TAYLOR.

The Christmas musical eXercis ises
given on Sunday evening at the CAL
vary Baptist church was onu of the
most delightful feasts of music TAYLOR
has been treated to for some time. The
programme was of high order and was
rendered in manner that was most
creditable. The chorus work reflected
great credit on the chorister, Prof. d.
f. Jones. The opening number was an
organ prelude by Prof. Jones, which he
executed in his usual pleasing style.
The choir then rendered a salutation
Jubilate Dec, and again responded in
singing the hymn, Brightest and
Best" The pastor, Rev. DR.. Harris,
offered prayer, followed by the united
choir, which rendered the Lords
prayer. The choruses rendered by the
choir, with Miss Edith Watkins rem
dering the solo parts, were very pleas
ing numbers. Misses Henrietta Harris
and Olwen Howells rendered a beauti-
full duet, When the Shepherds" ="
Noel was the next number rendered
by Miss Edith w. Watkins, who is the
possessor of sweet soprano voice.
Miss Sallie Price recited THE Song OF
the Shepherds" assisted by invisible
chorus, which was pleasing In all re-
spects. The soprano solo, Rejoice.
Rejoice!' by Miss Henrietta Harris,
was exceedingly well rendered. This
duet, Bright Star OF Hope" was ex-
ceptlonally well rendered by Misses
Bertha Rose and Lydia Hoskns. Miss
Hoskins was also heard in a solo, 60

she rendered in a pleasing manner

DrOuet Method.

This method of treating the above
diseases was originated by the cele-
brated French physician, DIR. Drouet,
OF Paris. The treatment consists In
the direct application to the mucous
membranes of specific remedies, which
act by gradual impregnation on the
diseased tissues with remarkably sue
cessful results. A most ingeniously
constructed instrument and apparatus
is required to carry out this mode of
treatment. BY its use every portion of
the Nose, Throat, Larynx, etc, are
illuminated for the purpose of dag
nosis and treatment. The remedies and
medicines are introduced to the dis
eased tissues In the form Of vapors and
medicated air. which produces a mild
and soothing effect upon the congested
and inflamed membranes. A single
trial of this treatment will convince
any one of it's beneficial effects.
This method of treatment is now in
troduced from Europe in the United
States for the first time. Its advant-
ages, etc, will be fully explained at
the offices of the

Found the Watn,,

Several days ago B. Nilsea, of Clark
field, shipped a car of wheat to D. R.
Wagner & CO., Minneapolis, person
ally assisting in loading the grain into
the car. While doing so he missed his
valuable watch, and as a search of the
premises failed to disclose it, he wrote
letter to the firm, telling of his loss
and suggesting that it might be buried
in the wheat.
The car was duly received by Wag-
ner & Co., and was rebilled to the La
Grange Milling company, at Red Wing,
who, in turn, were asked to look out
for the timepiece.
A few days later the watch was re-
ceived from the LaGrange company,
together with an explanatory note that
it had been found in the wheat when
the car was being unloaded.
