In answer to Roll-Call, quotations
from Southey *s writings were
given. Mrs J. L. Cilley opened
the program with an interesting
account of "The Derwefltwater
Section," that fairy region where
Southey lived forty years. Then
Mrs. D. M. Litaker presented
very attractively the life - and
works of Southey noted for his
versatility in both poetry and
prose. Mrs. W. L. Abernethy
and Mrs. Chadwick sang one of
Mendelssohn's beautiful duets
"I would that my love," Follow
ing this Mrs. Chadwick gave a
resume of Coleridge's "Bio
graphia Liter aria," considered
"the greatest book of criticism
in-English." Two favorite trios
were sung with appreciation by
Miss Ramsay, Mesdames W. L.
Abernethy and J. L. Cillley
These songs without accorapani
ment were: "Oft in the stilly
night" and''Drink to me only
with thine eyes." Mrs. C. M.

t DO YOU ENJOY EATING
ft
5. Or Does Everything You Eat
Distress You?
Experts declare that the reason
*" Btomach disorders are so common In
k this oountry is due to hasty and
d careless habits of eating. Stomach
ig troubles and run-down conditions also
usually go together.
John Lind, of Oneonta, N. 7., says:
"I have been troubled with a bad
stomach trouble for fifteen years, and
became so weak that I could hardly
walk or do any work. My appetite
iwas very poor, and it seemed impos
sible to get any relief. Since taking
two bottles of Vinol I find that it has
already made a remarkable improve
ment In my health; my digestion Is
much stronger, and I have gained in
weight"
Vlnol makes weak stomachs strong
because it strengthens and tones up
the weakened, tired and overtaxed
nerves of the digesUve organs. Vlnol
is easily assimilated by the weakest
Btomachs, and is delicious to the taste.
{Try a bottle of Vlnol with the
understanding, that your money will
be returned it ft does not help you.
