The former n leading contralto and the later leading tenor at the Metro poliian Opera house, they are sure to give the music lovers of this city one Of Inc best concerts that has ever been heard here.
 Both have had quick rises | O fame Tn the musical world and both have succeeded in the passing years 10 hold their audiences spellbound with their artistic renditions of their mum bers, both lyric and dramatic.
 Miss Lazzari has been hailed as "mcteoric' since her career before the public is only four years old. The rise of MT. Diaz is likewise hailed as meteoric. The tale of his successful appearances in Boston, on concert tour under Oscar Hammerstein and his subsequent appearances in the Metropolitan, is a story of one step higher on the ladder of fame.
 Both artists made a thorough pre- paration for their entry into the con- certists. having studied in Italy under the worlds best music teachers and in this country under famous vocal ists.
 Their appearance here next Sun day, should be hailed as the event of the season in the musical line as they h1J- n ylpnr all over the country.

Eight Hours is Too
 Long for Studying

Paris, March 23.-Madam Curie, discoverer of radium, appears to be taking her duties as member of the Academy of Medicine very seriously. She was present when. the Academy discussed reforms in secondary edu- cation and spoke in favor of shorter hours of study in High schools. The motion under discussion was to the effect that the time devoted to classes and home work should not exceed eight hours for the lower classes and nine for the higher, Madame Curie gave her opinion that eight hours was too long for the smaller children, and the motion was therefore sent back to a subcommittee for reconsideration

 Many q gown is severely plain as 10 it's bodice, for iio other apparent reason than to make n more favor ing background for the jewels Of its fair wearer.
 Pearls arc still in high vogue, but glass beads are lately amazingly smart, while the novelty jewelry of jade, coral, amber and precious stones ( or their clever imitations) is increasingly popular.
