HOUSEKEEPING IN THE SUNNY SOUTH.

Having examined the proofsheets of
Housekeeping in the Sunny South, we
cheerfully testify to its value. 1t is well
gotten up and admirably arranged. One
striking feature is that the gifted author not
only gives large number of choice receipts,
but has reduced the cost of them by the
character and excellence of the ingredients.
The work is destined to have a large run
Southern World.
The Constitution takes pleasure in COM
mending Mrs. Tennent's Housekeeping in
the Sunny South" The gifted author is
lady of experience, culture and Judgment,
and an examination of the proofsheets of
her forthcoming work will convince anyone
that the book is exceptionally good Mrs.
Tennent has succeeded in producing book
that will be regarded as a necessity to every
careful housekeeper. 1t seems to cover the
entire field, and leaves nothing else to be
desired. Many of the receipts are now pub
lished for the first time, although they have
been popular in private circles for years.
These receipts have been collected with I'M
firing patience, and with view to the pro
duction of reliable wade mecum for eco
nomical housekeepers Mrs. Tennent's
book will be elegantly printed and substan-
italy bound, and will be offered at the low
price of two dollars. 1t deserves place in
every family, and the Constitutions readers
will make a good investment when they
purchase it. -4Haatd Constitution.

MISS LULU HURST.
Mystery OF Mysteries.

Miss Hurst gave her second performance
in Marietta on last Tuesday night. Nichols
Hall was crowded until its seating capacity
was exhausted. The people were curious as
well as incredulous and wanted to see for
themselves a display of a force by timid
pretty girl, which whirled men about regard
less of posture or strength
We have heretofore given in these col
umns lengthy description of this unknown
and unknowable force we could not ex-
plain it then and we can not do so now We
only know that she has such force in un-
measured quantity, beyond human ken to
perceive or human mind to comprehend. 1t
is astounding to ones senses to know where
this mystic force reposes, which you feel
communicated by the simple touch of Miss
Hurst's palms and finger tips, making things
inanimate pulsate and culver with life and
strength To limited extent we tested her
power, and we were clearly convinced that
there was no trick of legerdemain or muscu-
lar exertion on her part. When one took
hold of the chair, embracing it with strong
determination to hold it, it was gentle as
zephyr, but as soon as Miss Lulu touched it.
it soon became raging cyclone, growing
stronger and stronger, until the chair be-
came surcharged with such a quantity of
vitality, one lost his equilibrium and
went foundering and dancing over the stage
in tho uildacf
The effort of some half dozen men to
hold and press to the floor a chair in mid
air, proved an impossibility to the extent of
their combined physical strength The in
animate object had an irresistible tendency
upwards all the time An umbrella and
stick were brought into requisition. but they
only added to the mystery in the feats that
Laughing Lulu" so successfully performed.
The audience was kept amused and en-
joyed the entertainment with many hearty
laughs.
During an intermission the polite and gen
tlemanly manager Mr.. Atkinson, gave a
very pleasing recitation At the conclusion
Mr.. Hurst made few remarks as to the in
ability of eminent physicians and scientists
to solve or make. lucid to reasonable GER
tainty the source of this marvellous force,
bat all efforts at investigation have been baf
filed as completely as athletes have been
routed. AS to whether Miss Lulu has the
power to call up spirits from the Vastly deep
to aid her in her repelling force, is some
thing she is not conscious Of and father and
daughter scout the idea of spiritualsm.
They neither attribute it to electricity or
magnetism; they only know that sometimes
it is treacherous in its exertions and will
not do on some occasions what it has done
on others. 1t certainly battles science and
philosophy and leaves one as much bewild-
cred as ever, and the question still remains;
What is it?'
But one thing it is doing beyond disputa-
tion-it is filling Miss Lulu exchequer with
a power that sways the world-for money is
as potent factor in>the social as the COM
mercial world
