Mr.. John Hankins,
Jasper, Tenn.
Dear Sir:
We wish to write you and express our
appreciation of the benefit derivedfrom
the medicine we bought from you. Our
daughter, May, girl of IS years of
age, had suffered greatly with female
trouble. For months she had no use of
her mind at all. She was perfectly
helpless, some one had to be constant
~ with her, We had several doctors
to wait on her, but none of them SEEM
ed to do her any good.
We bought from you a bottle of
watkins Female Remedy and used
it. Then we bought the second bottle.
May was much improved by this time.
And now we are on the fourth bottle
and she is all right. Her mind is good
and her physical condition is spendid.
In fact the medicine has completely
cured her from all appearances.
We want to highly recommend Wat
kins' Female Remedy and advise all
women suffering with this trouble to
try it. With best wishes,
Very truly,
BEN HARRIS.

Harris family and that the above is

SIX CONFIRMAN1S
 AT THE TEMPLE
BEATTIFUL AND IMPRESSIVE SERVICE CONDUCTED YES.
 TERDAY.
Floral Offering and Final Blessing of the Rabbi Most Impressive
 Many Attend Services.

The annual confirmation services of Congrsg gations Anshe Emeth, which took place at .!he Temple yesterday morning, was one of the most beaucis full and impressive ever witnessed in that edifice. The Temple was beauti- full decorated with cut flowers and ferns and white tulle streamers and the many soft lights added their bril- liance to the scene. A large assem- blpge, including many Gentiles, wit messed the service and were greatly impressed with the solmnfty of the occasion.
 Four young ladies, Misses Lucille Ei,Ibott, Helene E'lsenkramer, Fannie Marx and Annie Lucille Rosenberg, and two young men. Arden Smith and Charles Reinberger, took upon them- selves the obligations of the Jewish faith. It was the first service of it's kind since 1909, owing to the raising of the age limit. Y.
 Rabbi Ephraim Frisch, in his usual attractive and solemn manner, con- ducted the service and every feature was carried out in delightful style and with interesting detail. Extra music had ben arranged for the oc- casianr the program including solos by Misses Lucy Hearn Broadstreet and Ethel Schloss violin scio by Prof. Gustav Mullsr and the regular music by the Sabbath School and the choir, including Misses Broadstreet and 'schloss and Thad Traweek.
 The confirmants impressed their hearers with theia reSpective sub- jc.s, which centered around uni- fed theme, which Dr. Frisch took for his central thoug'ht, "The Renewal of the covnant of Sinai.' The con. firmants in symbolic manner went over the story of the acceptance of the Law by their ancestors and the subsequent. chapters in Jwish hise- tery. Th floral offring by the con- firmaEts and the final blessing of the Rabbi and their parents was beauti- fully done.
 The floral offering wa: made i'll the modern way of substituting the first fruits of the harvest as gift to the Ancient Temple in the Holy City, by t'Ae firss fruits of the adolescence to God, symbolized by flowers. Rings Of waise sweet peas were used to i1- dicase the perfection of the vows. The rings were placed on the Scroll of the Law, the sign of Israeps mission, and were dedicated to six sources of in-

sp.raion in Jewish religious life. The confirmants spoke clearly and earnestly and acquitted themselves admirably not only in the rendition of their respective subjects, but in reading the Ten Commandments from the Tcnah.
 The officers of the Congregation and six little flower girls and boys, preceded the confirmants down the aisle to sweet music, delightfully."- rendered by the organist, Mrs. F. '. Renfrcw.
