Mr. and Mrs. William Gray of Savannah, Mo., have issued invitations announcing the marriage of their daughter, Miss Dicy Anna to Mr. A. Hatch of Kansas City, Mo. The ceremony will occur at their home Wednesday evening Nov. 30. The bride is a niece of one of our well known citizens, Mr. Jefferson Logan.
Mr Rolland Diggs, who was shot a few week ago by Mathews, (who is still at large) died last Monday morning at the Methodist hospital, after suffering greatly. Mr. Diggs was a coal miner by trade and came from near Richmond, Mo., and had only been in our state and county about three years. Thus it is a pity that a man's life is snatched away when he is so much needed.

Thursday evening Nov. 10, there was a musicale given at the Corinthian Baptist church, in which there was a prize given for the most artistic set table. The tables were to be set for six and set as the waiters choose, but the table winning the prize was set for four. The only consolation that the Elk Club waiters have is to know that the waiter's table winning the prize thought that the Elk Club waiters should have had it. The Elk Club waiters were given second prize and they donated it to the church.

AN EXPLANATION
The Imperial Band did not go to Enterprise last Monday because a member of the band lost about all he had in a fire that burned his house early Sunday morning, and one of the Harmony Four Quartett was very sick, and another member had a death in his family, hence the concert was postponed until the first part of next month.
WEDDING
Married last Monday evening at the residence of Rev. H. S. Graves, Mr. William McGruder to Miss Philolette Langford, both of this city. Miss Langford had just returned from New York City where she had been visiting for the past few months. The wedding ceremony was performed by Rev. H. S. Graves in the presence of a few intimate friends. The groom is one of the well known and industrious young men of our city; while the bride was practically raised here, she formerly came from Osceola, Iowa. Miss "Phi" is well liked here and is an industrious young lady. May their married life be one of success.

He awakened about 3 a.m. by smelling smoke and he got up to make an invest gation and found that his house was on fire. A Freeman who lives in part of the house was badly burned before he was aroused and taken out. Had not Mr. Lee made the discovery when he did Mr. Freeman would have perished, and perhaps Mr. and Mrs Lee also. The origin of the fire is unknown.
GOOD-MITCHELL
Robert Good, of this city, and Mrs. Lauren Mitchell were married on Tuesday, November, 1, 1904, at Kansas City, Kansas, Rev. Maupin officiating. The bride is intelligent and highly respected by all who know her. She was raised on a farm located between Lawrence and Kansas City owned by her parents and who are in good circumstances. The groom is one of our best colored citizens, who served in the union army during the civil war and has the friendship of all who know him. The happy couple arrived from Kansas City Sunday and will at once go to house-keeping in Mr. Good's nice home on Q street—Decatur County Journal, Leon, Iowa.
We, like the Journal, can say that Mr. Good is one of the good and respectable citizens of Decatur County. We congratulate you Robert, and may your married life be happy and prosperous.
OF SPECIAL INTEREST TO WOMEN
It is doubtful if any other newspaper in the United States caters so successfully to the varied interests of the home as does The Chicago Record-Herald. There is a fashion article in every issue; a department devoted to interesting items of unending variety concerning matters in which women have special interest; Mme. Qui Vive's "Woman Beautiful" column, in which questions concerning the toilet, etc., are answered and useful hints are given; "Meals for a Day," including menus and recipes for the three meals every day; an installment of a highgrape serial story, and in addition the "Stories of the Day" column on the editorial page. S. E. Kiser's humorous "Alternating Currents," the boys' and girls' page and Dr. Withrow's article on the Sunday School lesson in the Friday issues; also entertaining and in the Sunday issues numerous special fashion, household and other articles, all very interesting to the sex, including the best full page of fashions appearing in any newspaper; "How to Be Healthy and Beautiful," by Mrs. Henry Symes, "a page for the Home Dressmaker," and two full pages, beautifully colored, reproducing the latest fashions.
To the many friends who so kindly
aided us in caring lor our beloved
sister, Mrs. Sarah Smith, we extend to
you all our hearty thanks.

