A friend OF mine was in Kansas City last
Sunday and he heard that most delectable
combination church quartet-and the So
prano sang the onertory solo. What do
you suppose II was? In a very prominent
Grand Avenue church. in a city which is
supposed to be musical. That "loveliest Of
love songs-'Loye's Sorrow by Harry
Rowe Shelley, adapted or rather unadapted
10 sacred words. This is like singing
Jesus, Lover Of Ny Soul" to the tune Of
When the Swallows Homeward Fly"
Another friend Of mine heard a Lincoln
singer in a very prominent and beautiful
church in that city sing, for an onertory
solo, recently, a jargon Of sacred words to
q tune from The Burgomaster."
This Is the kim Of stun one must expect
from the average quartet choir. Thank
Heaven. the people are now being thor
oughly awakened TO the fact that the only
reasonable church music is to be found In
the full choir with chorus.
Nowadays It is an honor TO be a choir
singer. times have changed. and those who
are studying ensemble music can find no
better way TO do it than by getting into
q good choir.

Resuming the thread Of the Kowslsky
argument l find these words descriptive Of
the social effect Of Americans studying
abroad:
Aside from the financial feature to Amer
lea and Americans Il saves our children
from exile. The majority Of the young
men who go abroad never return to this
country. Many OF them become inoculated
with the vagrant and Bohemian habits
that are prevalent in the respective Latin
quarters Of the big cities of Europe. They
dress and ape the foreigners and waste
their time about the cafes. The life is free
and indolent and in place Of becoming stu
time. but spending the ha~rd-earned MONEY
Of their parents, many OF whom deny
themselves comforts at home in order to
maintain the Indifferent member OF the
family abroad. . . We have Paderew-
skis. Koeberlicks, Ysayes. Geraldys, Sar-
asates, born in America, but who have
lacked opportunity. therefore nobody knows
OF them; while these foreigners come here,
are worshiped by American audiences and
take away great sacks of American coin.
| America has led in everything financial and
mechanical and II the musical youth OF our
| country Is permitted to develop under gov
to predict nat America will commence to
send musical wonders abroad. The amount
of money required to carry out this grand
project is so infnitesimally small when
compared with the great amounts the ma
ton is spending annually In many other
directions that the money II will take can
not possibly deter any patriotic legislator
who loves his country and his people from
voting to appropriate the sum required.
Omaha daily bee., 1902-06-01

To my mind, one OF the very greatest
advantages to be derived from a National
Conservatory of Music and Art would be
the incentive to a patriotic spirit Of en-
coursgement of our own people in their
work. When the cautious and deliberative
Uncle Samuel starts things we usually
fall heartily in line and follow his lead.
After ali, We must be taught the lesson
Of faith in ourselves. We should stand for
the best work that is being done by our
OWN people. Patriotism Of this sort counts
for more than pyrotechnics. Let US all be
Americans!

And the trouble with every quartet choir
that l have ever heard is that no one mem
Der seems TO realize the necessity Of study
ing TO sing to and with" the other parts.
Each one takes his OF her own part as a
solo regardless OF the others. In the choral
works one learns, or should learn, the Sec
ret Of the ensemble" No one can be a
hrst-class singer in a quartet, who has not
served apprenticeship under the conduc-
tors baton In a chorus. AS a proof of this.
any prominent conductor will go on record
as TO the difficulty OF securing good en-
semble effects from singers, who individ-
ually may be artists.

Following up the thought expressed In
this column last week in regard TO the pro-
posed National Conservatory OF Music and
Art / will quote the second paragraph OF
the argument furnished by Mr.. Kovalsky
in his able pamphlet as to why America
should have such an institution. He says:
At the present time, at q conservative
dents abroad scattered in the different
cities Of Europe. The minimum sum for
which they can b. maintained In the cheap
est and most economical parts OF Europe
l. equivalent to 50 per Gay, which means

Americans spend S75.Coo,Oo0 trying to. obtain
an education in music and art abroad, while

is, the National Conservatory in four cities,
as described last week. can be fully
equipped and conducted upon the very

annum-

TennysOn's Vanity.

