tation in Baltimore. Of course, people are always longing for something new and this recital is extremely new to them. Carrie opens the programme with a reading, but' as soon as she appears the audience are interested for she is such a handsome woman-not large, yet not too small. Her reading is appreciated, but when she appears the next time, and sings a dreamy song, the auditors grow enthusiastic and desire an encore. She has thus even more than satisfied the very critical society of her home. The grandest part of it all is that she has used her talent for the good of others; her whole time is occupied in doing just such things to elevate mankind. Surely nothing but success could crown such efforts." Nelsie Horsey, Sal's chum and room-mate, was the most innocent girl in the class, but a girl that we all respected.

His powers of argument were of much advantage to him, he was able to draw many people and then he influenced all. To-day you may see him at the Governor's reception, he is introduced as the Secretary of State. Listen carefully and you will hear just the same Mr. Orrick, as of old. He is continually telling interesting tales and enjoying them with the others. He knows how to attend to his duties as Secretary and has thus made himself invaluable to the Governor." "A large library, with walls literally lined with books, busts of a few favorite authors are scattered around in all the niches in the room, fresh violets and roses are on the table, seated near the table is Ella Love.
