S|GNOR L|bERAT|

"This so-called high appreciation
OF music in Germany and Italy is all
foolishness," said Signor A. Liberati
at Natatorium park Wednesday aft
ernoon. ut makes me tired. Some
Americans seem to- think that Ger
mans and Italians do nothing but
walk around singing and whistling
grand opera tunes. tell you, they
like their rag time and folk songs
just the same as you do in Amer
ica."
Signor Liberati is emphatic in
saying that the appreciation of the
classical in music is every whit as
great in America as in the old
country. He says that he arranges
the same program for Spokane as
he does for Berlin, Paris, London or
Florence, and" he adds signifi-
cantly, I'm not so sure but that
Spokane's citizens care more for
Italian grand opera than do the
Florentines."
The following program has been
arranged for this evening at 7:15:

The Exposition building was built
in 1887, at a cost of 100000. and
was one Of the landmarks Of Port

The first industrial fair ever held
in Portland was housed in the build

ORDINANCE
IS WE'D

Chief Sullivans autocratic ordin-
ance, which If passed in its entirety
would give him dominion over the
highways and byways of the city Of
Spokane. was introduced before the
city council, but on account of the
didactic manner of some of its
clauses. was turned down temporar-
lily, and laid over until the meeting
OF the council next Tuesday night.
The opposition to immediate consid-
Grafton of the bill. which Chief Sui
Ivan has endeavored to have con-
sidered for some time past was
led by Councilman Robert Dalke.
The ordinance as It was present
ed last night, in slightly amended
form to what 1t has been In the
past, covered the regulation OF all
traffic on the streets, fixes speed
limits for automobiles and other
motor vehicles, and even governs
loafing on sidewalks, fences and
ratings. 1t fails to make any pro-
vision for those who might want to
sit on a barb wire fence.

When the patient has apparently

Nearly five years before, John

hour on the quay at Palermo to
enjoy the limpid Sicilian night.
Alone at first, he was presently

The overmastering desire for extremes
is again manifested in the steady ad-
vance Of the hip length, semi-fitting coat
on tailor-made costumes as contrasted
with the full-length paletot coat.
For the moment. in all quarters that
count, the seven-eighths coat is held in
allegiance. There is an unquestionably
trim, natty appearance about the first
named. more especially when the fronts
are cut sharply away just above the
waist, and below large revers shaped at
a sharp angle. The leading maitres tall
Ieurs des danes are insistent on this par
ticular rever aspect in preference to the
elongated style so prevalent with the long
wrap. the alternative choice being a
fastening carried right up to the throat
at the left-hand side, when a finish Is
afforded by narrow, softly padded fold
of fur, with one pendent end. Indeed. the
growing favor accorded the attached fur
tie cannot possibly be ignored.

A Headache Cure.

II instead Of drinking strong cup of
tea or coffee when suffering with a bad
headache a woman would drink cup
of hot milk she would be more apt to
cure the pain. Not because hot milk has
medicinal properties, but because it is
more easily digested than tea or coffee,
and soothes instead of stimulates the
nerves.
Oyers.imulation of the nerves is one OF
the common causes Of headache, and so
of course not until the tension has been
relaxed can such pain be ailayed. Not
every woman so affected can lie down
quietly and rest but there is no need of
any one adding to the excited state OF
the nerves, and that Is precisely what tea
or coffee does. Obviously something
which will quiet nerves Is reaui.e ed, ana
for this purpose hot milk becomes vau-
able.
Not always, unfortunately. can milk be
drunk when a woman is suffering from
headache, because an upset stomach ire
quently accompanies pain IN the head,
and to take milk under those cond lions
would only. increase nausea. simple
substitute for milk that is not to be de-
spised is water Us hot as it can be slpped.
Not tepid water. Such temperature as
lukewarm might cause nausea, ou, neat the

undue strain on the muscles, and may
even calm them to rest and relief.
Another help is to prevent STR ng hght
from reaching the eyes OF a person VINO
is suffering from nervous headache.
Consciously or not. a glare will increa sc
the pain by straining the nerves of the
eyes.
sometimes hot applications on the eyes
aid in bringing relief but there are par
sens who are made vastly more III by
hot lamentations, and to whom cold ones
are beneficial. This is point each pa
