Women Who Wear Well.

1t Is astonishing how great change .
few years OF married life often make In
the appearance and disposition OF many
women. The freshness, the charm, the
brilliance vanish like the bloom from a
peach which is rudcly handled. The
matron is only dim shadow, faint echo
OF the charming maiden. There are two
reasons for this change, ignorance and
neglect. Few young women appreciate
the shock TO the system through the
change which comes with marriage and
motherhood. Many neglect TO deal with
the unpleasant pelvic drains and weak
nesses which too often come with mar
rage and motherhood, not understanding
that this secret drain is robbing the cheek
OF its freshness and the form of its
fairness.

The Greer Reunion.

No muse can speak the human heart,
No troubadour in his sweet lay,
Can voice the love that forms part
OF our festivity today.
1t was happy crowd of people who
gathered at the city pavilion Wednes-
day afternoon to do honor to the MEM
DRY of Grandma and Grandpa Greer.
Joy and gladness seemed to be the
burden of song and story, mirth glad
denned the CONTINGENCIES of young and
old, who joined into happy unit, while
love actuated every heart and made
itself felt in warm hand-clasps, affec.
Tomato greetings and welcome remines-
cences. A pleasant feeling of frater-
nifty savored the delicious repast and
made it doubly palatable to guests and
relatives. Truly the utterances of a
poet would be necessary to weave such
gladness, comfort and fraternity into
word fabric of peace and beauty.
At p. m. the program began.
Babies, children, youths, middle aged
and aged took their respective parts
with life and earnestness. Members
of the old choir sang as they were wont
to sing in days gone by. Children in
chorus, costumed recitation, duet. and
song, performed to the delight of the
listeners. Piano selections, speeches,
step dancing, dulcimer music, reading
of prepared poems and papers cheered
because of their individuality, zeal,
pleasantness and literary taste. Ever
increasing talent was noticeable as one
selection led to it's successor.
Fortunate are the heads of families
that they live in this land where the
blessings of heaven have favored them
with food in plenty. The writer wishes
to congratulate the committee for their
efforts in preparing such feast and
for serving it in a way that ever APP
peals to the appetite. Grateful are
the decendents that they have been
placed in position to enjoy the
fruits of the labors of those worthy
ones who struggled with the elements
to bring about such result.
Among the guests were many of the
best citizens of our state. From their
wrinkled faces and wide brows beamed
a gratitude expressive Of those who
think and feel. They were made well
come and their apparent happiness
added to the pleasure of all. One of
the most welcome of the relatives was
R. w. Greer, who recently returned
from Europe, where he performed a
splendid mission. From him the
present condition of the European
branch of the family was learned.
There were present during the day
1872 relatives. Thirty-five members Of
the family living in distant places we're
unable to be present. Some of the
old friends could not be present because
of the weather. A fine repre- senoation
came from American Fork. sa
At nine p. m. young and old joined
in the dance and remained until the
last cadence from the orchestra sounded
an adieu for another year. s''.e'
