According to tho announcement made

touching upon tho various diseases OF
horses and oattlo, tho contagious tendency
OF diseases common to dumb brutes anu
tho possibility of human boings contract
ing disease from them. Ills lecture was
attentively listonod to. 1t was treatise
from which all in tho audience who have
tho caro- of animals could draw much
valuable information. We regret that

ont.
In tho afternoon Prof. Nosom gavo his
attention to the treatment of q numbor
of mules and horses that had boen
brought for examination. Ho had sovo-
raj very intricate operations to perform
or the eyes and other delicate parts. He
made those operations quickly and with
out pain to tho animals. One of tho most
difficult operations performed was the
cutting of largo wen from tho neck of
Mr.. w. II. Thrifts mulo. Tho flesh was
laid bare around tho diseased part and
tho won removed without pain.
No chargoa wero made for thoso sor-
vices. Prof. Ncsom had with him several
students from Clemson, who ossstod

1t was vory much regretted that Presi-

be 4 SHED about ten feet high and this
would leave six feet above for hay or

barn running east, then south to even

west Of the east end Of the straw rack

should stand North Of this gate between

1he Cotton Shirtwaist

The Gotten snirtwaist has made it's
annual appearance. Some say the shirt
waist is especially suited to the needs Of
the poor woman, but experience has
proved that her rich sister finds just as
much use f.: it. There is nothing start.
lirgly new about the first display of
waists. For the most part they are made
OF fine ginghams and cheviots in delicate
colOrings, and are somewhat less fancy
i'll design than those of last year. Most
Of the materials are striped either YER
tically or in Bayadere effect. White
waists promise to find even greater favor
than formerly, and some of the shirt
waist girls have already declared their
Intention of wearing no other
The white waist certainly has some adj
vantages. 1t does not fade and as q rule
takes starch well, which those made of
too soft ginghams refuse to do. On the
other hand, white is not SO becoming gen
orally as some of the soft shades, and it
is especially trying in thick cotton goods,
such as are used in the swell waist.
Most women who, last season, tried
shirtwaists made of washable silk, say
that they will never wear cotton ones
again. The silk waists seem extraya-
giant to one who looks no further than
first cost. But such silk wears at least
three seasons and does not fade in the
least. Added to this, it has the merit of
being soft, cool and becoming, and is to
be had in the most exquisite colorings.
The plain silks make quite dressy waists,
while those that are striped have no end
