infinite pains over the reading OF a

On the Saturday matinee of the opera,
a new ballet "L'Ecole en- Crinoline, by
Mrs Hemmick, will be presented by
Pavlowa. Great interest centers in this
enort Of Mrs. Hemmick, for she has
personally arranged not only the score
and ballet as q whole, but has been the
presiding genius for the construction
and presentation Of the scenes with
Pavlowa.
The best feature Of the pres
emit engagement OF the opera here Is
that 1t promises not to be merely
single season, but to become an tnstitu-
ton. Its patrons both in this city and
outside are working toward a perma-
nent arrangement by which Washing
ton will be given opera season every
year
Let US hope that the Washington
grand opera committee does not die on
Saturday night.
Not only for civic and social reasons
il opera desired in Washington. but 1t
is recognized that opera is q tremendous
artistic stimulus to the city, and an In
SEPARATION to all that are engaged in any
OF the arts. ArtisIically the offerings OF
end Of stir in New York, Philadelphia,
Boston, and the other cities in which
the company has been seen.
An item. but far from an unimport-
ant one to lovers of the beautiful, Is
the fact that the Boston company will
bring to Washington the Urban settings,
the best work of a master artist who
has almost revolutionize9 scene paint
ing. His Bcene-painting for The Love
OF the Three Kings" has been pro-
nounced q remarkable conception, His
scenery for the ballet numbers and the
other operas is little less notable.
-HB forthcoming production Of
THE Little Minister recalls
the fact that this Barrie play re-
oeiVed it's hTst production in
this city, bringing fame not only to
the author. but to Miss Adams as we'll.
For some time Miss Adams hAa been

REMEDIES FOR ANEMIA.

Anemia means literally lack OF blood.

or anemia are known to be secondary

like will usually be accompanied by

One of the most elective remedies
for anomia is frequent and thorough

Standard Meals
BY MARTHA MISSIONER

In housekeeping as In everything
else there Is no absolute right and
wromg-evcrythinG is comparative.
Take, for instance. the question OF
canned goods. one housckceper says
cnphatically: 81 never think of giving
my people canned stuff and n timid
bride answers: well. ] seem to make
naccr things OF canned goods"
They are both right In sense. The
first woman always has several guests
IN her home one or two OF them pay
hoard and she has several servants. II
would lac folly in her case to use much
canned goods, for she buys dried things
i'm bulk and there is always some one
at home to attend to soaking them al
night. or making up leftovers. She can
cook IN large amounts.
The bride who lives in an apartment
cooks for two She would save but lit
tic money and waste the time she now
uses to trim her hats and do other
things about the house II she did not
resort to making up things in small
amounts which can hest be done With
canned things. so you see there are
TWO sides to this question.
