weight from to II pounds. When
taken from the tree the fruit is
prepared for the table by cutting
off small piece at each end and
making several marks lengthwise

YOU, We are taught 10 project the message
Of the music into yOW beng by indicating
with Our bodies what yOH feel. Assume that
the message Of a particular part Of the
danced opera is martial. The dancer body,
instead Of responding 10 the martial music
uncOnSCiOuSlv IN the manner ! have marked
out, responds to It C0HSCi0nay. The whole
thing is carefully studied out and simulated,
lust as the actor studies out the best way III
which 10 simulate emotions Of this or that
character. In this way, the spectator and
auditor not only feels the effect OF the music
in the regular way, but nc also sees the cttcC,
Of it through and in the body Of the dancing
Interpreter. And in this way the message OF
the composition is gradually inslnualcd with
double force into the mind, heart, and body
Of the individual in the audience Thus, too,
is the music message made Of wider appeal;
for thus is il made wibIe as well rs tceIablc.
have referred in this explanation only TO
one form Of music's great message; but this
explanation will point out the hight IN rcla-
lively coordinate channels.
The supreme demand for ciiccting the
realism OF the silent drama Of the dance is a
continued projected scmblancc Of Spon-
tancity. This seeming spontanci,y, as IN
the spoken drama, comes only with long and
arduOus and careful training, study. and
preparation. As in every form Of theatrical
art, it is all-ncccssary. Ocular opera, or the
silent drama Of the dance, is nothing more
than sublimatcd moving pictures, moving
pictures that speak through the veil Of 81
icncc. The danced drama is to European
royalty and the salon what moving pictures
are to the American masses, wh9 have de-
serted the drama and other more compli-
Gated species OF entertainment for the silent,
vet speaking, shadows on the screen.

Eighty cases in all, 80 regular
cases, and so recommended by Cover
nor West, are demanding the attention
of the parole board, which convened at
the penitentiary yesterday afternoon,
and which will be in session all day,

The 30 cases are such where the
minimum sentences have expired and
where the convicts are entitled to pa
role in the event their behavior has
been good The other so are cases
which Governor West for one reason
or another has recommended to the
board for investigation and action.
Including The four paroles recon-
mended yesterday, the board had, up
to noon, recommended in all seven
paroles, and :nur conditional pardOns.

THE CENTRAL
COMMITTEE
MEETS TO-DAY

The Republican county central COM
mittee will meet this afternoon at 2
o'clock at the court house. The law
requires that the committee shall be
called together by the chairman with
in five days after their election. Mr..
Jones, the present chairman, has
called the meeting for this afternoon
to comply with the law, but owing to
the slow returns, and the fact that the
official count is not yet over this
meeting will in all probability form
only temporary organization until
the full county committee can be called

not do any work. tried different
remedies, but they did me no good.
One day, ! got bottle Of Cardui. It
did me so much good, was surprised.
and took some more.

earth"
In the past fifty years, thousands Of
ladies have written, like Mrs. McGill,
TO tell Of the benefit received from
Cardui.
Such testimony, from earnest women,

tonic remedy, for diseases peculiar to
women. Are you a sufferer? Yes?
Cardui is the medicine you need.
