VICTIM on WINTER WEATHER.

Hoary old winter adds TO his toll
every day. even though the Ides Of
March have come and gone. The
latest victim OF his relentless hold on
the thermometer is George Bradshaw
OF the bradshaw Clothing Company,
Ordinarily the roads are hard and dry
and the clothing business is booming
around the middle OF March. so about
six weeks ago George wagered Harvey
Beatty, OF Beatty's Sanitary Hestaur-
ant, that the latter would have his
automobile GU tfor a spin over the
automobile out for a spin over the
The weeks went by with no indica-
ton OF spring from the weather man
until the tenth OF March. As no oppor-
tunity presented itself for a ride. Har-
vey has kept his machine under cover.
The other day Harvey went TO Brad
shaw's and collected the amount OF
the wager-six pairs OF fancy silk
sox, the best In the store.

MISS SPENCER WILL SING DUFF,


Mlsa Elizabeth Spencer. the popular
soprano. enjoys an unique position
among American concert singers. She
is a dramatic soprano With a lovely.
rich aud perfectly placed voice, but
she ls more than that. A very unus-
uaI range enables her TO sing also
mezzo soprano and contralto songs
not with some freak tones. but with
the same exqulsitely placed voice and
even production that is characteristic
Of her voice In the higher register.
She has sound muslcianship and inter-
pietative ability OF a higher order, and
IN an artist who has hosts OF friends
and admirers among music lovers.
The recital at which Miss Spencer
will appear next Wednesday evening
at the Methodist church under the
auspices OF Howland's Variety Store.
viii be unique Ia several particulars,
TOR she will perform the hitherto un.
known feat OF singing a duet with her
self. This is possible only because
OF Thomas A. Edison's new musical
art-music recreation. Mr.. Edison
has perfected a musical instrument
which actually re-creates music,
vocal or instrumental, with such hdil-
lty 10 nature that the recreation can
not be distinguished from the original.
Miss Spencer will illustrate this by
singing In direct comparison with her
own re-created voice so that two Miss
Spencers viii be heard.
