Florida Girls in Washington Misses Mary Byfield and Christine Hannah, two lovely Florida girls, well known in Ocala and St. Petersburg, are having a most enjoyable winter in the national capital. Miss Hannah is the guest of Miss Byfield, and the two young ladies are welcome guests at many of the most brilliant social af- iairs, among them the great Pan- American ball and the president's re ception to the judiciary, which took place on the evening of Dec. 19. In reference to the last named event, we clip the following paragraph from the Waashington Star. Mrs. Pollock is Miss Byfield's mother and Judge Downey is her uncle: "Judge and Mrs. George Eddy Downey; Mrs. Downey in pearl gray satin veiled in tulle, the corsage trim med with silver, lace and touches i of French blue velvet and the skirt mounted on a cloth of silver under- dress, finished at the bottom with ruffles of silver lace. Mrs. George M. Pollock of St. Petersburg, Fla., black tulle over cloth of gold, with the corsage of jet sequins and gold lace. Miss Mary Byfield of Florida, white tulle embroidered in silver over cloth of silver. Miss Christine Han Hannah nah Hannah of Florida, pale blue charmeuse veiled in gold tulle and trimmed with gold lace." Mrs. Pollock and her daughter re sided in St. Petersburg till recently, when they moved to Washington. Her daughter and Miss Hannah have been bosom friends since their kidlet days. The pictures of the two young ladies have frequently been in the society pages of the Washington papers. grinditorial paragraphs, it is the re suit of that chicken. If the angels who sung, "On earth peace, good will toward men," are yet alive, they probably felt too droopy and disconsolate to fly this Christmas. Making New Year resolutions prob probably ably probably originated in the good old times when the average man did not think he was celebrating the holiday sea season son season unless he was thoroughly soused. Sobriety and other virtues generally look very attractive to a man just getting over a drunk, and it was therefore much easier to make good resolutions at that time than at any other season of the year. A quiet and well cared for home used to be the best place in the world, and, though civilization is making it scarcer, it is the best place yet.

Danger Signal If the fire bell should ring would you run and stop it or go and help to put out the fire? It is much the same way with a cough. A cough is a dan ger signal as much as a fire bell. You should no more try to suppress it than to stop a hre bell when it is ringing, but should cure the disease that caus es the coughing. This can nearly al- ways'be done by taking Chamberlain's Lough Remedy. Many have- used it with the most beneficial results. It is especially valuable for the persistent cough that so often follows a bad cold or an attack of the grip.

The true meaning of a national Thanksgiving day is often misunder misunderstood. stood. misunderstood. To some it is merely a day for bagging a few quails, squirrels, or oth other er other wild game. To others it is a day to indulge in some recreation and enjoy a square meaL To some It. is a day for recounting our materiaTgain over our less fortunate brothers during the fleeting year. There are other various notions as to the real purpose of a Thanksgiving day each year. Whatever may be the ideal purpose of a real Thanksgiving day, it should be one as full as possible of good cheer, but to employ the day in re recounting counting recounting our material achievements achievements-gains gains achievements-gains and losses is a sin with th blackest kind of complexion. The true meaning of Thanksgiving means no jnore than the duty which each indi individual vidual individual owes to the Creator every day in the year. It Is a day when each person should weigh his motives along with his ability to help his fellow man in his own individual way, and to re return turn return thanks for not only the goodness which has befallen him, but to pledge with it an effort to strive to be a great greater er greater blessing to the community in which he lives, than any previous year. Ex change. PREPAREDNESS The Best Blessing. We need to be on our guard at the Thanksgiving season against an ex exaggeration aggeration exaggeration of the importance of mere merely ly merely material benefits. A big yield of corn or wheat is not to be compared in weighing our national blessings, with an awakened public 'conscience. Added material comforts in the home are Insignificant alongside of a new sympathy and, understanding between the different' members of the family. It is well to thank God for bountiful harvests and comfortable homes, but let our best gratitude be kept for the higher things, the blessings of the spirit Painful Coughs Relieved " Dr. Kiner's New Diseoverv is soothing, healing remedy for coughs and colds that has stood the test of nearly fifty years.
