In the southeastern part of Lam-
pasas is a certain corner long fam-
ous for the courtesy, consideration and
kindness of its home-keeper and since
the -erection of the new brick home,
it has been the scene of many pleas-
ant entertainments, one of the most
enjoyable of which was pulled off
Wednesday afternoon in honor of Mrs.
Thomas’ mother, Mrs. Farmer of
Miles.
These friends wishing her to re-
member that another year had passed
decided to remind her in a pleasant
way and while each tried to out-talk
the other, in walked Mrs. Mat Smith
with her usual bright smile and an
armful of these reminders.
“If we are too weak to journey
Up the mountain steep and high,
We can chant a happy measure
As the hosts are passing by.
Though they may forget the singer
They will not forget the song.”
It is the small things in life that
count and we cherish the hope that
as our shadows lengthen we may pos-
sess some of the kindly graces of our
friend and sister. ; (
At five o’clock our hostess opened
the dining room doors and invited us
in to a beautifully appointed table,
which had for its center piece a large
bowl of pink rose buds. A most deli-
cious dinner was delightfully served
and lastly a large white cake cov-
ered with pink candles, which were
then lighted, we didn’t count them as
we may have a birthday of our own
in good time.
Wishing the honoree many returns
of the day, we realized that—

DANGER HEADED OFF
Constipation Troubles Soon Go
Away Following Use of
Black-Draught.
Burke, Texas.—Mrs. Oi*ea Craw-
ford, of this place, tells of her use
of Thedford’s Black-Draught which
she says covers a period of “a good
many years.”
“We use Black-Draught as a regu-
lar family medicine for constipation,
and I try always to keep it in the
house.
“I have found it a reliable medi-
cine to give the children when they
get upset from over-eating, or have
colds, for after taking Black-
Draught they get all right in a
little while.
“I use Black-Draught for bilious,
sick headache. I have found that
a dose or two, taken at night, will
give quick relief for constipation
and the complications which follow
When that condition runs on.
“A bad taste in the mouth in the
morning, dizziness and a dull head-
ache, all leave quickly after a few
doses of Black-Draught. I find it
is not safe to let such things run
on. I try to head off the danger
by taking Black-Draught in time.
It is a dependable medicine.”
At the first sign of constipation,
take Thedford’s Black-Draught.
This »purely vegetable medicine has
been in use nearly 100 years.
Sold everywhere. Try it. NC-225

IN A CIGARETTE, TOO, the real appeal is whole-

The new business house which has
been under construction on East
Third street by J. L. Frazer has been
completed this week and is one of
-the show places of the city. Mr. Fra-
zer built this place for the Holley-
Langford Motor Company, Chevrolet
dealets, and according to C. E. Lang-
ford, this firm expects to. move to
their new location about the 15th
of this month.
The new building is constructed of
brick and rock and has a plate glass
front with the glass extending a part
of the way down the side wall on the
corner thus enabling them to display
their cars very nicely. Nothing has
been spared in making this building
modern and substantial and it was
designed to take care of the needs of
the firm who is to occupy it, giving
them adequate space for an office,
parts department, display room, and
service department. In addition to
this, the company has recently im-
proved a used car lot to the rear of
the building.
