The loose floors of HopkinsviIIe
closed last Thursday for the season
after the most successful season in
the history of this market. The total
sales for the season were well over
sixteen million pounds and all this
despite the fact that more of the crop
had been sold to contractors than
ever before. Ii any Of the farmers
have their tobacco still on hand they

At the Paris Exposition in the sum

French music was given in the room

noon, I was presented to Mile. Teresita
Tagliapietra, who was to give a piano
forte recital under the auspices of
committee headed by NJ. Saint-Saens.
The young woman, almost as beautiful
as her mother had been at her age,
was, / believe, the eldest of the three
children Of Carreiio, whose father was
Signor Tagliapietra. Jury duty pre-
vented me from hearing her play. II

doubt the dash, impetuosity and en-
ergy Of her manner were a tempera-
mental inheritance, for they were
present from the beginning; but they
may have been directed, il not curbed,
by the instruction which she received
from Rubinstein in her girlhood. They
were an element In HIS playing, also,
though his was the richer and deeper
sorority Of tone.
New-York tribune., 1917-06-24

II Is an old, old tale that elderly
persons who have lived out the career
of a singer or player from its begin
ming TO its decay are always inclined
to look pityingly upon the younger
generation, who, having been fed upon
tales of the artists greatness, must
perforce find evidences of that great
ness in such performances as it is
privileged to hear. Nine. Carreho pre-
served some of the Characteristic ele-
ments of her art down to last year.
But not in their best estate. 1t was
easy to recognize relics Of the almost
dcmoniac energy which was one of her
chief characteristics; but the latter
day glitter was but reflection of the
rich brilliancy which marked her
playing in her prime. 1t appeared to
me that the best in her art was ex-
hibited longest In her playing of Mac
Dowel's concerto, for which she set
better model than did the composer
himself. In the classics her per-
formances at the end disclosed more
superficial skill than depth Of feeling;
but it was not difficult when looking
at her superb pose at the pianoforte,
her fine features, the crown of hair
scarcely less luxurious and splendid
in its grayness than when it was black
&c the wing OF night, to recall the
youthful figure which had enriched my
sight in

As has been said, Wieniawski. whom

they were heard in recitals. They

Mr.. Campanini is directing an ener-
getic and well planned campaign for
tho projected season OF opera by the
Chicago company in New York next
January. He is promising larger
percentage Of French performances
than has ever been given by the Net
ropolitan Company and referring to
the Chicago record Of last season, when
at eighty-two performances he pro-
duccd twelve French operas, while
Signor Gatti produced only five at 14s
representations. In the Chicago rep
ertory there were fourteen operas
which were absent from the New York
list, and Of these, nine were French,
viz: "H6rodiade,' "Le Prophetic
"Faust," "Manon," "Les Contes d'Hof-
raann," Romeo ct Julictte," "Le Jon
gleur de Notre Dame" Louise" and
"Griselidis." Campanini also brought
out two German operas which were
missed by the New York public last
season, "Tannhauser" and "K0nigshn'
der" In both of which, rs also II
Faust" Miss Farrar took part. 1t Is
likely TO prove p lucky move as well
as a shrewd one to play French operas
and French singers against company
that promises to rely largely on Ger
man operas and German singers at
cri.ical neriod such az that In which
the next season will play. There arc
German singers under contract with
tho Metropolitan Company whose pres
ence will not be gratefully received by
patriotic Americans now that the coun-
try is no longer neutral in the strug-
ole for civilization against savagery.

Another story illustrative Of Rubin
STEMS character comes to mind. The
leading pianist and organist In Cincin-
natl at the time was Henri G. Andres

ner, but warm hearted of disposition.
At the first Of Rubinstein's recitals
Andres called upon him in the inter
mission and conversation took place
in substance as follows:
"Herr Rubinstein, | should like to
make your acquaintance. My name is
Andres, and I'm musician"
Nothing easier; here l am a
moment of silence) "You say you
want to make my acquaintance and
that you are musician. Have you
nothing more to say?"

"See here, have you anything to do
after the concert?"
Nothing if can be Of service to
YOU
"Will you come over to the hotel as

with pleasure"
ThenceforwarG as long as Rubinstein
remained in Cincinnati and on his next
visit the two men were inseparable.
They lunched, dined and supped to-
gether. and Rubinstein heard Address
best pupils, chatted with them and
played for them. 1t was not that the
great pianist shared the local musi-
clans poor opinion Of Schumann's
music. but the latter's blunt frankness
which formed the bond Of sympathy
between them. Rubinstein had as
great a contempt for conventional com
pliments as Brahms.

Keeps Her Children
In Perfect Health
DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin
the Family Laxative For
Many Years.

