CHURCH BANQUET. THE CHARM OF M0THERH000 Enhanced By Perfect Physical Health. 'The experience of Motherhood ia a trying one to most women and marks distinctly an epoch in their lives.

Not one woman in a hundred is prepared or understands how to properly care for herself. Of course nearly every woman nowadays has medical treatment at such times, but many approach the experience with an organism unfitted for the trial of strength, and when it is over her system has received a shock from which it is hard to recover. Following right upon this comes the nervous strain of caring for the child, and a distinct change in the mother results. There is nothing more charming than a happy and healthy mother of children, and indeed child-birth under the right conditions need be no hazard to health or beauty. The unexplainable thing is that, with all the evidence of shattered nerves and broken health resulting from an unprepared condition, and with ample time in which to prepare, women will persist in going blindly to the trial.

Every woman at this time should rely upon Lydia E. Vegetable Compound, a most valuable tonic and invigorator of the female organism. In many homes once childless there are now children because of the fact that Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound makes women normal, healthy and strong. If yon want special advice write to Lydia E.

In perfect health we hardly realize that we have a network of nerves, but when health is ebbing, when strength is declining, the same nervous system gives the alarm in headaches, tiredness, dreamful sleep, irritability and unless corrected, leads straight to a breakdown.

To correct nervousness, Emulsion is exactly what you should take; its rich nutriment gets into the blood and rich blood feeds the tiny nerve-cells while the whole system responds to its refreshing tonic force. It is from alcohol. Scott ft Bowne, Bloomfield, N. J. Young Lady Shot But Not Dangerously Wounded by Uncle.

From Daily. Saturday night about 12:30 o'clock Miss Velma Rosson was shot by mistake by her uncle, Oscar Burns, at the family home on West Seventh avenye. The young lady's home is in Newland, in Western Texas, hut she is attending school here and 1s in this graduating class. She makes her home with her relatives here. She had been out with a party and when she left home told relatives that she would spend the night with a girl friend.

Later she changed her mind and returned home, entering the house through bhe kitchen in the rear part of the house. Her uncle, Mr. Oscar Burns, thought he heard a noise in the dining room and got up and went into his room, and seeing that she was in bed, returned to his own room and got his pistol, a 38-caliber. His room opens into the dining room and when he opened the door he saw some one standing there in the dark, and fired. The ball entered the side of the young neck, going entirely through the fleshy part and lodging in her clothing.

A son Qf Mr. Chas. Love was passing the house at the time in his automobile, and he and Mr. Burns took the young lady in the auto and hurried her to the home of Dr. Shell, where the wound was dressed, and where Miss Velma still is, and is resting well.

After reaching Dr. home the ball that had passed through the young neck was found on the seat of the auto. It had lodged in her clothing and fell out while the trip was being made. When shot the young lady was still covered with her robes, including mask and cap. The attending physician thinks Miss Velma will suffer no serious results from her wound, and that she will be all right again within a few days.

322-324 N. Beaton St. Red Feather Flour THE QUALITY Red Feather Flour is made from highest grade Missouri Soft Winter Wheat, and is a 25 per cent patent; that means that only one fourth of the best part of the highest grade wheat goes into this flour. So far as we know this is the shortest patent made; this fact and the praise accorded it by those now using it, we feel justifies our claim, for it, of Superior Excellence. THE PRICE While the quality is the very lest we nearly always have a lower price than you can get on other brands of high grade flour.

We buy in large contracts, direct from the mill, and have it shipped direct to us in car lots, by doing this we cut out the profits and secure the flour at first cost. SPECIAL the entire month of November, we will make a specially low price for the purpose of advertising and getting a wider distribution, for we feel sure that when you have used one sack of it we will have you for a customer.
