A Delightful Concert

Bluff House guests, as we'll as
many others, had the pleasure last
Saturday evening of listening to
some most delightful music, both
instrumental and vocal, at a concert
given for charitable purposes. The
Bluff House orchestra is an aggre-
cation of fine musicians who play
with excellent expression, the piano
duett by Miss Gladys and William
Rudolph was lively and well render
cd. The recitations by Miss Poroher
evinced culture and talent, the solos
and duett Of the Misses Clara H.
CoWles and Cora E. Guild displayed
musical talent Of high order. Their
voices are well trained and the
encores showed the appreciation Of
the audience. Signor de Novellis as
aocompanist demonstrated his skill
in technique and thorough under,
standing Of the sentiment OF the
selections, and Mr.. Arthur Fo,
handled a bow the with grace and
ease Of a virtuoso with the violin.

remember her for days and weeks, you
should suddenly run across the same per-

in her quite a different person, this
time instead of a hollow-chested, sunken-
checked, pale, stopped woman, with a
deep cough, which raised blood and
mucus, you should see bright-eyed
woman, straight, erect, a tinge of color

figure plump and robust, her voice soft
