The dancing room was lighted with magnificent Japanese lanterns, andtthe sweet strains from the piano mada joyful the many guests.

A splendid lunel con was served which consisted of, fried spring chicken, cream potatoes, twin biscuits mixed pickles, ice cream, assorted cake, cold drinks. Mrs. Ashworth was the recipient of many handsome presents among which was a beautiful hand painted China plate by Mrs. August West. About twenty-five guests were present and all departed feeling joyful and hope Mrs. Ashworth will celebrate many more birthdays Encouraging Words for the Afro-American Owling to numerous requests we again publish the following from the pen of Miss Groves. It struck some of our readers very forcibly, and they lost no time in asking that it be run again: I am proud to say that through the mercy of God I was born an Afro-American, and on the farm. My very heart thrills with joy when I think of that being a true fact, and there is none other as happy. I was not born a slave as some who existed in this country over forty years ago or on the soil owned by the proud Anglo-Saxon race, who, today, we feel far their superior, but on the soil owned by an Afro-American. Can it be possible that we are to be deprived of our rights? Just think of it! With only a few years of freedom and a very little school education, where this people are now. With three cheers for joy, three cheers for peace and three cheers for liberty, I now say, "Let Aunt Hagar's flag wave on and on This land of America is too broad for me to corner myself off as a peanut before its first growth. The soil on which I now stand is too Advantages Splendid Location, Heathful Climate, Good Influences and Thorough Teachers. For Terms, Prices and Inducements Offered, write valuable not to be praised and the atmosphere is too pure not to breathe freely. I am glad to say that the Afro. American girls are turning their attention to the fact that they can not sleep any longer and that they also have a part to play in the business world and her superior can no longer be found. Anyone familiar with the conditions as they existed in this country forty years ago, is bound to admit, if he has any regard for truth, that the Afro-American woman has made rapid and substantial progress in the business world. There are more of our girls today who play their part in the domestic world than any other race. Their opportunities are greater; why? Not because they have had servants so as to ignore the truth of knowing how to do, but doing. Not understanding that she had the greatest drawback in the history of any people, the Afro-American woman, when first set free, began at once [where permitted] the work of trying to improve her condition. Not only over the washtub, in the streets of ignorance in the home of gossip or in the city of beauty, but she has learned to spread forth her arms in the garden spots, in the poultry yards, in the flower beds as an angel with flapping wings. How happy, how happy, Oh! how happy the Afro-American woman must be. She is found in the homes of the rich and the poor, trying to master the problems as a domestic woman. She is skilled as an artist, scamstress and milliner, stonographer and bookkeeper, songstress, and, the greatest of all, we find one wlio has gained her intellectual powers and mastered the problems of life—a domestic wife. Why should we waste all of our time thinking of the opportunities of our superiors. Can we not improve our own conditions? Life is too short to waste away in dreams while others are laboring for higher grounds Don't think for one moment that it is useless to try, but as one poet has said, "If at first you don't succeed, try, try again." The Afro-American woman has not only made rapid and substantial progress along the common walks of life as an ordinary laborer, but she has entered the learned professions and mastered their most difficult and perplexing problems with a facility that has astonished her friends and confounded her intelligent and self-respecting enemies. Just think of it! In less than for.yive or fifty years with nothing to start upon, with no kind hand to guide, with no loving voice to admonish, but almost ev rything to oppose her, the Afro-American woman has continued to progress along moral, religious, intellectual, industrial social and financial lines Fathers and mothers of the Afro American race: Are you not proud of your daughters, who can entertain you as vocalists, with sweet voices uttered from the sweetest lips of any human being. At the piano, not only as a musician, but as an instructor, in your office, she is found as your stenographer and bookkeeper. In your home from the kitchen to the library, and even in the agricultural business, now, has the Afro-American woman any superior? No, no, never. MISS IDA MAY GROVES, Edwardsville, Kaup. AT REST.

