“A Beautiful' Entertainment ” Mrs. R. H. Smith entertained the So cial Club last Thursday afternoon at one of the most enjoyable functions of the season. Progressive euchre was played. The color scheme on the lower floor, which was artistically carrie*d out in white and pink, was in harmony with the balmy day and gave the house the fragrant odor of May time. The punch bowl surrounded by immense snow balls had decidedly a cool and refreshing effect. Cut glass candelabras shaded •with soft, rosy lights and a quantity of natural spring butterflies suspended in visibly in the air, combined with a profusion of white and pink blossoms, and the light airy toilettes of the ladies completed the charm of this spring like picture. Dainty pink fans were used as score cards. The first prize was a beautiful white parasol, the second a white embroidered hand purse, and the consolation a pink and white gauze fan. A delicious collation of ices in pink and white was prettily served in pink spun candy baskets. Mrs, Smith, who is al ways a delightful hostess, was partic ularly altractive in a fetching gown of lavendar liberty crepe. This artistic en tertainment was indeed a pretty com pliment to the club.

Dorsey, charged with the murder of Curtis Twitty, surrendered to Sheriff Crow at the jail last Friday morning at 10 o’clock. When seen at the jail a short time after he arrived he volunteered the remark that he came in just as soon as he was able. The fight which resulted in Twitty’s death took place Saturday night after 12 o’clock the week before, and the swelling in Dorsey’s face had somewhat subsided. He said that any bones that had been broken in his face were knit ting together. He said he did not know •whether his cheek bone had been broken or not. He was not asked for any state ment as to the fight. His attorneys, H. H. Dean and Thompson & Bell, have given out no statement as to whether a com mitment trial will be held or what ef fort, if any, will be made to have him released on bond. Smith’s Sure Kidney Cure.

Hurry at Meals Will Send You to Dr. George for Mi-o-na stomach Tablets. “Eat in haste and repent at leisure” is an old saying brought up to date. Hurry at breakfast means a bad start for the day, and if you hurry also at the other meals, you will soon suffer with loss of appetite, sleeplessness, nervous ness, furred tongue, specks before the eyes, headaches, back-aches, weakness and debility, indigestion, or other ills that are caused by an abused stomach. Here in Gainesville, as in thousands of other places over the country, hurry at meals increases the druggist’s business. Not a day passes that Dr. George does not sell several packages of Mi-o-na stomach tablets to those who have ruined their digestion by not taking time to eat. Os course indigestion has many other causes, but whatever the cause, the rem edy is the same, Mi-o-na. It cures any acidity there may be, increases the flow of the gastric juices, and actually gives strength and tone to the whole digestive system, so that you can soon eat any thing at any time without fear of indi gestion. Dr. George has seen so many cures made by Mi-o-na that he will sell it under an absolute guarantee that it will be successful in every case where it is used in accordance with directions, that is, one tablet before each meal, and will refund the money to anyone whom it does not help. A large box of Mi-o-na tablets costs but 50 cents if it cures; nothing if it fails. First Term in Stephens. The first term of superior court held in Stephens county convened Monday in Toccoa. A great many cases on the docket in Habersham county have been transferred to Stephens county and this made it necessary for several Gaines ville lawyers to attend this term of the court.

I II Rest His Soul. The death of Col. P. F. Lawshe of Atlanta will bring sadness to many of his old friends in Jackson county. He was one of the leading figures in the congressional races of Judge Emory Speer, way back in the early eighties, being editor and proprietor of the Gainesville Southron at that time. There have been few stronger and more forceful writers in the state, and he was always as true as steel to his friends, tie had many noble traits and was fear less as a lion. We trust that his soul is now resting in a purer and brighter at mosphere, free from the many reverses and struggles through which he passed in this world, and where there will be no newspaper controversies and political wrangles to mar his endless and eternal pleasure.—Winder Economist.

The other day a rattlesnake’s pilot crawled out from under the house down at Billie Davis’, who lives on Cane creek. It was killed and thrown out into the road. In a short while a king snake made its appearance from the stump of a tree which seized the pilot by the throat and swallowed it. So it seems that Billy has a variety of snakes down his way.—Dahlonega Nugget. THE GAINESVILLE EAGLE, MAY 10, 1906. Governor Candler May Yet See. Some months ago the Eagle mentioned the fact that ex-Governor Candler was about to lose the sight of the only eye left him after the civil war. Everyone keenly sympathized with him when this sad misfortune was brought to their no tice, even those who opposed him politi cally expressing a deep sense of regret. This was genuine, for openly they op posed him politically. It is now more than gratifying to know that this eye has been operated on and it is highly probable that the op eration will prove successful and that Governor Candler’s eye-sight will be re stored to him and spared him during the evening of his illustrious life. The historical work he is doing for the state has been in progress all the while, as he has had able assistants to do all work -where eye-sight was neces sary. Was Wasting Away, “I had been troubled with kidney dis ease for the last five years,” writes Robert K. Watts, of Salem, Mo. “I lost flesh and never felt well and doc tored with leading physicians and tried all remedies suggested without relief. Finally I tried Foley’s Kidney Cure and less than two bottles completely cured me and lam now sound and well.” During the summer kidney irregulari ties are often caused by excessive drink ing or being overheated. Attend to the kidneys at once by using Foley’s Kid ney Cure. Dr. J. B. George. On the Gainesville Midland.

The work of laying the ties and rails will be fin ished and ready for operation by the early fall. The exact route over which the com pany will come into Athens has not yet been determined. A number of routes have been surveyed, but none have been decided upon as yet. TO CURE A COLD IN ONE DAY Take LAXATIVE BROMO Quinine Tablets, Druggists refund money if it fails to cure. E. W.

Teamster Got Shot. As stated last week, a teamster liked to have been poisoned to death by some of that liquor sold down about Thomp son’s bridge in Hall county. Within the next few days his son w r ent down and tried it and it also laid him up on the cooling board until Dr. Castleberry could give him relief. We are surprised at people drinking this stuff when they know that it is liable to kill them. —Dahlonega Nugget. it Paint le Start i Lead and Pure Lin ild always be used for riming coat. No other same affini for the surface— marrying and becoming a part of the wood. Yellow ochre, barytes, zinc or any other substance than Pure White Lead fails to unite with the wood and serves only to form a cushion, which will prevent even Pure White Lead from attaching itself when finally applied. Satisfactory results can nevef '/ 1 be obtained so long as a surface / > is coated with a veneering (for D / 1 that is all it is) of yellow ochre, barytes, zinc, etc. Such a coating is bound to crumble, crack and peel, and must be burned < r scraped off,_ down to the wood itself t before a good job can be done—an ex pensive process, and not without danger of fire.

The Southern Methodist Conference, the law making body of the church,is in session at Birmingham, Ala. Rev. B. F Fraser is attending, as a visitor, this week but will return before Sunday. An effort will be made to prepare a new statement of their faith and doc trine, such as will unite the different branches of the Methodist church or bring about their co-operation and meet the demands of the day. Omitting the preamble that reaffirms their absolute faith in their present articles of re ligion, the following is the resolution introduced to revise its form to meet present day demands: “Resolved, That the college of bish ops be requested to appoint a commis sion of five members, one of whom shall be a bishop, which shall invite other branches of Methodism to unite with us in the preparation of such a statement of our faith and such an ex pression of our doctrinal system as is called for in our day, and this commis sion shall represent our church in the preparation of the same.” FOR BOTH One disease of thinness in children is scrofula; in adults, consumption.
