DE SOTO NOTES.

The DeSoto spring has proved to be an ideal meeting place for the la dies of Hot Springs, who, until now, have had no resting place during shopping hours, and no place where it was central enough to appoint an hour to meet friends who live in the outer end of the city from their own homes, or friends from away. who are stopping at the various hotels. The DeSoto spring is central and there fore convenient. it is pleasing and clean, with many comforts, and be- sides plenty of refreshing spring wa ter, there is music for entertainment and diversion.
 Among the many pleasant visitors at the spring house were the follow ing from Denver: Miss Adela Nc Clure, Miss Eliza L. McGrew, Mrs. F. R. Houghton, Miss Laura Klein. Mrs. J, B. Edwards. They are en route to St. Louis to attend the na- tional convention of public school principals, and expressed themselves as highly pleased with the DeSoto and Hot Springs in general
 Eddie von Schiek and Bernie Ad- Ter of Chicago, entertained visitors at she DeSoto.
 MT. and Mrs. Victor Johnson of Minneapolis, Minn., left for home yes terday afternoon, after a pleasant stay of five weeks in the Valley of Vapors, and made last visit to De- Soto just before leaving.

A HEALTHY, HAPPY OLD AGE

May be promoted by those who gently cleanse the system, now and then, when in need of a laxative remedy, by taking the ever refresh ing, wholesome and truly beneficial Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna, which is the only family laxative generally approved by the most eminent physicians, because it acts in a natural, strengthening way, and warns and tones up the in- ternal organs without weakening them.
 It is equally beneficial for the very young and the middle aged, as it is always efficient and free from all harmful ingredients. To get it's beneficial effects always buy the genuine, bearing the name of the ecompany-California Fig Syrup Cor plainly printed on the front of every package.

ConvenIences Of New York Hotels
Show Great Consideration Given
to Comfort Of Ladies'.

New York hotels may charge high
prices for their restaurant and dining
room service, but they are more than
generous in some of the conveniences
they furnish their women guests.
Dressing rooms are equipped with the
finest of soaps, the most delicate OF
toilet powders, ice water, abundance
Of hand towels Of choice linen. hair
pins, pins and cold cream, all for the
free use Of the fair. There are hand
mirrors and whisk brooms galore and
even hair brushes and combs, II one

Strange wishes are sometimes ex.

friends asked him whether there was
one last wish he would like to have
gratified before he died?" There
