the
dark was a favor
ite with duelists.
Two men were
locked in a dark
room and crawled
stealthily from
corner to corner,
until some false
step made one of
them the target ]
for bullet or
blarle.
Life is a duel
in the dark with
«fieras»- One false step, one mistake,
and the attack comes swift and sudden.
The mistake which commonly opens the
•way for an attack by disease is neglect I
of the symptoms of stomach trouble.
When eating is followed by undue full
ness, belchings, sour or bitter risings,
etc., disease is attacking the stomach.
The best way to frustrate such an at
tack is to use I3r. Pierce's Golden Med
k*l I hscovenr. It cures diseases of the
stomach and other organs of digestion
and nutrition, and makes the body
strong and healthy.

SPRING AILMENTS.
There Is an aching and tired feel
the liver, bowels and kidneys
become sluggish and inactive, the
digestion Impaired, with little or no
appetite, no ambition for anything,
and a feeling that the whole body
and mind needs toning up. The
trounle is, that during winter, there
has been an accumulation of waste
matter in the system. Herbine will
remove it, secure to the secretions
a right exit, and its tonic effect,
fully restore wasted tissues and
give strength In place of weakness.

TWENTIETH CEITUBY CUIB
Chiraiiitly Entertained by Mr·.
W. t, Suive.
! Two weeks, and again fell the day
for the Twentieth Century Club to
meet with Mr*. W. E. Shire, M the
pleasant and charming hostess, at
the roiy and hospitable home of Mrs.
C. C. Crocker on West Jefferson
street. λ .
Roll call was answered to with
quotations from the Constitution of
Texas. Then came old business,
j Next year's study was deferred for
'final consideration until the next
I meeting, when the course will be
decided upon.
The committee, Mrs. hears as
president, Mrs. Shlve and Mrs. Mc
Knight, gave its report for the clos
ing season. It was decided to have
no publi3 entertainment or open
meeting this year, hut to take the
money and procure for next year's
work a Year Book for the club.
The only social session will he a
Flinch partv on the afternoon >>f
June 4, at which only club members
will be present. Mrs. Kepllnger and
Miss Ifc-ss were appointed a com
mittee t« make arrangements for
the social session. Several fines
w*ere collected.
λ iter the other business being
finished the I-sson then proceeded,
from Cleveland's second adminis
tration up to the present time. The
club's work for the year V.KK-TM has
been very interesting and profitable.
The variety of contests, from,
time to time have bneti very enter-j
taininK and the club has very much
enjoyed them.
The hostess had prepared for the
contest on last Thursdey afternoon j
a nussle- seven pieces of pasteboard ,
for each guest, out «? which she;
was to build a house. The model
was continually monopolized, the
merry minutes sj>ed by with "pant
ing time," and still no correct solu
tion had been reached. Not the en
tirely correct, hut the nearest cor
rect house to the model, was not, a*
one of the member· said,
house that Jack built," but "the
house that Mrs. t'rlddle built, and
to her fell tt.e priie-a handsome
burnt wood plw<iue.
M re. Crocker hud in itore a molt

j Ici ni# refreshment·, eoneletintf
caramel cream and nahisco wafers,
thus carrying out the color scheme

Maréchal Niel roses.
The club adjourned to meet on
Wednesday, May '20, with Mrs. WU
«on. The change In the day of the
w„ek was made-because of the Press
Association, which begin, on Thurs
day. May -1st. Roll call is to be
responded to with some quotation
or view, from ettheir McKiuley or
Roosevelt, whose administrations
will form the lesson,
F very member is urgently re
queued to present at this meet
ing, as it is the time for the elec
tion o? officers, and other important
business. At this time may also
come up the question of whether or
not the club shall Join the state
Federation and the benefit we should
derive, as a club, from the Kedera
tlon. Every member Is earnestly
requested to give this subject her
serious consideration
