Society events
To the young ladles of the Sigma
Epsilon Omloron sorority belongs the
honor of the loading event of the week
In tho younger circles. On Thursday
evening at the Eaglo-Woodman hall
they gave their fourth annual dance
and the affair but added to their al
ready envlublo reputation as hostess
es. In the receiving line wore Mrs.
Henry Dixon Jones, and the Misses
Gertrudo Jordan, Mary Shea, Edith
Johnson and Edna Zimmerman, who
graciously welcomed tho gay throng
Into tho hall. The decoration scheme
was one of tho most novel and origi
nal ever devised to enhance the en
joyment of an occasion. It was typi
cal of the spring season. Myriads of
varlagated butterflies filled the air
and those were kept constantly aflut
ter by gentle breezes artificially cre
ated. On tho walls others of these
"beauties of the air" nestled amid
spring blossoms which loaded the air
with fragrance. With these sur
roundings the young ladles In their,
beautiful gowns and the gentlemen
In their evening dress, formed a hap
py animation to the scene. The
grand march was led by Miss Mary
Shoa and Mr. Carl Engdahl and was
followed by twenty numbers. Floor
and music were excellent and tho
ringed hours flew swiftly by. Sweet
punch and wafers were served In a
candle-lighted alcove. Patronesses
of the affair were the Mesdames II.
D. Jones, W. M. Blusher, II. J. Bean,
C. J. Smith, C. A. Cole, A. C. Shea,

THE CHILDREN ENJOY
Lifa out of doors and out of the fames which they play and
the enjoyment which they receive and the efforts which they make,
comes the greater part of that healthful development which is so
essential to their happiness when grown. When a laxative is
needed, the remedy which is given to them to cleanse and sweeten
and strengthen the internal organs on which it acts, should be such
as physicians would sanction, because its component parts are
known lo be wholesome and the remedy itself free from every
objectionable quality. The one remedy which physicians and parents,
well informed, approve and recommend and which the little ones
enjoy, because of its pleasant flavor, its gentle action and its bene
ficial effects, is Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna and for the
same reason it is the only laxative which should ba used by the
fathers and mothers.
. If you would have them grow to manhood and womanhood,
strong, healthy and happy, do not give them medicines when
medicines are not needed, and when nature requires assistance in
the way of a laxative, give them only the simple, pleasant and
gentle Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna. As yoj value the
health of the little ones, do not accept any of the substitutes which
unscrupulous doalers sometimes offer to increase their profits.
Please to remember, the full name of the Company Califonva Fig
Syrup Co. is printed on the front of every package To. get its

Washington, April 15. It was
learned today that Representative
Polndexter, Insurgent, objected to the
reappointment of Edwin L. Brunton
as postmaster at Walla Walla, and
that Burnton's nomination was sent
to the senate Tuesday after Polndex
ter hod urged that this office be giv
en to William Gregory.
This disregard for Polndexter's
wishes, however, is explained on the
ground that Brunton has made a good
record as postmaster, and is there
fore retained under Taft's rule to con
tinue efficient men in office.
