THR RXCBPTION THIS EVENING.
The Seniors and Post-graduates ten
der their annual reception to their
friends this evening at the Institute.
Quite a large number of invitations
have been issued, and an evening of
rare pleasure will be spent by all who
attend.
The will come the last good-byes
and the commencement of 1893 will he
completely over. ■
Hon. W. V. Lucas, ex-State Auditor
of Iowa, says: “I have used Chamber
lain’s Cough Remedy in my family and
have no hesitation in saying it is an ex
cellent remedy. I believe all that is
claimed for it. Persona afflicted by a
oough or oold will find in it a friend.”
There is no danger from whooping
cough when this remedy is free given.

SOUS Of THE PAIST1NGS
This Has Been an Exceptional
Year With Miss Smith’s
Class—Able Instruction
and Tallent Accom
plished It.
The Art department of the Lucy Cobb
this year attracts mm than ordinary
attention from visitors. "
It ia not only a source of deep pride
on the part of the school but ia a study
and pleasure to the visitors. Many she
profuse are the compliment! shower*
upon Miss Jennie Smith and her pupils
bp admiring spectators. The art ex
hibit is aimply one of tbe finest ever
displayed in any regular literary col
lege. The handsome paintings that
form the beautiful collection are richly
mounted with fine and artistio frames
made by Haselton and Dozier, and the
pictures themselves are scarcely enti
tled to more eradit than their moan-
tings. Etch piotare is a study each a
work of art, and each entitled to indi
vidual destinotion and a judge of art
would hardly be likely to oredit the
conception and execution of the work
to a college girl. The excellence of tbe
work is due principally to the Superior
ability and skill of Mias 8mith ss an
artist and an instructor and to the nat
ural talent of tbe pupils.
Oneoqthe most striking paintings in
the room is an exquisite pastel, by Mits
Rnth Cunningham, of Atlanta. The
title is “Bay My Violets.” It repre
sents a dark ohnbby Italian flower
girl, tender in years, bnt a look that
would indicate muoh greater maturity,
dressed in the garb of her native city
and in keeping with her station, and
is so life-like that the spectator almost
feels embarrassed under the piercing
gaze of her large black eyes.
The deep, rich beanty and artistio
touch of Miss Alice Shropshire s, At
lanta, flowors are greatly admired, and
are works of merit.
But it would be hardly fair to oredit
any picture in the room with more
beauty in conception, design or artistio
exeontion than the lovely paintings of
Mias Edna Pope, of Atlanta.
