ALL FASCINATED BY
WOMAN'S HAIR.

Nearly every woman who has an ordinary
head of hair can by giving it just little at
tention have luxuriant hair, soft, fluffy and
radiantly beautiful.
It's good thing to know this because hair
preparations that put life and lustre into dull
looking hair are scarce, but its a fact known to
nearly every druggist in America that Partisan
Sage, delightfully."- clean and refreshing tonic
not only will make your hair look 100 per cent
better but will quickly stop it from falling, rid
it of dandruff and scalp itch.
It's well worth trial and A. A. Howes & Co.,
who dispose of great quantity of it will tell
you so, and will refund your money if it isn't
all you expect.

AN INTERVIEW WITH JOHN
MCCORMACK.
Secret Of Hold on His Audiences.

To obtain an interview from John
Mccormack, the celebrated Irish tenor,
who is to give concert at the Audi.
torium Wednesday, Feb. 2, is not the
easiest thing imaginable, as many
newspaper and magazine writer's can
testify. 1t is not that he is unap-
proachable. but that he simply dis
likes talking about himself, or his
work. Approach him on any other
subject. then 1t is different. In this
connection 1t may be noted that Mr..
Mccormack has a decided contempt
for anything suggestive of the profes.
sional press agent. 1t Is one of his
proudest boasts that he has never paid
fve cents to publicity promoter and
has never kept scrap book.
To say that Mr.. Mccormack dislikes
being interviewed does not, however.
mean that he has not been inter-
viewed; he has several times. A few
months ago a representative of the
New York Sun obtained sufficient
copy" to cover half page. The fol.
lowing extracts show very clearly that
MI. Mccormack is not only a great
singer, but a great student as we'll:
The memory of an interesting in
cident observed at the Mccormack re-
cital, week ago Sunday, was still
fresh in the mind of the interviewer
when he called ON the distinguished
Irish tenor at his apartment in Fifth
avenue hotel, one afternoon last week.
A party Of four young people had sat
In the row directly in front of me.
There were two girls and two men.
They sat in rapt attention through the
Beethoven number and the first group
of songs; then came the encores, one
Of which was Mother Machree." It
was sung In an inimitable and ire
sisttble manner. One of the young
men In the party cast furtive glance
at his companion and brushed away a
tear-McC ormack's singing of the song
had reached his heart Thus the ques.
ton of the interviewer was, How do
you weave the spell over your audi
ence?' 'The secret lies in the personal
equation" replied Mccormack. II
try to put myself in the place of the
audience. I feel l am one of them and
not a bit better than anyone of them.
1t is only by accident that I happen
to have voice and to be able to sing.
I never take it for granted that the
public as represented by my audience
knows less than I do. This talk
about educating the public as to what
kind Of music it should. or should not
like, annoys me. There is no use in
trying to force any particular kind Of
music down the Threats of the public.
Give them the kind of music they like.
I always learn something from my au.
diences. I endeavor to make my ap-
peal to the hearts Of my audience, not
to their heads; II I can touch their
hearts, am sure to reach the head
