The Harp RecitaI.

The harp recital at Reception Hall last even.
ing by Aptommss. the famous Welsh harper,
was listened to by a small but cultivated and
very appreciative audience audience which
showed its delight in the frequency of encores.
Those who attended the Amy & Navy course
last season were gratified by recognition OF
the brilliant and certain touch, and rapid, clear
and delicate execution which characterized his
playing at the Swedish Q1artette concert; and
those who heard him last night for the first
time were surprised as well as delighted, espec-
tally at the fFryor aud spirit which he gave the
Welsh national melody, 1.-THE March of the
HarleGh Men" 10 the duet he was seconded
By Miss Shaw. who sustained her part admira-
bly,, displaying correct method, sincerity of
style aud singulally refined execution. Her
hand and arm seem made for the harp. The
duet was encored as were the solos. In every
instance except one, in answer to the recalls
the selections were repeated-a commendable
practice. Miss Dodwell, who appeared twice
in 'Ja, du Dist mein' and the "Three Fishers. y
has fine, rich contralto voice, of much power
and volume-a voice Of rare promise and ad-
mrsbly managed. Both her songs provoked
hearty recalls. to which she properly responded
with repetitions. This was the programmes:

1t is now an acknowledged fact that CoNsUMP-
TON CAN BE CURED 1t hae been cured In very
great number of cases (some Of them apparently
desperate ones) by Schenck's Pulmonic Syrup Alone
and in others by the same medicine in connection
with Schencks Sea Weed Tonicland Mandrake Pills,
one or both, according to the requirements of the
case.
The old suppostion that Consumption is incura-
be-" for many years deferred Physicians from
attempting to find remedy for that disease, and
patients afflicted with 1t reconcled themselves to
death without an effort being made to save them
from doom which was considered inevitable.
DR.. Schenck himself was supposed at one time to
be at the very gate of death, his Physicians having
pronounced his case hopeless and abandoned him to
his fate: he was cured by the aforesaid medicines
and afterwards enjoyed uninterrupted good health
for more than forty years. Thousands Of people
have used Dr. Schenck's preparations with the same
remarkable success.
Schenck's Almanac containing thorough treatise
on Consumption, Liver Complaint, Dyspepsia, &C.,
can be had gratis of any druggist, or of j. H.
Schenck g. Son, Philadelphia. Full directions for
the use of Schenck's medicines accompany each
package.
Schenck's Pulmonic Syrup, Sea Wood Tonic, and
Mandrake Pills are for sale by all druggists.

the morning. The safe, which is an old affair,
and has been kept in use against the repeated
protests of the agent, Mr. Tibbetts, was found
locked, but the false key remained in the lock.
A package containing some $4,000 had been re-
ceiVed the evening previous, directed to the
First National Bank of Dexter; there were
also other packages of money in the safe and
some loose bills, the private property of Mr..

tablish a night watch, a necessity and luxury
which has been omitted for five years last past
