IN PRIVATE PRACTICE.

Such strong proofs of the marvelous cures made by Dr David Kennedy's Fa- vorite Remedy have been brought to public notice lately, through the various newspaper investigations, that it has become now the standard medicine for the diseases for which it is prepared.
 Dr G. H. Ingraham. of Amsterdam, N. Y., states where the regular pre- scriptions used in case of kidney disease and gravel utterly failed, he prescribed pr Kennedy's Favorite Remedy, and it cured the patient.
 Dr William Smith, of Jewett's Heights, N. r., prescribed Favorite Remedy for Mrs Casper Brooks, of Athens, N. r., who was suffering from kidney disease, ulceration of the stom- ach, complicated with sickness peculiar to her sex; after the second day. steady Improvement was noted, and final per recovery.
 Dr kennedys Favorite Remedy acts directly upon the kidneys, liver and blood, in cases of nervousness, dyspep- sia, rheumatism and Bright's disease; iJ has made most pronounced cures, after all other treatments have failed. Druggists sell it.

THE GREAT SILVER STATUE.

The beautiful statue of Ada Rehan, in silver, has arrived in this city and has been placed in position in the cloak department of the Rowland, Cow, Stark company's store. The statue will remain on exhibition tor few days and everybody Tn the city should i'm prove the opportunity to see it. It is mar velous in its proportions graceful in it's pose, and magnificent in it's finish. The history. ot this wonderful production, which graced the Montana state building at the Chicago ex position, Is enteresting in the extreme. To begin with, it is the largest piece of silver casting ever made and the success in this direction is alone wonderful. Experts all over the world laughed at the Idea when it was at first presented but it's success has their scofffng demeanor to words of praise,
 The statue as it stands represents Justice posing gracefully on globe of silver. In her left hand Is pair of scales evenly balanced, the idea that justice IS equal to all. In the other Outstreached hand is the conven- tt"nal sword defying the world.

 of Trinity's class of '94, which gave the
 campus very bright appearance. Of
 course each member of the class had the
 preEtiest girl of the day with him and
 the day will be long and pleasantly re-
 membered by fathers, mothers, sisters
 and sweethearts. The class formed in
 the residents room and promptly at 3
 o'clock marched, in cap and gown, to
 heir seats, to music by Colts Band.
 The exercises began with the address of the president of the class, Shirley Car ter of Maryland. Frederick Foote John son of Newtown was the one chosen 10 de liver the oraiiOn of the day. After a few sound words addressed to his class mntes Mir Johnson said ;-''l have spoken of the possibilities of failure. LyJton has said, In the bright lexicon of youth there ia no such word as fail But with many college graduates the case Is other wise, and the eauee of the failure will very often be found to be a lack of tact, or practical talent, or in good old Anglo Saxon, con mon senSe.' How often do we bear it said of a man, He is highly educated aud learned man, but not prac- tical.' The truth is that such man is not highly educated, but half educated. That part which he gets from contact with the world is lacking. He may pro- perly be kept in q show case as speci- men of what the most approved system of education can do, but in the race for life Ihe practical man, the man of tact, the man of common sense, outstrips him two to one. If we would succeed in business or professional life let us keep always in mind the fact that practical knowledge, the whOlesomeingredient of common sense, is necessary to make in- knowledge available. The ex- perience gained from books, however is of the nature of learning; the experience gained from actual life is wisdom - Report of Class Day Exer- cises in Hartford Courant.
