THURSDAY APRIL 28 1898.
—t - Women nowa-
h ~ days do not have
— TN to use a stream of water
for a looking-glass. They have modern
mirrors that will tell them very promptly
whether their beauty is fading. A wom-
an’s beauty fades very rapidly if she is
troubled with some derangement of the
distinctly feminine organism. Ignorance
or carelessness in this respect frequently
causes great suffering and irregularity in
after life. Little irregularities and weak-
nesses in girlhood should be looked upon
promptly and properly treated at ones.
Mothers cannot be too conscientious in
this respect and cannot throw aside the
prudery that is so prevalent upon this point
too soon. Every young woman should
know something about her own physical
make-up and the importance to her rature
of her local as well as general health. A
woman who suffers from weaknesses pe-
culiar to her sex will rapidly lose her
beauty her general health her amiability
and her usefulness and capability as a wife
and housekeeper. Dr. Pierce’s Favorite
Prescription promotes regularity of all fem-
inine functions gives sturdy health to the
distinctly feminine organism and prepares
it to meet the trials of wifehood and moth-
erhood. The “Favorite Prescription” is
not a cure-all. It is intended for but one
class of disorders and is good for no other.
Taken during the period of gestation it
makes parturition easy and banishes the
discomforts of the expectant months. All
good medicine dealers sell it.
“ I wish to express my thanks for the good I
have received from Dr. Pierce's Favorite Pre-
scription.’’ writes Mrs. K. Scovill of Bolton
Stephenson Co. Ills. “ I have used it at differ-
ent times for the last eight years. It is the best
medicine for expectant mothers. I never tried
it for that until my last babv. I had been very
bad almost helpless. I could not get out of bed
alone or even turn over. I-ast December I com-
menced taking the ’ Favorite Prescription' and
could soon get in and out of bed as well as at any
time. On March 29th I gave birth to an eleven
pound boy without pain and have since been as
well and healthy as I ever was.”

THE SAENGERFEST.
Words of Praise For All The San An-
tonio Singers From Galveston
People.
The Saengerfest delegates from San
Antonio returned today and all report
having had a very jolly time while in
Galveston.
In the Galveston News is the follow-
ing comment of the first night’s con-
cert:
Generally the singing was grand.
All the state societies acquitted
themselves with great merit as did
the soloists. The chorus filled the
hall too full of sound for the audience
to get the full effect of the magnificent
work that the most of them did. In
the work of the individual societies
the details were most observable. • • •
The San Antonio society called
Frohsinn rendered “Der Morgan im
Walde” very creditably and drew
forth loud applause from the audience.
The society possesses several very ex-
cellent voices and did very good
work. • • •
The Deutsche Maennerchor of San
Antonio sang “Noch Sind Diet Ateg
der Rosen.” The voices in this
very organization are strong
and yet very sweet. They are
also very well trained as was eviden-
ced in the staccato measures. Among
♦ he voices is a fine tenor such as is sel-
dom found and for which there is
much demand in professional work.
Mrs. Bessie Bell Andrews of San An-
tonio made a very fine impression in
her selection from "Lucia di Lammer-
moor.” Hers is not a strong voice
but it is remarkably sweet and attrac-
tive and carries well filling every part
of the hall with ease. She has her
voice under perfect control and can
trill a bird as was shown in the en-
core to which she responded. She was
the reicpient of several bouquets. * * *
Mrs. Alonzo Millet of San Antonio
became very popular with the au-
dience and justly so for she is an ex-
cellent singer. Her selection was the
“Jewel Song” from "Faust.” In it
she appeared to great advantage
showing a full sweet clear voice of
great power and Under excellent con-
trol. Some of her very high notes
were taken with effort but wijh this
exception her voice Is a very attrac-
tive one. In an encore number she
appeared even to better advantage
than in the first number. It was a
laughing song very short but before
she quit the stage she had the audience
laughing with her in sympathy. • • •
The concert was closed with a selec-
tion by a chorus of all the San Anton-
io societies to which there was orches-
tral accompaniment. The work of this
chorus would have been more appre-
ciated had it not been the last number
on the program. It was one of the
best*hings of the evening in the way
of chorus work.
There will be a matinee this after-
noon in which the orchestra Mrs.
Fisher-Baxter the Houston Frohsinn
Mrs. Bessie Bell Andrews the Austin
Saengerbund and Miss Inez Grenell!
will appear. The concert tonight will
be participated in by Mrs. Millet Mrs.
Andrews. Miss Grlnelli the Houston
Saengerbund and Mr. A. J. F. Parker
of Galveston. There will be a great
deal of chorus work at both concerts.
