The Birmingham age-herald., 1913-06-22

With the thermometer marking, at last,
weather that is Enthusiastically hot, the
social barometer has taken its final up
ward turn and while to be perfectly
truthful, there has not been any very ex-
citing entertaining going, and will not
be, several fashionable parties will occur
this week, having been occasioned by the
approach of several interesting weddings
The marriage of Miss Helen Thompson
and Mr.. Hettrick will be celebrated at
home next Wednesday evening, but ow-
ing to the social prominence of the bride
and her father this event will necessa-
rily be preceded by number of smart
affairs of pre-nuptial tenor. DIR. Lull and
Miss Eaves are to be married at the
church of St. Mary's-on- the ighlands,
1n the presence of a large eonclave Of
friends, and their marriage, too, is to be
preceded by several attractive affairs.
The Smith-Truss wedding next day will
be of interest to a number of friends.
With these over and the several informal
teas for visitors, the feeling of gayety in
the air threatens to disappear and only
the younger college element to hold sway.
Already the rush to the country for
over Sunday has started in earnest, and
people are enjoying motor trips of a few
days all through the week. Country
homes have been opened and in another
week or two the exodus to the shore and
mountains will be under way. AS usual
the vacation plans of Birmingham people
are widely varied. With a number of
summer stay-at-homes, the custom of a
late visit to New York and Atlantic City
has become fixed. A trip of this sort the
latter part of August, following the free
dom of home during the more tiresome
period of summer is regarded as a pleas
ant relaxation before beginning the win
ter season. Another eastern trip in the
late winter proves a pleasant intermis-
sion; but in summer, home is voted the
best place of all.
SUMNER SUFFRAGE WORK
Mrs. Henry Fowlkes will take her chill
dren to Lake Chautauqua next week for
a lengthy stay, and it is also Mrs. Solon
Jacobs plan to go to Chautauqua for a
short time again this summer. How
ever, she plans to give most of her time
to campaign work for equal suffrage in
the state. She hopes to leave in a few
days in her car to visit a number of near
by towns for the purpose of organization,

Dinner about the same.
There is something positively
wrong, Of course, but no disease that
can be named. Just out Of sorts.
That is all.
It is in this kind Of condition
chat Peruna acts very beneficially.
After using Peruna, interest in food
Is revived. Beginning with tea
spoonful of Peruna before each meal
win generally quickly improve the
appetite and help the digestion.
Thousands of people can TESTIFY to
this. Liberated from a slavery that Is
almost unbearable. The slavery OF
having no interest In life. All used
up. Yet one does not know exactly
why. Take Peruna before each meal.
Skies will get blue again. Fields will
look green once more and life will
be pleasant You will feel that you
are good for something and the world
is a good place to live in. Peruna
will do It. Not as an artificial slim
ulant. Simply tonic that stimulates
appetite in a natural way.
Those who object to liquid n1edi-
cines can now obtain Peruna Tablets.

Tablet After 1t.

One of the greatest horrors to dys-
pepsia sufferers is the fear of food
consequences. They know from past
experiences that meats, vegetables
and fluids will not agree with them.
The stomach tells them so and thus
after awhile they actually learn 10
abhor such dishes.
But often in their dreams they ex.
perience the joys of eating a hearty
soup-to-nuts meal of the good old
fashioned kind. When they awake the
old fear is still with them.