Aluminum Dishes.
Aluminum cooking utensils are being piled by many of the big shops. They are brought out in shapes as at traverse as the fine silver, copper and good lined cooking vessels used in wealthy households. The stew pana terrapin dishes, coffee urns and tea-kettles of aluminum have now such beauty of contour and finish that they seem almost more appropriate to the dining-table table than to the kitchen.
Expensive Invitations
The latest craze in New York among the very wealthy is an extravagant style of invitation card. Net long ago the wife of a millionaire ordered 200 of these from a local firm and they cost her just $10 each. The cards were made of ivory edged with gold, the name of the guest and hostess being lettered in gold on one side, the other being hand-painted. Cards at $each are quite common.
Asked and Answered.
"What is a prodigy?" asked the boarding house landicid, as she looked up from a letter she was perusing.
"A prodigy," answered the wise guy at the southeast corner of the table, "is something rare. For example, a rare steak would be a prodigy in this hash dispensary."
Cause and Effect
"You seem to be in a weak and nervous physical condition," said the medical examiner of the insurance company. "No wonder," replied the victim. "Your solicitors have made my life a burden during the past six months."
IN WASHINGTON
(By Robert Terrell.)
Samuel Coleridge-Taylor, the noted English composer, is in our city, and his visit to the Nation's capital is an event of supreme importance to colored Americans all over this country. He comes to hear the only society in the world that bears his name render his great work, "Hiawatha." He himself will conduct it, and this will be the first time in his brilliant career that he has wielded the baton for a chorus composed entirely of men and women in whose veins flow Negro blood—men women akin to him in this respect. This great chorus of more than 200 voices will have the assistance of the famous Marine band, as well as the inspiration that it must get from the presence of the great composer.
Convention Hall is the most spacious auditorium in Washington, and it is here that the concert will take place on two nights, November 16 and 17, "Hiawatha" on the first night, and special works of Mr. Coleridge-Taylor (that is his name, not Mr. Taylor) on the second night. The success of the performance has long been assured in a financial way. There has been a big demand for tickets, and people, white and black, have exhibited the same anxiety to obtain choice seats as they do for the concerts of the great Boston Symphony Orchestra. Of course all of us, the singers and their friends, are on the tiptoe of expectancy, anxious to know what the renowned Coleridge-Taylor will say about, the rendition of his work by "The Samuel Coleridge-Taylor Choral Society." This orignization has won its way into the hearts of the music-loving people of Washington. How will it impress the genius and master mind.
The Washington Post of today gives this excellent account of Mr. Coleridge-Taylor:
"To a reporter the composer talked interestingly of his career. He began his education in music at the early age of six with the study of the violin, and was able to read music before he could read the alphabet. At the age of sixteen he became a student in the Royal College of Music in London, where he continued the study of the violin for nearly two and a half years, when his thoughts were turned in the direction of composition by a scholarship which was offered for the best musical composition, and his success in securing this scholarship decided his career. His instructor was the celebrated Sir Charles Villiers Stamford, the composer of the well-known opera, "Shamus O Brien."
"The attention of the general public was first directed to S. Coleridge-Taylor by the production a the Gloucester festival of 1899 of an orchestral 'Ballade in A Minor' of his composition. This was followed in about three months by the first part of 'Hiawatha,' a dramatic cantata in three parts, which hast made him famous, not only in England, but also in this country, and which has been produced by the Royal Choral Society, of England, the society of the first rank in that country, and which contains over 1,000 voices.
"Just before his departure for this country, the composer was appointed director and conductor of the Handel Choral Society, of London, which, after the Royal Choral Society, is the most important choral society in all Great Britain. This society is composed, to a large degree, of members of the nobility, and numbers among its members a son of Gladstone.
"Of his own work S. Coleridge Taylor thinks that his latest composition, a sacred cantata called 'The Atonement,' is the best, though he admits that many of the public prefer 'Hiawatha.'
"In appearance, though colored, the composer has clear-cut delicate features, and possesses a face of the greatest intelligence; his figure is slender and graceful, and his manner which is quite English, is most courteous and well-bred. He is twenty-nine years of age, having been born in London in 1875.
"On November 16 and 17 S. Coleridge-Taylor will conduct the choral society which bears his name in the production of 'Hiawatha' and other of his compositions at Convention Hall. The Choral Society will be assisted by an oruhestra of fifty-two pieces of the United States Marine Band." Mr. Coleridge-Taylor says that he is very favorably impressed with what he has seen in America. The people of Washington are determined to make his visit not only pleasant but instructive as to condition, civilization and progress of the colored folks in the United States. Washington, D. C., Nov. 6, 1904.—New York Age.

