The most brilliant and elaborate of
the holliday affairs was the reception
on New Year's afternoon at the beau-
tiful home of Mr. and Mrs. C. P. Ham-
ilton. when Mesdames Hamilton, Lee
Hawkins, Lacy Noble, and H Math-
ewson were hostesses. The entire
house was prettily decorated ln pot-
ted plants and Christmas garlands
and wreaths. Festoons of red were
draped from the electroliers to the
corners of the rooms, and an addition-
al charm was given by the many
lights. In the dining room, where
an elegant two course luncheon was
served, the five small tables had cen
terpieces of a single large red carna-
tion with ferns, ln silver vases. The
dining table, from which the luncheon
was served, was unusually attractive
with Its decoration of white flowers.
Sprigs of holly, tied with red rib-
bon, were given as favors to about
one hundred ladies who called. The
guests were met by Miss Laura Todd,
niece of Mrs. Hamilton. Mesdames
Hawkins, Noble, R. C. Hannah, J. D.
Curreathers, Parks Ball and John
Trippett greeted them in the recep-
tion room; Mesdames Cassle Shaun,
Mary Herndon, Lige Peery, Frank
Shearer, Roy Tinsley, W. S. Vaughan,
Charles Evans, and Miss Lela Price
in the parlor and Mesdames Mark
Pace, Russell Jacobs, Will Jacobs,

ing room. Misses Lillian Hamilton,
Eva Powers, Elsie Hoover, Dorothy

tlce in their red and white frocks.

Kidney Pills are most effective.

William Henderson, farmer. Flftn
A RaodeUatt* Bis, Hobart, Oklaho-
ma, says: "My back pained roe a
great deal, but I paid no attention
to the trouble, thinking It would go
away. I grew worse and began lo
have trouble from tbe kidney secre-
tions. During the winter, tbe paasa-
ges of the kidney secretions were too
frequent and Just the reverse la tho
sumtnr. I felt dizzy wheaever I
stoaped. I tried a great many medi-
cines, but nothing seemed to do me
any good. I finally used Doan's Kid-
ney Pills and my back soon becamo
strong and I felt like a different
man." (Statement given Juae 8th,

HEALTHY CHILDREN con:
i
healthy children come from healthy
mothers. And
mothers will
certainly be
healthy If
they'll take Dr.
Pierce's Favor-
ite Prescription.
Nothing can
equal it ln build-
lng up a worn-
an's strength,
ln regulating and assisting all her
natural functions, ar.d in putting in
perfect order every port of the female
system. It lessens the pains and bur-
dens. supports and strengthens weak,
nursing mothers.
It's an invigorating, restorative tonic,
a soothing and bracing nervine.
Mas. O. T. Thompson, 831 East Oklahoma
Ave., Anadarko, Okla., says: "When I caught
a very bad cold I took 'Favorite Prescription'
as a woman's tonic and to throw off a cold. I
used the contents of one bottle. It brought me
through and gave me new health and strength.
Again I took another bottle because I was run
down and waa in a delicate way. The ' Favorite
Prescription' was a true friend at the time,
giving me just the help I needed. I shall always
recommend it and ipeak well of it."
