italian father and a German mother.
both musicians, but the mother. perhaps,
the better known Of the two She was a
pianiste Of standing, and was the only
master that Busoni ever had. When only
seven years old Busonl played with his
mother in public, and at sixteen we find
him winning at the Academy OF Bologne
medal for the best fugue written on a
given theme. The competitors were locked
in their rooms and allowed neither food
nor drink until they had finished the
task. Not since the days Of Mozart had
a youth Of sixteen won such honors.
Busonfs art is his religion, and he is
extremely serious and sincere In all mat
tiers pertaining to it. AS a man and a
comrade, however. he is full of wit and
humor. and in congenial company can
be as ''ausgelassen" as a child

Tiny little bows. almost as small as

They are fashioned from narrow bias

cut in exact lengths, so that the bows

FROM WOMANS'
POINT OF VIEW

This Is the season Of housecleaning-for
the body Rich and abundant food. irreg-
ular hours, and lack Of exercise IN the
fresh air have combined 10 clog the sys-
tenn and a change is much needed. Our
grandmothers mixed sulphur. molasses,
and cream or tartar and fed the family
with for month, following the rule OF
taking the dose three mornings before
breakfast and skipping three TO allow the
doses to work. It was an excellent Gus
tom. without doubt. cheap and wholesome,
but patent medicines have crowded It out
because they are easier to take and de-
mand no preparation.
An excellent blood cleanser at this sea-
son OF the year is phosphate OF soda In
powdered form. Il is an old remedy, but
It is guaranteed to clear the skin and i'm
prove the eyes. Sluggish blood can be
detected In both eyes and skin. and I
have seen wonders accomplished By Is
cents worth OF this medicine. It is taken
in water. one-half hour before breakfast,
a teaspoonful TO e glass. and if the water
is warm so much the better. 1t is not
disagreeable to my taste. and I know
others who rather ike it.
I cured the worst complexion I ever
saw by recommending this medicine and
a lotion Of mild saleratus water. Pimples
dried up without leaving scars and the
hue of health and cleanliness took the
place Of the muddy color which had
sorely vexed a girl who ought to have
always been good-looking. Now she
uses q face cream occasionally, and al
ways returns to the soda phosphate IN
the spring Of the year. I had not seen
her for three years till I met her at
concert last week and she was certainly
good to look upon.
She had suffered the humiliation OF an
ugly complexion for five years, unneoes-
sary suffering. as she now knows, but she
was never reconciled TO 1t. AT least three
skin specialists had a chance to prove
their skill. and she got no encouraging
results. It was little wonder that she
took no interest In my simple remedy till
her whole family urged her into a trial for
week at least. She must have seen
sufficient improvement in seven days to
make her keep on to the end.
II Is a good plan 20 cut out the heavy
breakfast cereal now and substitute fruit,
or If the cereal is practically the entire
breakfast, change 10 a lighter one Mo
notony is never good, and there are so
many palatable things for breakfast that
no excuse can be offered for q monote-
nous diet Toast and marmalade and cor-
Zee make a breakfast that satisfies many
Rppetites. and when berries become abun-
dant they figure largely IN the first meal
OF the day. The value Of fruit, either
cooked or raw, is not fully appreciated.
