The home of our host happily illustrated the
result of this method, as was revealed in a
tour of inspection.
We would especially call the attention of our
farmers to the great advantage resulting from
large amount of feed secured from small
piece of well-grown sowed corn keeping his
woll-selected dairy of % COWS in fine condition,
with no diminutiOn in milk production, not
withstandinR the shortage of pasture from the
protracted drught. Let all try it and be con-

Miss -Youse as an Eiocusloalst.

"A
eCHURcHvILLE, July 81 Mr.. and Mrs. James
Lee gavesa delightful musical and dramatic
entertainment at their residence, near Church
vile, on Friday evening Of last week. The
parlors were tastefully decorated with grow
ing vines, ferns, wild carrot and geraniums.
Instrumental and vocal music was creditably
rendered by Miss Alice Colburn and Miss
Mary l.. Archer. The main feature of the en-
tertainment was the recitation given by Miss
Alice Youse, b. E., graduate of "Shaftesbury
College of Expression" Baltimore. So
thoroughly has Miss YOuse studied the art of
expression and imbibed its principles that
art ceases to be art whether she personate the
dainty blushing maiden in "a Valentine Ro
NANCE" describes the roar OF thunder In
=. tSchiller's Battle" or interprets the language
or music as mellow Ruby Played" She is
singularly gifted, possessing magnetic pow
or by which she thrills the hearts of the hear
ers, holding their spirits in touch with her
own as she runs the gamut of human emotions
Miss Youse is versatile, handling with equal
success tho dramatic, pathetic and sublime, as
shown In her recital of ssThe Whistling Regi-
ment, y In which are combined patriotism,
tenderness and womanly heroism, while her
childish impersonatioR and eoquettish render
ing of Whitcomb ,Riley's inimitablel poems
is captivating. 1t is difficult to determine
whether she excels in facial expression, mod
ulation of voice or grace Of action and atti-
tude. This was strongly exemplifed In her
rendition of what is termed the "Shaftesbury
Senior Styles of Emotion" such as agony,
Joy, hate, love, regret, peace, &c, passing
from one to the other with the swiftpess Of
thought -

constitutional disease, and therefore requires
constitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure,
