Morning STAR stll Alive.


Last Friday was a gala day for
our little village, it being the oc-
casion of an entertainment by the
Philomathean Literary Society.
The young men had erected a tenn
porary stage about six inches above
the rostrum for the students and
musicians and decorated it with
evergreens, no flowers being ayaila>
hle, which made a'decided improves
ment, as it gave them better com,
mand of the audience. The house
was well arranged to preserve or,
der. No aisles were leftin the mid
die. The room was well lighted
and during the whole time the best
cf order prevailed. There was no
standing on the benches and scarceS
ly word spoken above a low whis-
per.
AT an early hour the people came
packing in from all quarters ex.
pecting the exercises to begin at
5 o'clock. The Society waited till
nearly 6 o'clock for the Secretary
to bring the programme. The bell
was rung at $40 and again at G
o'clock, but no Secretary. A new
programme was then made out and
the entertainment was opened by
the audience uniting in singing,
"What a friend we have in Je-
sus," Miss Sallie Walker al the or.
gan. Rev. w. A. Sherfey then
led in prayer, after which the regu-
lar programme was .:called by the
President, S. T. Wilcox, to which
all responded promptly. A. G.
Crosswhite made few remarks
concerning the misplaced pro-
grammes, disappointment in mu.
sic, &c.

acuralgia for over twenty years. He has
lad seventeen operations performed on

emerge. But this never did him any good;
the most excruCiating pain continued
without the least interruption. lie often

20 relieve him. They finally advised him
to consult Drs. Hartman y Miller, At the

while now he can blow his nose and wipe
