Mrs. Willebrandt, it is well known, holds the highest professional office of a fany woman in the United States, that of assistant United States attorney general, and was here in company with Cong. Phil D. Swing in a political meeting yesterday afternoon.

Mrs. Harold Covey, of Dale-ave., is a personal friend of the honored guest, having taught with her, and was seated upon her right at luncheon. Mrs. Agnes Meseramith, of Buena Park, and Mrs. S. C. Hartmanft were also close friends. The luncheon was an elaborate four-course affair, during which Mrs. Willebrandt, told of her activities in her position in the capital, which includes income tax inspection and details arising in connection with prohibition cases. She told of personally signing 1,800 letters last month which she gave individual examination. Mrs. Albert Launer, of Fullerton, former president of the Ebell Club, introduced Mrs. Willebrandt, who is accompanied in her California speaking tours by Miss Falconer, of the State Bar Ass'n., and a long time friend.

The parents and two daughters, Miss Anna Marie and Miss Elizabeth, drove to the ranch home of Mr. and Mrs. Hans Madlener, on Orangewood ave., early in the evening, and although there was an air of festivity in all the proceedings, the honoree was entirely unsuspicious, and until auto load after auto load arrived she did not realize the affair was for her. A dip in the plunge at the Madlener home was a form of amusement thoroughly enjoyed after which cake, ice cream, lemonade and other light refreshment was served at the table out of doors. Miss Faye Ballou was among the guests from Anaheim, others being from nearby communities. Seek Arts Exhibits Mesdames W. B. McConnell and H. M.

The card party given by the Woman's club at the club house or Friday was a social success tha there was not as large a turnout as had been expected. About 50 persons attending.

At the card party some of these so-called "clever" boys entered the kitchen door and stole the cakes which were to have been served with th ice cream as refreshments. Unfortunately (for the boys) a neighbor saw them leaving and the ladies have a pretty good idea who were the guilty parties.

SUCH PAINS AS THIS WOMAN HAD Two Months Could Not Turn in Bed. Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound Finally Restored Health Seattle, Washington.—“I had dragging pains first and could not stand on my feet, then I had chills and fever and such pains in my right side and a hard lump there. I could not turn myself in bed and could not sleep. I was this way for over two months, trying everything any one told me, until my sister brought me a bottle of Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound. I took it regularly until all the hard pains had left me and I was able to be up and do my work again. The hard lump left my side and I feel splendid in all ways. I know of many women it has helped.”—Mrs. G. RICHARDSON, 4640 Orcas St., Seattle, Washington. This is another case where Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound brought results after “trying everything any one told me” had failed. If you are suffering from pain, nervousness and are always tired; if you are low spirited and good for nothing, take Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound. You may not only relieve the present distress, but prevent the development of more serious trouble. SANTA FE LEASE SANTA FE LEASE, Aug. 24. (Spl) Mr. and Mrs. C. H.
