Consumption: ii

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 consurnptive needs
most.
scott's sEmulsionisthemod-
e-n 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 Scott's Emulsion
that puts new life into the
weak parts and has a special
action on the diseased lungs.

GREATEST SIGHT READER.
Camille Saint-Saens at Seventy the
Wonder of the Age.

From the Musical Age.
The great French composer who Is to be
our guest In a few months-Camille Saint
Saens-was seventy years old on September
2. He was born in Paris In 1885. His
father dying when he was very young.
Saint-Saens' training devolved upon his
mother and great aunt. The latter, be-
ing very musical, gave him his earliest In
struction on an old-fashioned spinet, an in
strument which he still treasures. At seven
he had lessons Of Stamaty, and a little
later studied harmony with Maledon. At
twelve he entered Benoit's class at the con-
servatory. taking the second organ prize in
1S49 and the first in 1851. Although twice
unsuccessful in obtaining the much-coveted
Grand Prix de Rome QS52 and 1864, he
subsequently outranked the successful conn.,
petitors in the larger forms of compost
ton and in general musicianship. His aG-
vancement was rapid AT sixteen he COM
posed his first symphony, which was given
with great success by the Societe de ST.
Cecile. In 1868 he became organlst or the
Church of st. Merri, and soon after that
principal professor at Neidermeyers Ecole
Religieuse. From 1858 to 1877 he was or
ganist at the Madeleine, where his execu-
ton and fertile improvisations were greatly
admired. During all this time he was busy
teaching, composing, producing many SYM
chamber music, in which branch he was
particularly successful, owing to his mastery
of art form and cantatas. In 1867 he was
awarded the first prize by the interna uonal
exhibition for his cantata, "Noces de Prom
ethee," over which the critics were very en-
thusastic in their praise. His orchestral
pieces are written with care for detail,
full of combinations that give picturesque
coloring, and contrapuntal in construction.
He is above all melodst, and has no use
for composers-like Strauss-who produce
cacophonous program music. HIS most
popular works are his 'Phaeton, Dams
Macabre" and LIE Rouet d Omphale, for
orchestra; his cdntata, Samson ct DELLA
and his piano concertos. AS a piano and
organ virtuoso he ranks very high. having
acquired quite a reputation in both capaci-
ties by his visits to Germany, Russia, Aus
tria, England Che recently played In London
in conjunction with Holman, the cellist,
who Is to tour this country the coming sea-
son. Spain and Portugal. 1t is even said
that he and d Albert are the greatest sight
readers in the world. Besides this. YER
satility as creator and executant OF mu-
sic, Saint-Saens is also distinguished mu-
steal critic, being a contributor to a num-
Der of important periodicals. In 1881 ne
was elected member of the French In
stitut, in place of Henri Reber' deceased.
