Indigestion has always caused more nervousness than any other ailment. If you have indigestion, you don’t get all the nutriment out of your food that you should. Your worn out stomach passes the food on without extracting enough nu tritious substance to supply the blood and nerves. And if the nerves are not supplied with nourishment, they begin to re bel. They kick up a great disturb ance. They make you irritable and cranky, you worry about trifles, and you cannot sleep soundly at night, you have bad dreams, and you get up in the morning unrefreshed.

Her hat was of cream braid faced with blue and trim med with blue plumes. Before leav ing for Charleston she changed tier gown for a stunning traveling suit of Copenhagen blue with hat to match. Mrs. Ehrhardt is very delightfully known among a wide circle of friends who are devoted to her and who real ize with the sincerest regret that her marriage has remover her from their midst, as she will make her home in Charleston.

The First Principle Of the Salaried Man Should Be To Save IT is possible that luck may play an important part in the quick making of fortunes, but it has nothing to do with fortunes ac cumulated from the savings of labor. A BANK account, however, will be of assistance and the young man or woman who will take this method of saving from hi* or her salary will eventuall • reach the desired goal. THIS BANK welcomes the ac counts of those people who are working on salary and have a desire to save a part of it. WE PAY YOU 4 PER CENT INTEREST AND COMPOUND IT SEMI ANNUALLY. Irish-American Bank, “The Bank For Your Savings” MRS. FANNY MacDONALD MATRON OF “TRAVELER’S AID.” Mrs. Fanny MacDonald yas yester day afternoon elected by the City Un ion of the Kings’ Daughters as ma tron of the Kings’ Daughters Travel ers' Aid, and will, on March Ist, take charge of the office which this organ ization will establish at the Union depat. The office of this institution will be the large assembly room at the Un ion Station, and will be located in a position most adaptable for the work w'hich the matron is expected to per form. Just at present the commit tee having the work in charge are in terested in securing a desirable desk for the matron and a contribution of this piece of furniture would be very much appreciated. A sign bearing the inscription, “The Kings’ Daughters Travelers’ Aid” will be hung in a conspicuous place so that the matron may be read ily located. The matron will also wear an offi cial badge, which will make her easily distinguishable by those who desire to locate her and that will at the same time lend to her appearance a certain authoritative dignity. The nature of the work that is to be performed by the matron and the institution over which she will pre side has already, been outlined in The Herald. The work is designed for the benefit of women, and es pecially young women and children, who come into the city as strangers or who have to remain at the sta tion for long periods while en route to some distant point. Among other things they will be especially safe guarded in the choice of a stopping place and to aid in this a list, of all the first-class hotels and boarding houses will be kept on file, with their rates, etc., so that the new-comer will have some guide in the selection of a desirable place. The committee counts itself as very fortunate in being able to secure the services of Mrs. MacDonald as ma tron. because it believes that she is not only eminently qualified in every way to launch and firmly establish this long needed institution, but that she has the interest of the work suf ficiently at heart to see that the full mention of the Union is carried out. Mrs. B. F. Brown, as well as her associates on the committee, of which she is chairman, deserves groat praise for the work which the Union has organized, as this has been a feature that was sadly lacking in Au gusta heretofore. Communications have been sent to all of the secret societies asking their support for this work, and it ih hoped ultimately to secure the co-operation of the rail roads themselves, though it has been learned that no help in the way of financial support can be expected from this source just now. The rail road and station officials, however, will assist the matron and her insti tution in every legitimate way, and do all that they can to facilitate her work. IN HONOR OF MRS. WtGGIN. Characterized by all the beauty an social charm that is always in evi dence when Mrs. George E. Whitney is hostess, was the luncheon today at which she entertained twelve guests in honor of her guest, Mrs. J. H. Wiggin, of Boston, whose presence in Augusta is a great pleasure to all tvho have met her. The table at which a delicious menu was served was radiant with the golden light from an immense plateau of yellow tulips placed down the centre. En twined on the back of each guest’g chair was a shower of delicate ferns arranged as to form an outer wreath of green about the table. In each cluster was placed one of the new no vels. As the guests were received upstairs they were served refreshing grape juice by Mrs. Wiggin, who stood beside a beautiful little floral barge of fancy straw and who told the guests that the cargo had already been unloaded down stairs but that she would present to them a bill of lading in the shape of a card upon which was written a sentence com plete with the exception of one word, to be supplied in the title of the book attaohed to the holder's chair, in this way enabling her to find her place at the festive board and engaging in a merry little contest of wits and up-to-dateness. Mrs. Whitney was particularly for tunate in having as her guests such a charming and congenial group of bright, brainy women aB were today gathered to meet Mrs. Wiggin, her self one of the brightest and a woman of delightful charm. MRS. BRANCH ENTERTAINS FOR MRS OSGOOD. Mrs. Edward ORgood, whose visits to her old home are always so wel come to her many friends, was the honor guest at a beautiful bridge par ty given yesterday, the game being followed by an informal tea at which were present a number of friends. THIN FOLKS MADE PLUMP Thin people are simply suffering from want of nourishment! If you are thin, it Is because the food you eat is not assimilated and passes through the system without building up the flesh and tissue as it should. You can readily get plump and rosy by using Samose, a tissue forming food which when taken with the meals, Immediately becomes a flesh building and life-giving element in the blood. Use Samose for a few days and in crease of iife, vigor and weight is felt and you will notice yourself getting plump and rosy. Samose builds up the system, puts flesh on the bones, brings back the glow of health to the pallid cheek and removes the tired and languid feeling which is the result of exhaustion and low vitality. Green & Horsey are Introducing Samose to their customers and rec ommend it highly. They give the best proof of their belief that Samose will do all that Is claimed for It by offering to refund the money If |t fails to increase the weight and re store good health.
