THE ORGAN RECITAL.

Not for years has this community had SO
fine musical privilege as the one offered
on Tuesday evening. May nth, when Prof.
s. Tudor strang. AGO, organist of Epiph-
any P. e. Church, Philadelphia, will
preside at the Organ Recital of the new
$4,000 pipe organ erected by John Brown,
Of Wilmington, for the Middletown M. e.
Church and to be used for the first time
that evening. Prof strang was born Sept.
g. 1855, beginning his musical education at
8 years of age. Among his teachers was
the great Guilmant, the French master.
OF q recent recital at the Drexel Institute
the reviewer says of him: 'tHe interpreted
Bach with the deftness of a musical con-
jurer and in the Handel. larghetto ex-
tracted notes of such Wonderons beauty
that they seemed to steal out from the
manuals of their own harmonious accord.
To bis mere digital deftness-as was appar-
ent in the French compositions-he pos
sesses the happy faculty of adding such
brilliancy and fervor that the runs and
trills bubble forth like notes from bird"
Who that loves music can afford to miss
so rich and rare treat2 The organ is to
be paid for and the members of the COM
mittee, who have rendered faithful and
efficient service, deserve the encourage
ment of house crowded to the doors.
Nine out of ten, if not 80 out of 100, organ
recitals charge admission. and the small sum
offs cents should keep no one away. To
those who shout only ''a free gospel" there
will be over 100 opportunities every year to
hear the new organ, twice every Sabbath.
Do not miss the recital. Handsome pro-
grams, fully describing the organ, have
been prepared-one for every visitor on
Tuesday evening.

Thus writes Henderson Dale, Druggist,

Company, of Atlanta, Ca, the proprie-
tors and manufacturers of Mothers
Friend" This successful remedy is not
one of the many internal medicines ad-
vertised to do unreasonable things, but a
scientifically prepared liniment especially
effective in adding strength and elasticity
to those parts of woman's organism which
bear the severest strains of childbirth.
The liniment may be used at any and
all times during pregnancy up to the
very hour of confinement. The earlier it
is begun, and the longer used, the more
perfect will be the result, but it has been
used during the last month only with
great benefit and success.
1t not only shortens labor and lessons
the pain attending it, but greatly dimin-
ishes the danger to life of both mother
and child, and leaves the mother in a con-
dition more favorable to speedy recovery.

rRUE WoRrH rn1UMpHANr.

Truth crushed to earth will rise again, and the meritorious cigarette cannot be slandered out of good socie- ty. Indeed, 1t Is continually gaining in favor there and its social triumphs are based on true worth. Not long ago a band of scientific gentlemen decided that cigarettes were not poison, and they even said that they were better than cigars. Cigarettes have not been called coffin nails lately, and now it ap- pears that they do not cause insanity. The paper on cigarette smoking con- tributed to the Medico-Legal Society in New York by Clark Bell is notable for the quantity of evidence it contains against the common notion that cigar cites are dangerous to health. Among other things Mir. Bell produced many letters from superintendents of insane asylums and eminent alienists and neu- rologists of this country and Canada, in which 1t was emphatically stated that no case of insanity caused by cig- arctic smoking had ever come under their care. Another speaker at the same meeting added more evidence to like effect, and spoke of the cigarette as maligned, but not malign.
 Make way for the pleasing, the sooth- ing and the health-giving cigarette. Now if some scientific gentlemen will assure us that the horrible smell of the | cigarette is as good for human beings as onions and garlic are all will be as right as it can be.

 Another item that is a safe bargain is pongee In natural color, and denim in red and blue is good investment. It is little early for duck, but the reefer design is sure to be accepted. Don't venture anything like the blazer, how ever, and remember that the Russian blouse Is sure to put in an appearance in duck and denim. Soft biscuit yellow is to be a favorite color, and be guided by that hint if you are going in for bargains. A taffeta silk waist in light blue might be a foolish investment, but the same thing In delicate yellow would be find. Bright green is llt- tie "faddish," bright green scarf would be risky, but just gobble scar- let one if you get chance at bar gain price. FLORETTE.

NOT YET IN SIGHT,

Gentlemen may cry war, war, but there is no war yet, and there is no sign that the next breeze that sweeps from the South will bring to our ears the clash of resounding arms. It is now announced that international law will cover almost everything that can come out of the disaster to the Maine, and that probably it will be applied before war is resorted to. There is no sign of any unusual strain at Wash ington, and though there is no let-up in the efforts of the yellow newspapers it is not believed that they will bring on war, except possibly war against their reckless and wicked selves.
 Though there is no war in sight it is encouraging to see the ebullitions of the fighting spirit They promise well for the time when necessity, wicked ness or folly may involve this country in war. We know of members of, the Naval Reserve who are eagerly await ing the call to arms, and members o1 many military organizations are in a similar state of feeling.
