January, the month with the Latin

England. Richard Verstegan, in his
Restitution of Decayed Intelligence
in Antiquities" curious book
published in 1878. writes: The month
which we now call January our Saxon
ancestors called wolf nonat,' to-wit,
wolf month"; because people are wont
always in that month to be in more
danger to be devoured of wolves than
in any season else of the year; for
that. through the extremity of cold
and snow. those ravenous creatures
could not find other beasts sufficient
to feed upon"

Cincinnati symphony Orchestra at tn,
HrnnhnIn

Cincinnati symphony Orchestra at the
BrandeiG,
When the Cincinnati Symphony orchestra
makes its next visit to Omaha II will be
greeted by a larger audience, but It is
doubtful II It will be greeted by any more
enthusiastic assemblage Of people who
know a good thing when they hear it, and
express their appreciation in the usual
manner, as did the fair-sized audience mot
smalD at the Brandeis theater yesterday
afternoon.
OF course the afternoon is a bad time for
an orchestral concert in any case; even
in a festival the matinee is usually but
SHINY attended. Those, however, who
missed the offering of the Cincinnati mu-
sicians under Leopold Stokovsky, con-
ductor, missed an opportunity OF hearing
some real music played in a most con-
vincing way under a conductor who came
here a stranger and went away from here
with the sincerest admiration and respect
of those who heard and felt the orchestral
expression of his genius and his work in
the rehearsal room.
Mr.. Leopold Stokovsky is a young man
OF power and individuality and he not
only dominates his orchestra but interprets
The works for his audience in such clear
manner tn. II one merely followed his
movements in directing section after sec
ton, one could hear the continuity OF prin-
cipaI themes and their treatment, even II
he knew but little of orchestral music.
His conducting is in itself an explanation
of the beautiful patterns and figures in the
musical fabrics woven by the masters.
His gestures and movements are full OF
meaning and he uses his hands in the
lrah n n
and nuance.
The great Fourth Symphony of TschGi-
koN sky. which he himself considerd his
greatest, was a Joy, and was listened to
with the closest attention by the audience
each movement being unanimously ap-
plauded. The exposition OF the symptoms
meaning in the composers own narrative
taken from a letter TO his best friend,
/ was a most helpful aid to the complete
/ enjoyment of the number.
The Schubert "Rosamunde" overture
coming after the wonderful modernity OF
the Russian music, proved its inherent
value. end did not suffer in contrast, a
one might have thought It would.
In the suite "L'Arlesienne' by Bizet tn,
third movement for the muted strings
! without bases was played in the most ten
der con an.ore" style, and it's repetition
was eagerly longed for, the applause beinI
determined and persistent But it was no
repeated.
The overture to "Tannhauser' by Rich
ard Wagner closed the program, and II
spite OF this old fRvorte, tho comparatiy,
weakness OF the strings showed up rattle
unfavorably, but the 'brasses did valian
work.
The concert will be remembered. X.

RHEUMATISM
WEAK KIDNEYS & THIN BLOOD

Not only is the blood the great
nourishing source of our systems, but
equally as important is its work of
removing the waste of oxodized it's
sues which have been consumed in
force and bodily heat. This waste is
filtered out through the kidneys.
When, however, the kidneys become
weak and unable to perform their
regular duties, the waste is allowed
to remain in the circulation, soon
forming uric acid which destroys the
greater portion of nourishing elements
of the blood and leave it weak and
acrid. This imperfect blood deposits
into the different muscles and joints
the uratic impuritY with which it is
contaminated. Then the pains and
aches Of Rheumatism commence. The
gritty formation which uric acid
causes collects in the joints and pro-
duces the aches and stiffness which
always accompany the disease. Like
wise the muscles are coated and lose
their elasticity, while the continual
irritation to the nerves produces SWELL
ing and Inflammation of the flesh.
