Such a flood Of gutturals and con-

the visitors found the service bit
slow. for they were hungry The man

told of their coming and 1t Is no easy

last and everybody was in much better
humor after that.
The scene in the rotunda was notable
for clothes and whiskers. There were
tourist OUTFITS ranging from black SOM

paids and field glasses to frock coats
and high hats And the German SEN

HEALTH HINT FOR TODAY.
Rough Skin.

The rough red skin caused by
exposure to winds and SUI may
be removed by the persistent use
for a few weeks of a good skin
food. The face should be bathed
with warm water at night. and
the skin food should then be
gently rubbed In with a circular
movement Of the finger tips for
some fifteen minutes. In tho
morning remove any excess by
wiping over with n tuft Of cot
ton wool and then washing the
face with a good mild soap and
cold water. This treatment soon
makes the skin smooth and soft
and improves the color.

 ITO them that hath shall be given" is n sentence that applies to fat people that once a human being begins to fat ten up. to what they have already is added more than they want until finally a stage is reached wiIre reduction must be made or decided disadvantage results
 Then comes forward the ages-old query "Reduce-but how?" To the un- informed nothing suggests itself but the (to them) twin evils--less eating more activity. They contemplate a more or less lengthy siege of dieting and ex- ercising. So 1t may be said safely that every man or woman in the land now undergoing the fatteningup process has his or her mental eye fixed dub iously. on that not far distant day when he or she will have to don the ashes and sackcloth of reduction

one of those superb characters molded by diversity and war. She performed deeds of heroism which the times called for, and performed them with daring and initiative which her descendants are proud to reverence. History tells that she was afVirginian by birth. though the greater part of her life was passed in South Carolina She was the daughter of Robert Bland, a representative of one of the early families whose origin was purely English. Robert Bland was born in Prince William county Virginia in 11S2. His daughter. Jane, was one of sey- eral children whose birthplace was Fair fax county Virginia. The family re- moved to South Carolina in ITS. and set tied in what is called the "old Ninety sixth district" It was during the Rev olutionary times, however. that Jane
 Bland especially distinguished herself.
 Robert Bland her father, was an ardent whig. who gave literally of his wealth in defence of his country. He was thus the mark of the tories, who treated him cruelty and ruthlessly destroyed his prop erty. His son was killed in a skirmsh near his home, and it was when a spy felated to him the news that the boys body lay at the Turner house nearby that the heroism of Jane Bland asserted itself
 She offered to accompany her father to the scene and, mounting her horse, made a perilous journey by her fathers side to recover the body of the brother whom she loved devotedy. This was one of the memorable deeds of Brave Jane Bland" Another was her refusal to cook

sonata" or sound piece" which is the type of the greatest part of modern in strumental music.
 Chamber music offers such signal op- portunities for the display of the finest qualities of great players, that it has be- come common practice to perform 1t In large concert rooms. The chamber music of Mozart, of Mendessohn. of Schubert. of Schumann and Saint-Saens is music of a high intellectual capacity and scul- ture; these masters are upholders of high and pure standard of musical taste.
 Schumanns piano quintet in k fiat is only one of the many. examples of this great composers contributions to cham Der music This work has been described as the greatest piece of chamber music from any composer since Beethoven. The historian tells us, speaking of Schumanns music. He is not only the best repre- sentative. but the virtual founder of a distinct style in music--his sense of beauty often exquisite. his feeling pure, manly and chvalrous. So long as melody possesses the power to soothe. to com fort. to sympathize, so long shall we turn in gratitude to one who could transmute the sorrow of his own heart into sn elixir for the cure of others
 Spohr made some splendid contributions to chamber music, notably his double quartets. His compositions for the violin, on which he was distinguished perform CT, display his deep mind.
 Brahms. who had rare creative powers, takes a foremost place among the com posers of chamber music. His quintet In minor. the G minor sextet, and his quartets are very well known Brahms sometimes was called a great dressmaker "a musical Worth--who knew well how to cut and shape musical garments and trim them with elegant variations The historian of Brahms says. his faculty for originating ideas was weak, that when Brahms writes musicallv he is usually not profound and when he writes pro- foundly he is sometimes not musical"
 Dvorak is connected with the revival of music in Bohemia. and has enriched the library Of chamber music with may valuable compositions. He has used na- tional idioms--the most familiar to us ''The Negro Quartet drawn from his visit to America in 1S92-ls95.

