of Regents, adjourned to the Entler
Hotel, where the banquet had been
prepared. The dining-room of this
popular hostelry had been beautifully
decorated with flowers and plants, and
presented scene of great beauty, en-
HANGED, as it was, by the presence Of
the fair daughters and sturdy sons of
Shepherd College. The supper that
was served was alike enjoyable to the
guests and creditable to the host, con-
sisting of cold fowl and other meats,
salads, ices, and other seasonable deli
cacies. When the menu had been am
ply discussed, POSTMASTER VIM. J.
Knott called for the toasts, which were
responded to as follows Ladies, First

ing thoroughly enjoyed the day, and
anticipating with pleasure already the

HOW TO FIND OUT.

Fill a bottle or common glass with
urine and let it stand twenty-four hours;
a sediment or settling indicates an un-
healthy condition of the kidneys. when
urine stains linen it is positive evidence
of kidney trouble. Too frequent desire
to urnate or pain in the back, is also
convincing proof that the kidneys and
bladder are out Of order.
