Lecture Recital.
On the evening of Feb. 1st, Dr.
Waucrh W. Lauder, of Chicago, will
give his "Lecture Recital" or "Talk at
he Piano" in the Baptist church. This
will be the next number in the College
Lecture Course. Dr. Lauder is one of
the greatest pianists in America. A
favorite pupil of the great Master Liszt;
it was his privilege to know the great
European composers and performers
and to have as perhaps no other
living American has, their own con
ception of their great works. Dr. Lan
der has no use for the trivial, or the
' common in music, but he has such a
wonderful ability to put into words
what might otherwise be uninteligible
to the unversed in music, that all enjoy
his "Talks-at the-Piano." He has a
great fund of incident, drawn from
travel, experience and close study of
the masters; a strong sense of humor
and splendid command of language.
His recitals have attracted much atten
tion and have been uniformily indorsed.
Holders of season tickets may use any
coupon for any one of Dr. Lauder's re
citals. Albany people who heard him
last year were delighted with his ren
dition of some of the great masters.
They will want to hear him again.

MONDAY.
CHEMAWA
WON.
The game of basket ball Saturday
evening resulted in d victory for the
Chemawa girls by a score of 21 to 16.
At the end of the first half Albany was
ahead 9 to 5, and when the game was
three quarters Albany continued to lead
by three points. About then the red
girls began making baskets and the
Albany guards seemed powerless to
stop them, as they rolled up four or
five in quick succession.
It was an interesting game devoid of
roughness, and a very refreshing feat
ure was the fairness of RefereeTebeau
of Cnemawa. Each side had four tries
at the baskets.
There was a large attendance of
good natured people.

For a Bad Case of Eczema on Child
Suffered for Three Months
Disease Reached a Fearful State
Pain and Itching were Terriblei
CURED AFTER OTHER
PRESCRIPTIONS FAILED
"When I was small I -was troubled
with eczema for about threo months. It
was all over my face and covered nearly
all of my head. It reached such a stato
that it was just a larpe scab all over,
and the pain and itching were terrible.
I doctored with an able physician for
some time and was then advised by him
to use the Cuticura Homed tea which I
did and I was entirely cured. I have
not been bothered with it since. I used
Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Ointment
but do not know exactly how much was
used to complete the cure. I can eafoly
say that Cuticura did a lot for me. Misa

ITCHING CURED
With Cuticura Remedies In 1
Three Days After Six
Months ot Suffering.
"I suffered fully six months. The
trouble began on my arms in little .
rod pimples and it was not long bofore
it was all over my body, limbs, face,
and hands. It was so bad that I could .
not rest night or day and during the
six months, I did not get a good night's
sleep. I doctored for three or four
months and spent at least twenty dol
lars trying to find a cure but none could
bo found. Then I saw the Cuticura
Kennedies advertised, and the next day
I purchased some for seventy-five cents
at the druggist's. I used them and I
was relieved of the itching in threo days,
and I have never had a sign of any skin
disease since. The Cuticura Remedies
are the only remedies to use for skin
diseases, they have cured me and. they
will cure others in the Bame way. J. W.
