That art is appreciated by some of
our citizens was demonstrated yester-
day. There had been on exhibition
only a few moments, at Calder's music
palace, two beautiful Steinway pianos,
one q Baby Grand, dark mahogany,
the other a Grand in upright form,
which for fine quality of tone and
beauty of cases, certainly places them
in the highest ranks of art and perfec-
ton. These instruments were imme-
diately purchased by one of our lead
ing citizens, who may we'll feel proud
of possessing such beautiful pianos.
The d. o. Calder's Sons may also feel
proud of being representatives of the
great house of Steinway & Sons.

One night I sat in the Casino 1t
was during the first run Of "'Erminie.'
L heard a lady behind me say: 'I like
Wilson! But they do say he drinks
like fish,
Let me answer the libel in Wilson's
own words. We were talking of pro-
fessional life He said:
Il have never smoked a cigar, nor a
pipe, nor a cigarette. I have never
drank a glass of liquor or beer in my
life. Once in Paris I had a little claT-
ct, with very much water. I take no
credit for this. Nature made me so.
do not drink even tea or coffeeI'
1 tell this little story simply as one
more illustration to those 1 have given
of how much the men and women on
the stage are maligned by popular gos-
sip.
Wilson is an artist He worked his
way up, not. like Dixey from the hind
legs of a heifer, but from the vaude-
vile stage. He is student, a worker,
a man who learned to fence that he
might be graceful, who learned French
to study French drama.
He has one Weakness-candy.
So, you girls, don't send him flowers,
but a box of Huyler's best.
