MAY DAY PARTY.


 The pupils in Miss Wells school held their annual May Day party on Wednesday aftnrEt n, May 2S. The day was fair and beautiful, an, ideal ore for a May festival. Fla y ia the morning the children carried their blossoms f)r th" u"ual decorations, which were tasteful and artistic. Iicr,erhes, nut leaves aud blossf ..ls bur1creG the cei'ino panel of ferns and wisteria back of the queens platform, over the mantel, and at the base of the throne were wild pink azalias and boxwood blows. In the exercise rooms were lille. 0i thr val icy, red d'uhle tulips and maiden hair ferns. At 2 o'clock the pupils assembled for their gala day, dai ailtl.y dressed in lovely White costumes. The program opened with spring song and march accompanied with f whistling, rendered in l'ud ttnes and gradually softened to represent a distant tramp into the woods for | lcwars. -,.any songs and recitations were given by groups Of children. The single songs were well received The for-g get-me-not song by Dorothy Cassedy, Robin Redbreast by Julia Wright, and the spring song by Dor ohy Ives were clearly suES. Ejr- ginia Stevens was very graceful in her recitation, Woods in March. Helen Green and Turrill Green re- cited finely. Welcome, Little Rob- in" by nIizabeth Staub was greeted with hearty applause. Miss Nib- ble's Complaint by Ethel Nichols was difficult and well delivered. The last of the entertainment was ar ranged by Miss Wells in the form of little play introducing, first, the woodpeckers, by six girls wearing red caps with large black eyes to represent the birds. They called others to help th,m build thsir nests and carried out the bird life in the game Ely, little Birdie" A charm- ing and difficult drill was executed by eight older girls. They donned white squares on which were paint ed yellow and pink lilies with green leaves and carried in theirright hand chime of bells resembling the lily of the valley. These squares were carried steadily on the heads during the movements in the left hand. The orders wer given by Julia Wright. The boys next appeared as the busy bees, with bright yellow caps and large black eyes. The queen was Marion Knowles with yellow crown and scepter She made m excellent leader and kept the bees busy gath ering pollen and honey. The lively little bee, Perry Green, caused much merriment. Six little girls as butter flies huttered in with hand painted wilgs of blue. yellow and red. These were very effective. The crowning began with the ring of the flower bells and a recitation by Virginia Remis, Bring ye crown The captain of the queens guard, l'eh- man B. Hatch and his helper Mont vile Mallett, announced their inten- tion to guard the queen at all times They wore white ana gold helmets shields and carried gold lances. The crawn was of fcr-set-me-no's, the school flower, and lily of the valley the scepter of white lilacs and mead ow pinks. Both sang their parts alone. The May-pole of red, white and blue was wcver by six girls and six boys, ending with marcn to the lawn for refreshments served by Mrs B. L. Moore. The peanut shower clcsed another successful May Day al ,,

THE CAUSE OF COLDS.
Good Advice Regarding the Proven
ton Of Coughs and Colds.

If people would only properly forti
fy and strengthen their system, about
SO per cent of coughs and colds ant
pneumonia might be avoided. These
troubles are simply the result Of
weakness, which produces q catarrhal
condition of the mucous membrane
which is an internal skin of the body
When this skin is weakened, it be
comes infected with germs which are
carried through the system by the
blood. These parasites attack and
break these delicate tissues and sci
up a soreness which produces what
Is in reality an external scrofula.>
4 The only thing that will cure coughs
and colds and prevent pneumonia Is
a medication which is absorbed and
carried by the blood SO that the dis.
eased membrane is .disinfected, clean.
ed, soothed and healed. .
We have q remedy which we hon:
estly believe invaluable and unsurpas,
sable for the d prevention and cure
of coughs, colds and catarrhal condi;
lions. It Is the prescription of IA
nous physician, who has an enviable
reputation of 30 years of cures gain
ed through the use Of the medicine
We promise to either: effect a cure
In every case or make no charge fol
the medicine. We urge everybody IA
Bismarck who has need of such q
medicine to try Rexall Mucu-Tone.
It stands to reason that we could
not AFFORD to make such statements
and give our own personal guarantee
TO this remedy five were not abso-
lutely positive that we could asubstan.
tiate our claim In; every particular,
and We. zee no reason why any one
should hesitate to accept our Offer
and try It. We have two sizes of Mu.
co-Tone. Prices Soc and a. Some
times . SOC bottle Is sufhcient for q
cure. Az . general thing the most
chronic case ID cured with an average
OF three large bottles. Remember
the medicine will cost you nothing II
you are not satisfied In every partic
ular. The Lenhart Drug Co., First
