wish Father to the Thought.

Much is being said throughout the coun-
try for and against the theory that Mr..
Roosevelts popularity has eliminated and
is now decreasing. We regard the discus
sion as Of the smallest possible interest,
because the reporters OF the alleged waning
are generally those TO whom waning
would he for one reason or another a well
come spectacle. We have not discerned the
faintest sign that in the esteem OF the
great mass of the American people-in the
quarters where Mr.. Roosevelt has always
been strongest and which must always be
the main source of his political influence
he stands now in mdwinter one millimeter
below where he stood in midsummer last.

LOHENGRIN IN CONCERT.
GREAT OPERA OF WAGNER IN
WooLsEF HALL, DECEMBER O.

This to be First of OratOriO's Two
brilliant Productions This Season
Subscribers Sale, Friday and Satur-
day, on Which Depends the sOciety's
Future.
The New Haven Oratorio society will
inaugurate the season of concerts in
Woolsey hall Wednesday evening, De-
cember 6, when they will give a con-
cert performance Of Richard Wagner's
great opera "Lohengrin." AS was the
plan last year, subscribers sale for
the course will be held in Woolsey hall,
Friday and Saturday, November 80
and December 1, beginning at 10 o'clock.
AT this sale a subscriber may secure
four choice seats, two for each concert,
by paying $4. The number of subscrib-
ers will determine whether or not the
society will be able to give the second
concert, at which it is hoped to sing
Brahms Requiem" and Mendelssohns
Hymn of Praise"
New Haven supported oratorio well
last winter and had reason to fell proud
of the artistic achievements of her
chorus. The program outlined for this
winter is the most ambitious and beau
tiful ever attempted by local singers
and is one which will afford much
pleasure to music lovers.
Therefore the subscribers sale which
is the mainstay of the Oratorio society
should be inspiring in numbers and en-
thuSiasm.
Lohengrin is Wagners most melodi-
Gus opera and the one of the great
Richards operas which lends itself ad-
mirably to concert performance. The
ohorwses are glorious, many Of them
falling to the mems voices alone Then
there is the loveliest of all chOruses for
womens voices, the wedding music. AS
for the solos there are gems of song
for each of the six solojsts that make
up the cast.
The array of sololsts who will sing
| Lohengrin is notable Every artist Is
high in rank and has won plaudits and
encomiums for Oratorio work, times
without number. Elsa will be sung by
Madame Muir Hardy, the difficult con-
tralto part of Ortrud by Miss Panet
Spencer, a since artist. Telramund will
be capable presented by Claude Cum
ningham, the baritone who was booked
osing in Woolsey hall two years ago,
and was prevented by illness, and Lo-
hengrin will be sung by William Veg
ener, who made such success at the
Worcester festival; the Herald will be
sung by William Harper, and the King
by Frank Croxton, who has won in
Vulnerable laurels here in Verdi's Re
QUEEN" a few years ago and in many
of the great festivals in the country.

NO COFFEE
The Doctor Said.

Coffee slavery is not much different
from alcohol or any other drug. But
many people don't realize that coffee
contains a poisonous, habit-forming
drug-caffeine.
They get into the habit of using cot
fee, and no wonder, when some writer
for respectable magazines and papers
speak of coffee as harmless"
OF course it doesn't paralize one in
a short time like alcohol, or put one
to sleep like morphine, but it slowly
acts on the heart kidneys and nerves,
and soon forms a drug-habit, just the
same, and one that is the cause of
many overlooked ailments.
Il wish to state for the benefit of
other coffee slaves" writes a VT young
lady, "What Postum Food Coffee has
done for me.
up to year ago I thought I could
not eat my breakfast if 1 did not have
at least cups of coffee, and some
times during the day, if very tired, I
would have another cup.
II was annoyed with indigestion,
heart trouble, bad feeling in my head,
and sleeplessneps. Our family doctor,
whom consulted, asked me if I drank
coffee. I said I did and could not get
along without it,
''He told me it was the direct cause
of all my ailments, and advised me to
drink Postum l had no faith in it,
but finally tried it. The first cup was
not boiled long enough and was dis
tasteful, and 1 vowed l would not drink
any more.
"But after a neighbor told me to cook
1T longer 1 found Postum was much
superior in fiaver to my coffee. l am
no longer nervous, my stomach troubles
have ceased, my heart action is fine,
