which they gave, for it was truly
perfect success and an enjoyable time
was derived by every attendant. From
the time the guests entered the Locke.
parlors. a jovial spirit prevailed. ard
the Infection remained throughout the
evening. The feeling of formality,
which usually is manifest at such
gathering must have been safely
guarded out by the two hostess for it

upon the festive scene.
Misses Ruth Binford, Grace Lock

| the guests, which were about one
| hundred and eighty in all, formed
and marched up to the first balcony,
and made several circuits, while Miss

| nOuncement was made then that any
one who cared to dance should march
to the dining rooms, while the others
were to remain in the parlors.

the new game, Zig-saw. The object
lures, and the guests took up the
tedious task with zest.
Mesdames Carter and Hedger pre-
sided over the frappe bowl, which
was arranged on a prettily decorated
table, with ferns and carnations.
About eleven, plates We're served,
bearing slab of delicious pink and
white cream, two varieties of cake
and corrections. Much amusement
was afforded by the fact that the de-

The Misses Ciough entertained the
largest company, so far as is known,

divldual parties, and the evening
passed without one inharmnnious

the capabilities of the two lady host

particular. The sightiiness Of The

acribed it to convalescents and other
weak patients, that the food is a won
derfnl builder and restc-er of nerve
and brain tissue, as we'll as muscle. II

strength and weight very rapidly.
II was in such a low state that ]
had to give up my work entirely, and
went to the mountains Of this state,
but two months there did not improve
me; in fact was not quite as well az
when / left home.
My food did not sustain me and
II became plain that must change.
Then began to use Grape-Nuts. food
and in two weeks / could walk a mile
without fatigue, and in five weeks
