this is much more pleasing and slightly

lines, except that both ends are drawn
up and finished with tasSrls and loops,
though one is left open to receive the
warmer. Little bottles filed with hot
salt, then tightly corked, are slipped in
the case and the open end drawn to-

the silk crochet purse Of long ago, as
the hand warmer, though matching the
colors of the hot water bottle case, is
made of heavy silk in crochet.

The most prominent event on the So
cial tablet for next week is the Cham
Der concert at the Temple theater next
Friday evening. AS early as last Wed
nesday box parties we're arranged and
numerous other plans are on foot to
give the artists a royal welcome. Mr.
J. P. Vollmer and party will occupy
the lower right hand box, while in the
opposite one will be Mrs. B. T. Scher-
merhorn, Mrs. E. H. Libby, MISS
Zuoriel Libby, Mr.. and Mrs. McNary,
Mrs. Harry Baugnman, Mr.. and Mrs.
Hudson Jones, Mr.. Harry Adams, Mr.

Mrs. F. NJ. Hinkley, of Charleston, Is
arranging a line party and also the
Senior Aid society of the Presbyterian
church will attend in body. Indeed,
the great musical treat in store for
Lewiston seems the only subject under
discussion.

of the Wagner club the Evening
Chronicle has this to say: "As a

derful technique and has repeatedly
held local audiences spellbound while
he was playing. Especially in his
numbers requiring rapid and fortis-
simo lingering is his ability prominent.
But it is not only in the heavier num-
bers in which he has proven himself
an artist. In the lighter and more ex-
presive numbers he has invariably
succeeded in bringing out the sweet
mes and sympathetic qualities in the
highest degree, charming his hearers.

known by the Spokane music loving
public as Mr.. Bernstein and is fully
the artist the former is. His violin
playing is typically artistic and he
has a faculty of making the most diff"
ficuIt numbers appear simple. There
is little of the exhibition in his style of
playing, his whole soul apparently be-
ing wrapped up in his music. AS the
concert meister in the great New York
orchestra he established himself in the
east as one of the leading violinists in
the country and those who have had
the pleasure of hearing him are ready
to agree with those who have previous
ly given him his high ranking.
The third member of the trio, Mr..
Hans Dressed, came to Spokane over
year ago when he took charge of the
Ensemble club as Ivp director. Mr..
Dressed has been heard frequently In
the city and his cello playing has al
ways gained him warm applause"
The prices to hear these artists has
been placed within the means of every
one In Lewiston-one dollar, seventy
five cents and fifty cents. Surely such
an opportunity should not be let pass
