MUSICAL TIPS.

Edward Lloyd has added to his fame in
this country by scoring great success in his
course OF six concerts running at the Madi-
son Square concert hall in New York city.
The vast place has been crowded with de-
lighted auditors who find the suburb Eng
lish voice revelation in music. Mr.. Lloyd
will be in ST. Paul very soon in a concert at
the Peoples church. He began his tour of
twenty-five concerts in Canada, and the very
largest halls in Montreal and Toronto were
sold out long before the date of the concert.
Mr.. Lloyd seems to be the musical success of
the year.
At an old curiosity shop in Vienna some
one recently found valuable and most ill.,
teresting portrait of Franz Schubert. 1t was
painted in 1923 by the Viennese artist, A
Mansfield. A son of the latter, himself a
painter, guarantees the genuineness Of the
picture, which is said to be one of striking
resemblance, and which bears on its back
the date and the words, I'm remembrance"
The first performance Of the opera la
Femme Narcisse"-words by Fabrin Care
and music by Louis Varnay-took place at
the Theater de la Renaissance, Paris last
week ana proved great success. The scene
is laid in 1910 in a florists workshop, and the
plot is su fhciently bright, the hero being q
man who is not in love with his wife. The
incidents are ordinary but there is good
deal of gayety il the piece. The music is
light and may easily become popular.

INGENIOUS FRAUDS,
Some of Which Are Perpetrated
Through the Mails.


The frauds attempted by the use of
the mails are almost innumerable. They
consist of schemes concocted to humbug
the unsuspecting public, and it seems
the greater the fraud the greater
the returns to the swindler. Near
ly all of these schemes make
use of advertisements published in
newspapers and of circulars distribut-
ed through the mails. Without these
means the public could not be reached
and for this reason the law has been
enacted prohibiting the use of the mails
for fraudulent purposes. BUTT is to be
borne in mind that unless complaints
are made to the pOstOffice de-
partment,, these frauds are car
ried on without any knoWl-
edge of their existence and no lnvestl-
stances of these frauds. A few years
ago an advertisement appeared in the
papers stating that for the sum of 81
receipt would be given for the perma-
nent cure of stammering. When
the dollar was sent the re-
ceipt was returned, which simply
read: keep your mouth shut" An
other instance of this kind was where
an advertisement recited that for so
cents recipe would be given for catch
ing all the fish in any given body OF
water. When the so cents was sent a
receipt would be returned telling the
victim to dip all the water out and
then pick up the fish,"
Another form of fraud is perpetrated
by means of advertisements so wOrded
as as to mislead the public. Persons
answering think that for % cents they
are to have watch or some other valu-
able article when, i'll fact, they merely
get some illustrated catalogue.
An extensive fraud has rec
emily been carried on by
certain persons claiming to he commits
sion merchants or produce dealers who
send out their circulars and price lists
offering prices higher than the market,
when in fact they have no commission
house, and probably only desk room in
a shop or saloon, and the goods shipped
to them are received and sold at any
price Obtainable, no returns whatever
being made.
Some time since appeared a very
glowing advertisement of book eXclu
sively for young unmarried people,
both gentlemen and ladies, the price OF
which was S.. For the S. very cheap
edition of the Bible was sent. A fine
timekeeper, with the cut of watch,
would be advertised for 81. The sender
would expect watch in return; but he
would get a sun-dial. Great frauds have
been carried ON by the proposed pub

Elaborate preparations are being
made for the entertainment under the
auspices of the st. Andrews society at
the Metropolitan theater on the 18th
inst. Two hundred young ladies and
children have been rehearSing for near

ers of history. Those participating
in the entertainment are not confined to
Scottish descent, all natIonalities being
included. The performers are now
about proficient in their parts, and yes
terday full rehearsal was given in the
Lyceum theater, Minneapolis. The
young performers were conveyed to the
Mill City i'll special cars over the Inter
urban line. The entertainment will
undoubtedly be one of the most inter-
esting that has been given by amateurs
In the city for many years. All the
Scottish dances will be given. and no
expense spared to make the affair sue
cess. A souvenir is to be presented to
every person attending the entertain
ment. and among other things it will
contain photographs of the children and

In recent cases, not OF more than two
years duration, Pe-ru-na, taken as
directed OH the bottle, will effect cure
in few weeks or months. The cure is
FASTENED by gradually increasing the
dose recommended on the bottle to a
double dose. But cases like the above,
where the discharge from the ear is of
long standing, and especially if it be of
fetid odOr, La-cu- pi-a should be taken
according to the directions on the label
until the system is thoroughly cleansed,
after which the Peru ma will complete

obtain q cure in single case. A cure
is within reach of all.
A valuable pamphlet of thirty-two
pages, setting forth in detail the treat
ment of catarrh, coughs, colds. sore
throat, bronchitis and consumption, in
every phase of the disease. will be sent
free to any address by The Pe-ru-na
Drug Manufacturing Company, OF Co

every household. as 1t contains a great
deal of reliable information as to the
cure and prevention of all catarrhal and
kindred diseases.

Rhea in GOSSIP"

Rhea delighted large audience at
the Metropolitan yesterday afternoon
by appearing in one of the most exquls-
tie little comedies with which transIa-
ton has graced the American stage.
Rhea, as the Countess de Ris. was in
her element. In the sparkling French
comedy she was at liberty to give rein
TO her brilliant personality. In Gossip"
Rhea Is enabled to give vent to that
sparkling humor which is at all times
characteristic of her; in word, to ''act
NATURAL" aud the result is charming to
an extent never attained by her in
heavier plays. The company well sup
ported the star, Miss Abel. as "Del-
phine," and j. R. Amory, as ''Pomerol,"
beng worthy of special praise.
