FAMOUS MUSICIANS
 GUESTS OF A. M. ABEL
Dr.. Bruch, Agen Composer and Vio- linist, Also Played Two Numbers With His Host

A remarkable occurrence was the playing of Max Bruch's Scottish fan tasy by Fritz Kreisler, with the aged composer himself at the piano, at the home of Mir and Mrs. Arthur M. Abell on the afternoon of April IS, says the Continental Times of Berlin Germany. On this occasion the famous composer and the celebrated violinist met and heard each other for the first time, al- though Kreisler has been playing Bruchs compositions for violin on his tours both in Europe and America for years. In difference to the wishes of Dr. Bruch only a very few guests were invited to meet the venerable master. Those present were Mrs Leishman wife of the American ambassador; her daughter the Countess de Gontaut- Biron: Prof. and Mime. Christian Sin ding, Mir. and Mrs Kreisler and Mrs. George Buckman.
 Dr. Bruch is not only a great com poser but, in spite of his "A years, is still a magnificent pianist This fact, however, is little known to the musi- cal world, since Bruch has not played in public for years. and leads a very secluded life. seldom going out, even to the homes of his most intimate friends The astonishing fire and vigor with which Bruch played inspired Kreisler. and the two gave a perform ance of the Scottish fantasy that will long live in the memories of those who were privileged to hear it. Dr. Bruch also played the adagio from his G minor concerto with Mr. Abell and later in the afternoon Kreisler and MT. Abell played together the largo of the Bach double concerto for two violins.
 Bruch was visibly impressed by Kreisler's great art and expressed his delight at meeting the distinguished interpreter of his compositions The latest composition, recently completed, of Bruch, who is the nestOr of German composers, Is a work for mixed chorus, orchestra and baritone solo, entitled Die Macht des Gesanges. It is to be performed by the principal oratorio societies of Germany next season.

SHOP TALK SERIES
 CLOSED AT M'CRUM- HOWELL.
Rev. c. H. Ricketts Receives Crafty ing Show of Appreciation-Seeking the Permanent, His Topic.

The shop talk Wednesday noon at the McCrum- Howell company plant closed for the season the series which has been conducted there under the auspices of the Y. NJ. C. A.. and the large number of men present gave pleasing recognition to the speaker, Rev. C. II. Ricketts of the Greeneville Congregational church by giving him enthusiastic applause at the close of his talk and crowding around to shake his hand.
 Two soprano solos, Ninety and Nine, and A May Morning, were sweetly sung by Mrs. George T. Lord, with Miss Elizabeth Grove as the accom- panist.
 Seeking the Permanent was the sub ject for the closing talk by Rev. Mir. Ricketts, He said in part:
 There are more than a dozen sub iects I would like to crowd into this concluding speech, but l must foregO and call your attention briefly to the importance of seeking the permanent.
 Industrial Insecurity.
 There are several reasons, men, why in this last talk l should urge you to set your house in order, in other words, seek the permanent security of the heavenly life, and first because of industrial insecurity.
 Men. in the midst of your industrial inseclrity why not grip Him who is the same yesterday, today and for eyer?'
 Political Situation Muddled.
 I cannot remember a time when the political situation was so muddled and unsatisfactory as at present. l have never seen time of greater uncer- tainty and perplexity among all classes of our citizens than at present. There seem to be no great political issues at stake between the two great parties. The differences between these parties are not worth contending for. In stead of having high and digniiied discussion of great political purinciples we are humiliated by a low and un- manly squabble between the two lead ing candidates. And one of them is showing himself a past master in the art of slinging mud. It is a cringing bid for votes, an insult to a great and dignified nation: it is the worst feat ures of ward politics made national. The sober, common sense of the coun- try is getting so disgusted that 1t would not be. strange if election day next November. did not become yer itable day of judgment.

DON'T I CROW BALD
 YOUNG MAN !!
Take Care of Your Hair While You have Hair to Take Care Of.

It's safe ten to one bet that the young man who uses PARlSeAN Sage as an occasional hair dressing will never grow bald.
 There's a reason, of course, and it's a very good and sufficient one.
 Dandruff germs cause falling hair and falling hair means thinner hair and in due time badness.
 PARISIAN Sage prevents badness, by destroying the cause of badness the little persistent vociferous dan druff germ.
 If you have dandruff or itching scalp it means that dandruff germs are sap ping the vitality from the roots of your hair Get rid of all hair troubles by using PARISIAN Sage.
 It Is not a dye, mind you, neither does it contain poisonous sugar of lead or even sulphur. It is a scientific preparation that abolishes dandruff, stops falling hair and scalp itch, and makes hair grow lustrOus and lux uriant.
 Many young women as well as men are growing bald and for the same reason.
 Use delightful refreshing PARIS IAN Sage; it nourishes the hair roots, if the roots are not dead, and brings to every user head of glorious hair radiant and fascinating. Large bot tie for 50 cents at drug stores and toilet counters. See that you get PARISlAN Sage