MISS LUETTA GREGG AND
 MRS, INGALLS, ENTERTAIN

A lovely spring time party was the bridge tea yesterday afternoon to which the unmarried set and the young ma irons were bidden. Mrs. 1ngersoll Ingalls, and Miss Luetta Gregg were joint hos tesses. entertaining at the residence of their parents, MT. and Mrs. Matthew J. Gregg The new home of the Gregss Is one of the handsomest on sycamore street. It is spacious and lends itself beautifully to hospitable purposes. The great living room yesterday, like the other handsome apartments, was beautl- fled with flowers gathered from spring gardens. Quantities of pink tulips made pretty background for the receiving party-Mrs Gregg and her two daughters, the hostesses of the day. Mrs. Gregg looked very handsome in black lace gown made over lavender satin; MISS Gregg's costume was white chiffon or a graceful design trimmed In deep fringe, and she was very lovely in 1t. Mrs h. gals white lace robe over blue messa- line was one of those dainty combinations made lovelier by reason of the pink roses which she carried in an arm cluster.
 A number of the hostess Friends as- sisted them in welcoming their guests, though there was no formal receiving marty. The rooms made a graceful setting for the dainty gowns and pretty women In the hall encAantress cdriid,iohs -Sh'- nhasized the pink color motive. and in inc dining room pink swet peas were profusely used to decorate tables and huffets. On the polished bonbon table were cluny lace pieces. In the center stood a miniature garden of sweet peas,
 whose tint Is lovelier than the pink of any other flower. Clusters of pink tulle md f,uffy shades for rose celored candles. pink bonbons and ices, gave a charm ing glow, reflected in the flowers used with fine intention to effect, on the buff fets.
 The bridge games began at 2 o'clock and were concluded at 4:30 when the tea guests began arriving. The hostesses fn- vited 250 of their friends. the larger num- Der calling during the tea hour and en- toying a dainty luncheon with the bridge players. At the conclusion of the games, three prizes were awarded-a luncheon cloth of, exquisite. embroidery for the young married women, pair of silver slipper buckles for the girls and silver picture frame for the consolation trophy, which was drawn from a large basket of pink sweet peas. 4J

well as many others of modern Russian composers. have written excellent music of this style; notably, Arensky, whose Trio in D Minor we heard here 70 re- gently
 Tschaikowsky. however, is one of the most distinguished of the modern Rus sian school whose music shows the strange and violent contrasts of mood e. = "te''istic of his race.
 Richard Strauss, one of the most dis ta.s .ls..ed of living musicians, and al- though his recent works are written in a very advanced style, they are all classi- cal in form and show growth rather than wanton setting aside of established forms HIS quartets show certain amount of nelodic interest but some movements are so overpowerng in strength, rendering the works unconvincing.
 Anton Bruckner, who has written some chamber music of romantic formality like Cherubim. his quintet for strings in F major, has great charm and is considered an example of what the fn- tei'ect can do in music.
 Eduard Schutt, whose music we heard recently by the Bernstein Trio, who gave us the Walker Marchen, which is de- lightful fairy story told in waltz rhythnf.
 Then there are men like Kirchner. Joachim Raff. Michael Balfe (The bo- hemian GirD, Sir. Herbert Parry. Herman Goetz, oscar Schmitt. and so on-all mu- sicians who have contributed to this enor- nous and comprehensive collection of chamber music Much modern chamber music. especially of continental origin, is burdened with elaborations and flights of fancy which to say nothing harsher, render it most unintellgible unless per formed by artists of the highest executive skill while in the hands of the average amateur the result is often chaotic
 However, real chamber music repre- sents pure thought, high ideals. imagina- ton and intellect Representative cham Der music is written fer strings alone; tiios. duartets. quintets. sometimes d piano. or one or more of the wind in- struments, the French horn, oboe, or clarinet
