interests of good roads, and to induce

MISS WILLIAMS PLEASES.
Minneapolis Soprano Delights Twen
tieth Century Club Audience,

peared for the first time in the city
and immediately won the favor of her
large audience. Miss Eniily Perkins, as
accompanist, .added to the pleasure of
the evening.
Miss Williams possesses a beautiful
high, clear soprano voice, and her
tones and enunciation are perfect. Her
program was well selected, of a varied
nature, including groups of English,
German and French selections, all of
which were pleasing and beautifully
presented. Among the first group of
English songs, "The Nightingale Has
a Lvre of Gold." (Whelpley), was es
pecially pleasing, while "Still wie die
Xaeiu" (Bohm). of the German songs,
and "Les Filles de Cadix." (DelibesO.
of the French, were also thoroughly
enjoyed. Miss Williams' other selec
tions were equally as pleasing and
among them were "From the Land of
the Sky-Blue Water." (Cadman), "Bot
schaft," (Brahms), "Jean" (Spross),
and "Boat Song." (Ware). Miss Wil
liams gave several pleasing encores.
The rooms were attractively decor
ated with large bouquets of daffodils
and tulips, and at the close of the
program an informal reception was
held. The refreshments were served
by Misses Delia Whinery, Josephine
Howard. Martha A. Cowie, Lola Srrib
lin, Etta Langon. Ethel Erickson, Lulu
Schultz and Maude Swingley.
Mrs. C. M. Carr, of Ocean Park, Cal.,
was the only guest from out of town.

have the edge of the other competi

Boone armory during the afternoon and
evening and the visitors were ban
queted at the Elks club rooms at 6
o'clock.
The local team was handicapped "by

This artist is winning for herself the
title of the greatest singer of songs be
fore the public today, and her reputa
tion as such is firmly established in
Europe. It is not every artist who can
draw such a crowd in Carnegie hall.

Help the Stomach
Digest Your Food
When the stomach fails to di
gest and distribute that which is
eaten, the bowels become clogged
with a mass of waste and refuse
that ferments and generates
poisons that are gradually forced
into the blood, causing distress
and often serious illness.

Most people naturally object to
the drastic cathartic and purga

A mild, gentle laxative, positive
in its effect and that will quickly
relieve constipation is Dr. Cald

druggists at fifty cents and one
dollar a bottle. It does not gripe
or cramp, but acts easily and
pleasantly and is therefore the
most satisfactory remedy for

persons. For a free trial bottle
