Recommended by a Tennessee
Grocer for Troubles Re
sulting from Torpid
Liver.
East Nashville, Tenn. The effic
iency of Thedford's Black-Draught, th
genuine, herb, liver medicine, li
Touched for by Mr. W. N. Parsons, a
grocer of this city. "It Is without
doubt the best liver medicine and I
don't believe I could get along without
It I take It for sour stomach, head
ache, bad liver, Indigestion, and all
other troubles that are the result of
a torpid liver.
"I have known and used it for years,
land can and do highly recommend it
to every one. I won't go to bed with
out it in the house. It will do all it
claims to do. I can't say enough for
It"
Many other men and women through
out the country have found Black
Draught just as Mr Parsons describes
valuable in regulating the liver to
Its normal functions, and in cleansing
the bowels of impurities.
Thedford's Black-Draught liver medl
idae Is the original and only genuine.
Accept no Imitations or substitutes.

Suppose that tomorrow you were going to buy a phonograph.
How would you go about it ?
You probably have a preference, gained through reading advertisements'
and hearing the instruments of friends. But Its a pretty vague preference,
isn't it? No foundation in real fact.
Would you phone an order for that phonograph? No, you'd probably
decide you ought to hear several other phonographs first. But as you'd hear
demonstration after demonstration, you'd experience ever-growing doubt
and confusion.
Then finally you'd bethink yourself of our Edison Turn-Table Comparison
and you'd wonder why you ever bothertd to match claims against claims,
when here was a way to match music against music, and decide for yourself v
which is the best phonograph.
The beautiful surety and simplicity of our Edison Turn-Table Comparison
never strikes people so forcibly as when they actually try to decide on a
phonograph. It is the only scientific comparison in town, the only way in
which you can hear the four leading phonographs play in the same room,
from the same position, using recordings by the same artist.
Why not hear it today? No obligation! A free service given in the spirit
of service. Just ask for the Edison Turn-Table Comparison (given only on
request). w

Matinee Music Club.
The Matinee Music Club met Sat
urday afternoon at the home of Miss
Pauline Barney with a delighttu.
program and a lesson toptc in keep
ing with the season of caroling birds
and rustling leaves: "Mus'c of Na
ture and the Year," led b? Miss 1m
ogene Jones.
Nature's cleverest musical genius
is the song bird, for interwoven
among the mass of tones ara strands
of as pure melody as ever grace'i the
compositions of man. Indee 1 Long
fellow expressed the superiority of
bird harmonies over man-made mel
odies when he wrote:
"Do you ne'er think what wondrous
beings these?
Do you ne'er think who made them,
and who taught
The dialect they speak, where
melodies
Alone are the interpreters of
thought?
Whose household words are songs in
many keys,
Sweeter than instrument of man e'er
caught!"
Trees filled with feathered choirs,
the vibrant notes of wandering May
breezes, and the rythmical murmur
of bubbling brooks, all blend into
one. sublime symphony, emphasizing
that springtime chants the richest
harmonies of the year. Such a music
filled universe stands ready to reward
the listening ear, nor has mankind
failed to enjoy and appropriate the'
tones of nature. Mendelssohn's lilt
ing "Spring Song," MacDowell's deli
cately tinted tone poem, "The Robin
Sing3 in the Apple Tree," and GriegX
majestic "To Spring" are but three
noble tribute among countless voic-
lngs of praise from the music masters
of humanity.
