IN SOCIETY
By Mary Gwynn Whiteman Telephone l42

The Alexander home was beautiful
ly and elaborately decorated with a
graceful festooning of vines laid with
punches of scarlet berries and hand
some yellow chrysanthemums.
Twining around the chandeliers,
spanning the windows and doorways
a delicate tracery of vines with shin
ing green leaves and scarlet berries
made most dainty decorative effect
and was the frequent topic of compli-
mentary comment on the part of the
guests.
Mrs. w. 1. Cruce extended the well
come salutation.
Mrs. Max Westheimer directed to
the receiving line in which stood
Mesdames NJ. u. Alexander, Roy Alex
ander, McLane Rogers, c. r. Gray
p. p. Kearney and H. b. McCullom'
Mrs. N. C. Woods introduced the
guests to the receiving line and Mrs.
7. X. Kearney and Mrs. C. B. Hanks
directed to the punch bowl.
The punch bowl stood beneath a
bower of vines and was most grace
fully presided over by Misses Lillian
McNeese and Sadie Hall.
Mrs. Arthur Adams directed to the
dining room. In the dining room
candles in silver candleabra gave q
soft illumination.
The table was spread with a rich
cloth of American drawn work with
a large vase of yellow chrysanthe
NUNS for centerpiece.
Dainty refreshments were served
by Misses Mable Hall, Gertrude Alex
nder and Doris Westheimer,
Mrs. p. II. Woods directed the
guests register which was in charge
of Mrs. Harold Wallace.
Guests droped their cards in dain'
ty basket tied with white tulle, which
was later presented to the honoree.
A strnged orchestra furnished mu'

callers fingered most gratefully in
the pleasant hospitality of the home

Bowels Get Weak
AS Age Advances
The First Necessity is to Keep the
Bowels Gently Open With
Mild Laxative tonic.

Healthy old age is so absolutely
dependent upon the condition Of the
bowels that great care should be
taken to see that they act regularly.
The fact is that as age advances
the stomach muscles become weak
and inactive and the liver does not
store up the juices that are neces-
sary to prompt digestion.
Some help can be obtained by
eating easily ligested foods and by
plenty OF exercise but this latter is
irksome to most elderly people.
ore thing is certain, that state
of constipation should always oe
avoided as it is dangerous to life
and health. The best plan is to
take mild laxative as often as is
deemed necessary, But with equal
certainty is is suggested that ca
thartics, purgatives, physics, salts
and pills be avoided, as they do but
temporary good and are so harsh
as to he shock to a delicate sys-
tenn.
much better plan, and one that
thousands of elderly people are fol-
lowing, is to take a gentle laxative
tonic Ike Or. Caldwell's Syrup Pep
sin, which acts as nearly like nature
as is possible In fact the tenden-
cy Of this remedy is to strengthen
the stomach and bowel muscles and
so train them TO act naturally again,
when medicines Of all kinds can
usually be dispensed with. This is
the opinion of many people OF diff
ferent ages, among them Mr.. Will

She's a plain "uncultured" woman,
She cannot philosophize,
Hengle, Schopenhauser, Darwin,
Have no value in her eyes.
For she doesn't know about 'em,
And, besides, she's orthodox,
So, she plods along without 'em,
But she darns her husbands socks
She is not bit capriclous,
Nor on female suffrage bent,
And her cooking is delicious,
And her husband is content.
She is wholesome, happy human,
Unbeguiling, unbeguiled;
Just a plain "uncultured' woman,
But she has little child.

The Morgan interests" are not con-
fined to J. P Morgan q Co. by any
means. The Morgan interests compre-
bend life insurance companies. banks
and trust companies. railroads and
manufacturing enterprises. II the par
ent house increased Its regular Repub
ucan contribution in 1904 because OF
its especial interest" we may easily
imagine that the policy was widely
Initiated by afnliated corporations and
individuals. Perhaps in this almost up-
sxampled favor by the Morgan inter
ests we shall find an explanation OF
the Roosevelt administration hostility
TO the Standard OH interests, which
have not always agreed with J.

