THE COMMENCEMENT.
Epitome, of the Week's Exercises
Cumberland Female College.
at
, The commencement at CV F.. Col
lege, like Christmas, comes but once
a year, and during the continuance
of the varous exercises consequent
upon this event, public interest here
is about as completely absorbed in
them as in the usual Christmas
festivities.
All of the school work and exam
inations were finished up last week.
The annual sermon was delivered at
the C. P. Church on Sunday morning
by Rev. D. C. Kelley, D. D., of
Nashville. Every seat in the church
was filled. While Dr. Kelley's effort
was quite interesting and entertain
ing throughout, to call it a sermon
would be a misnomor, for it partook
in very slight degree of the nature of
a sermon. It was an addreas of much
merit, rather of a seculor than of a re
ligious nature, and was well adapted
to the occasion for which it was de
livered, but not to the day and place of
its delivery. It obliterated the line
which should be distiuctly marked
between the pulpit and the platform.
He used no particular text, but took
for the subject of his address four wo
men of the Bible, viz : the mother
of Moses, Pharaoh's daughter, Debo
rah, and Mary, and incidentally
Martha, the sister of Mary. His ad
dress was replete with instruction
and good advice to the young ladies.
Taken altogether it wa3 an excellent
lecture,and the Doctor held the undi
vided attention of his large audience
for more than an hour.
On Monday night there was a con
cert consisting of musical and literary
exercises, and concluding with a cal
isthenic march and drill which cap
tivated all who saw it. This branch
has been taught during the last ten
months by Miss Mary L. McClure,
one of the music teachers, and the
march and drill on Monday night
was the prettiest ever given here,
The young ladies were beautifully
dressed in pink and green costumes,
and the promptness, precision and
grace with which they executed the
various movements and evolutions
was highly creditable to both them
selves and teacher.
The leading feature of Tuesday
night's entertainment was the Oper-
etta entitled Laila. The company of
lovely maidens and troupe of beauti
ful little fairies, each numbering a
score or more,presented very entrauc
ing spectacular effects. Miss Leila
McClure as Laila, the May Queen,
and Miss Mary Ritchey as Queen of
the Fairies, sustained their parts ad'
mirably, while all the participants
acquitted themselves with praise
worthy excellence.
The exercises of the graduating
class were given on Wednesday
night. The essays were as follows:
Miss Emma McCleary, of Texas;
Salutatory.
Miss Bernie Beasley, of Tennessee ;
subject "Standing With Reluctant
Feet, where the Brook and River
Meet."
Miss Carrie Mosely, of Tennessee ;
subject "Foodies."
Miss Lizzie Ford of Texas. (Miss
Ford was called home by illness in
her family a few weeks ago, and from
that same cause, was not enabled to
return.)
Miss Leila McClure, of Tennesssee;
subject "Whither."
Miss Laura Edna Warren, of Ten
nessee: valedictory subject; "Kest
Aftm. TV.il . TWf A ftor Stnrmn fioo
This was followed by the confer
ring of degrees.and awarding medals
and diplomas, also a short address by
Mr. F. M. Smith, and a few remarks
by other gentlemen present.
The exercises throughout were irv
terspersed with vocal and instrumen
tal music of a high order, some of it
was so high that we couldn't ("catch
on"), and all of the entertainments
were unusually pleasant, interesting,
and entertaining.
Medals were awarded as follows :
Deportment out of school, given by
Mrs. Rogers, to Misses Jennie Cun
ningham, Bernie Beasley, Leila Mc
Clure. Masrgie Buouo. and Emma
McCleary.

Cure of Cancer and Ulcers.
Judge T. C. McLendon writes to
the Swift Specific Co.: "About three
years ago Jerry Bradley had a can
cerous sore on his face, near the right
eye. It caused him a great deal of
pain, and he lost the sight of the eye
but was finally. cured by the use of
Swift's Specific. This case is well
nown in Wilkes county, Ga., where
he lived."
Mr. L. Cox, of Arkabutla, TateCo.,
Miss., writes : "I suffered a great deal
from old ulcers for years. Your med
icine was recommended, and after
using six bottles was completely
cured. Your medicine does even
more than you claim for it. I have
known it to cure cases which were
thought hopeless.
Mrs. A. M. Goldsmith, No. G74
Warren St., Brooklyn, N. Y., writes:
"I commenced using S. S. S. about
three years ago. I suffered much
with a sore throat for over a year
used a great many other remedies
with no good results. My little girl,
also, had sore fingers ; it commenced
from the quick, and then the
nails would come off. We doctered
her for over two years, and when I
began using S. S. S. I thought I
would see what it would do for her.
I am thankful to say that it entirely
cured her. It is the best remedy I
know of for the blood. I really be
lieve it was the means of saving my
lue. me doctor told me 1 had a
throat disease similar to General
Grant's. I cheerfully recommend it
to all suffering from disordered
blood.
