 It is contemplated to hold a centennial exhibit, however, in the old circular building in Battery Park from october l to october 10. Many of Jenny Lind's per- sonal belongings and interesting relics associated with her tour here will be shown. The old concert grand piano will have it's place of honor.
 On the afternoon of october 6, the park commissioners of New York city will present to the aquarium a marble bust of Jenny Lind and a portrait of the famous singer, both made for her when she was in this country
 Other American cities where Jenny Lind sang are arranging 10 celebrate the day.
 Jenny Lind was born in Stockholm of humble parents. She sang from child hood and famous teachers became inter ested in her. At 12 her voice entirely failed. Four years later it came back and her remarkable career began again. Her first operatic role was Alice, in Meyerbeer's Robert le Dable.' iiaN- ing been acclaimed in ner own country and in Norway. she carried her con- quests to the continent and to England. She was probably the most talked of person in public life in all Europe when Barpum, without having seen or heard her, persuaded her to make tour Of the United States. No sooner was the con tract signed than the new impressario, according to his autobiographs. began to prepare the public mind for the re- cepdon of the great sonGstress The steamer Atlantic that brought her to this country was salUed at Sandy Hook and again as shtrS!lp wed up the Narrows. Forty thousand people assem- bled at the landing and on the surround

Everywhere aud fences fought to gain entrance to the concert halls Everywhere they stormed her with applause-and everywhere ad- nirers and charity workers besieged her Extra concerts had to be given to satis- fy the throngs-and Jenny Lind herset added more extra concerts for charlty.
 People prominent in public life paiu her great honors. Mayors and governors presented their compliments in person
 Jenny Lind broke her contract with Barnum with fifty-five concerts yet to sing-but the great snowman and the Nightingale parted friends. While visit ing in Boston, she was married to otto Goldschnidt, composer and pianist. ana shortly thereafter returned to Europe. In 1858 she took up her residence in Eng land. where she died in 1887.
 There is no record of Jenny Linds voice But the journals of her time, the few living people who heard her and those to whom the memory has been handed down. all tell the same story Tt was wonderful.

Toothsome Eskimo Banouet

Christian Leden, in the World Outlook.
 The feast had already begun when I arrived at Napsangoak's tent. The men were sitting in the open, behind some seal skins which were hung in front of the opening of the tent in order to keep the cold wind out They were all dressed alike in blue fox and Polar bear furs, and each had a "pillAut," or butcher knife, in his hand They cut into the carcass with these knives dripping with blood and tore the raw meat with their strong beautiful teeth In the midst of this savage-looking entertainment, however, there was apparent the most genuine courtesy. The men often helped each othe1 to what they considered the best part~of the seal, and the host, se- lecting huge piece of meat, handed 1t tc me with smile of gourmand. say ing, 'I hope you will find it to your taste"
 I took the meat and thanked him. but sat down at little distance from the others. for hoped in an unobserved mo- ment to give the nauseous mess to the dogs. As usual. on such occasions they were standing around Gs closely as they dared come, greedily watching their op- portunity to snatch or catch bit of the meat Alas, my host anxious, 1 suppose. to see that I was happy and satisfied, kept his eyes on me. And when he saw that I was in no hurry to eat the meat. remarked kindly: Yes, it smells so good it is truly sin to eat 1t, but let it sink down into your stomach, anyhow. l will afterwards give you another piece to smell on!"

Her abode is down in the bowels of the earth. where it is nice and warm. and to her the souls of all good people go after death

 Even white people may sometimes be mistaken" he said, "and any sensi- ble Eskimo would think that he got quite enough of cold weather in this life and that the good Spirit could not possibly give him any better reward for good conduct than warmer ex- istence in the next"

TRUTONA IS WITHOUT AN EQUAL. !
Says indianapolis PHYSICIAN

Unselfish Spirit Manifested

Praiseworthy.

In his own words, this is what
A. J. Mcdonald, we'll known Indian
oils physician who lives at No. 8 Ear
Poplar street, thinks about the Perfect
Tonic.
Mr. Mcdonald not only backs this as
sertion with his unquestionable knowl-
edge of medicines gained in fifty years
practice but he has actually taken Tru-
tona and personally knows just what the
Perfect Tonic will do.
II began the use Of Trutona because
Of my weakened nerves and generally
feeble condition which was due to over
work" DR.: Mcdonald said. Il had given
out completely. But I'm as strong as
ever and my nerves are equally as steady
since I've taken Trutona.
Il have no interest in the Trutona
Medicine Company and I simply make
this statement because I do not know Of
a tonic for aged and weakened people
that can equal Trutona. All of my life
has practically been devoted to the re-
lief of suffering humanity and I cheer
fully continue this policy in recommends
ing Trutona to aged, weakened and run

A REMARKABLE
CASE REVEALED
BY STATEMENT
Member of Prominent In
diana Family Tells Con
vincing Story Of
Trutona.

A striking feature of the scores of
testimonials given daily in behalf of Tru-
iona, the perfect tonic, is the large num-
Der that come from well-known and high
ly respected people, many of whom have
heretofore been disinclined to publicly
indorse any preparation.
Here is a statement made a few days
ago by a member of a widely known
Indiana family, which, in itself is a
convincing tribute to the merit Of Tru-
tona. Mrs. J. W. Buskirk, 80 years old,
of 2702 Ethel street, indianapolis, is the
grateful patient who makes this state
ment.
Mrs. Buskirk is the widow of J. w.
Buskirk, deceased, who was once a prom
inent circuit court judge Of Blooming
ton, Ind, and a widely-k known lawyer
Of the Hoosier state The following is
Mrs. Buskirk's story of the relief she
gained through use of Trutona:
"Trutona is one medicine that is ALL
medicine and I'll be delighted to tell any
one how much more Trutona helped me
than I'll be able to say in this state
ment, If they care TO come to see me.
Il suffered with bronchitis and throat
trouble all winter. 1 couldn't speak above
a whisper and l was SO nervous My
appetite was poor and constipation
bothered me. l was very short of breath.
too, most of the time l was In such D
condition | could hardly walk across the
floor
Now, mind you. ! could hardly get
my breath fourteen days ago, when /
began taking Trutona, but today my
voice rings clear as a bell and seems as
good as it ever was. Trutona has reg
ulated my bowels and I'm surely gain
ing strength. Why I walked four blocks
today, the farthest I've walked In two
months. The shortness Of breath has
left me and l guess l look ike a differ
ent woman.
I'm the talk OF our neighborhood since
| used Trutona. Every one knows how
feeble / was and every one now knows
the name Of the medicine that gave me
such relief. Trutona did all Of this for
me after I had fntilely tried most every
thing and you can tust bet that I'm a
real Trutoua booster. Advertisement.