Charles Stewart, a British lawvor
published a volume of "reminiscences
ana IN it tells two stories about Tennv-
sen whom he found self conscious and
accessible to fiattery.
"A little niece of mine" he relates
was one day standing beside his chair
lie lifted her up and placed her ON his
knee Tor half a minute, and then he
put her down, saying, Now You can
say you have sat on Tennyson's
knee"
On another occasion Tennyson was
Jowetts guest at the Masters Lodge.
Baliol. with a few other men. and aft.
er some good talk the poet had retired
early to his room. Next morning at
breakfast Tennyson was in silent
mood, but as the men were rising from
the table he said: "Jowett, after I left
you last night | wrote a few verses. I
am not sure that have ever done any,
thing better. l will read them to Won !"
Jowett, preparing to go off for his
days work, replied hastily: "Oh. no:
thank you, TennysOn. I've no time for
that sort of thing just now. | am very

sunday Ethics.

AS grown up folks are divided on the
question of what is proper and what is
not proper to do on the Sabbath. per-
haps two little girls, neighbors in West
Eighty-second street. may be forgiven
for mild dispute overheard one recent
Sunday afternoon. Both little maids
were freshly dressed and were evident
ly out upon the steps for breath of
air after their dinners. The younger
one, full of the joy of living. was wcrk-
ing off some of her youthful spirit by
walking up one side of the stone steps
and down the other.
'Oh, you Oughtn't to do that on Sun
day. 1t isn't right, and your mamma
won't like it. That's what they call
breaking the Sabbath" said the older
ore, about twelve years old. She was
standing still and looking very re-
proachfully at her companion.
"Well, l don't care. What's a girl to
do outdoors Sunday?" petulantly asked
the little girl.
"Why, nothing, of course. Just stand
around. New York Post.

ARRANGEMENTS MADE,
A Deal Closed that will Benefit
Everyone in this Town.
Hereafter We Will be Sole Repre-.
SentatiVeS Of vinCI.

Vinol is attracting attention in every
large city in the country.
The best druggists in every place rep.
reSentS VINOL.
They do this because they have inves-
tigated and become convinced of its mer-
its. 1t is this that has led us to get the
agency for this town.
We are happy to announce that we
have succeeded in our endeavors.
We were told that no proprietary med
icine has ever been so popular as vi
MOL. We have learned that the reason
for this is because VINOL is really an
old remedy, produced in a new form,
and is now altogether delicious and
doubly potent.
Vinol is a scientific tonic reconstructor
comprised of the curative principles of
cod liver oil and little organic iron dis
solved in delicious table wine. That is
all-nO Oil-nO grease - no disagreeable
features, but all the medicinal virtues of
cod liver oil and more.
There is no one living who will dis
pute the merits of cod liver oil as a re-
builder of the human system.
The trouble before has been that but
few people could take cod liver oil on
account of its obnoxious taste and ter
rible Odor.
With Vinol, however, everything is
changed. You will get every bit of the
good that was ever found in cod liver
oil and, best of all, you will get this good
without particle of grease to help re-
tard its action.
The way VINOL accompliShes it's mis-
sion is better than it was ever possible
for cod liver oil to bring about the same
results. This is because the elements
needed are now in more highly cOncen-
trated form.
We are sure that all our customers
will like VINOL very much and we an
ticipate large and permanent sale for
it.
We also aScertained and wish every
one else to realize the fact, that VINOL
is not patent medicine. 1t is simply a
new way of administering the curative
elements of cod liver oil.
We want all who are sick to call and
let us tell them about VINOL, we want
to convince our patrons that we have
been working in their behalf as we'll as
in our own, and we hope that everyone
of our fellow townspeople will appre
ciate our enterprise in procuring the
agency for this popular medicine and o1
being the means of bringing VINOL
here. We are glad we are going to rep.
resent VINOL; to do this has caused
much rivalry in the large cities between
the best druggists, for only to the best
druggists in each place has this agency
been awarded.
If anyone buying Vinol of us is not
satisfied that it does all we claim, Wa
will refund the money that they have
paid us. VINOL is always sold under
this guarantee.

