| MUSIC NOTES |
Mrs. Frank Pearson, who is filling a
singing engagement of two weeks in
Augusta, has won a flattering ovation
from the public. In The Chronicle a
handsome picture of Mrs. Pearson il
lustrated a two-column story of her
I work with Atlanta churches and her
! musical career.
“Augusta is just now being treated
to a surprise in rather an unusual way,"
The Chronicle says, “particularly to
those who appreciate real musical tal
ent. The surprise is in the voice and
tlie unusualness of it in the fact that
an artist of this standing can be heard
at a. family amusement theater.
“Yesterday Mrs. Frank Pearaon, of
Vtlanta, sapg several times at the Mod
jeska and. as a matter of fact, she
had been singing there the day before,
too. and w ill for some days longer. To
attempt to go into a criticism of her
work, as it deserves, would require
time, s-pace and u greater musical abil
ity ; to one untrained in music, she was
■i- highly appreciated as her singing
was a surprise—but why should it not
have been, since she surprised grand
opera stars in Atlanta last April when
they heard her?"
Mrs. Pearson has a pleasant al
acquaintance in Augusta, and lias - n
entertained informally by Mr. am ' ’.
Edmund Allen Pendleton a.. 1- ..s
during her stay.
Informal Evening.
Mr. and Mrs. St. Elmo Mas.-# ngale
entertained at a bird supper last even
ing. a gam- of auction bridge following
supper. Those present were Mr. and
Mis. Charles Veazy Rainwater. Mr. and
Mis. Ivan Allen and Dr. and Mrs. Jo
seph Eby. The prizes were won by
Mis. Allen and Mr. Rainwater.
Miss Brown Gives Luncheon.
Mi.-s Margaret Hawkins and Miss
Katherine Ellis were tile guests of hon
or at a luncheon given by Miss Mar
jorie Brown, at her home on Peachtree
str- et today. Covers were laid for six
teen at a pretty table, decorated in cut
‘lowers. i

Spirits for Rheumatism
The use of spirits in ,the treatment of
rheumatism has proved an innovation
among the medical profession. When
mixed with certain other ingredients and
taken properly it is said to be an almost
infallible cure for rheumatism and back
ache. Here is the formula: “From your
1 druggist get one ounce of Toris com
pound (in original sealed package) and
one ounce of syrup of Sarsaparilla com
’ pound. Take these two ingredients home
and pul them into a half pint < f good
whisky. Shake the bottle and take a ta
blespoonful before each meal and at bed
time ." Results come immediately. If
your druggist does not have Toris com
pound in stock he will get it in a few
hours from his wholesale house. Don't
' be influenced to take some patent medi
cine Instead of this. Insist on having
the get.nine Toris compound in the orig
' inal one-ounce scaled yellow package.
Sore Feet Corns, Callouses, Bun
ions, Frost Bites, Aching and Sweaty
Feet. A spoonful of Calocide in the
foot-bath gives instant relief. Get a
2nc box at any drug store. (Advt.)
