Be Presented.

Music lovers and theatergoers will be
offered a composite lyric, dramatic and
scenic festival at the Belasco Theater

fetes of the French second empire,
which won for that brilliant Irish COM
poser the coveted decoration of Cheva-
licr of the Legion of Honor from Ma
poleon III, announcing it as their
crowning effort as producers of. grand
opera in English.
1t Is said great care has been given
TO the selection of this seasons cast of
soloists. For all of the leading roles
singers have been chosen with a view
10 having every member personally as
well as artistically fit his or her par
ticular part.
Among the principals, Miss Vera
Allen, who will be- heard as Airline was

The scenic investiture is the most pre-

favorite opera. There are skilfully in
troduced a cavalcade of horses, a fair

troupe of whirlwind acrobats give a
performance. A real gypsy caravan and
realistic camp scene, and dazzling
ballet in the dance of the hours" are
employed in this production.

HOW OLD PEOPLE
May Prolong Their Lives

May Prolong Their Lives
At an advanced age waste is more
rapid than repair. The organs act
more slowly and less efectuaI1y than
in youth. The circulation is poor, the
blood thin and watery, the appetite
poor and digestion weak.
We want to say to every aged per-
son in this vicinity that Vino1. Il de-
iicious cod liver and iron tonic with
out oil) will pro1ong life. It creates
an appetite, aids digestion and makes
good blood. In this natural manner
Vinol retards waste and replaces
weakness with strength. giving new
life to the worn system.
If people in this vicinity only rea
lied how Vino1 inVigorates old peoB
we would not be able to supply
demand.
Try a bottle of Vino1 with the un-
derstanding that your money win be
returned if It does not help you.

my vacation simultaneously with
some of them. Two large cities
are within a few hours ride by
train. I engage a room by the
week at the Y. w. G. A., or at
some place recommended by that
organization.
As I always have to be up
early at home, my first reIaxa-

/ have fruit and waters upon
which I can breakfast, If T.
wish; but | never get up before
lunch. For lunches and dinners
I go to as many different places
as I have meals, including always
one frst-class hotel. I want to
see different people and eat diff
ferent things. Any new dish in
a menu commands my patronage.
If it suits. I try to duplicate it
for the benefit of my family
when I get home. Many viands
commanding extrayagant prices
in the city are ordinary affairs
with us.
Afternoons and evenings ii
go to art galleries, museums, re-
citals, matinees, vaudvilles, lee
lures, moving-picture shows. II
watch the amusement columns
the dailies, noting especially
free days, and attend whatever
me pleasure, including
