ALICE NIELSEN TO
SING IN ARDMORE;
RED CROSS BENEFIT

Alice Nielsen, prima donna So
prano of the Metropolitan and Bos-
ton opera companies, who will ap-
pear in Convention Hall ior the ben
eft OF the Ardmore Red Cross
Chapter, Wednesday night, April
10, as the final attraction in the
Ardmore entertainment course, has
made an unusually interesting mu-
steal career. Miss Nielsen is as
charming personally as she is gifted,
muSically and her concert is being
looked forward to as one of tn
most brilliant events, musically, that
Ardmore has had the pleasure OF
ENJOYING. Miss Nielsen has interest
ingly described her first experience
as a prima donna.
81 suppose | was about the most
conceited little girl ever lived" said
Miss Nielsen in an interview. 81 do,
not remember the time when ! did
not sing, or when everybody about
me was not saying how beautifully
| sang. | got it into my mind that
really was the greatest singer liy-
ing. and was perfectly sure of it
when at the age OF eight | was given
salary of $40 a week for singing
boys parts in a juvenile opera com
pany that produced Chimes of Nor
mandy, 'Mikado' etc, in many parts
Of the West.
81 must have been a problem for
! the stage managers, for ! would not

once when was playing Nanki Poo
in the Mikado, a sort OF vine hedge
had been built out upon the stage
seven or eight feet beyond the wings
and when | came out for my sole
part, to singe the Wandering Min
strel song, | was supposed to enter.
from behind this hedge. | did not
propose to do any such thing. told
the stage manager that as this was
my only chance to hold the stage
alone the audience had a right to
see me Just as soon as possible, and
actually made him remove that
obstruction before | would consent
to sing SO the audience saw me
from the earliest possible moment
as | emerged from the wings.
81 was fifteen years old before this
p conceit was taken out of me. 1t
lasted all the years that | was sing

OLD PRESCRIPTION
FOR WEAK KIDNEYS

Have you ever stopped to reason why
1T is that so many products that are ex-
'tensively advertised, all at once drop out
of sight and are soon forgotten? The
reason is PLAINTIFF article did not fulfil
the promises of the manufacturer. This
applies more particularly to q medicine.
A medicinal preparation that has real
curative value almost sells itself, as like
an endless chain system the remedy is
recommended by those who have been
benefited, to those who are in need of it.
A prominent druggist says, take for
example Dr.. Kilmer's Swamp Root, q
preparation I have sold for many years
and never hesitate to recommend, for in
almost every case it shows excellent re-
suits, as many of my customers testify.
No other kidney remedy that l know Of
has 20 large q sale"
According to sworn statements and
verified testimony of Thousands who have
used the preparation, the success of DR.
kilmers' Swamp-Ro is due to the fact
that, so many people claim, it fulfls al
most every wish in overcoming kidney,
liver and bladder ailments, corrects ur-
mary troubles and neutralizes the uric
acid which causes rheumatism.
You may receive a sample bottle Of
Swamp Root by Parcel Post. Address
DIR. kilmer 4 Co., Binehamton, N. Y, and
enclose ten cents also mention this paper.

RIGHT SYSTEM OF HIGHWAYS
u Should Include Everything From
Expensive Concrete to Minor
Dirt Wagon Ways.

What we need and in time will have
is a system Of highways which will
ramify from the largest cities to the
doorway of the humblest citizen-vil-
lager or farmer. Such a system OF
highways will include trunk lines with
expensive concrete or brick surfaces
for the very heavy traffic, including
trucks and automobiles. Less used but
important roads may be Of waterbound
macndam or gravel. Perhaps in GER
tain regions where stone and gravel
are not at hand oiled roads may prove
most economical and practical. Minor
wagon ways must remain Of native
soil. bufit and maintained with the
ccnd drag. Meanwhile antagonism to
eoad dragging breeds in a lack of in
formation or narrowness which falls
to comprehend the facts.-D. Ward

N Conjunction With Regulation

IN Atkinson, N. H., the farm tractor
has been successfully used in making

horses.
20-horse-power tractor, as shown
In the picture, was used in conjunc-
'tion with the regulation road machine
for rounding off the surface OF the

found that the tractor not only easily

Besides, double the ground Is covered.
When the tractor Is used with the

with a pair of horses in one day and
