T!IM SOCI \fSLi:.
The Sociable which was given on
last Tuesday night, at the comfortable
home of Mr. Martin L. McDonald
regardless of the very inclement night,
was attended by a sh'fheieu'tly large
number of young people to make ic
a most enjoyable, and long-to-be re
membered occasYn. of great pleasure,
for those who were present.
We can but sympathize with those
I who were barred of the pleasures of
enjoying some splendid mu-ic, and in
eat ing some parched goobers which
wi re simply delicious; and all of this,
in addition to the greatest, pleasure of
all, that of conversing with some of
the charming young ladies until an
unusually late hour for depicting had
come, to badly disturb these pleasure
seekers, and makers
Some of tlii.se who did not attend,on
account of the disagreeable weather,
also all of those who did attend are
very desirous of having another such
occasion in the near f iture. am! they
arc all united on tho suggestion that
it be at the same place, and all wish'
for a beautiful night next time.

Seven Months With Fever.
Wonderful Recovery of Health.
Mr. Baird’s rapid and marvelous recovery
from a mere skeleton to his normal weight,
270 pounds, was surely the fuUrtt test of the
grandest strength-giving and building-up
medicine ever produced, namely:
Dr. Miles’ Restorative Nervine.
J. H. Baird.
"Gentlemen—l wish to express to you my
gratitude for the great good that Dr.
Mile k’ Nervine has done for me, I was
taken sick with typhoid fever and I laid
in bed for seven months. After getting
over t he fever I was thin, nervous ana tireel,
i and did not regain my lost strength, j tried
1 several proprietary medicines, arm. mi ally,
after having been reduced in weignt to IdO
pound*,] began trying your Neri'inc, and at
once began to improve. vVas H ntiU'j entirely
tured, ar.d today I can say I never felt bet
T>r in all ir.y life, and
