enough of the star in the first
part of the program, only one

made up in the act given from
Elotow'a "Martha," where Miss
Brehany appeared to great ad-
vantage in the title role and
where her rendering of '-The
Last Rose of Summer" was alone
worth the price of admission.
While every member of the com-
pany is an artist, the fine work
of Mr. Sauvlet at the piano and

worthy of especial commenda-

People overlooked the import-
ance of permanently beneficial
effects and were satisfied with
transcient action; but now that it
i3 generally known that Syrup of
Figs will permanently overcome
habitual constipation, well-in-
formed people will not buy other
laxatives, which act for a time,
but finally injure the system.
Buy the genuine, made by the

number of their friends and the
friends of the club at their cozy
residence, corner Third and Jack-
son streets, Thursday evening,
the occasion being complimentary
to Miss Mabel Flanagan of Aus-
tin and Miss Jessamal Callaway
of Galveston. Tho decorations
in the front parlor were pink
morning glories and mistletoe,
with the bay alcove banked with
palms and ferns. The second
parlor,, .was a profusion of red
japoniea, with streamers of ivy
and clusters of mistletoe. Punch
was served in the hallway by lit-
tle Misses Gladys Vinson and
Alix Bettison, who wore dainty
and becoming gowns and did the
honors with the grace of maturity
and the charm and cordiality of
childhood. Mrs. Bettison, Miss
Flanagan and Miss Callaway re
ueived at the door. In addition
to the card games, the evening
embraced a musical program to
which Mrs. L. J. Lockett, the
Misses Becker, Misses Tristram
and Flanagan were contributors.
Miss Ada Becker played several
selections on her favorite instru
ment, the violin. Miss Bertha
Becker contributed a piano solo,
and vocalism made up the bal-
ance of the program. Miss
Flanagan's singing was a revela-
tion to all present, even to those
who had heard her on previous
occasions. She was in especially
good voice, and the applause and
compliments that followed her
efforts were proof that the au-
dience was in complete harmony
with the music. The young
ladies present were at their best
in beautiful evening gowns. No
more pleasant and attractive
company has assembled in Bren-
ham to do homage to the honorees
of the evening, who were gems
in the exquisite setting of beauty
around them.
The prizes in the euohre con-
test were four in number.
First Prize for ladies, a bisque
figure, representing a jolly little
Cupid seated on the back of a
Pte-
Ladies booby, a pocket mir-
ror.
First prize for gentlemen, an
ash tray, representing four aces
and a pipe.