Mrs. Aug. Doellefeld, of Carlyle, ILL.,.
recently wrote to DR.. Caldwell, at Mon
ticello, ILL.,, that she has used DR.. Cald-
wells Syrup Pepsin in her home for
a number of years, and would not be
without it, as with it she has been able
70 keep her four children in perfect
health. DIR. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is
d combination of simple laxative herbs
with pepsin that acts on the bowels in
an easy, natural way, and regulates
the action of this most important
function. Nearly all the sickness to
which children are subject is traceable
to bowel inaction, and mild, depend
able laxative, such as DR.. Caldwells s
Syrup Pepsin, should have q place in
every family medicine chest. It is
pleasant to the taste and children like
it, and take it readily, while it is
equally effective for adults.
DR.. Caldwells Syrup Pepsin is sold
In drug stores everywhere for fifty
cents a bottle. To avoid limitations
and ineffective substitutes be sure you
get DR.. Caldwells Syrup Pepsin. See

proof paper. All packages of BAN
dages, Bponges, etc., must be clearly
marked. The necessary sterilizing is
done In the base hospitals, but 1t Is
made as simple matter as possible
by every available help beforehand.
The turning in of raw edges and the
removal of coarse threads or ravelings
in surgical dressings Is most import
ant as they are very dangerous II left
to irritate an open wound.
The endless miles upon miles of
bandages used in war times is past
estimating. These our women are roll
ing by the hundreds. They are tied
tightly into packages of six before
packing. There are muslin bandages
for many and varied uses; gauze ban
dages to place over congresses; fan
mel bandages and crinoline bandages,
the latter used when applying plaster
casts. For the unbleached muslin and
flannel ones small hand machines fas-
tened to the tables are used in order
that the roll be tight and firm when
finished. All packages of dressings
must be wrapped in new muslin or
freshly laundered undamaged old
muslin or linen and pinned securely
with only the head of the pin visible.

the generosity of various open-handed
men and women. In one day $45.00

In plain figures what the raw mate

goods are used as strings to tie to-
gether the rolls of bandages and are
also knitted with coarse needles into
very serviceable floor rags. The ravel-
ings, bits of gauze, etc., are saved and
used, with cotton, to form the filing
for fracture pillows. 1t is economics
brought to a fine point.

Pythias. got under way last night when
nearly 200 persons gathered in Whites
Hall to enjoy varied program of mu-
sic, speechmaking, recitations and, last
of all, an old-time minstrel show.
The performance of .Ye Old Fashion
ed Minstrel Troupe was the feature of
the evening. The troupe consists of
Albert Gregor. Paul Hornipg, Walter
Snyder, G. r. Bausman, Earl Garman,
John Fox, C. L. Kochenaur M. ii.
Mulligan and A. S. Hartman. Several
vocal selections were given by a quar-
tet composed of Robert Fohl, George
Deal, c. c. Berkheimer and Paul Smith.
Wayne KIeiss accompanied on the pi-
ano. George Mulligan, in the role Of
magician, pulled off number of mys-
tifying tricks, which were heartily
applauded
The teachings and principles of the
knights of Pythias were eXpounded
by Duncan S. Whyle. The lodge hopes
to make this the banner year for new
members. With Miss Florence Horning

Then there Is the individual equip
ment which some branches of the Red
Cross provide. 1t contains for each
patient:
Six sheets; sets pajamas; / con-
valescent robe; pair bed socks; 4
face towels; pair slippers; 4 pillow
cases: bed sheets; pairs socks; Q
bath towels; Q wash cloths; 2 hot

Every hospital unit for the Army Is
entitled to 500 beds each, for the Navy
$50 beds and the number of crates of
materials allowed by the Red Cross Is
definitely specified.
Need More Money, Too
What we need here is not only
workers but money. We need the
maids, wives, mothers and grand
mothers to volunteer If they can spare
only one hour out of the week. When

in the contribution of money but in
the preparation of the necessary Bup-
plies, especially those which can be
made by unsltlled volunteer workers
This great organization Is anxious
to have available O. sufficient quantity
of nonperishable goods to meet the
first overwhelming demands should
our country be involved in war. After
war Is declared, even II the money
should be obtainable, the markets,
factories and other sources of supply
are so much disturbed that great de-
lays would be unavoidable. It has al
ways happened that when the needs
of war arise the means of meeting
them are not available and q vast
amount of suffering is caused which
could be prevented by such provision
as Is now proposed.
Women Quick to Respond
Our women have come to realize this
and to feel the tug at the heartstrings
and the sense of personal responsibility
brings forth. We call it patriotism and
it is an insistent force craving ex-
preston of action.
Frequently as many as 90 or 100
women a day have been giving of their
time during the past few weeks in
work for the Harrisburg Chapter OF
the Pennsylvania Division of the
American Red Cross; many as full
fledged active members (dues $1,000,
but others simply anxious to offer their
willing hands and loyal hearts to do
their bit for Old Glory. The result
is 13 crates ready to ship upon notifica-
ton to whatever base hospital is in
dicated by the Headquarters in Wash
ington.
According to all things military
absolute eXactness is required in fol-
lowing directions regarding quantities

mittee comprising Miss Mccormick

of all the work and responsibility for