Of the public"
II may be that the senate COMMITTEES

Mrs. w. T. Holt and Mrs. T. E. Bar ham entertained jointly yesterday aft eroon in Norwood, their guests includ- ing a company of their married friends. This hospitality followed very grace fully upon a charmingly planned event of the previous evening which was linn tied to the young people in their i'm mediate circle of friends and like ths first was marked by the grace and courtesy which are natural to each of the hostesses.
 Autumn leaves and trifles appropri- ate to the Halloween season were dis tributed about the rooms. Favors were yellow paper baskets filled with hints. but from unseen sources depended bats and owls and black cats. the threads on which they were caught defying de- lection. A witch acted as master of ceremonies to the ''Order of owls and Rats"-the guests--William Moughon.

SUNDAY MORNING IN
 THE BOIS DE BOULOGNE

One who is loitering in Paris rather late for a southern American, writes of the appearance of Bois at this sea- son. She paints a varied picture of the Avenues des Accacias, which is said to be a joy to the humorist, the lover of beauty and the admirer of smart and pretty clothes. "All sorts of people, she says, walk, ride and drive there between II and 12:30. Women in neat habits and workman like eoiffures pass by on splendid horses which they set with the ease of the good horseWoman; funny little ladies in breeches and very long coats, sit astride Arab like ponies with flowing tails and names, which seem to go so well with their riders fantastic head dresses ; pathetcally wrongly turned -out women with very gold hair, cling to the pom mels of their saddles or hang on to the mouths of their horse by reins and enc and all trot, walk or canter up and down the riders alley observed by all the people who sit on pale green iron chairs among the trees to see and ne seen by those who walk, ride and drive past them
 ''The men who ride are just as anus ing as the women and quite as queer, And what of those who walk? They, too, are interesting and amusing, for they represent every type under the sun. They show everything that is new in fashion and show it well.'

too often. In any case, they will not make more blunders than men. I ad- n-ire Englishwomen for their pluck m the face of much opposition and l wish them 'bonne cnance. "
 At the conference Mrs. Elmer Black Of the New York Peace Society spoke Of the political status of the women of the United States. She said T think We shall have political suffrage for women in the United States far sooner than in England, the wave, curiously enough, flowing from the western states toward the east. We have obtained the political administration vote in sev- cral western towns and thereby poli- tics have become cleaner
 m Mrs. Black stated that she did not approve of the. militant methods em- ployed in England to obtain the vote, because she is of the opinion that wom- en cannot obtain anything by force. The American woman, as everybody knows, is able to obtain a great deal from men by other means and methods.

The presence and the influence of women, many of whom were official delegates to the nineteenth peace con- gress this month in Geneva, has been the subject of many comments, espe- cially among the men who attended as delegates. England and America were particularly well represented though women of all nationalities attended the sittings. Here is evidence of present. day feminine alertness in matters at- fecting the rogress and welfare or the world. Among the number at the con gress were the wise women of each tion--broadminded, cultured women able to cope with any situation and their views as stated to the people who wrote about the proceedings were worthy of attention.
 Mme. Severine of Paris. a well known rnblicist, orator and ''pacifist," was one of the brilliant women at the congress, and spoke at most of the meetings. She is a great admirer of the English woman and said during the conference; 'T'hey are 40 years ahead of French women in the feminist movement, ow- ing to their practical character ana temperament, which the women of the Latin races lack. But we are progress ing surely, if slowly,
 "From the economic point of view women ought to be the equal of men in every way We had to fight 10 years before we saw the law passed which permits women working in factories to obtain their salaries themselves. From the political poit of view I am con vinced women will have the same rights as men in the near future. l am certain that they will bring Into pol 'ttics those virtues which men forget
