then followed the pretty sky-blue
eggs. For weeks the boys in manual
training room in the high school
building constructed houses to be
placed about town but these robins
selected the unique place at the annex
to the chagrin of the birdhouse max
ers. The nest is above the en-
trance used by the boys and when
the outburst is too noisy the
home is deserted until quiet reigns.
Mrs. F. H. Horstman, one of the tea
cheers in the annex, says the pupils are
very considerate of the nest and are
watching for future Developments
with carking care. If things do not go
awry there will soon be several small
heads peeping over the clay grass
nest.

POOR MAN!

A woman uses all her charms,
Until a man she lands;
For, when she falls into his arms,
He falls into her hands.
Luke McLuke
Of fallen creatures surely men
Are worst of all you meet;
They'll lose their heads about her, them
They'll all fall at her feet.

For when a man has lost his head
Because a woman's way,
He'll fall for anything, It's said,
And do it every day.

If You Need a Medicine
You Should Have the Best

Have you ever stopped to reason why
. IS that SO many products that are ex-
renslvely advel tlsed, aii al once drop o;st
of sight and are soon forgotten? The
reason is plain-the article did not fulfil
the promises of the manufacturer. This
applies more particularly to a medicine.
A medicinal preparation that has real
curative value almost sells itself, as like
an endless chain system the remedy Is
commended by those who have been
benefited, to those who are III need o. It.
A prominent druggist says '"Take for
example DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root,
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 has so large

According to sworn statements and
verified testimony of thousands who have
used the preparation, the success of DIR.
Ki1mer's Swamp-Root is due to the fact,
so many people claim, that it fulfls al
most every wish in overcoming kidney,
liver and bladder ailments, corrects ur-
mary troubles and neutraIizes the uric

PLANT A TREE

II when I am gone
Thou wouldst honor me
Then plant a tree.
Some highway, beak and bare,
Make green with leaves.
So, radiant and fair
And full of leaves my monument will
be.
So ever full of tune&nl melody.
My monument will be
A sight most rare
Trees planted everywhere.
A highway broad from city to the sea
Plant this in memory of me.

The convict had escaped from JAIL
And he was haggard, broke and pale,
And very thin;
But he said: Friend" there is no
doubt,
It's better to be down and out,
Than up and in"

The sheriff's posse captured him
Then with a shout,
And strung him quickly to a limb,
They state with derisive glee,
ooh, we'll, old top, you now can see.
You're up and out"

NEW SONCBIRD FOUND
AT DISTRICT CONCERT
Bernado Olshansky, Assisting So
loist, Rivals Emmy Destinn
in Applause.

Nine. Emmy Destinn, of opera fame.
was the artist of the fifth Concert
Diplomatique" at Polls Theater yes
terday afternoon, bringing with her q
message in song from her land of the
Czecho-Slavs. Unannounced, all IN
heralded, Bernado Olshansky, bass
baritone, was the assisting artist.
and he won immediate and enthusi-
astic appreciation for his art, voice
and style: while at the piano Georges
Lapeyre proved an unusual artist,
bringing into his Accomplishments
that quality that denotes the orches-
ira impressario. And it was found
true, for this artist, who useds This
piano like a stringed instrument, has
been an opera conductor. and doubt
less convincing one.
Gives Music Lore.
Mime Destinnj the dramatic artist,
gave a fund OF historical music lore
of Bohemia. First and foremost was
Dvorak with "Rusalka Song" that
seemed a dramatic tale out of the
folk spirit of a new land. Nine. Des-
tim sang in Bohe nian, giving also
an arioso from Napravnik's opera,
"Dubrovsky." This composer. born
in Bohemia. now represents Russia in
his music: but this music Us national
ir type and rugged in form, demand
ing that folk expression of the genial
and human with which Nine. Destinn
animates her songs.
As composer. she gave two songs OF
her own. The Souvenir" which held
an ingratiating waltz refrain, and
the Maiden Song" with its tripping
dance form, were delightful. The
opera artist was presented in the
Tosca aria "Vissi d'Arte." A Bohe-
milan "Marseillaise" was the Czecho-
Slovak war song she gave an an en-
core, and a distinguished Bohemian
Karel Kovarovic was introduced.
Olshansky Gets Ovation.
But Bernardo Olshansky really re-
ceived the ovation of the day. A
singer Of finish and tempera nent. he
brings much that is new from his ma
tive Russia His opening group of
songs showed the big dramatic singer
OF opera who traverses the emotions
from the stalwart defamation OF
drama, splendid and broad, to music
of sympathy and lyric melody.
Two composers of Russia, new to
US, were Lishina and Stolopina. The
former. in the ballad THE GYPSY"
was vital and big, the latter gave
with Mr.. Olshansky's Interpretation
as effective song in "The Two
Giants" as the calf Of Gold" song
from Faust" In the Gretchan'now
two romances this singer was absorb
ingly interesting, the Death being
knowingly delivered.
This same tone-color OF import was
shown in the French group, the "Reve
Noir" Of Trucco being most impress
sive. and "Mignonette," by Marie
Buchanan, delightful song. A
"Sonnetto di Dante" also stood out in
importance. while three Rumaniar
folksongs. In the original language
were charming combinations of Italy
and the Slav. Mr.. Olshansky sans
the Neapolitan Mamma mia OF Nu-
tile for encore, receiving many re-
calls.
To George Lapeyre the subtlest OF
influences in music is due through his
delightful interpretations at the
piano. J. Mach.
