Mr.. Cook was enroute, having sailed

BACHELOR BOYS ENTERTAIN.

Kansas Citys Bachelor Boys Club
has always occupied a place near the
head of the list of Kansas City's popu-
lar social clubs and on last Friday
night, February Z, they proved their
right to the same, the occasion being
their tenth semi-annual party in Lyric
hall. To say that this was the swell.
est affair of its kind seen in Kansas
City for some time is putting it mild
ly. Invitations were sent to 300 guests
and how unanimously they were ac-
cepted was evidenced by the fact that
when the grand march was announced
the spacious hall was practically filled.
At 10 o'clock the grand march,
headed by the Bachelors themselves
and their ladies, and from then until
, a. m. beautiful ladies gorgeously
arrayed in evening gown were guided
about the polished floor by gallant
men, in full dress attire, in a series
of dreamy waltzes, jazzing one-steps
and syncopating schottisches, etc, to
the harmonizing melodies of Roland
Bruce's full orchestra.
The entire hall was very tastily dec
GRATED, from the canopy outside the
entrance to the dressing rooms, the
Bachelors Club color, deep purple, be-
ing used throughout, while profusion
of palms, ferns and beautiful flowers
added an Oriental touch. The Bachel-
ors also wore their colors.
After the dance the Bachelors and
their ladies' motored to the Cafe De
Luxe and there banqueted till the wee
sma' hours. The cafe and tables were
also beautifully decorated and the
scene there was a fitting climax to a
night spent in merrymaking. and when
only few short hours before the gray
dawn of the morning, the party again
entered taXis and motored to their re-
spective homes, everyone was search
ing for words to describe the affair.
Taken all in all, the event was an
enormous success and will be long re-
| membered by the fortunate guests
who attended. The high class which
was in evidence everywhere, the ex-
cellent service, the decorations, and
the excellent management of the en-
tire affair bespeaks volumes for the
Bachelors themselves and gave true
evidence of the unstinting spirit with
which this club entertains. The fol-
lowing popular young men comprise
the club:
Officers-Shannon Drumm, presi-
dent; James Smith, treasurer; James
Williams, secretary.

92D CASUALTIES.

The total casualties of the Ninety
second, colored, division has been es'
timated at 1,47S. Among the killed
we're six officers. One officer and 81
enlisted men died from wounds re-
ceived in action; 40 enlisted men died
from diseases; 2S enlisted men are
listed as missing; 16 Officers and
SAB enlisted men we're wounded 80
officers and Gel enlisted men were
gassed. The divisions number OF
gassed is unusually large. A reason
is, perhaps that the colored soldiers
in the front line trenches of this di-
vision were unusually daring in max
ing raids into the enemy's territory.

TRY MACNESIA FOR
STOMACH TROUBLE
Il Neutralizes Stomach Acid
lily, Prevents Food Fermen-
tatiOn, Sour, Classy StoIn-
ach And Acid In
: digestion.


Doubtless if you are sufferer from
indigestion, you have already tried
peFsin, bismuth, soda, charcoal, drugs
and various digestive aids and you
know these things will not cure your
trouble-in some cases do not even give
relief.
But before giving up hope and decid-
ing you are chronic dyspeptic lust
try the effect of little bisurated mag
nesia-not the ordinary commercial
carbonate, citrate, oxide or milk, but
the pure bisurated magnesia which you
can obtain from practically any drug
Gist in either powdered or tablet form
Take teaspoonful of the powder or
two compressed tablets with little wa
ter after your next meal, and see what
a difference this makes. II will Instant
ly neutralize the dangerous, harmful
acid in the stomach which now causes
your food to ferment and sour, making
gas, wind, flatulcnee, heartburn and
the bloated or heavy, lumpy feeling
that seems to follow most everything
you eat.
! You will find that provided you take
a little bisurated magnesia immediate
ly after a meal, you eat almost any
thing and enjoy it without any dan
ger of pain or discomfort to follow
and moreover, the continued use Of the
bisurated magnesia cannot injure the
stomach in any way so long as there
are any symptoms of acid indigestion.
