COL. COPELAND,
at IL a. m, lectured to a handsome
audience on Handsome People" He
pictured in fowery and characteristic
language the conditions which produce
beauty or those, IN the other hand,
which create ugliness. Art and expert
ence seem to contradict each other. But
true beauty depends not in form OF
looks but in the beauty of soul and char
acter. The Colonel was at his best and
many a rich joke he cracked in his
stories. The audience were kept con.
| vulsed most of the time.

hopefulness of the work has in the fac
that OF every 100 men rescued from
drinking habits return to them, while oil
