There were ten selections by the club under Charles D. Geer's direct- ing and with Frederick W. Lester's skilful accompaniment. Miss Vera Barstow proved a most acceptable violinist, her sweet tone and sympa- thetic rendering bring her enthusiastic applause and her six selections on the programme were lengthened by two encore. numbers. . Her accompaniments were played by Mr. Lester. Miss Bar- nolt ,the contralto brought her own ac- companist, Miss Edith Clark Griffing. Her work was also received with fa- vor. $She generously responded each time she appeared with an additional song. The active members of the club are: First tenors Chbarles R.

The pimples will vanish after you have taken the tablets a few mnights. Nothing ever cleansed the blood, the bowels and the liver like Olive Tablets. Olive Tablets are the only successful substitute for calomel — they oil the bowels; there’s mever any sickness or pain after taking them. Olive Tablets do all that calomel does and just as effectively, but their action is gentle and safe instead of se- vers and irritating. No one who takes Olive Tablets is ever cursed with “a dark brown taste,” @ bad breath, a dull listless, “no good’ feeling, constipation, torpid liver, bad disposition or pimply face.

The man-o'-war hawk is a some- what large bird and an expert fisher, but he does most of his fishing in the air. When the booby bird comes home from abroad he finds the man-o'-war hawk ‘“layin’ for him,” and however persistently he may seek to escape by dashing flight, with much screeching and screaming, he finds that before he can safely set fgot on the land he must disgorge a fish or two, which the swift pursuer adroitly catches in the air. It seems, however, to be general- ly understood as a modus vivendi be- tween the fisher and the pirate birds that their contentions were only on the wing, and that once on land they should dwell peacefully in their sep- arate camping grounds. The boobies are awkward and un- wieldy on land, and may be easily captured. They rarely seek to escape when a man approaches, but, accus- tomed to meet the demands of their familiar enemy, the man-o’-war hawk, by disgorging a fish in the air, they frequently resort to the same process ang lay at the feet of the intruding stranger what stock of fish they have available. The man-o’-war hawks turned this practice to their own ad- vantage by following after any man who might appear among the nesting birds, circling in the air, just over- head, ready to pick up the fish which the frightened boobies might give up as a peace offering. The man-o'-war hawis were generally eager for any- thing, and would hover closely ready to take from the hand of a man what- ever he might toss in the air. On one occasion one of these birds swiftly snatched a notebook which lay for a moment on the ground, and sailed away, dropping it, however, on finding it to be neither fish nor rat.
