Womanless Wedding
Made Big Hit Here.
The “Womanless Wedding”
which was staged here by local
talent Monday night, was very
successful.
The people had been looking
forward with great deal of inter
est in seeing many of our promi
nent business men “dressed
up” “dolled up” and “floced
up” representing all the fe
male characters in a highly feat
ured church wedding, carry
ing out the formal and elab
orate ring ceremonies. Mr. M
R. Cameron was the elegantly
gowned bride, Mr. W. W.Steed
the handsome groom. Dr. H. J.
Porter performed the ceremony,
with becoming ease and dignity.
Col. G. W. Bivins, as Melba
favored the audience with one of
his favorite solos and received
great applause, next to the bride
he was perhaps the most hand
somely gowned of those partici
pating. Col. H. P. Wallace and
Prof A. S. Wallace were mother
and farther of the bride respec
tively.
The large audience was almost
convulsed with laughter from the
time the first attendant entered
until the happy young couple left
the auditorium united in the holy
bonds of “pad lock” to enter into
toils of life’s fitful sea as “one
and one.”
The play was coached by Miss
Marian West ably assisted by Mrs
G. C. Smith, Mrs. J. W. Edwards
and Mrs. J. H. West and was for
the purpose of raising funds with
which to carry on the work of the
local chapter Red Cross. The
door receipts amounted to $116.

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Cured
by local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way to cure catarrhal deafness,
and that is by a constitutional remedy.
Catarrhal Deafness is caused by an In
flamed condition of the mucous lining of
the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is
inflamed you have a rumbling sound or im
perfect hearing, and when it is entirely
closed. Deafness is the result. Unless the
inflammation can be reduced and this iuDe
restored to its normal condition, hearing
will be destroyed forever. Many cases of
deafness are caused by catarrh, which is
an inflamed condition of the mucous sur
faces. Hall’s Catarrh Medicine acts thru
the blood on the mucous surfaces of the
system.
We will give One Hundred Dollars far
any case of Catarrhal Deafness that cannot
be cured by Hall’s Catarrh Medicine. Cir
culars free. All Druggists. 75c.

YOUR daughter will never come to

bank. If you were to investigate the
families who have accomplished daughters, you would
find that in practically every instance a bank account-is
started for their education when they were children.
You envy such people, so will your children when they
grow up unless they have the same advantages. So think
how much a bank account will mean to them and start
one today.