SUGGESTIONS
(Special to Bystander.)
It is supposed that the readers of this most valuable paper will not construe the writer as attempting to revolutionize the progress which is so demonstrative along certain lines. For it is being clearly demonstrated by a number of the more thoughtful and intelligent of the race, that for the good of themselves and the great general one an awakening to sense of duty is necessary. We must apply ourselves to that which is more edifying than that of a mere butterfly existence. It is nearing the time when the various social pleasures are at their zenith; such as dancing, cards, etc. While these popular amusements offer much pleasure, why persist in them as the chief amusement of the hour. There comes a time, you will admit, in every intelligent man or woman's life when he or she becomes tired of pleasures, asks the question, are we advancing intelligently or are we advancing retrograding? That is the time, then, to listen to the voice of conscience.
We are surrounded by a vast amount of intelligence. We have men and women of whom we need not be ashamed who are trying to do all that they can in the way of improvement both morally and socially. We have in our city an association hall where the young people can and derive much pleasure. The promoters are earnestly working to make it a success. Why not encourage them? We have musicians, executiveitor orators, many of these are not affiliated with any church or organizations, and we have also many intelligent women who are wasting their talent upon "the desert air." Why not come in touch with the woman's clu, a band of noble workers, laboring for the upkeep of the house, but no one is not desirous of that, there is other work they can engage themselves. Nature has provided us with certain faculties, not even one is adapted to the same, but there is something for each one to do. Do not let the talents, however small, lie dormant, but awaken to the fact that this is an age of progression. The opportunities are great if we only but grasp them.
A momentous problem confronts us, what will we do with the boys and girls of today? We must train the mind, and with that properly trained we can train the hands.
"Let us then be up and doing," with a heart for any fate. Still pursuing, still achieving. Learn to labor and to wait.
—Mrs. Belle Banister.

Every housekeeper should know that if they will buy Defiance Cold Water Starch for laundry use they will save not only time, because it never sticks to the iron, but because each package contains 16 oz.—one full pound—while all other Cold Water Starchs are put in 1/4-pound packages, and the price is the same, 10 cents. Then again because Defiance Starch is free from all injurious chemicals. If your grocery tries to sell you a 12-oz. package it is because he has a stock on hand which he wishes to dispose of before he puts in Defiance. He knows that Defiance Starch has printed on every package in large letters and figures "16 oz." Demand Defiance and save much time and money and the annoyance of the iron sticking. Defiance never sticks.
People who look for a needle in a haystack give themselves needless trouble.
Don't you know that Defiance Starch besides being absolutely superior to any other, is put up 10 ounces in package and sells at same price as 12 ounce packages of other kinds?

Then he goes to bed, and falling to realize that almost every night his house is shifted over the road, he can't understand why the morning's search for the bone is faint. Then he's mad. He thinks some one has stolen it, and it isn't safe to go near him for several days in a place, times we step secretly in a place, times we just enough incentive to keep him digging holes. He's planted bones all over this country and the greater part of Europe, and has lost 88 out of every 100."

