THE MENGER
Now is the time of the good things that make living in the South a delight when Southern cooks—-
the kind that are at the Menger—preside over the cuisine. Into the Menger kitchens into the hands
of the white capped chef and his crew comes the procession of the
BEST EATING IN THE WORLD.
The proud bronzed turkey the juicy squab the Mammy Hannah chicken the Spanish mackerel
the gleaming pompano—and all the rest.
It is the old plantation cooking at the Menger-—and a Menger dinner is something to remember
with happy recollection.

Crain was toastmaster presiding
lover the dinner in a pleasing man-
I ner.
j The toasts were as follows:
"The Church.” Uy D. J. Shall of
Yoakum; “Knights of Columbus”
by Kev. G. J. McNamara of Austin
I vice president of the St. Edward’s
College; “The Ladles” by J. Hill
Glover nf San Antonio and “The
Flag.” by William Campbell. All
were ably rendered and brought ap-
plause. Mr. Campbell spoke in a con-
vincing manner and paid tribute to
the “Stars and Bars” in a manner
that hushed his audience and im-
pressed them deeply. As he closed
his address a large United States
flag dropped and unfurled and the
band played “The Star Spangled
Banner.” The effect was beautiful
The entire audience rose as the
flag unfurled and each waived a
small American flag to the end of the
national anthem.
A smoker and social hour fol-
lowed.
The San Antonio degree team
proved its reputation in a manner
very pleasing to the candidates re-
ceiving the work.
Yoakum Pioneer Is Dead.
YOAKUM. Tex.. Nov. 21. H Trib-
ble Sr. aged 73 years one of Yoak-
um’s oldest settlers died at his home
Sunday morning after several weeks
of illness. He served the city as may-
or and councilman and always took
| active part for the welfare of the
I city. During the war the deceased
•gave gallant service in the Confed-
I erate army and was given a cross
of honor by the Daughters of the
I Confederacy some years ago. He
• leaves a wife and six children. He
! was laid to rest in the Oak Grove
I cemetery.
A FEARLESS PHYSICIAN
I Such a physician recently re-
marked:—“The wonderful power of
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com-
pound over diseases of women Is not
because it is stimulant not because
। oit is a palliative but simply be-
| cause it contains the very elements
needed to tone up the female sys-
tem and strengthen the depleted
organism.” Of course that is so
otherwise it could not succeed as it
has.
To Keep Your Skin
Free From Hairs
(Beauty Topics)
If you are willing to spend a few
minutes time in your room using a
delatone paste you can easily ban-
ish any ugly hairy growth without
discomfort or injury. The paste v»
made by mixing some water with a
little powdered delatone. This is
then spread over the hairy surface
and after about 2 minutes rubbed '
off and the skin washed. You will ।
not be disappointed with this treat- ’
ment. providing you get real deli.- ।
tone. —(Adv.) I

A medical preparation like Dr
Kilmer's Swamp-Root that has real
curative value almost sells itself.

it fulfills almost every wish in over- I
coming kidney liver and bladder ।
diseases corrects urinary troubles ।
and neutralizes the uric acid which
causes rheumatism.
Do not suffer. Get a bottle of
Swamp-Root from any druggist

However if you wish first to te-
this great preparation send ten cent
to Dr. Kilmer & Co.. Binghamton.
