Recital of Misses HAD and Lehr.

One of the best recitals ever given
in the Lexington College Chapel was
the graduating program presented
Tuesday evening by Miss Mary NJ.
hall of the piano department aud
Miss Lolita NJ. Lehr of the voice de-
partment. These young ladies are
among the older students OF the col
lege and are well-known in Lexing-
ton, having appeared frequently in
previous musical entertainments.
Miss Hall is known mostly as an &C
compauist; but yesterday evening in
addition to PLAYING Mis-, Lehr's ac-
compartments she played a number
of the most difficult piano selections,
showing herself t be . soloist Of
marked ability. Each number seemed
better than the last and her final
piece was :ruly grand. Miss Hall is
a most thorough musician and gives
a performance that is certain and
satisfying. She appeared as soloist
four times, playing as her first num-
Der a theme and variations by Mo-
cart; as the second, Bach's f Hat
minor prelude and ChopIn's Etude,
Opus 10, number 5; as the third, three
beautiful little pieces OF Schumann,
"Aufschwung," "Warumn and "Gril-
len" The fourth was Rats Etude
Melodique, number l.. This proved a
beautiful and simple melody embel-
lished by an elaborate accompani-
ment. Miss Hall met all its exact
ing demands admirably and rendered
it in magnificent style.
Miss Lehr has a voice OF remarka-
bic ST. ength and purity, well under
control. She sings with utter lack
of a~ffectation and yet with a display
of intelligent interpretative ability.
Her stage presence is fine and there
is not the slightest hint of uncertain.

A Monster Loaf.

Bakers in Germany are fond of max
ing odd experiments, the following be-
ing reported from Duisburg, in West
phalia. At a children's party recently
held in that town there was exhibited,
and afterwards cut up and distributed
among the youngsters present, a bread
twist which for size at least has surely
rarely been eQualed. Weighing no less
than $50 pounds, it had a breadth OF
six feet and a length of ten feet, and
was thus found sufficient to supply q
satisfactory afternoon collation. to as
many as 500 boys and girls.

What To DO.
There is comfort in the knowledge so

Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy,
fulflls almost every wish in correcting
rheumatism, pain in the back, kidneys,
liver, bladder and every part of the urinary
passage. Corrects inability to hold water
and scalding pain in passing it, or bad
effects following use of liquor, wine or
beer, and overcomes that unpleasant ne
cessity Of being compelled to 20 often
through the day, and to get up many
times during the night. The mild and
immediate effect of Swamp Root is
soon realized. II stands the highest be-
cause of its remarkable