The stimulating effect upon Negro business enterprise which this League has been exerting under the direction of Dr. Booker T. Washington and his official staff has been clearly seen and appreciated and, in part, explains the League's constantly increasing membership. The League welcomes to its membership every man and woman of the race who is engaged or interested in some worthy Negro business enterprise and only a nominal charge of $2 per year is expected from each member, which membership fund is used in prosecuting the work and extending the influence of the organization; this membership fee of $2 also procures for each delegate a badge which entitles the delegate to a seat upon the floor of the convention as well as free admission and service at the annual banquet and at all of the other social functions provided by the Local Committee for the benefit of delegates The central location of Louisville, the special railroad rates that have been secured for all delegates (a fare and a third, plus 50 cents), the excellent program which is being arranged, and the many social features and other attractions which have been provided for all, indicate an unusually large attendance. The officers of the Local Negro Business League of Louisville are working energetically to make this the bouncer meeting of the laureate and the generous provisions already made or the reception and entertainment of delegates and visitors. Justifies the proba tion that a those who attend will be treated to genuine Kentucky hospitality. What promises to be an especially unique and interesting feature on the program is known as "Mississippi Day", which means that one entire day will be given over to the State of Mississippi, whose delegates will discuss and illustrate the phenomenal progress that has been made by Negro men in that State since the emancipation of the slaves. The program is nearly completed and is being carefully prepared by Mr. Emmett J. Scott, Corresponding Secretary of the National League, who has just returned from laboria; printed copies will soon be available. Aside from the program proper, an old fashioned Kentucky battle we has been arranged and the Amul Banquet will be held in one of the largest lots of the city. The Louisville City Council toward defying certain promises connected with the other of the body, and on Saturday Aug. 22 at 1 o'clock excursion to Minneapolis to miles from Louisville), will be conducted by the Louisville Negro League for the benefit of the delegates, all of whom will doubtless be glad to visit what is undoubtedly conceded to be one of the greatest wonders of the world.

Death Has Claimed One of Kansas City's Most Delightful Women-Wife of Prof. J. S. Moten, of Lincoln Institute. "Were death denied to live would not be life." In a community like Kansas City, where the average of intelligence is high, and where good and lovable women for years have made their presence and their worth felt by an appreciative public, death is certainly deprived of much of its decadent sting. Even the more fortunate and blessed ones like the late Mrs. J. Moten, whose home and environments offer the strongest inducement for one traveling to life, happily realize that in life "people live beyond the grave" and "their tender feminine nature have ready sign to the inevitable. No lower moves humanity so readily as death. than the last salute over the remains of a deceased companion, who in life was more than a wife to her husband, dearer than the average child to parent, closer and more confidential to an only sister, charming and more lovable to friends and neighbors than the average woman, there is no duty more affectingly penetrating, teaching and moving our souls as no other agency is known to affect humanity, From girlhood student days till she became the wife of the man who, of all loved her most, she was known and admired by all as Miss Cora Nico. After her marriage few could resist the habit of addressing her by her original name. Mrs. Moton was a Canadian by birth, but accompanied her parents to the States at a tender age. She was educated in Missouri schools, having finished at Summer High School of St. Louis and Lincoln Institute. An cloctionist of exceptional ability, she was given the honor --- --- Kield, LL.

FLOUR Ketley's Best Beat all the Rest Kelley Milling Co., of representing Lincoln Institute at the World's Fair, where her recitation was considered a masterful effort. When the late C. H. J. Taylor was appointed recorder of deeds at Washington, D. C, Miss Nero was made his private secretary, and in that capacity met Prof. J. S. Moton, whose wife she became later. She accompanied her husband to Schuyl, Mt. where he was appointed to the presidency of one of the State's most prominent schools. In 1902 she accompanied her husband to Jefferson City, where he was appointed to a chair in Lincoln Institute. In Jefferson City, Mt. it was known and loved by everyone. Her home was over a refuge for the cheerless. While she was raised an Episcopanion, in the absence of that church she was one of Jefferson City's most active and faithful church workers usually in the A. M. B. denomination. She was also active in financial and other women's social work. While she had been a long sufferer, her high spirit decived many of her friends, who never supposed she was in half so much danger. Fond as she was of her husband, rather than detain him from his duty at the summer school of Linco'm Institute she persuaded him to return after he had accompanied her to Kansas City, and it was not his fortune to converse with her in her national state again. The man memory from admitting to the clates is indeed not on the other offer City. I did not the Court. J. by Mrs. W. Tuppe, also of Delphoson City, on W. Club; Mesdames St. J. Coles and Amme Walker of Kansas City, on behalf of local courts and clubs. Funeral services were conducted at Allen Chapel, A. M. E. church. While Mrs. Moten was formally an Episcopaleon, shortly after her marriage she K. C., U.S.A. Joined the Methodist church, in order that he rehurch work might be more congenial to her husband's work as president of a denominational school. This, however, was not at his suggestion. The strong attachment of her mother to the Episcopalean church led the family to ask the Rev. Father Willett, rector of St. Augustin, to conduct the services both at the church and at the grave. Fitting and touching remarks were made also at both places by Rev. Smith, her former pastor at Jefferson City. Surviving Mrs. Moten are her husband, Prof. J., S. Moten; her mother, Mrs. M. R. Nero; a sister, Mrs. Victoria Hemdon, whom it is needless to say have the full sympathy of all who have known them. At 2:30 the procession of twenty carriages left for the cemetery. The beautiful floral offerings, conservatively estimated at $75, were borne in a separate carriage, occupied by Mrs. D. N. Crostia-waite and Miss Mand Olson. On entering beautiful Highland cemetery it was immediately observed that the family lot was one of the most desirable of the many choice restations located but a few feet from the chapel in course of construction and almost directly between two churning shaded trees, which give the mound the appearance of a pleasant resting place. The approach to this grave, as is the case with all graves in Highland cemetery, gave one the impression that he was notating the spot where some anniversary ceremony was to take place. There was no unsightly clay—it had all been neatly covered with leaves and shrubbery. On close inspection it was observed that the grave had been carefully lined with white muslin, another successful effort at removing an undesirable sight of a grave, especially appreciable to the bereaved family. Everything was so uniformly different that the general appearance diverted attention from the sadness of the occasion for in truth it had the effect of almost anything but a funeral. This remarkable change provoked comment from practically everyone of the seventy-five or more persons who were present, many of whom were profuse in expressing their satisfaction. Here in this choice and sightly spot were placed the remains of one of Kansas City's most refined, most congenial and lovable women. In life it was her pleasure to number among her friends practically all who had known her even from her girlhood days. It is perfectly proper that her family should do as they did, place the remains away with that tenderness of care which her life so eminently deserved.

