HiOO-A-Xj. * r A good many of our people went over to the commencement at Living stone this week. Miss Annie Wade and Miss Emma Hall of Concord, left last Tuesday evening for Ponsylvania. Mrs. and Mr. J. E. Ratlcy left last Monday afternoon to visit the Presby terian General Assembly. The Zion General Conference did not adjourn to visit the commence ment, and but few ministers present. Mrs. Leah Henderson an old and respected member of the Episcopal church, died last Sunday and was buried Monday afternoon. Rev. R. H. Stitt of Grace church, was quietly married on Wednesday night last, in Salisbury, to Miss Alice M. Ury, at the residence of the bride’s sister. A very pleasant reception was ten dered Rev. R. H. Stitt and wife on Thursday evening, by the members of his church at Mrs. W. R. Hin ton’s. Things were not very pleasant it seems in the 7th District Republican convention last Tuesday. Dr. Mott and Bulla of Lexington were elected delegates. House of the Good Samaritan. A lot on Hill street near Mint has been purchased, on which the Good j Samaritan Hospital for colored people will soon be erected. The funds have i been given entirely by members of the Episcopal Church in Northern States, and this charity will be under the care of the Episcopal Church in Charlotte. Mrs John Wilkes has, gince 1882, been engaged in collecting money for this purpose. And has now sufficient to put up the building. Work on it is only delayed for want of brick. The lot is now being en closed by a fence. The architect came here from New York to see about the building and has prepared a plan which will bo very convenient besides being an ornament to the city. When completed, the citizens here will be asked to aid in its support, but the money to erect the work will; be raised elsewhere. This will be an important adition to the comfort of the colored people. With a great overland route across 8i- ! lieiia, tucli as the new railroad the Rus sian government proposes to I uild, that country will Im* aide to dominate very largely Asiatic commerce. Out in Mitchell, Dak., the children still study the old fashioned geographic* which show tho site ot the thriving town in which they live to be in the Great American Desert. ADVICE TO* MOTHERS. Mas. Winslow's Soothiku Byarr. for chil dren teething, is the prescription of oneofllie host female nurses and physicians In the United States, and lias been used for forty years with never-failing success by millions of mothers for their children. During the proctse of teething its value is incalculable. It relieves the child from jisiii, cures dysentery and dlar rh'ro. griping in the bowels, and wlnd-collc. By giving health to the child It rests the mother. Price 25c. a bottle LIVINGSTONE COMMENCEMENT. It was our pleasure to witness the commencement exercises at Livingstone College last Wednesday. Tho society exercises came off on Monday and Tuesday nights. Kcv. G. W. Clinton ! speaking for tho Garrison on the former and Dr. AVeaver of Baltimore for the Hood on the latter night. On AVednesday morning at 11 o’clock tho exercises were opened with—“AVhiter than snow,” after which prayer was offered by Rev. S. Mattoon, D.D., of Biddle University. The ‘‘Hallelujah chorus,” was sung with much effect, Miss Ellen Dade, A. 8., presiding at the organ. Prof. Price in his usual pleasant style introduced Rev. Dr. C. F. Deems of New York, to deliver the annual address. Dr. Deems has a very pleasant delivery, is plain, practical and forci ble He dwelt upon the importance of Christian education aud the fallacy of secular schools that do not instruct in the teachings of the Bible. It was a grand address. The graduating speeches were made in the afternoon. The anthem, ‘‘Behold what manner of man,” was sung and Rev. G. AV. Clinton prayed Seven classical, one theological and four normal graduates were seated on the rostrum with Presideut Price. Miss Bcttic Riddick of Coffee- : 110 aud Miss N. A. O’Kelly of Raleigh read essays and Mr. F. McNeill of North Carolina and Geo. H. Wilkerson of Alabama orated for the normals. Rev. R. 11. Stitt spoke for the theological class upon “The miuistry wc need.” This speech captivated and carried the audience away in eloquence. This was one of the best speeches of the day. Rev. J. S. Caldwell, the other graduate, was unable to speak, as he had been quite sick for two weeks. The Latin salutatory for the college class was delivered by Mr. AYalter L. Henderson of Salisbury aud val edictory by