4 BUDGET OF GENERAL NEWS ITEMS

In the musical drouth prevailing through
this portion of the local season, the assur-
ance of PATHS coming here within a fort
night seems like the shadow of great rock
in a thirsty land.
This event, sure to be one of much signif-
icance in the world of fashion, at least, will
transpire on Saturday evening, March
5, at the Auditorium, Penn avenue,
The magic name of Patti has
moved the lessee of that rather barn-like
structure to undertake some further i'm
provements, such as putting in complete
steam heating system, refting the stage and
generally furnishing up the place into the
best practicable semblance of a temple of
music fit for La Diva.
Mr.. G. E. Kepple, the enterprising local
manager, states that the whole Patti con-
cert troupe will be here, to the number of
IS souls. These will, no doubt, include
Guile, Del Puente, Novara and one or two
other solo artists, together with the only
Arditi, prince Of italian conductors, and a
small orchestra. 1t will be a straight con-
cert, without the ''operatic" absurdity that
Is often tackled on at the end.
Of course Adelipa Patti is not O great
musical artist in the fullest sense of the
term. Artistic sincerity and breadth, as
well as originality in the creation of new
roles, are qualities that she honors more
in the breach than in the observance. Her
claim to her worldwide fame lies In herself,
not in her devotion to art
But it is equally true that in herself as
an example of well-nigh perfect vocal
organ allied to the purest method and a
style ample for the class of music she essays,
she has claim superior to that OF any
singer the present, or the last preceding
generation can remember. And from
all reports she seems to have preserved
her voice-losing, of course, none of her
other attractions-to a degree that seems
marvellous. By singing only about one-half
as often as other famous artists and taking the
very best care of herself between times she
has retained through a career Of eItraordi-
nary length her unimpaired power to de-
light the lovers of pure, Italian singing, and
has at the same time unwontedly prolonged
and magnifed the harvest of gold that al
ways ripens so much faster as the artists
fame increases

Last week Drs. Copeland, Hall and Byers
published the symptoms of catarrh as. it
often affects the entire system. This week
they present the symptoms which are prin-
cipally confined to the local affection COM
monty known as dyspepsia or catarrh of the
stomach and bowels. These symptoms not
only vary in different individuals, but in
the same individual at different times; the
most constant is an abnormal appetite; it
may be lost, increased or perverted. There
is weight, dull pain and sense of burning
in the pit Of stomach after taking food, ac-
companied by hatulence, heart burn, gas
tralgia, constipation or diarrhpa, uull
headache, languor, depression of spirits and
frritability OF temper. Indiscretfon in eat

frequent regurgitation OF q thin, watery sa-
line fluid, preceded by epigastric pains.
Sometimes there is pain at the beart, ac-
compan1ed by palpitation and shortness OF
breath, making the patient think he has the
heart disease. Accompanying soma cases
there is dizziness, ringing in the ears. spots
before the eyes, and other sensations which
together are called "stomachlc vertigo

there is a short, dry cough and occasional
paroxysms of an asthmatic character. The

in order by practical tests to give the public

All diseases which profoundly affect
tho nutrition influence the develop
ment Of the teeth; and since the
growth of the teeth is mainly limited
to the age of childhood, their condi-
tion is especially influenced by child
ren's diseases.
Faulty nutrition or severe wasting
illness show themselves nowhere more
prominently than in the development
of the bones and teeth; and OH tho
other hand good teeth in children play
very important part in producing a
heallhful and robust manhood or
womanhood. Decaying and loosened
teeth directly favor imperfect ma,tica-
ton and consequent indig estion.
Indigestion favors poor nutrition
