Athena, Jan. 4.-One of the most
delightful New Years parties given
in Athena was that given by Mr.. and
Mrs. A. A. Foss and Mr.. and Mrs.
Fred Kershaw. The rooms of the
Commercial club were tastefully dec
grated in green and white for the oc-
casion. Progressive whist was play
ed. A large number of Athena peo-
pie were present, and all pronounc-
ed it most delightful New Years
eve.
About 60 young people gathered at
the Christian church Tuesday eve
ming, chaperoned by several Of the
ladies, and passed the evening in a
very enjoyable way. Games were
played and refreshments were served.
They watched the old year out and
the new one in.
Editor F. B. Boyd OF the Athena
Press, was a recent visitor in Port
land. He returned Tuesday, report
ing a very enjoyable time.
A. G. Gilliland has arrived here
from Hilgard. having accepted the
position of night operator at the de-
pot here, in place of H. N. Payne,
who has gone to Spokane after being
here for some months.
Tonight installation ceremonies will
be held by Wild Horse lodge No. 73,
1. o. o. F. A grand banquet will be
one of the features OF the evening.
Mrs. N. d. Swearingen, accompan-
Ter by her daughter, was a recent
visitor here with her friend, Mrs W.

Byron Hawks has been under the
weather the past week with an at
tack of la grippe.
A few days ago in this correspond
ence it was mentioned that the school
tax levy for the Athena district' for
this year was 10 mills. This was an
error in figures. as the levy for the
Athena district this year is but two
and a half mills, the lowest tax on
record, 1t is thought. The present
school year is very successful and the
public schools are being improved
and enlarged as rapidly as possible

Prescription Which Is said to Relieve
Chronic Cases OF rheumatism Can
be Easily Prepared by Anyone

place, for 1t is valuable and worth
more than anything else in the world
IL you should have an attack of rheu-

rangement Of the kidneys whatever
The prescription is simple, and can
be made up by anyone at home. The
ingredients can be had at any good
prescription pharmacy and all that Is
necessary is to shake them we'll In a

Here It is: Fluid extract dandelion,
one-half ounce; compound Kargon

Take a teaspoonful after each meal
and at bedtime. A few doses is said
to relieve almost any case Of bladder
trouble, frequent urination, pain and
scalding, weakness and backache;
pain above the kidneys, etc. 1t is
now claimed to be the method of cur
ing chronic rheumatism, because OF
