"a little nonsense, now and then,
Is relished by the best of men,

and women too, must, think, have been
the keynote to the entertainments given by
the school, under the auspices of Prof. K.
G. Hilliard, the Principal, on last Friday
night. The nonsense was, however good,
and the audience remained willing to hear
more of the same kind until the finish.
This may have been due to the fact that it
was wisely dispensed, and several good
not pious things made an admirable set
ting for the place where the laugh came in.
/ wonder whether any act In the world can
be kinder than the one which makes US
laugh Life has SO many sorrows, and to
weep with those who weep is impressed up
on us as an act of the greatest self-abnega-
tion, and SO, with the tears of grief or, OF
sympathy, still in our eyes we hail with
delight the person, or persons, who can
bring laughter TO our lips, and joy to our
hearts, though it be but for moment The
twin sisters, Alice and May Gibbs gave rs
a delightful duet to begin with. Next
came an "Old- Fashioned Garden, given
by quite yeung children, who represented
flowers. The flower complained of dust
and heat, and longed for water. To this
end they knelt and bowed their heads
patiently awaiting the dews of heaven,
when some other little tots came in
carrying small green watering pots, tied
with red ribbons, and watered them to
their hearts content. The energy which
some of them showed in performing this
act was, I thought, an indication of what
might be expected Of them as the years
grow. A little act, given by the younger
girls in the grammar department., called
s.Topsy Turey'' turned the house topsyturvy
with delight. 1t was a song to which the
action gave point cannot tell any more
about it because Thorofare wants to keep

Match, y given by the older girls and boys,
was excellent, as was also the Boys Dia-

violin solo, by the Rev. George S. johnson,
with piano Accompaniment, by Prot. r. G.
Hilliard, was much enjoyed. Charly Leon

Monologue, by Prof. R.. G. Hilliard,

very humorous and delighted the audience

fare letters in this, that no one knew who
would be bit next. The entertainments was
given In order to raise ten dollars for the
benefit Of the school library, the State hav-
ing promised to give each year ten dollars
to any scho (which would raise like sum,
for the benefit of school libraries. In this
respect, also, the entertainment was a
success. came near forgetting the spell

Proper treatment q Pneumonia.

Pneumonia is too dangerous disease for
anyone to attempt to doctor himself, al
though he may have the proper remedies on
hand. A physician should always be
called. 1t should be borne in mind, how
ever, that pneumonia always results from a
cold or from an attack of the grip, and that
by giving ChambeFlain's Cough Remedy
the threatened attack of pneumonia may be
warded off. This remedy is also used by
physicians in the treatment Of pneumonia
with the best results. DIR. W. J. Smith, of
Sanders, Alabama, who is also druggist,
says Of it: Il have been selling Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy and prescribing it in
my practice for the past six years. I use it
in cases Of pneumonia and have always
gotten the best results. = For sale by A.