A Grocer of Ossian, Ind., had a practical experience with food worth anyone's attention.
He says: "Six years ago I became so weak from stomach and bowel trouble that I was finally compelled to give up all work in my store, and in fact all sorts of work, for about four years. The last year I was confined to the bed nearly all of the time, and much of the time unable to retain food of any sort on my stomach. My bowels were badly constipated continually and I lost in weight from my pounds down to 88 pounds.
"When at the bottom of the ladder I changed treatment entirely and started in on Grape-Nuts and cream for nourishment. I used absolutely nothing but this for about three months. I slowly improved until I got out of bed and began to move about.
"I have been improving regularly and now in the past two years have been working about fifteen hours a day in the store and never felt better in my life.
"During these two years . have never missed a breakfast of Grape-Nuts and cream, and often have it two meals a day, but the entire breakfast is always made of Grape-Nuts and cream alone.
"Since commencing the use of Grape-Nuts I have never used anything to stimulate the action of the bowels, a thing I had to do for years, but this food keeps me regular and in fine shape, and I am growing stronger and heavier every day."
"My customers, naturally, have been interested and I am compelled to answer a great many questions about Grape-Nuts.
"Some people would think that a simple dish of Grape-Nuts and cream would not carry one through to the noonday meal, but it will and in the most vigorous feastor."

"Back, You! This Is My Week"
From the beginning, with but few exceptions, Thanksgiving have been kept in the late autumn, owing to the harvest time, of course, and more frequently toward the end of November. No one knows how the custom of appointing Thursday originated, but some light is doubtless thrown on the subject by a controversy over a proposal to change the day of the week, about 1690, when the dissenters argued that Thursday was preferable, because of the Thursday lectures, or midweek religious services, that took place every week in communities of considerable size, a joint observance of the two days rendering it unnecessary, of course, for many to sacrifice a day's labor, especially for Thanksgiving.
Although the pilgrims were the first to observe Thanksgiving on this continent, the Salem colonists, on their voyage over here in 1629, observed Thanksgiving on shipboard, in which everybody, passengers, captain and crew, took part, as an acknowledgment of a favorable breeze that had followed a preceding day of fasting and prayer.
*Winthrop colony, in 1630, also observed a Thanksgiving, apparently entirely without any inspiration from the pilgrims, but in accordance with their former custom in England, the motive in this case having been gratitude for the safe arrival of their fleet at Charlestown, where purely religious services were held beneath a tree, for it was in hot weather, July 8.
The Winthrop colony's second Thanksgiving here, which is commonly spoken of by historians as their first, was about eight months later, Feb. 22, when having moved over to the peninsula of Shawmut and taken up their abode in log houses, huts, hovels and even holes in the side of Beacon hill, their number sadly depleted by diseases caused by purified food, and even absolute starvation, the arrival of their fellow townsmans, Capt. William Peirce, with a shipload of provisions from Ireland, and, best of all, "good store of lemon juice" to arrest the ravages of the scurry, furnished them with good cause for devout thanksgiving and gastronomic dissipation as well.
The colony probably comprised 200 or less, no church had yet been built, and it is doubtful if there was any public religious observance of the day. Neither can the bill of fare of any of the households have been sumptuous, according to our ideas, judged by the record of the ship's cargo, which shows that the best the Boston cuisine could have then af-
forced was corned beef or boiled salt park, oatmeal or wheatmeal mush, without milk or sirup, and ship's biscuit with cheese.
Yet who shall say it was not deemed a rich feast, when we learn from one who participated in it that a repast consisting of "meal, water and a little salt, boiled together, was so good that none could ask for a better meal."
Digestion was facilitated by copious drafts of ale, if it could be had, from a single large pewter or wooden tankard, which was passed around from one to another at the table, after the fashion of the modern loving cup.
The household environment of those early Boston martyrs who had come 3,000 miles into the savage wilderness, to escape persecution, was as rude and as simple as their bill of fare.
Household furniture there was practically none, save a table of rough boards or planks, and enough treelegged stools to accommodate the members of the family. There were tablecloths of very coarse linen, but neither table divines nor forks, the fingers and spoons of either wood or iron meeting all the requirements of the then prevailing table etiquette; china was unknown, and as tea and coffee had never been heard of, the cream pitcher and the sugar bowl were not needed. Trenchers, usus or plates or platters, were made by scooping out a hollow in a piece of plank, about 10 or 12 inches square.
For sixty or seventy years, if not longer, the religious phase of Thanksgiving differed in no appreciable way from Sunday, from six to seven hours having been spent in church, divided between forenoon and afternoon. It is evident that in those days the dinner must have been decidedly a minor affair. It was not till 1721 that the afternoon service was abolished, against vigorous protests from some of the church members, although the change was brought about by fear of the smallpox, then prevalent in the town.
A third Thanksgiving was observed in the Massachusetts colony Nov. 11, 1621, to express the popular joy at the arrival of Gov. Winthrop's wife and another shipload of provisions from the old country. Whatever may have been the bill of fare of the average Boston family on that day, one family, at least, must have enjoyed a beautiful and variegated dinner, for the country people who poured into Boston on the arrival of the ship, a
few days before Thanksgiving, overwhelmed the governor and his wife with gifts of fat hogs, kids, poultry, venison and other kinds of game.
During the succeeding fifty years there appear to have been Thanksgivings averaging about once in two years, and appointed to mark some specific and remarkable event, as a victory in the Indian wars, or a happy solution of some troublesome problem, either religious or political. During all those years, and for many afterward, fast days were even more numerous than Thanksgivings, because the trials of the Puritans far exceeded their blessings.
In some instances there were serious differences between the general court, which then appointed Thanksgiving, the magistrates and the ministers—for the latter always advised in the matter—as to which was proper for the occasion, a thanksgiving or a fast. It is to be noted that the custom of appointing a Thanksgiving simply as an annual custom, and without regard to any specific or important occasion was almost unknown until well into the last century and was never habitual till within the last thirty years.
Indeed, the theory was advanced more than 200 years ago that a too frequent observance of Thanksgiving, and for insufficient cause, tended to make men "too carnal-minded."
A printed proclamation of that Thanksgiving, the earliest broadside of its kind known to be in existence now, is in the library of the Massachusetts historical society.
The general tone of the composition reminds one of another Thanksgiving, some years later, which was observed only in Boston, for the purpose of thanking heaven for sparing Boston, while Charlestown, across the river, was threatened with depopulation by the yellow fever.
A Boston menu of this period, which is in striking contrast with the early dinner of corned beef and mush, enumerates roast beef, turkey pie, boiled pork, fowls and tarts.
Plymouth, which was not yet united to the Massachusetts colony, had its Thanksgiving that year Aug. 17, five days after the killing of King Philip in Rhode Island, and it so happened that Major Church and his little band of heroes arrived in Plymouth just at the close of the Thanksgiving foronion service, bringing the great chief's head, which was borne by the major's Indian guide, who had himself shot Phillip.

