to Democrats who deserted the
party during those campaigns and
lent their aid and comfort to the

Consumption

Salt pork is a famous old
fashioned remedy for con-
sumption. "Eat plenty of
pork was the advice to the
conSumptive 50 and 100
years ago.
Salt pork is good if a man
can stomach it. The idea
behind it is that fat is the
food the conSumptive needs
most.
Scott sEmulSionis themod-
ern method of feeding fat to
the consumptive. Pork is too
rough for sensitive stomachs.
SCOTS Emulsion is the most
refined Of fats, especially
prepared for easy digestion.
Feeding him fat in this
way, which is often the only
way, IS half the battle, but
SCOTS Emulsion does more
than that. There is some
thing about the combination
of cod liver oil and hypophoS-
phiteS in SCOTS Emulsion
that puts new life into the
weak parts and has a special
action on the diseased lungs.

d" 'Tis not In mortals to command sue
cess, sempronius: but well do more-we'H
deserve It," This - or should be the
motto Of every actor, but II is a dreary
road that leads them on under the shadow
OF public indifference to the sun-llt
heights on which they hope some day 70
bask. In these times when so much Of the
stage is devoted to the presentation Of
what is indifferently worthless, II not alb
s%olutely harmful, when a company Of ac-
tors undertakes to produce plays Of ad-
mitted merit. the people should encourage
the endeavor by giving liberal support. This
is the only way in which they can hope
to secure what is good. So long as they
pour out their money to see what they
know is trash and neglect what they know
Is good, so long will the stage languish. II
the public wants good plays the people
must attend the theater when good plays
are offered.
Another point in this connection is
worthy Of consideration However familiar
one may become with the text of Shakes
peare through study, something OF the in
dehnable essence Of the poets thought is
certain to be missed for lack of back
ground against which to project ones own
NSaNNkNAoh vi ANo anil III boNh
ground is best furnished by the actor who
intelligently speaks the lines. In this
way alone does the written character take
on life, and the physical as well as the
psychical receive the embodiment neces-
sary to an intelligent grasp for purposes
of comparison. The assistance thus al
forded the student is beyond estimation.
Nor is the student the only one who would
gain in this way. Every reader has more
or less acquaintance with the great poet,
and to all such the presentation of a
S-hakespearean play ought to be looked
upon in the light Of a great opportunity.
In no other way can a full sense of the
noble language be obtained, and surely in
no other way can the magnificent imagery
OF the poets thought be realized. What
a pleasure 1t is to listen to we'll known
lines as they are uttered by a trained
elocutionist, catching the familiar words
and phrases as they are spoken ~"trippingly
on the tongue" and gaining a newer or a
fuller notion of the meaning Of each quo
tation we have used so patty by hearing
1t in its proper relation to the whole, its
real value being thus enforced by any pre-
conceived idea Of its intrinsic worth. This
is not the least of the rewards one has in
listening to the players of a Shakespearean
piece. The majesty Of the English Ian
guage in it's purity is another consldera-
ton that should draw the lovers Of our
noble tongue to the theater on these oc-
casions.
Omaha daily bee., 1903-04-19

These are only a few Of the many rea-
sons that might be cited in support OF the
proposition that no performance of a
Shakesperean or other classic play by a
competent company should ever be missed
by a genuine lover Of the drama. 1t mat
tiers not how many times the piece has
been given, nor by whom; its beauties are
inexhaustible, and its merits grow with
familiarity. Even a mediocre company may
give you a new light on some phrase or
passage. At all events the experiment Is
always worth the while.

and "whoop it up for them because we
have already had our May Festival"
As a proof Of the interest with which
the singers have continued the work. l
may mention that I have already been
asked many times IL the work would be
resumed next year. That cannot be an
swered now. But the musical director OF
the Festival choir will either increase that
next year to 200 voices, and conduct that.
(f agreeable, OF course, to those inter
ested), or else he will conduct a very ex-
elusive musical society limited TO fifty
voices, for the pure study Of the various
styles Of choral music.
On Tuesday evening the friends of Mr..
Carl F. Steckelberg will have an opportun-
ity to express their appreciation OF him and
OF his work in a tangible way. He will
give his farewell concert at the Kountze
Memorial church, and he will very shortly
sail for Europe, where he will spend sew
eral years in study. He will be assisted
at this concert by Miss Marie Hoover, a
distinguished Lincoln pianiste. and by his
father, Mr.. Henry steckelberg, '%cellist. The
program will open with the Grieg sonata
No. II, op. 10, the Russian Airs" of

and a group consisting OF the G-string air

To complain that you do not know the
actors is not a'good excuse. Once in his
life at least every actor was unknown.
Even the stars of today who have not
risen through the dreary ways that lead
from obscurity to fame either come to the
stage with a past Of unquestioned dinginess,
or are Immediately provided with one. Fame
is merely the recognition Of talent or abiI-
ity that has long existed end the fact
that an artist is not already famous Is not
10 argue that he does not deserve fame.
