Roland D. Grant,’ gave an ilfustrot-,
ed lecture in the Guards’ Hh.il last

Audience and the'aUatidanae'aft’tl In
terest manifested wiafc a. fine compli
ment. The lerture marked the open
ing of the Savannah Lyceum for the
season of 1904-05.
Much of the ehartrt of the lecture Ms
lost in a description of its merits.
His theme was “Studying Art in Rome
with Michael Angelo,” and as the pic
tures passed before the audience, and
were described by the lecturer, it war*
easy to see the great passion which art
stirred within hiin. * The entire .au
dience caught the spirit and followed
his every turn with a ready response.
The lecture was not only highly en
joyable, but was instructive,,, both of
which qualities serve to ejfpldm it*
popularity. From the reception glVeil
him it was evident that the popularity
of the lecture is good for another sea-
Son at least.
Dr. Grant is not only a man of abil
ity and- a good entert'ainSr. hut he is
a man of genius, an artist in soul,
voice and education. In speaking of
his work, Dr. Grant said:
"I did npt know that the bureau
had appointed mp to gj.vc art illustrat
ed lecture in November, but thought it
w*as to be in December, with a group
of illustrated lectures. When giving
these I have with njeurwr wn operator.-’
who is a genius in reding j.jy .'thoughts.
1 dread to give fxctiite ICctuVbs, and
when 1 learned that I must do so here,
I decided to cancel but . your
city which had already charmed me
has put me greatly In debt to ‘a group
of business men who mine to my res
cue and under great difficulty provid
ed and operated a stereopt con with ex
cellent results. These are all members
of the Camera Club, and may their
picture never grow’ less. ‘ I am charmed
by your city.”

POSTAL CLERKS GUESTS OF
HONOR AT A. 0. H. BAZAAR
Members of Savannah Association Attended,
Thirty Strong.
The Savannah branch of the Na
tional Postoffice Clerks’ Association
were the guests of honor at the An
cient, Order of Hibernians bazaar in
the Catholic Library Association Hall
last night. . .
The clerks, upon entering the hall,
were received by a committee who es
corted them to the supper tables in
charge of Mrs. R. .P. Walker and her
able assistants, who saw the wants
of the inner man were well satisfied,
after, which all hands -repaired to the
main hall and mingled with the crowd
around the fancy booths, country
store, and the innumerable attrac
tions at which the people were having
,a bargain day rush to get tlieir mon-,
ey down.
One attraction at ..the hall deserves'
.* pecial mention on account of the
mystery connected’with the party in
charge—namely, a fortune teller. This
lady came to the hall heavily veiled'
and volunteered her services to the
managers of the bazaar. She refused
to reveal her identity, but stated she
came only in the interest of a char
itable cause. After a hasty consulta
tion it was decided to erect a tent
near the stage for the mysterious lady,
who goes under the nom de plume of
the "Queen of Killarney.” An ex
pression of wonder was on the face of
those who emerged from her tent, and

Thousands of women of every age
and condition break down and are
brought to the very verge of utter col
lapse because they have kidney trou
ble and do not know' it. It saps vitality
—shatters nerves—makes work or rest
or sleep impossible.
Many a sufferer takes medicine* for
imaginary "female complaints” until
she is utterly discouraged and much
worse. And yet It is so easy to tell
when the kidneys are sick, and so easy
to cure them with the right sort of
treatment.
Prolonged neglect means diabetes
or Bright’s Disease.
How many apparently healthy wom
en there are W’ho begin to find house
hold work a burden; who are con
stantly “all-tired- out,” irritable and
depressed, and who suffer often from
sick, dizzy, headaches, pain in the
back and sides, rheumatism and irreg
ular flow of the urine.
They are always ailing, but not
sick enough to go to bed, and they
wait for the spells to pass away.
But the cause is still there. The kid
neys are sick, and work only aggra
vates the trouble.
The kidneys have in some way be
come congested, irritated, or inflamed,
•and are failing to remove the, uric
acid and other poisons from the blood
These poisons are attacking the nerves
muscles, and vital organs.
