aThe Blood Is The Life.v

Science has never COMO beyond the
above simple statement OF scripture.
But II has illuminated that statement
and given 1t meaning ever broadening
with the increasing breadth Of knowl-
edge. When the blood is sbad or im-
pure Il is not alone tho body which
suffers through disease. The brain is
also clouded, the mind and judgements
are effected, and many IN evil deed or
impure thought may be directly traced
to the impurity of the blood. Foul,
impure blood can be made pure by the
use of DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis
covery. 1t enriches and pnrifes the
blood thereby curing, pimples, blotches,
eruptions and other cutaneous affections,
as eczema, letter, or salt-rheum, hives
and other manifestations OF impure
blood.

Pythian Banquet.

Pythian circles in Lexington have
for several weeks past been on the qui
vive for the banquet which took place
at the Pythian club rooms lastWednes-
day night, and their most sanguine
expectations were more than fulfilled.
1t was by all odds the most elaborate
and sumptuous affair of that nature
ever given in the history of our city
and reflects most creditablY upon the
ability,and judgment of those in charge
Neatly printed invitation cards, of
emblematic designs, had previously
been sent out, which proved most po-
tent, nearly the entire membership
responding. The club rooms, by the
deft fingers and exquisite taste of the
| members of the Methodist Ladies Aid
Society, had been transformed into a
veritable bower of beauty, with holly
and the general color scheme of the
Yule-tide. The tables were also set
and arranged by the ladies in their
characteristic skillful and incompar
able manner.
The members gathered in the castle
ball at 7 80 O'Clock to confer degrees.
and it is needless to say that it was
the largest gathering ever held since
te organization of the lodge. Under
the able supervision of Grand Chan
cellor Commander w. A. Sessions, r.
P. johnson was initiated into the
subtitle arcana of the second rank and
also the third rank, the latter being
likewise conferred on s. d. Bailey.
The Order of the Knights of Bir-
imgham was then conferred on |. Hy-
man, Morris Lewis and Sam Herman,
after which, at 10 80 o'clock, all re.
paired to the banquet hall to partake
of the most excellent and Eplcurean
rejection prepared by the ladies.
Hon. William Arthur Pierce, as
toastmaster, opened the speech making,
which proved veritable feast of
reason and flow of soul, and replete
with bon mots, witticisms. brilliant
repartee and flashes of oratory. The
following, in the order given, respond
ed to calls for toasts on various subjects
H. A. Rosenthal, Parham Williams,

pie, Hon. w. P. Tackett. DR.. g. G.

The banqneters were each provided

following most excellent selection
had been made by the chefs in charge !:
Olives, pickles, celery. oysters on the
half shell, fried oysters Chilli sauce,
