Some OF us do not wish to be COM
PEELED to reconsider that series Of vocal
howls and orchestral shrieks.
Few Works of Merit Heard.
What will probably impress most
music lovers when they weigh the
recent season Is the absence of any
new music possessing loftiness of con-
ception or depth of feeling. The little
that had merit was of the purely cere-
bral type. 1t was laboriously elabo-
rated composition devoid of spon-
taneity and as cold as ice. One could
find in some of 1t admirable workman
ship. This is especially the case with
German music. The German musician
always knows his trade. The Ameri-
can who Is sent to Germany to study
comes home well trained in the Teu-
tonic methods. But he rarely has
much to say for himself. He is prone
to repeat the formulae of Reinecke
and Jadassohn and occasionally to
steal few measures from Mendels-
sohn or Wagner.
TIE new Italians, about whom so
much has been said, have themselves
said almost nothing. Their chief claim
to notice is the fact that they are Ital-
ians and are not writing operas. But
they will. Some of them Eave already
begun. Pizzetti has opened up a path
which possibly some of them may
follow. His "Fedra" must be intensely
interesting to the musical idealist If
it is in the main like the excerpt given
by Mr.. SCHNEIDER at the second ScEola
Cantorum concert.
Motemezzi advanced toward this
style In his "L'Amore del Ire Re" and
his countrymen shook their heads at
him. They preferred "Pagliacci"
They will doubtless shake their heads
more vigorously at Pizzetti. He has
gone still closer to the beautiful ideals
which inspired the fathers of italian
opera and which were dragged speed
lily in the dust after the Venetian
opera Eouses had taught gondoliers to
wait for glorified singers and shout
"Sia benedetta" at them after their
performances.
There will be no great music till the
world settles down again. No i'm
mortal works OF art will be created
while nations are haggling over the
price of peace. There will be no Cos;
fan tutte." no fifth symphony. no
"Orfeo ed Euridice" while peoples are
fastening every morning to buy their
daily papers and find out who has
made the best bargain at Genoa. Nor
will any good come out of Europe till
mems minds are turned finally to the
arts OF peace. Meanwhile we shall
have to listen to machine made music.

This Remedy For
My Own NeighbOrs
Their praise of this newer form of
iron has spread so rapidly that now,
after nine years, over 100000
people use it annually.

Years ago I began to wonder at the
great number Of my own friends and
neighbors who were always ailing, com
planning and doctoring, without ever
seeming to get any better. Both work
Ing men and their wives were frequently
all tired out In the evening, and a great
many were weak, nervous and run down.
One had pains in the back and thought
he had kidney trouble. Another had
pains around the heart palpitations and
dizziness, and was sure he was suffering
from heart disease. Still others had Sc
we're headaches, floating spots before the
eyes. tender spots along the spine and
great variety Of alarming symptoms.
For years l made a special study Of
this condition, consulting a great num-
Der of physicians and chemists. An i'm
mense number of Investigations By physi-
clans all over the country showed that
three people out of every four you meet
lack 100 per cent iron In their blood.
Lack of iron in the blood is the greatest
of I'll devitalizing weaknesses. 1t is the
iron in your blood that enables you to
get the nourishment out of your food.
without iron nothing you eat does you
any good. Your heart, lungs and kid
neys and all your vital organs get their
nourishment from the blood stream, and
when the blood lacks iron and is thin,
pale and watery, you may suffer from
the symptoms OF great number OF dis
eases when the real and true cause of all
your trouble is a lack of iron in the blood.
In the old days people often took me-
tallic iron, which some physicians claim
is not absorbed at all. In compromising
Nuxated Iron I use the newer form of
iron, which is like the iron in your
blood and like the iron in spinach, len
tils and apples. Unlike the older forms
of iron, 1t will not inJure the teeth nor
disturb the stomach, and it is ready for
almost immediate absorption and assimi-
lation by the blood. 1t Is the people
whose blood is rich in iron who possess
great strength, force and energy. If you
are not strong or well you owe it to
yourself to make the following test:

far you can walk without becoming tired

Callouses Also Peeled Right Of,

For many years the burning caIlouses

wear shoes much too large to get around

footballs did no good. But one day,
thanks TO my husbands kindness, he
brought home a box of Gypsy Foot Re-
lief, a secret from the desert. The very
first time l used it, the burning stopped.
Three days later the callouses peeled
right of, leaving the skin soft and
smooth, while the corns between my toes
Just seemed to fade away. The swelling
went down and I can now wear shoes

FROM STAUNTON
Leaves Major Pearl A. Davis in
Charge of Troops in Clay
County.

Maj. Gen. Robert H. Tyndall, who
has been in command of the Indiana
National Guardsmen in Clay County,

to the occupied area.
Provisional Battalion Left
A provisional battalion, composed
of members of all three original bat
talions, will conduct the guard duty
under the command of Maj. Pearl A.
Davis of the First battalion.
Governor McCray announced that
the removal of troops was regarded
as economic and pertinent, as there
was no longer need Of so many sol
diers. Only so long as it is necessary
to supply coal to State institutions
will the remaining troops be held
there, the Governor said.
Ten Cars Loaded
Ten cars of coal were loaded at the
mines yesterday and were consigned
to destination today One car went to
the State prison at Michigan City, two
cars went to the Southeastern Hos
pital for the Insane at Madison, three
cars were sent to the Soldiers Home
at Lafayette and the Boys School at
Plainfield received four cars.
Approximately 700 troops evacuated
the district yesterday.
