The past week has been marked by many pleasant social gatherings not only among the various qhurch socle ties but also among the different lodges, of our city. These social gath erings Jend to promote the interests of theocletyj under whose auspices they are given aqd are gladly wel corned. During the past week the superiority of local taletvt over that of much more pretentious performers was clearly demonstrated. Mrs,, Brown-Savage's recital, Wednesday evening, furnished Salem lovers of dramatic work'a;plea8ant evening's entertainment. The Salem JLndy M2nstrels' per formance, Friday evening, was also a pleasant departure from tiro usual or der of entertainments, especially of local orJgln. Fifty of 8alcms hand Bomo belles roost satisfactorily assumed the somewhat '''difficult role of the negro and each sustained her part remarkably woN.1 , Tiro worthy object for which the affair was given no doubt partially accounted for the MISSIOKARV KNTBRTAIXMENT AND SO CIAL. Seroral dajos ago the missionary societ) issued invitations as fol'ows: "The Ladies Milonary society of the First Presbyterian church, Salern, Or., invite vou and your friends to at tend their annual mite box opening service, and to meet Fatina Biba, Itahimo, Basanthor. and Dr.Maud Al len, from India, at 7:30 p. ra.t Decem ber 10, 180G, in the churah parlors." These invitations were accepted far and wide, and tlie parlors were filled with friends, eager to meet the late arrivals from India. The meeting wa opened by the president of tlie society, Mrs. II. V. Matthews. Tlie devotional exercises were led by Mrs J. 31. 3Iartin. Little 3Iiss Lucile Chase then fav ored tlie audience with a recitation, showing what a little girl did for mis sions. This recitation was exceedingly well rendered and, for one so young, showed special talent. In (he meantime the India ladies had arrived. They were all dressed according to their caste, each caste in India 'having a diflerent dres. Fatima Biba was represented by MissCara Bozorth. On account of her bjing one of the very high caste women of Central India, she is never allowed to speak a single word in pub lic, to Mrs. II. V. 3Iatthews gave a short description of her home life. Rahimo (Miss Pearl Applegate), a Mohammedan woman, from Jagraon, India, was next introduced. She bc- lenga to the low class and, at present, is cook for Dr. Maud Allen. A short talk was given by her, showing the need of more Bible teachers. Next, the little village girl (Miss Ida Mozier), was introduced, and in a few words told tlie story of her home life. She lives in Jagraon, India, and is a near neighbor of Dr. Maud Allen. Basanthor, a Hindoo woman (3Iiss 3Iarie Rockwell) then came forward and told of the wrongs and sufferings, the women of Central -India had to endure. 31rs. Ella McDowell sang a very sweet solo, the words of which were .t.itt-cu uyamnaoo woman, ZZDr. 3Iaud Allen (Miss Hellen Slat thews), told of her work in India, the nastyear, and also about her vaca tion the past summer. Iler descrip tion of her surroundings, was very In teresting. She gave an accurate ac count of the new hospital, which has recently been built at Jagraon. The opening of the mite boxes fol lowed, and special prayer for 3Iiss Allen. The guests from India then served the audience with a typical India lunch, and a social hour fol lowed. At a late hour the company dis spersed, feeling that they had spent an evening long to be remembered. A BOCIAL SESSION.

"Burned-Cork" artist hardly ever fail to please an audience, and the performance given Friday evening, by the lady minstrels vas no exception. From tlie moment the curtain rose until it went down tlie entertainment of tho audience was evident. The object forwhich the play was given, was a most laudable one. and worthy of the patronage it received. The affair was successful from a social as well a$ a financial standpoint and the amount to be turned over to the Salem hospital will exceed expectations. It is difficult to assume the roles pre sented, and sustain the parts, yet each member of the company last eveniug, acquitted herself creditably. The costumes were perfect, while the "tan" could not have been Improved upon. -Tlie solos, quartettes and ehorouses, all possessed melody and were "very acceptably rendered. All Jokes were original and catchy. 3Irs- Hallle Parrlsh-Hingcs, as musical director, made a typical miris strel, her rich soprano adding greatly to the strength and beauty or the various musical numbers. JIls3 Esther Collins, as the Interlocuteress, did very well. 3IIssessEdna 3Ioody, Hor tense Levy and Sophia Wolf operated the bones In a skillful manner, while 3Ilsies Ethel Hughes, Jennie Booth and 3Iae Carpenter produced some very agreeable music from the tam bourines, As "end-men," this sex tette kept the audience in a contin ual roar between the musical num bers. The soloists for the evening, the numbers from whom were greatly ap preciated, were 31isses Ethel Ray mond, Mattie Southwlck, nortense Levy, Grace Babcock, 3IIna neulat, Lona White, and 3Irs. H. B. Holland 2nd 3Irs. Hinges. The stump speech on "Woman's Rights" by3Irs. Guess-me-ir-you-can elicited considerable applause, but the orator did not retaln"her"Identity very long. 3Ir. Burggrat's speech last eveniug was up to the usual high staudard of that gentleman's efforts. The plantation scene was quite realistic and the chorus "Roll Out, Heave Dat Cotton" was very beautl fnl. 3Iiss Helen Copeland's song and dance was as well received as It was well executed. The colored Knights of Pythias pa rade, with 3Ilss Hortense Kimball as captain, was very successfully carried out. Tlie selection by the "Quartette or 'Vunties" consisting of 3Irs. Hinges, and Misses 3Iina Heulat, Lona White and Rose Woodruff, received a deafen ing encored. The entertainment was concluded with the laughable farce entitled "Belles in the Kitchen." The per formers were as follows: , Dinah (an old cook). . . .EthorJUolllns Tilly (a waitress). . . .Mollle Bernard! Susan (a chambermaid). Jennie Booth Betty (a scujlery maid) C Holland Lucy (a laundress) Ethel Hughes Little Lucy (her child...