"Take care of, YOURSELF" say our friends.
'I'll try to-" we answer. We do take little
care, yet in spite of warm clothes, rubbers
and mackintoshes, an army of people were
bowled out by pneumonia and other lung
and chest diseases last winter. They
caught cold, neglected it, let it fix upon
them, were torn by coughs, choked by
inhammations and congestions, wasted by
fever, tired out by pain and then gave up
the fight. The hour you realize that you
have a cold on the chest, place Benson's
Porous Plaster where the pain or oppres-
sion is felt. If you think two are needed
make it two. No harm if you were COW
cred with them. They act quickly and
prevent the engagement of blood in the
organs. In this way-with ordinary eau.
tion as to exposure-you will break up the
cold and avoid a serious sickness. No
other applications. or any other form of
treatment, will accomplish this as certainly
and speedily. Benson's Flasters have dis
tinct and positive action and are curative to
the highest degree. Use them with the same
confidence for coughs, muscular rheuma-
tism, the grip (back and chest) and all sim
liar ailments. Women, who are chief suffer-
ers from cold weather complaints, should
keep these plasters always within reach.
Get the genuine. All druggists, or we will
prepay postage on any number ordered in
the United States on receipt of Csc. each.

THE HOME GOLD CURE.
An Ingeninus Treatment by Which Drunk
ards are Being Cured Daily in Spite
of Treatment.


of Treatment.
1t is now generally known and un-
derstood that Drunkenness is a disease
and not weakness. A body filled with
poison, and nerves completely shat
tered by periodical or constant use of
intoxicating liquors, requires an anti
dote capable of neutralizing and eradi-
eating this poison, and destroying the
craving for intoxicants. Sufferers
NAV now cure themselves at home
without publicity or loss of time from
business by this wonderful "Home
Gold Cure" which has been perfected
after many years of close study and
treatment of inebriates. The faithful
use according to directions of this won
derful discovery is positively guaran-
teed to cure the most obstinate case, no
matter how hard drinker. Our rec
cords show the marvellous transforma-
ton of thousands of DRINKERS into
sober industrious and upright men.
Wives cure your husbandsl Children
cure your fathers This remedy is in no
sense nostrum but it is specific for
this disease only, and is so skillfully
devised and prepared that it is thor
oughly soluable and pleasant to the
taste, so that it can be given in cup
of tea or coffee without the knowledge
of the person taking it. Thousands of
Drunkards have cured themselves with
this priceless remedy, and as many
more have been cured and made tenn
perate men by having the "Cure" ad
ministered by loving friends and rela-
tives without their knowledge in cof-
fee or tea, and believe to-day that they

Treatment of Face MoIes.

A hairy mole which is still growing
should be removed at once. even at the
risk of some injury to the skin. 1t is
now probably no more than pleXus Of
capillary vessels. with only a small
supply of connective tissue. There is
also a likelihood that it has not yet in
,volved the skin. If this be it's condi-
ton, the skin over the tumOr may be
reflected in flaps, and the tumor itself
strangulated with ligature in one of
the usual ways. The flaps should then
be replaced, and the result will be a
minimum of cicatrix and deformity.
But if the nRvus be allowed to grow
it will become large. highly vascular,
erectile tumor, probably invading and
involving the skin, liable to profuse
hemorrhage if injured, yet still quite
amenable to treatment, though of a
less simple kind. The modes of treat
ing n@vi are numerous and are contin-
ually increasing.
The Whip Tree.
In the island of Jamaica grows
tree, with the botanic name Daphne
lagetto, from the branches of which
native wOrkmen make peculiarly strong
and excellent whips, which have the
handle and lash all of a piece. The
handle consists of a part of the stem
retaining the bark. For the lash the
stem is deprived of bark and then split
into strips. which are woven together
in q flexible cord six or seven feet in

strips as the end of the lash is ap-
