Music Recital.

The music recital given in the COLI
lege auditorium last SATURDAY night
by Miss Myrll Williams WAS an elevs-
ting and enjoyable entertainment.
The programme was thoroughly good
one, excellently rendered. Miss Will
liams was at her best, and her rich So
prano found opportunity for It's tui'-
est expression in the classic numbers
she rendered. Her music was genu'
inely enjoyed. Miss Amanda Titus
sang a very pretty duet with her as
one of the selections. Miss Titus also
rendered couple Of brilliant piano
solos, including one of her own ar
rangement. Miss Lorraine Turner
accompanied Miss Williams upon the
piano with great expression, and also
played couple of solos most beautl-
fully. A piano duet by Miss Will
liams and Miss WooleIy was also
much appreciated. Not the least en-
joyable feature of the programme were
he readings by Miss Stier, which were
greatly enjoyed. They were perfect
ly rendered. The Shepherd College
Orchestra, Prof. ]. D. Muldoon, lead
er, played several selections during
the evening in the most spirited and
acceptable style.

Catarrh Cannot be Cured

with LOCAL APPLICATIONS, as they
cannot reach the seat of the disease.
Catarrh is a blood or constitutional dis
ease, and in order TO cure it you must
take internal remedies. Hall Catarrh
Cure is taken internally, and acts di-
rectly on the blood and mucous sur
faces. Halls Catarrh Cure is not a
quack medicine. 1t was prescribed by
one Of the best physicians in this couu-
try for years, and is regular prescrip-
ton. 1t is composed of the best tones
known, combined with the best bleod
purifiers, acting directly on the mucous
surfaces. The perfect combination OF
the two ingredients is what produces
such wonderful results in curing Ca
tarrh. Send for testimonials free.

Catarrhal TROUBLES PREVALENT.
Spring Months Cause Catarrh. Breathe
HyOmei, and Be Cured

Catarrhal troubles are more COM
mon at this season than at any other
time of the year. The sudden chang
es that come duing the spring months
are productive Of may cases Of ca
tarrh that without proper treatment
will become chronic.
The pleasantest, most convenient,
and only scientific method for the
treatment and cure of catarrh, is Hy-
omei. Simply put twenty drops IN
the little pocket inhaler that comes
with every outfit, and then breathe
it for three minutes four times day.
The complete Hyomei outfit costs
but one dollar, and as the inhaler
will last life time and there is suf-
fcient Hyomei for several weeks,
treatment, it is the most economical
catarrhal remedy known. Extra
bottles can be procured for fifty cents.
Ask Remnants Pharmacy to show
you the strong guarantee under which
they sell Hyomei.

has been reorganized with Prof. j. D.

of hard practice are ready to uphold
their former reputation. The open
ing game of the season was played in
this place last Saturday, when the
second team from Charles Town cross
ed bats with the Shepherd College
second team. The game was very
close, as the score indicates, the col.
lege boys winning by the score of 10
to 9, although the visitors were much
heavier than our boys. The battery
for Charles Town was Hensler and
Hooe, while Reinhart and Morrow
composed the battery for the home
team. The Jefferson Academy boys
will play here next Saturday.
The following schedule has been ar
ranged, which promises to furnish
some interesting games
April 29-Jefferson Academy, at Shep-
herdstown.
May 3-Martinsburg High School, at
Shepherdstown.
May 2O-Jeferson Academy, at Mid
dleway.
June 3-Martinsburg High School, at
Martinsburg.
June 1O-Charles Town Academy, at

Two open dates remain. May 6 and
May so. The manager would be glad
to arrange for games on these dates.
