Music Recital.

Miss Lauraine Mead and her pupils,
assisted by Miss Ida Jones, elocution-
ist, gave fine entertainment Tues
dai evening at her home, that was
highly applauded by the large audi
ence attending. That the older pu-
pills should have acquitted themselves
with credit was to have been expect
ed, but that ten or twelve who had
never before played in public and
some of whom had scarcely taken a
full term of lessons should have
shown the proficiency they did was
truly remarkable and distinguished
credit to teacher and pupils. Master
Donald Lent, who gave the Spanish
Fandango on the guitar in good time,
had taken less than term of lessons.
Miss Ida Jones in the reading, Evali-
mas Garden, gave justice to the SUBJ
ject and won the plaudits of the audi
ence. The differe Mt numbers selected
were of high order of merit, showing
the advance of her pupils and the
higher grade OF music chosen for each
successive recital. After the recital
Miss Mead took her pupils who had
taken part that evening to the ice
cream parlors of Lomas s. Milz, where
they were served with cake and ice
cream.

what way are Chamberlain Stomach

answer is-They are easier and more
pleasant to take and their effect is so
gentle and so agreeable that one hard
ly realizes that 1t is produced by a
medicine. Then they not only move
the bowels but improve the appetite

Driving a Barqain.

The old Yankee skill at driving q
bargain is not being lost, as a story
in the Boston Herald shows. A wo-
man visitor at a fashionable resort
on the Maine coast last summer
went to the Universalist church in
the place the first Sunday morning
of her stay and was politely shown
to seat. There was no hymn book,
however, but the occupant of the
pew behind her reached over and
placed one in her hands. At the
close of the service the visitor turn
ed and thanked the person, saying
as she was to attend that church all
she would like to buy
hymn book. "Well," said the other
woman, 81 guess you can have that
book if you'll give me a pair of
black gloves, No. T." every WE'LL"
said the visitor. The next day she
went to Portsmouth, purchased the
No. Z black gloves for $3.50 and
July received the use of the hymnal
n exchange for them on the follow
ng Sunday.

MarrlaoeabIe Aues In Europe.

In Denmark a girl of twelve and
boy of fourteen can marry. In
most places the limit for age is
eighteen for men and sixteen for
women. In Germany a man can
only contract marriage before his
twenty-first year when he is spe-
cially declared of age, and this can
only be done when he has completed
his eighteenth year The law of
France is specially notable for stip-
ulating about the legal rights of
each party and the relations of each
to the earnings of the other. The
man who marries a French woman
becomes by French law liable to be
called on for the support of his
wife's near relatives if they are in
heed.
