MDiLE. DOLORES
TUESDAY EVENING

The charming lady who will sing to
US Tuesday night may not be Queen
OF the Eastern Sea- but she is certain
iy a Queen of Song. Mdlle. Dolores is
no stranger in this city. OF late she has
been making great triumphs in Austria
liza. AS an artist there are few greater
thai the lady who has visited us on
former occasions with so little ostenta-
ton, and IN the rendering of the old
fashioned ballads and songs of the Six
teenth Century there are few who can
be reckoned as her equals. We may
claim this credit that Mdlle. Dolores
has been well appreciated here in the
past; that the public have understood
her art, and recognized her greatness.
It was only when she followed Melba
that Sydney and Melbourne people
awoke to her claims. Her art became
apparent to them by means of COM
parison. Then Mdlle Dolores became
the rage; she was received with en-
thusiasm; new star had arisen. We
have now nothing to say of Dolores that
we have rot said a dozen times: we
have no appreciation TO offer that we
have not expressed; and the people can
offer her no greater sign of favor than
they have given over and over again.
Dolores in her especial work is incom-
parable; in any work she is a great
artist. and people must understand that
though they travel the world over they
viii find few who can be classed with
her as singer. We welcome her back,
and hope that her triunphs may be re-
peated.

Governor Leaves Reorganization
of the Board OF Health
to That Body.

Important changes are to he made in
the personnel of the Board Of Health
as a result of the special meeting held
yesterday by that body. Governor
Dole requested the members of the
Board to suggest to him what changes
they desired in the Board to conform
with the new law passed by the Leg
isIature, and which provides for four
layrnen and but two physicians.
The difficulty as to which medical
member would be compelled to step
down because of the new law was
easily solved Dr. w. L. Moore stated
to the Board that he had sent his res
ignation to the Governor early in the
week, step he had been contemplate
ing for several months.
/Mr. E. A. Mott-Smith, whose term of
office expires on May Z. requested that
he be not reappointed. His place must

members have been untiring in pro-
noting the work of the Board. and the
sincerest regret was expressed at their
action.

designation as President, as the law re-
duires that the Governor shall appoint
this official. Governor Dole, however,
his intention Of appointing
whoever was chosen by the Board, and
DR.. Cooper was thereupon reelected.
The Board also agreed to suggest to |
the Governor to fill the vacancies in |
that body. the names OF A Gartley and |
L. z. Psnkham being proposed.
1t is probable that Governor Dole |
will send to the Senate his nominations |
upon the Board Of Health to take the |
place of the present Board The new |
Board will very likely be as follows:

CONFIDENCE

said Lord Chatham, "is a plant
of slow growth" People believe
In things that they see, and in a
broad sense they are right. What
Is sometimes called blind faith is
not faith at all. There must be
reason and fact to form a foun-
dation for trust. In regard to a
medicine or remedy, for example,
people ask, elias it cured 9TH
ers: Have cases like mine been
relieved by it? Is it in harmony
with the truths Of modern science,
and has it a record above suspic-
ion? If so, it is worthy of conf
dence; and if / am ever attacked
by any of the maladies for which
it is commended / shall resort
to it in full belief in its pow
er to help me-" On these lines
WAMPOLE:S PREPARATION

mong medical men, and the
people of all civilized countries.
They trust it for the same reason
that they trust in the familiar

vAsELINE 40 GOOD FOR HAIR.

Dandruff Germs Thrive in 1t, as Well
as in Grease.
A well known Chicago hair specialist
invited the Inter Ocean reporter to
come to his office and see, under a
microscope, how the germ that causes
dandrun thrives in Easeline. The spe-
cialist said that all hair preparations
containing grease, simply furnished
food for the germs and help to propa-
gate them. The only way to cure dan
druff is to destroy the germs. and the
only hair preparation that will do that
is Newbro'S Herpicide. Destroy the
cause, you remove the effect" With
cut dandruff no falling hair, no bald
ness. Ask for Herpicide 1t is the only
destroyer of the dandruff germ.

When we entered our store this
morning we found the fruit in an argu-
ment as to who was the most valuable.
Mr.. Orange said he was most valuable
as he had been bringing from 35 to
90 cts per dozen. Mr.. Banana con-
tended that he was worth more, that
he could be sold at 25 cts per doz. Mr..
Lemon was very much on his ear, said
he would sour an Hoffman II he didn't
quit selling him for 25 cts per dozen,
being such a fine looking fellow. Mr..
Apple jumped up out of the barrel
with bright red blush on his face and
exclaimed such fellows as me are
worth so cts a peck. Mr.. Grapes a
fine cultured gentleman made Date lay
down at once at 20 cts per pound
against Mr.. Date at 2pounds for 25cts.
We settled the matter by calling them
all up to have drink at the fountain
when they returned to their respective
places for the days business.
