1t is very human to wish TO know
about things we are not familiar with,
even if we never expect to do them
and how many have not had their
curiosity aroused by the terms used by
stock brokers, and wished to know
their significance? A simple explana-
ton of them is seldom given; but in
"a Woman's Romance in Wall Street"
published in the January number of
Demorests Family Magazine, one is
taken down into the haunts of the
"bulls' and "bears," and may learn
all about quits and "calls" and
spreads" and margins" and chuck
bishops" and the other mysteries that
go to make up the world renowned
region known as Wall Street. The
article is clearly written and very
fully illustrated, and reading it is
quite equal to spending a day in that
dominion of Mammon. among the
Nurses" is another specially interest
ing article illustrated with portraits of
nurses from the different hospitals,
by which one may learn the distinctive
uniforms. Russell Sage, Ex-Judge
Noah Davis, Lille Devereux Blake,
Jennie de In NJ. Lozier, NJ. D., and
Elizabeth Cady Stanton give their opin-
ions on Woman Suffrage, which are
accompanied by their portraits. There
are several excellent stories, a splendid
paper for "Our Girls" entitled "Berry-
Picking Immortals," and fine paper
on "The Care of the Complexion" all
the latest "Society Fads" are chronicled
and every one of the excellent depart
ments is full to overlooking with inter
esting and instructive matter. Besides,
there are over 800 illustrations. includ-
ing a unique New Year card, and the
portraits of the competitors for the
Demorest Baby Prize are irresistible.
This is q sample of what the subscrib-
ers to this ideal Family Magazine get

THIS is the NerdlCt pronounced py
all who were present at the Con-
cert Wednesday Evening.
The audience which greeted Prof.
Sturgis and his singing class at their
concert in Central Hall on Wednesday
evening was not large but certainly
appreciative. Every number was good
and the evening was pronounced II
decided success. The first on the pro-
gam was Skating Glee, by the class,
which showed training in each voice.
"Kind Words" by number of the
younger girls was very pretty indeed.
A double quartette followed, called
"Village of the Vale," by Miss Ellis,
Mrs. Cough, Addie Palmer, Myrtle
Kelley, Messrs. Palmer, Manley, Drum
mond and Manley, which was heartily
received, deserving of all the credit it
got. A solo by Gertrude Bearss,
douglas Gordon" was beautifully
rendered. Next Mr.. Sturgis gave an
example of chow and what he taught
in his school," the scholars responding
very quickly showing excellent tuition.
Lulu High then favored the audience
with a violin solo, "Home Sweet
Home" accompanied by Mabel Moore
on the piano. "When my Ship comes
in from over the Sea-" a quartette by
Mrs. Wallace, Rada Rapley, Messrs.
James Wallace and G. r. Holden was
very difficult piece but finely exc
cuted. During the few minutes be-
tween the two parts, the Prof. spoke
of organizing another class after the
holidays and paper was passed
around for signers. About 60 names
were received which guarantees sec
ond course of instruction. The BEN
eft all derived from the first Is plain.
recitation from Rev. Harrison came
next, "Curfew must not ring tonight"
This is an old piece but we never
heard it so finely rendered before; to
say the least, it was grand. A Christ
mas anthem by the class was sung with
much expression. II have wandered
far from the old Home," solo by
Leah Darcy aided by Mabel Moore,
Messrs Wallace and Holden was very
sweet and nicely rendered. Mabel
Moore followed this with piano solo
which was well received. "Our Baby"
by the little folks, brought down the
house. "Distant Chimes" ladies
chorus was beautiful and reflected
much credit upon them. A comic
reading by Mrs. DR.. Gowan was well
received. Another solo by Gertrude
Bearss, Queen of the Night, was
encored and she gave "The Spider and
the Fly" Miss Bearss is sure of IL
royal welcome always in Yale. She
has grand voice with full control of
it. yachting Glee" by the class was
fine. A comic quartette, o. p. r. A.,
given by Mrs. Wallace, Rada Rapley,
Messrs. Cooper and Holden was en-
Enthusiastically received. This ended
the program and all felt that Prof.
Sturgis was most competent in
structor as evidenced by the great im-
provement in voices. We have great
hopes of Yale yet. There are voices
here that will be heard of some time,
and outside of our own town.

well-conceived, admirably thought-out
productions, specially adapted to
those aspiring to success as teachers.

man, passed vote of thanks to Prof.
Smith. He was cordially congratu-
lated by all who had the pleasure of