Mr. C. D. Howard of Tarboro. This class contained ten, including two ladies. Miss Ellen Dade delivered the Mathematical oration, while Miss Esther Carthey delivered the Physical oration. The speeches of this class were all good— well written and well delivered, but Mr. J. D. Bibb is thought to have made the best delivery. The music was all good but the quartette in the rendition of “Migno nette” deserve special mention. The voices were : Miss Hamilton, sopra no; Miss Tucker, alto; Merritt, tenor; Hood, bass. The school shows marked improvement in singing. The appearance and conduct of the audi ence was as good as any of the best people in the State. There were about fifty of the white citizens of Salisbury present. The prizes for the Junior contest were awarded Messrs J. J. Walker! and AV. B. Feuderson. Biddle Uni-I versity was well represented by Dr. [ Mattoon, Prof. Geo. E. Davis and a half dozen students. There were several other distinguished visitors from different States. Rev. Dr. ! Weaver of Baltimore, Rev. Brown of I New York, Rev. Clinton of S. C.,i Mrs. J. P. llamer and Mrs. Bishop 1 Jones of AA’ashington city, Mrs ; Bishop Lomax, and a number of; others of our State. Dinner was served in grand style; and all that could be wished was ser- j ved. The Alumni supper was iu j keeping with any we have had the pleasure of seeing. AVe cannot do: justice to the occasion and simply men- i tion parts. The Professors aud studeuts were all in good health except Prof. Atkins, who has been threatened I with fever nearly two weeks. The number eurolled this year was 210. AVhen our female seminary is started Zion will enroll iu the two sehools 500. At the close of the morning exer | cisti a handsome banner was presented i the President from Mr. Chase of New I York. Thu banner was handsomely mounted with gold fringe aud staff. One side is white satin with a large picture of Mr. Livingstone. The other side is blue satin with the mot tos: “Be Patient, Resolute, Industrious, Courteous, Economical.” It was a gala day for Salisbury and Livingstone, and the prayer of all is, that it may live and grow and continue to do its great and good work.

The beauty and health of the body depend upon the skin; knowledge of its structure, functions and tho care it requires is there fore very important. Among interesting sanitary points, Dr. E. O. Cooko describes os follows in Demoreßt| the oil glands and per spiratory system. Tho oil glands are imbedded in tho skin and open at tho end of each hair on the sur face of thfi body and supply it with nourish ment. It is the thickening of tho oil in these glands which forms the little black spots on tho skin, sometimes called worms or grubs. When irritated by squeezing, these often in flamo and causo a chronic roughness of the face. Washing with very hot water and pure soap rubbed freely on the parts affected with theso black spots will often cure them. For tho stiff, unconifortablo feeling resulting from tho uso of soap, a little oil or vaseline may bo applied afterward. This should be dono at night. Never wash tho face just be fore going out into tho cold. Oiling also prevents chapping. Tho perspiratory apparatus is contained in the third layer, or true skin, and underlies tho coloring matter. It consists of minute tubes which pass through the upper layers and terminate in its deepest meshes. Each tube forms a beautiful spiral coil, and whon arriving at its destination coils upon itself in such away os to form an oval shaped ball, called tho perspiratory gland. Tho openings of theso glands we call ]>ores. Physiologists say that in an ordinary sized body there are about 7,000,000 perspiratory tubes, each tube one-fourth of an inch long, making a drainage of nearly twenty-eight miles. From twenty to forty ounces of waste pass through these pores every twenty-four hours. If from cold or neglect theso open ings become obstructed, the absorbents carry this poison back into the system for other organs to eliminate, giving theso organs more than their share of work, aud an en tire derangement of the system follows sooner or later. Tho Baby'i Bath. First.—Have tho room warm, and every thing at hand which may be needed during tho operation. Tho baby’s basket should be carefully looked after, and its contents re plenished when necessary. Second.