RHEUMATISM. Those who suffer from rheumatism assert that it is the most painful of diseases, indeed if you are a victim of it's tortures you can probably testify as to it's agonizing pains. Rheumatism is directly attributed to great quantities of uric acid in the blood; this acid being caused by various dietic and hygienic errors is found in the blood of nearly everyone who follows our modern dietary. Uric acid circulates in the blood and it's minute crystals have a tendency to gather in the joints, this crystallization or gathering causing enlarged joints, various deformities, stiffness and great pain. It makes the skin dry, harsh and yellow and hastens old age. Exposure to cold, wet feet, etc., nearly always bring on an attack. Many people suffer for years, few realize how easily rheumatism can be cured, due largely to the fact that medical authorities differ widely as to what constitutes the correct treatment. The best treatment is the use of a good local application to reduce the swelling and relieve the pain and internal remedies to purify the blood and free the system of uric acid. Snake Oil Liniment, extremely penetrating and soothing meets every requirement for local treatment, while Snake-Root Tablets are the perfect tonic and blood purifier. Snake Oil Liniment. Is a combination of Snake Oil and other valuable remedies. Snake Oil from which it gets it's name has long been prized because of its penetrating qualities and it's power to impart an elasticity to the human tissue. Rattle-Snake Oil is especially valuable and is most used although Mr. Carwford obtains huge cobras, pythons and boa-constrictors from the snake farms of Australia where they are raised for exhibition purposes and for medicinal value of their oils and virus. Hundreds of people will testify as to its great value in the treatment of rheumatism sprains, bruises, frost-bites, etc., penetrating to the seat of pain giving instant relief, lubricating the joints, reducing the swelling and preventing knotty deformities. Compound Snake Root Tablets Are a combination of purely vegetable remedies made after the formula of an old Doctor, who was noted for his ability to quickly cure rheumatism. Alocs, one of the ingredients, is known to the medical profession as one of the best mild laxatives; Cascara, another, acts as a tonic to the bowel muscles and Podophyllin is the best liver stimulant known, far superior to Calomel, while Snake Root is a mild tonic to the nerves and kidneys and the enemy of uric acid. These and a number of other equally valuable ingredients make these Tablets never failing. By acting on the liver, kidney and bowels they purify the blood, freeing it of uric acids and other poisons. Too often people resort to the use of mercury, salicylates and other strong medicines which not only ruin the stomach, but add another poison to the blood. Indigestion, Dyspepsia and Constipation Are closely associated maladies, which are almost universal, there ebing few people who are not constipated at times, even if they are able to escape Indigestion and Dyspepjsla. Many times when the doctors pronounce a death due to heart-failure, it is in reality due to an attack of Acute Indigestion. Those who have suffered with Heart-Burn will little wonder that the heart stops beating when subjected to the more severe strain of an attack of Acute Indigestion. Do not subject yourself to an attack of heart-failure when the digestive organism is upset or run down; one Snake the stomach and soon corrects the trouble. Root Tablet taken before each meal tone Do you realize what Constipation means? Do you know that it causes the retention of poisonous waste matter in the system-poisoning the blood and making you us susceptible to all diseases Medical authorities even state that near y all disease can be traced to this poisoning by Constipation. A century ago our fore fathers knew little of Constipation. They were more active, more in the open air and ate simpler food—so different from the present day—our modern offices and factories and complicated foods. So we must have something to take the place of their natural agencies. By taking one Snake Root Tablet before each meal and one before going to bed you can soon rout the most stubborn case of Constipation. Crawford's Drug Store.
