We were not able to secure them ' 5 for three-days as last year belny Indeed extremely fortu- ;. nate to be able to secure them at all. Dr. Sadler's Company ; ; ? , was the greatest attraction of our first Assembly, and we offer v ' i : ho apologies in presenting this talented Company during this - i season, j We will attempt to secure them again next yar. ' 5 : Dr. Sadler's Company numbers four people. Win. S. Sadler, ' M. D.. Lena K. Sadler, M. D., Anna B. Kellogg, registered ' GABRIEL MAGUIRE J f nurse and Miss Sarah Mildred Willmer, reader and entertain er. The programs presented by this company are varied and extremely interesting. Many of the lectures are of the demonstration-tableau order, illustrating In the most practical ' manner exactly the point that thjB lecturer desires to empha size. Dr. Wm. S. Sadler lectures upoa Popular Health sub jects, Slum and Social life, and upon Nature subjects, many of his lectures being illustrated with the stereopticon. This remarkable company have proved themselves capable of carrying on instruction of the highest order, while at the same time making it highly entertining and exceedingly pop ular. They have an almost inexhaustible repertoire, frequent ly returning for a third and fourth year in succession to the same Chautauqua, but they never repeat a lecture except by urgent request. ' They are In fact "A whole Chautauqua except the music." From the bogs of01d Ireland, to the heart of "Darkest Africa" Is a far cry. In his famous lecture. "With 'an Irish man Through the Jungles of Africa," Dr. Magulre tells you all about it, the circumstances that led up to It, how he eot there, what happened before he was able to get away, and what came of the experience. Dr. ilaguire bears the distinction of being the first white man to go up the Congo after Stanley came down. Fired by reading of the stirring account of that intrepid explorer's adventures, Dr. Maguire went to Africa as a missionary. During the six years that he labored in the heart of Africa he learned the language of the tribesmen, winning them at last to Christianity. A severe illness brought him back to this country and his appearance at the Christian Missionary Alli ance, In Carnegie Hall, New York City, was welcomed by an audience of more than six thousand people. His address upon that occasion was one of the greatest oratorical triumphs of . this generation. i In his lecture work Dr. Magulre carries with him a large collection of savage goda, snakesklns, Idols and other Imple ments of savage manufacture, among them being a necklace once worn by a witch doctor, each bead of which represents a human heart sacrificed to appease the wrath of evil spirits. ' Musical Instruments, arrows of the pygmies, horns, gongs, spears,' war clubs and savage dresses are shown and de scribed and many .personal experiences are related of the difficulty in securing such a collection. Dr! Magulre is pastor of the Calvary Presbyterian Church of Cleveland, Ohio. His lecture. "With an Irishman Through the Jungles of Africa" was delivered more than one hundred times last season. Be sure to come out and hear him, brogue and all. The Doctor has kissed the Blarney Stone and you will not be allowed to forget the fact. WILLIAM STERLING BATTIS, William Sterling Battls stands alone' In this country a an impersonator of Dick en's characters who has devoted his whole time and talent to this work only, and who has succeed ed In catching the spirit of the author in the spoken word and a faithful portrait of the Individual by the use of clever ' "make-up" and marvelous facial transformation. Charles Dickens was not only one of the most versatile of authors, but also one of the most human of authors. His characters seem to approach more closely to the reader or th student than do those of most writers. Besides being a most minute student of character his exposition of the popular wrongs of his day were most powerful. The description of the terrible outrages committed upon the defenseless pupils In the so called boarding schools, as related in the account of "Dotheboy's Hall" in, Nicholas NIckelby, awoke all England to the nature of many of these institutions and a parliamentary inquiry was at once instituted, with the result that hundreds of private schools were abolished. In his celebrated satire, "Jarndyce and Jarndyce," the vexatious delays and dilatory tactic of the courts of England were held up to ridicule, re sulting In a speedy correction of the abuses. His descriptions of the poorer quarters of London, of the desperate poverty and the savage criminality of many of the Inhabitants of the poorer portions of -London are surpassed by but one author, x ' ; ' ' '..,.. r : v ' .. , Superfluous -Verbiage.

She was not particularly accomplished, but she didn't know what else to do, and he hadn't suggested anything. 80 she played on and on, occasionally skip ping a few bars that she didn't re jnember and trusting to luck. Finally from sheer weariness and to make conversation she turned to Jhlm and aid: ;K . . i "Papa thinks It is wicked for me to play the piano on Sunday."

Absinth. Dr. fi. Hercod of Lausanne in a spe cial contribution to tbe Alliance Tem perance Almanac points out that the absinth liquor, which is now prohib ited in three European countries Bel glum, Holland and Switzerlandowes Its peculiar noxiousness to tbe fact that it is prepared with several es sences, among them wormwood, which have marked toxic properties. Added to the action of the alcohol (a strong absinth contains 03 per cent) these essences have a most deleterious ef fect on tbe organisms, especially on the nervous system.. Even small doses provoke a great irritability, which may essllv fcy irlshcrs to crime. Epilepsy is more quickly de veloped among absintb drinkers than among the drinkers of the commoner kinds of alcoholic liquors. Dundee Advertiser. i."
