Company, he was met with many
proph ecies of failure.
The premier was Beliinfs 81 Puri-

Alexander Bonci, Nine. Pinkert, So
prRno. and Mario Ancona; baritone,
who had been a Metropolitan princi-
pal in former years. Carmen" sung
later, scored a distinctive artistic tri-
umph, and before the end OF the sea-
son IL had been presented twenty
times with Bressler-Gianoli in the
title role. Then followed Aida" and
other grand operas new and old to
American audiences.
Produced Splendid Repertoire.
The Manhattan produced a wonder
full repertoire, including such operas
as "Rigoletto," "Travlata." Lucia"
"Boheme," "Cavalleria Rusticana,"
"Navariste," in all of which Emma
Calve sang; Don Giovanni" 81 Pag-
liacci," That's" Louise" "Pelleas
and Melisande," siberia" The
Tales of Hoffman" Andrea Chenier"
and "Crispinoe La Comare." A num-
Der of these had never before been
heard in America. Other productions
were Massenets The Juggler or
Notre Dame" VerdiS "Otello" and
'Dinorah" and Blech's Princess
d'Auberge," the last named of which
failed of success. Still others were
Straus' "Elektra," "Griseledis,"
"Sapho' and "Herodiade."
Among the opera singers he en-
gagged who were stars of the first
vocal magnitude at the time or be-
came later partly as result of Mr..
Hammerstein's leadership were Edo
uard de Reszke, Mary Garden,
Louise Tetrazzini, Eleanor de Cis-
neros, Maurice Renaud, Mario Sam
marco, Nellie Melba, Lima Cavalieri,
Jeanne GerviIle-Reach, Charles Dali
mores, John Mccormack, NJ. Zena-
tello, and others.
In 1910 Mr.. Hammerstein sold out
his Philadelphia opera house and
scenery and costumes of the Manhat-
tan, together with all contracts with
the singers, for a sum said to have
been 100000 to the Metropolitan
Opera Company, and as a result OF the
agreement entered into at that time,
and which later was the subject OF
litigation, the famous impresarlo was
enjoined from producing opera in New
York until April 26.. 1920.

IS INFLUENZA TO RUN ASAN
EPIDEMIC AGAIN THIS WINTER

can readily be understood the utter
futility of giving a vaccine if we dom.
know what vaccine to give. Don't
misunderstood this statement. am
speaking of influenza and not the com
.plication of influenza. There is a
rational scientific basis for giving vac
cines to prevent the serious compli-
cations of influenza, but this vaccine
must be carefully selected, after a
complete investigation of the causi-
tive agents producing these complica-
tons. They vary in different locali-
ties. Your physician will have these
facts and act on them accordingly.
In conclusion, if we are not to have
influenza you must observe the fol-
lowing:
|. Consider all colds as Influenza
colds"
2. Complete isolation of patients
with influenza colds"
5. Keep away from those colds.
4. Make the fellow who insists he

WORK HARD AND DON'T WORRY
II There May Be Said to Be a Recipe
for a Long and Happy Life,
Why, There It Is.

America is a%nxiously scanning the
casualty lists these days ~poignantly
sensitive to the dread possibilities of
war. Yet, if we paused to think, we
should find, as the Equitable Life AS
uranc society has deducted from Its
vast experience in mortality data, that
IVORY kills more men than wal and
disease put together" We read of those
killed in action, dead of wounds, ac-
cidents or disease at the front, and
our hearts are wrung for the loss Of
these brave boys, but day by day a
larger company falls out of u W
ranks here at home to answer the last
call, the Pittsburgh Dispatch observes.
Some are spoken of as victims
the truth were known, it would be
found it was worry that FASTENED their
end. Hard work never killed anyone.
It is worry that kills.
A young man, for instance, rises to
the head of a good business or to some
other responsible position. Perhaps
he begins to slacken, to ease up a lit
tie, and leaves the details to his sub
ordinates. Things do not move as
smoothly, and, when he wakes up, he
finds he has lost his grip of affairs and
begins to worry. His friends think
hard work killed him, but it was worry
that shortened his years. While he
was fighting his way upward his work
engrossed him, as 1t will any man
capable of a career. Work left him no
time for worry. Keep pegging away.
Worry is the grain of dust that up
sets the fine balance of the human
mechanism, brings loss of power, SLOW
ing down the engine and ultimately
racking it to pieces.
Bear in mind that "worry kills more
men than war and disease put togeth-
err" and so shape your life and hab-
ituate your mind that you cannot be q
victim.

UTILIZE COMBINES OF DOGS
English Women Making Articles for
the Red Cross Service From
Somewhat Odd Materials.

The picturesque spinning wheel is
coming into it's own again in Eng
land, but in certain instances an I'M
usual material is employed to work
upon. The tiny pet dogs, so very
numerous in dog-loving England, are
"doing their Bit" Watch the spinner
at the wheel and guess what her soft
and fluffy raw material is? Just
simply the combings of Fido and Fiji,
and a host of similar pets. The soft
ness of these combings suggests be-
f~ore-the-war Shetland, and the wool
produced provides for jerseys, muf-
fiers, bed-socks, and operation stock
ings, of which the Red Cross say they
can v have too many. OF course
these doggie combings receive special
treatment before they reach the spin
ming wheel. 1t seems that the use of
dogs hair for wool manufacture is not
new, as a lady in England tells of her
mother having a frieze suit years ago,
the material for which was contrib
uted by a favorite Chow. Gossip has
1t in London that only the fear Of
looking absurd prevented the wom-
ems branch of the ministry of national
service from instituting a scheme for
collecting dogs hair. Perhaps the lit.
tie dogs are trying to justify their tiny
lives, in the face of suggestions that
their food is more needed in England
now than their presence.
