ceum, says:
Z" If 1 could, would take a harp from
out the great treasure room of melody,
wherever that is), and across its
strings 1 would throw a song for the
Smith sisters. They play upon the hu.
man emotions with grace and skill that
is born of genious. If there be such a
thing as a poem in music, their concert
is that poem. For two weeks they have
been deiighting immense audiences in
the West, singing and reading along the
mountains, from Wyoming. to New Mex.
leo In every city they have met with
universal approval. To say more than
this would be considered fattery to say
less would be to suppress the truth.

scanty to conform 20 the conventions pre-
valent in that respectable commonwealth.
The Snowman, who paid their fines in the
morning and delivered them out OF jurance,
explained that in their own coun-
try their garmenting amounted to
full dress, fit to go anywhere in. and that
they were not yet instructed in foreign
ideas Of dress and manners. He was al
lowed to carry them off, wrapped UP In
blankets and followed by most If the in
habitants Of the town, having thus engi-
neered an advertising feat of which the
most inventive and ing snjous press agent
might be proud.
