Ha'dsORs 1912 Calendars.

OF the $20.OOO.eO0 spent annually
for calendars. Williamsburg seems
to have paid It's share. and most CT
those we have seen have been
creditable. The one thing that |
should be borne in mind by the
firm giving calendars IS that a COM
mon one is worse than no calendar
at all. In other words. il were
infinitely better to get out no calen-
dsr al all than a cheap. inexpensive
one. as the object sought to be eh-
tanned is lost. for a bad impression is
made with a poor calendar.
Recognising this fact. the Peninsula
/ Bank presents again this year two
very handsome specimens of the
calendar art. Casey & Sons. the
grocers. and DR.. Stone. the druggist
also presented their customers with
I handsome art calendars that Wi

This is the Case With Many Williams
burg People.
Too many Williamsburg citizens are
handicapped with bad back. The un-
ceasing pain causes constant misery,
making work burden and STOPPING or
lifting an impossibility. The back aches
at night, preventing refreshing rest
and in the morning is stiff and lame.
Plasters and liniments may give relief,
but cannot reach the cause. To ehmi
nate the pains and aches you must ours
the kidneys.

w. G. n. U. Meeting-

The Woman's Christian Temper
ance Union met Tuesday, Jan. 80,
at the home of Mrs. S. ID. Atwood.
The attractive calendars for the year
were out, and a number were dis
tributed at the meeting. One had
been sent to Mrs. L. M. Stevens, ma
tional president, and had received
highest commentator from her. The
topic of the meeting was The Cam
paign in Maine. After leading the
devotional service, Mrs. H. N. Tur-
ner read large part of the address
delivered by Mrs. Lillian M. N.
Stevens before the 38th annual con-
vention of the w. G. T. u, held in
Milwaukee. This was thrilling ac-
count of the brave and persistent
efforts of the w. G. T. U. and other
organizations in Names recent
struggle to retain her prohibition
amendment. Much credit was given
for the magnificent aid of the
state newspapers and the associated
press. Mrs. Turner also spoke of
an incident related to her by Mrs.
Edith Smith Davis, worlds superin-
tendent of scientific temperance in
struction. Mrs. Davis described the
deep sorrow manifested at the
Hague Congress when news came
that the cause was lost in Maine,
and the wild demonstrations of Joy
when at last victory was assured.
A pleasant social hour was enjoy
ed after the meeting.
