Kclectle (society.

A very nice audience met last ninht to hear the last regular exercises of the Eclectic Society this year, the first of which was a reading by G. G. Cox, entitled the "Capture of Arnold.

A very pretty Flute duet was then given by Messrs. Scott, and Ball, which was accompanied by the skillful pianist, Mi.-jj Hedges. Following this came a few short speeches by the different gentlemen of the Society, some of which exhibited a strain of humor. Extemporaneous speaking, is excellent drill for

young

gentlemen

and ladies, and should be practiced much more than it is. A tenor solo, "The Liberty Bird," was sung by Mr. Brown. This is a descriptive piece by Geo. F. Root, referring to the American Eagle.

Query Box, conducted by Miss W ells, in which were some very personal question, not answerable, either from ignorance or modesty. However this was a change, and intended to excite pleasureable emotions. The Misses Curtis next played a piano duet, after which Mr. E. J. Kerlin, in behalf of the society, presented to Mrs. Adams a music holder for her faithfulness as pianist, and to Mr. Crouse a beaatiful ink stand, for some writing he had done for the society.

Mr. Kerlin then received a nice volume of Milton's poems for his faithful labor as chorister. After a song by the choir, the society adjourned to meet on Saturday evening, June 19. in a joint meeting with the I'hilomathians and Addisonians.

IIICII SOIOOL NOTK*.

We hail the coming of the last day of school. The teachers are busv preparing the average per cent, of tne pupils for the year.

We notice for the last week or two Senuca in his notes in the h'.rpress denotes considerable space to criticisms, on the manners of the High School students, especially the girls. He has said nothing but what is true, and we will sit meekly and read it until he carries it beyond its natural bounds. Then he may watch for the rest.

These pleasant mornings and alter noons tempt one to tly away from school to the greeu woods and meadows, but whem he thinks of his Algebra, the Latin, and the nearness of examination, he goes half reluctantly back with the consolation that a few more days, studying will end it ail.

The Literary exercises, considered as a whole, were very good. We will not take opportunity to comment especially upon any single one. ANTHONY.

RL'SHvrLLB. Jun« 4.—About two years ago a young journalist of Richmond became acquainted with one of our handsomest and most popular young ladies, whose affections he at once tried to win so much so that his visits became quite frequent and protracted. Madam Rumor for some time had set the day apart for the tying of the nuptial knot. Fortunately for this young miss the Madam was once a little off. Some months ago this young journalist from Richmond made one of his fortnighly visits in a condition that women detest, and this young lady requested that hisSrisits cease, as she could not, and would not entertain such attention any longer. First his pleadings were of a persuasive character, to no effect, and, after he had been ordered from the house time and again, he started out on the tantalizing plan, and kept it up until last night, when he called on this young lady, and was met by an irate father, who gave him one of the worst whippings any mortal ever got.

It is predicted he will now stick type in Richmond.

Ladies About to Marry.

In marrying, make your own match do not marry any man to get rid of him, or to oblige him, or to save him. The man who would go to destruction without you, qnite as likely go with you, and perhaps dragvou along. Do not marrv in haste, lest vou repent at leisure Do not marrv for a liome and a living, when by taking care of your health you can be strong enough to earn your own living. Do not let aunts, fathers, or mothers, sell you for money or a position, into bondage, tears, and lifelong misery, which you alone must endure. Do "not place yourself habitually in the society of any suitor until j*ouhave decided the question of marriage human wills are weak, and people often become bewildeied, and do not know their error until it is too late. Get away from their influence, settle your head, and make up your mind alone. A promise may be made in a moment of sympathy, or even half delirous ecstacy, which must be redeemed through years of sorrow, toil and pain.

Out-door Ferneries.

A-pretty out door fernery may be easily made bv arranging a circle of stones on the north side of the house or in some shady place, and filling with rich dirt from the woods. In this plant the ferns, which are easily transplanted when they first start from the ground. Too much "maiden hair" must not be introduced, as this has a tendency to spread, to the injury of the other varieties. After the first year the bed needs but little attention, as the roots do not die during the winter. The addition of some hepaticas and'anemoneswill make the bed charming in the early Sprinc. as their dclicate blossoms appear before the fronds of the fern. Some wild vines may be used at the side to cover the stones, which are necessary, as they help to keep the plants cool and moist. Water freely.

First-Class Furniture.

Forty years experience in the furniture business enables me to offer a class of work superior to the common factory goods. Chamber, library and office furniture made a specialty. Call and see the most beautiful chamber set at 40 per cent, less than can be purchased elsewhere in the city.

I will also repair and varnish old furniture job work in all branches made to order at No. 513 Walnut street.

OPINIONS OF rilYSICIANS AND EMINENT MEN. Large

evacuations by sweating may be

employed more freely, and with less advantage to patients, than by any other secrction.—Todd's Clinical lectures.

Francis Green. M. D., New Yrok says: 'I entered the Turkish bath with a severe bronchitis. After passing through it I was surprised to find my chest relieved from all constriction, and my voice nearly restored. I am happy to say, I believe there is no better treatment."

I)r. S. E. Chaille says, in the New Orleans Medical Journal: "The Turkish bath is one of the mos potent remedial agents known to the profession and should be introduced into evey hospital, city, and village, in the land."

It is unquestionably the most potent agent that can be employed to equa^ze the circulation, and thus remove the congestion of the lungs, the liver, and all the internal organs. In removing irregularities in the uterine system, this agent possesses unparaUed efficiency."—New York Medical Gazette, No. 28, Feb. 2Qth, 1888.
