All's Well That Ends Well
You must not despair . when
everything seems to go against
you. There was people who lost
everything, even all hope, when
suddenly a bright ray of luck
struck them, the seTf-confldence
returned and with it new love of
life and new hope. If a chronic
sickness troubles you, which
seems to withstand all medicines,
you must never give up. If it is
a sickness of the digestive organs
and you have not tried Triner's
American Elixir of Hitter Wine,
do not despair. Try this remedy,
because it often cured just such
people that believed their sickness
to be incurable. It will gently
stimulate the organs to activity,
strengthening them at the same
time. As soon as the digestive
organs will resume their work,
your condition will improve. Use
this remedy in loss of appetite, in
nervousness, exhaustion, anemia,
constipation, colic and cramps,
headache, backache and all stom

June is not only the month of

Lorenz, of Sheldon, Iowa, as best
man. Little Miss Rosa, sister of
the bride, was flower girl. The
bride was beautifully appareled
in a white satin wedding gown and
carried a shower bouquet of white
roses. The groom wore a busi
ness suit of the customary black.
The event was a very happy one
and attended by a large number
of relatives and friends of the
bride and groom. A four-course

has a host of friends in the city.
The bride is the beautiful and ac
complished daughter of Mrs.
Frank Pribyl of Odell and pos
sesses a large circlo of friends in
that community, who aro pleased
at the announcement of her mar
riage with Mr. Lorenz.
The happy couple departed at
M0 p. in. over the Burlington for

future home.

most enjoyable surprise parly
yesterday afternoon, given by a
number of her lady friends, mem
bers of the Frauenverein society.
There were twelve of the ladies in
the company and when they canio
in on Mrs. F.biuger she was some
what surprised, as they had not
informed her of their intentions.
The twelve ladies in the company
had a most delightful time, tho
hurrying moments being most
enjoyably spent in social con
versation, games and other
amusements. The ladies had
brought the necessary fixings for
n fine luncheon, which, during the
course of the afternoon entertain
ment, and at a convenient hour,
was served, being most thorough
ly enjoyed by all. At a late hour
the ladies departed for their
homes, having spent an afternoon

Omaha Woman Honored.
The Plallsiuoulh friends of
Mrs. Knuiiii , Manchester of
Omaha will lie pleased to note
that yesterday at Rochester, P.
Y., she was elected to succeed her
self as supreme guardian of the
Woodman Circle, which position
she has most elllciently tilled for
the past twelve years. Tho Na
tional Economist, a Des Moines
(Iowa) journal, devoted to insur

their April number, says of Mrs.
Manchester:
"Ono of the most noted and
capable women in fraternal insur
ance circles in this country is
Mrs. Emilia U. Manchester, su
preme guardian of the Woodmen
Circle, the ladies' auxiliary of the
Woodmen of the World, Omaha,
Neb. Mrs. Manchester lias been
the head of the order for twelve
years. When she assumed the
reins of management she found
the order in a failing condition,
but has built it up into a member
ship of 1)5,000 with u surplus or
.$1.!00,000. The executive ability
of this woman is wonderful. Sin
handles with perfect ease all tin
great machinery of the order, ami
the growth it, has experienced un
der her management is a compli
ment few women in America have
been able lo merit. Her capacity
for work and her powers of en
durance are marvelous. Making
long trips, and attending exciting
conventions, she manifests
strength and endurance far in ex
cess of those many years her
junior. She is always happy and
pleasant in her appearance,
dignilled und courteous in her
manner, and wins friends and nd
niirers by her plain and sub
stantial methods. Mrs. Manchest
er has always taken a deep in
terest in public affairs, and few
women are belter in funned on
current political and social topics
than herself."