At the weekly meeting or the Phll oderian literary society or Willamette University last evening four applica tions for membership were received. The society is in a most flourishing condition, morq interest being mani fested at present than thero has been for some time. Interesting pro grams aro carried out every Friday evening and the benefit to be derived therefrom by the members of the so ciety, can not be over-estimated. A lively debate was had on the subject, "Resolved that the government should neither own nor control the railroad, telegraph or telephone sys tems." It was decided in the negative. B. E. nanoy was leader on the affirm ative and F. R. Bowersox led the neg ative. In view of the fact that the Salem Choral society will present "Elijah" at the opera house next Frl eyenlng, the 18th Inst., there will be no meeting of the society on that evening. Tiro subject for debate at the first meeting of the society follow ing tiro Christmas holidays Is, "Re solved, That the United States should Intervene, by force If necessary, In be half of the Armenians." The leaders are Floyd Field and C. J. Atwood for the affirmative and negative respect ively. Tho regular semi-terra "open meeting" will be held in the society rooms on Wednesday evening, Decem be23.

The young ladles were appropriately costumed and the many exercises through which they passed were indeed as pleasantly re ceived as they were gracefully exe cuted. Prof. Sara Brown-Savage, the talented professor of elocution at Willamette University, appeared in the curse scene from "Leah, the For saken" In the delivery or which the greatest anticipations or the audience were Tully realized. The delivery was up to that lady's usual standard of excellence. 3Ilss Esther Collins re cited "The Goblin Gate" very grace- rully and was warmly applauded. Miss Ethel Hughes recited "That Old Sweet heart or 3Ilne" and "The Low Backed Car" in her usual accom plished manner. A farce entitled "The 3Iouse Trap" was next presented. The cast con sisted of 3Irs. Savage, 3Il6ses Tenta Kimball, Oska 3Iatthcws and Jessie Settlemler. The farce was presented in its humorous details much to the amusement of the audience.

There were booths pres ided over by the fair sex where lemon ade and other refreshments, fancy work, hand-painted novelties, flowers, dolls, books and holiday goods were to be purchased. The booths did a thriv ing business. Theicostumcs worn by those participating In tlie carnival were peculiary realistic and adapted to the characters they represented thus adding largely to the success of the originality of the affair. The cast of characters was as follows: 31other Goose Mrs. J. W.

There is only one way to get well. Do whatever you will, if you do not put your digestion in good order, and make your blood rich and pure, you will not get well. Rich, pure blood is ill I the only tning uai V. 1 I can bring perfect R I health. A large part H I of all th diseases ! I that afflict mankind J tare traceable directly W 'to impurities in. the blood, and can be cured by eliminating these impurities. That most dreadful of all diseases, consumption, is a disease of the blood. The disease shows in the lungs because of some inherited or acquired weak ness there. If the blood were always pure and without germs, the disease would never develop and in time weakness itself would be overcome. Germs and impurities.ln the blood float along through the body until they find a weak spot for lodgement They stick there and develop and people call the disease by the name of the organ afflicted. As a matter of fact, the disease is always a disease of the blood, and if the blood be purified, the diseasa will be cured. That is a perfectly natural, rational conclusion, en. dorsed both by common sense and the MtrVio.t mrAtrnf nllfhnritw. It is in aCCOrd' ance with these facta that Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery works. The first thing it does is to put the whole diges live system into perfect order. It stimu lates the appetite, excites the copious secre tion of the digestive fluids and promotes assimilation. It searches out disease germs wherever they may be, kills them and forces them out of the system. The "Gld.e2 Medical Discovery" has beep used with unvarying success for over 30 years.