—The water should boos a pleasing temperature— neither too hot nor too cold—and a pitcher of hot water at hand to replenish it as it cools. The cloth used in washing—if a cloth be pre ferred—should be fine and soft, that it may not irritate tho tender cuticle. A soft velvet sponge is much to bo preferred, however, and fcAv will return to the cloth after once trying its efficacy. In bathing, uncover but a small portion of the body at a time, keeping the remainder wrapped in a flannel, a soft old blanket or shawl answering this purpose nicely. Wash with gentlo strokes of the sponge, and wipe instantly with a soft towel. Concerning the Complexion. When you find a soap that is pure and suita your skin, continue to use it. Frequent changes are bad for tho complexion. Pimples often arise from washing with cold water when overheated. For roughness, caused by exposure to wind, sponge tho face with equal parts of brandy and rose water. If you uso powder always wash it off before going to bed. Many persons prefer almond meal or oat meal to soap for washing faco and hands. Glyccrino does not agree with a very dry skin. A Favorite Bair Dressing. One of the pleasantest and best of hair dressings can be made by tho following recipe, which forms the base of many of the most popular preparations in use: Castor oil (pure and fresh), six onnees; alcohol (95 per cent.), two ounces; oil of ber gamot, ono dram. Mix and shako well. Bergamot is an exquisite and favorite per fume, but any fragrant oil such as rosemary or lavender may be substituted if preferred. Tho proportions of the recipe are excellent, yet one may make the dressing less oily, if liked, by omitting an ounce or two of the oil Cooking Soda for Burns. Common cooking soda affords speedy relief to all burns and scalds, and is one of the best as it is one of the most conveniently obtained and applied, of domestic remedies. The dry soda should bo laid thickly over tho burn (tho object being to exclude air) and should bo bound on with a cloth. When the skin is badly broken, cloths wet with a very strong solution of soda in water and then spread with dry soda are sometimes applied to the burns. A Caro for Ringworms. Ringworms sometimes come on an appar ently healthy skin without any cause that can bo discovered, and prove very stubborn to treat. Borax is said to boa surocure. Wash with a strong solution three times per day and dust over with the fine dry powder. Gargle for a Sore Throat. A physician prescribes tho following gar gle for a 6oro throat: A tablospoouful of gly ccrino aud a little salt—say half a toaspoon ful in a half glass of water. SOCIAL ETIQUETTE. Good Manners More Serviceable ia So ciety than a Bank Account. Good manners arc not so common as to be of no weight in society, like good spoiling or good English, says Harper's Bazar. One may lx* os rich as the Rothschilds, one may lie highly educated and not possess them, or one may havo them in a degree. Goal maimers aro more serviceable than a passport, than a bank account, ora lineage. They malm Minds for us; they aro more potent than eloquence and genius without them. They undoubtedly spring from a kind heart, and arc tho dictates of good humor. They are not something to bo learned from fashion nows and books of etiquette; they are not imported or borroAved. The good man nered ix'rson doos not tells us our failings, docs not lecture us; ho does not merely wear his manners because they are becoming or politic, but because ho con no more exist without them than without air. There are those who may bo said to have a positivo geuius for goal manners os an other has for conversation; they know how to Bway others by them. Polite people have an influence that is not duo to their position or possessions, to their learning or their wit. There are those who believe that good rrfan nors are only onotlier name for good clothes and goal foal and good homes with the modern conveniences and luxuries, that they are talkative and emphatic and showy; but wo do not always find that tho best man nered |M»ople live in palaces. Goal manners aro something which no body can afford to do without, no matter how rich or powerful or intellectual he may be. They add to beauty, they detract from per sonal ugliness, they cast a glamor over de fects, they <tmeliorate tho round shoulders of this person and tho squint of the other; where they exist, imagination supplies defi ciencies of every other attraction. They aro contagious, like tho measles, but they must bn morn than skin deep to boos any service Presiding; Elder’s Appointments. Faykttkvilmc Jlistkict. — 3d Round. Fayetteville—May 31 to June 4.
