eHene Comes He Bride

Everybody wishes her well! Happy and radiant she starts out on life's adven- ture. She should have health to begin with. Good looks in woman do not de pend upon age, but upon health. You never see good-looking woman who is weak, rundown, irritable, out of sorts, fidgety and nervous. Headaches, back aches, dragging down pains, irregulari- ties and troubles of that sort are all de stroyers of beauty. Men do not admire sickness.
 It is within the reach of every woman to be we'll, healthy and strong if she will take Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. It is the safest woman's tonic because it is made entirely of roots and herbs, without alcohol. (Ingredients on label.) It is over 50 years old, and it's age testifies to it's goodness. A medicine that has made sick women we'll for half a century IS surely good to take. Women from every part of Alabama testify to its merits

Consider the lmpOr tance of Your Feet

The arch bones of your foot arc not rigid. Your foot arch is not like a piece of masonry. The bones form four flexible arches in each foot (the inner and outer longitu- dinal and the transverse arches of the instep; and the anterior meta tarsal arch of the ball of tho foot ) These bones maintain their erched formation only because of the liga- ments, tendons and muscular struc- ture which surround them and hold them. Thus, your arches are flex- ible and provide the resilienee that you enjoy unconsciously.
 Why not keep the foot resilient, springy and efficient? Why not keep the muscles in good health so that they will have strength to up- hold the arch structure? Why not avoid "weak foot" ''fallen arches7"

If you could live your life in your stockinged feet, you would expe- rience perfect circulation and strengthening exercise of the arch muscles. The foot, being unre- strained, would get it's natural flex- ible action as you walked. That would keep it well.
 Almost the same ideal condition is obtained by wearing Cantilever Shoes, which are flexible and shaped naturally, giving freedom to the foot and more comfort than can be found in the majority of shoes. Try Cantilevers. Keep your feet in condition. Life is drag if your feet go back on you.
 Cantilever prices are right; qual- ity is excellent.

.KlWANIANS HEAR
GEN. ". A. HARRIS
District Governor Is Principal
Speaker And Guest of Honor
AT Anniversary Dinner

The seventh anniversary of XII
wants was celebrated by the Americus
Kiwanis club with ladies night af-
fair at the Windsor last night, at
wlncn General Walter A. Harris, Q :
Macon, district governor, was the
guest Of honor and principal speak
er. The affair was attended by about
100 members and guests, and was a
lively occasion.
General Harris spoke in a general
vein about Kiwanis and its future.
He called attention to the slogan of
the organization for the present year,
"Now for Better Business" stating
that not only did this constitute a
highly practical program for the near
ly 10000 members Of Kiwanis for
this year, as every business and pro-
fessional man recognized, but there
was still a broader meaning to the
word "better," and that Kiwanis was
giving it this broader meaning. He
said that the meaning Of Kiwanis
really had never been defined, and
that it probably never would be de.
fined, since it means to every mem
Der just what he personally is putting
into it and getting out of it.
A feature Of the program was the
presentation to Eugene A. Bailey,
who is soon to leave the ranks of
the bachelor members, Of handsome
chest of silverware.
A five minute talk on the history
of the growth of Kiwanis was made
by J. Lewis Ellis, past president OF
the local club, and two minute talks
on what KiwarI has meant to then
were made bl Fred Smith, w. T.
Lane, and w. NJ Jones. A cracker
eating contest, won by r. L. Edwards
and water drinking race, won by W. M
Humber, were di9e1ting features. The
entertainers we're Miss Mary Merritt
who read, and the male quartet, com.
posed of Messrs. Clark, Davenport
Cargill and Beavers, who sang a mum
fber Of Songs.