A prominent Southern lady, Mrs.
Blanchard, of Nashville, Tenn., tells how she was cured of backache, dizziness, painful and irregular periods by the use of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
"Dear Mrs. PINKHAM—Gratitude compels me to acknowledge the great merit of your Vegetable Compound. I have suffered for four years with irregular and painful menstruation, also dizziness, pains in the back and lower limbs, and fitful sleep. I dreaded the time to come which would only mean suffering to me.
"Better health is all I wanted, and cure if possible. Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound brought me health and happiness in a few short months. I feel like another person now. My aches and pains have left me. Life seems new and sweet to me, and everything seems pleasant and easy.
"Six bottles brought me health, and was worth more than months under the doctor's care, which really did not benefit me at all. I am satisfied there is no medicine so good for sick women as your Vegetable Compound, and I advocate it to my lady friends in need of medical help."—Mrs. B. A. BLANCHARD, 422 Broad St, Nashville, Tennessee.
When women are troubled with irregular, suppressed or painful menstruation, weakness, leucorhona, displacement or ulceration of the womb, that bearing-down feeling, inflammation of the ovaries, backache, bloating (or fatulence), general debility, indigestion, and nervous prostration, or are beet with such symptoms as dizziness, faintness, lazitude, excitability, irritability, nervousness, sleeplessness, melancholy, "all-gone" and "warm-bell-like" feeling, blue and hopelessness, they should remember there is one tried and true remedy. Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound at once removes such troubles. Refuse to buy any other medicine, for you need the best.
