Sibbert added new
laurels to his fame as a musician.
Perhaps the best number on the pro-
gram was the ladies quartette which
rendered the selection. Welcome
Pretty Primrose Flower exception
ally we'll.
The program opened with two
splendid numbers by the chorus.
"The Miller's Wooing and "'Red
Scarf. Miss Brackney so entertained
her auditors that she received a I'M
animous encore to which she respond
ed with clever impersonation. "The
Boatmans Goodnight was we'll rem
dered by the chorus and this was fol-
lowed by the Ladies Quartette. This
number also received AN enthusiastic
encore and was perhaps the most
artistic number of the evening. The
members of the quartette were Mrs.
Sibbert. who took the solo parts, and
Miss Sewell, Miss McAhren and Mrs.
Boynton.
Pinsuti's "Spring Song" was the
next chorus number and it was given
with excellent effect.
Miss Garnet Norman fairly excelled
herself. Her whistling was as near
perfection as we have ever heard and
it was the opinion of many that her
selections at this concert were the
best she has ever given in Denison
and that is saying very much. Miss
Norman responded to the enthusiastic
encore and when still another appear
ance was demanded she showed the
versatility of her talent by giving 9
very clever reading. This was a re-
violation even to Miss Norman many
admirers and showed that she can be-
a success in more than one role. a
representive of the Redpath Lyceun
Bureau who was present was delight
ed with her work and she has accepted
an engagement with that organiza
ton.
The male chorus gave an excellen
rendition of "'Massa S in the Col Col
Groun" with imitation banjo accom-
paniment. The selection was frs
class and received a hearty encore
The closing number Goodnight
Good night. Beloved was the best o
the chorus selections. 1t was given
"par excellence" and was fittint
close of a delightful evening. Thu
chorus club promises to give anothe
concert in the early part of April ant
we are sure that they will be greeted
by another large audience. The re
ceipts of the evening were about $50
and the cemetery fund is richer b.
about $50. Denison has much excellen
music talent and Mr.. Sibbert has tn
faculty of bringing the best of it out

be long time before there is use for
it in earnest.

TO OUR MANILA READERS.

AS will be noted above the Review
has arranged to fulfill all subscriptions
to the Manila Republican. the pub
LEGATION of which has been suspended.
All advance paid subscriptions will
be credited On the Review so that no
subscriber will lose a penny. 1t may
require a few days to arrange all
these credits properly and we would
ask the patience of our new readers
in this connection. The Review has
made arrangements with Mr.. Morgan
to act as Department Editor for the
Review for the present at least. 1t
will be his effort as we'll as ours to
give just as much local Manila News
as local paper. so that the sub
scribers will suffer no loss in Manila
news and will gain the large general
county news service given by the
Review. We would welcome our new
readers to the Review list. We will
do our best to please them and ask for
the paper at least careful consider
alton and fair trial on its merits.
The Review is printed on Tuesday
evening and will reach Manila each
Wednesday morning 1t will be the
first paper containing the news of
Manila and of the county. This
change will largely increase the Re-
view list, in the southern part of the
county. We believe that city of the
size of Manila can we'll support
local newspaper and that, without in
terfering with the circulation of
county paper such as the Review. The
columns of our Manila local news
will be free from personalities and will
give the news in an unprecedented way.
Again we would welcome our new
readers. We believe they will like the
Review if they will open their homes
and hearts to it for a short time. We
also believe that it will be for the
benefit of the local merchants and
business men of Manila that there
should be but one paper published in
the city. At the same time we would
call attention of Manila merchants
to the fact that the Review and Re
publican lists combined will be larger
than either has been separately and
that the Review will furnish an ex-
cellent advertising medium at very
reasonable rates.
Respectfully.

Handkerchief Centerpiece.

I have made very pretty center
piece from a gentleman's hemstitched
linen handkerchief, one yard of in
sertion (beading) and two and one-half
yards lace edging. I cut the handker-
chief in quarters and joined together
again with the beading, through which
I ran some ribbon. The lace I sewed
around the edge. Everyone admires
my centerpiece, and it is easily washed.

lengthwise. Remove the pulp drain

irritation of the skin. The same can
be said Of pillow cases, for unless they
are free from the washing fluids or
powders the face will be irritated BY
sleeping on the pillows. If the face
perspires, it naturally draws out the
alkali and very often the skin is pois-
oned in this way There is really less
danger from laundry work than by
the careless washwomen who let I've

laundry work.

Nutritious Bread.

The whitest -four is largely starch,
and contains but small amount OF
gluten. It has been NQbbed of it's
nutritive elements, the Apod- feeding
ingredient. The gluten Of Wheat is not
white, so you may be sure that your
white bread does not contain much Of
this valuable compound. 1T has been
said, and correctly, that bread is the
staff Of life. But the statement is no
longer true when applied to the fool
ishly fashioned white bread of our
tables.

LANDSCAPE PAPERS.

There has been a marked revival in the reproduction of the landscape pa pers of the colonial period. many of which still survive in the old Massa- chusetts scenes from towns such as Dedham and Salem. These papers re- produced scenes from foreign lands, the banks of the Seine with the char acteristic Parisian figures of that time or Vesuvius in eruption with Italians engaged in business or pleasure. In- dian scenes and the animals and veg etations of the tropics were favorite subjects with the old sea captains who inhabited some of these notable houses in the seaport towns. Such papers are obviously suited only to very large rooms where the ample wall space allows of their being placed to
