Soloists for the Mendelssohn Choir's Coming Concerts

.T I related of a famoua Euro
pean conductor of a jrenera
tlon ago, that on one oerealnn
he waa luromonM to the court
box to receive, an he thought,
a special compliment on hie
Wonderful work. But the monarch rather
disappointed the conductor bv remark
In: "I have een conductor In many
realms.. I have watched them asiilnoualv.
I have heard their work and I am com
pelled to admit Herr . that I have
pen none peraplre an freely aa you do."
When Theodore Thomaa. the srreat
master of the orchestra, took up lilt
baton In public concerts, ome. . people
nerd to conilder hla conducting rather
eold becauae he did not "peraptro freely,"
becuee he did not Indulge In weeping
heat to the "brBaaea, becauae he dll
not ito through the motion of our mod
ern bandmaster, becauae he did not act
a a "prlma-donna conductor." Hla ef
fct were produced at the rehearaala.
There h worked Intenae.ly, ardently and
with hotieat ' sweat." Hut when he came
to the concert, that work waa done, and
he ateppod aside, an It were, ao that
nothing could Interfere In the way of
phratcal pereonallty betwern the com
poaer and the audience. Teoplo went
away from the concert, talking, not
about Thomaa, but about the Symphony!
Thla la aa It ahould be. "Summa Are,
Tela re Artem!" waa aver the motto of
the great artiats. The highest form of
art la to conceal the art. In other worda.
Get your effect at rehearsal and don't
ahow off."
W hen the mantle of Mr. Theodore
Thomaa descended upon Mr. Frederick
Block the "virtue" camo with It. Mr.
Stork la one of the moat active, enthua
lastlc, virile and commanding men at a,
rehearsal; but In the concert he la quiet
and reacrved, unobtrualve and undemon
atrative. The work ha been thoroughly
done at rehearsal, and a look, a glance,
a slight movement of tha hand. Indicate l
to the olayera a volume of meaning. An I
artlat ahould not have to atand before
hla picture, pointing out lta merit; If
It la a work of art It ahould apeak for
Itaelf. Herein Ilea Mr. Mock's strength
aa a conductor; he make tha art-picture,
the musical tone-poem, speak for Itaelf.
Hecaua he doea not beckon to the "wood
wind!." "whisper to the trlnga," "chal
lenge the brae," and defy the drum and
cymbal, me have fancied, him "cold."
Tha ahould aee him at a rehearsal.
Hto U can do more with hla men through
hi ree, than moat conductor can with
their whole bodloa. Therein lie hi
atrength. He la recognlaed by the beat
authorities a one of tha few really great

been accorded a better reception or haa

Tha Mendelssohn choir of Omaha and
It conductor, Thomaa J. Kelly, feel with

startling;, but it la regrettable to note
that the meana employed to obtain theae
chanarea ara not only weak, but uaeleaa
In moat casea. It all deprnd on what
you use. There la a formula which
anllpaea any preparation known for beau
tifying the akin, lta reaults are extraor
dinary. I advise every woman to atop
using all other akin-beautylng creama anil
uae thla formula. 8lmnly mix one table
apoonful of glycerine in a pint of water
and add one ounce of xintune. Thla forms
a cream, uae it liberally and verv a Ton
your akin will take on a most decided
eiearnesa and purltv, and every muddy
a pot. red spot, freckle and blemish will
have disappeared. Thla formula ahould
mean a fortune to the woman who uses
It. The stntoraj can be aecured at any
drug store at a moderate price.
MRS. OPIB F. There la a wrinkle-removing
formula which has the peculiar
property of making tha akin plump and
aigoreua. This la the only way In which
all wrinkles, doui nine ana can ever
be auccessfully removed. The youthful
appearance produced In a abort time by
the use of this formula la really atart
llnr. Mix this at home by adding to a
half pint of hot water two tablenpoonfula
of glycerine and two ounces of eptol.
Thla makea half a pint of the cream,
oodting several times less than you would
have to pay for. a cream at the stores,
and which would not be successful. Any
drug store will supply you with the entol.
By ualng the cream faithfully, and liber
ally, you will have attained in short order
your fondest wish for a perfect, quick

ROSA B. O. The only way to remove
dandruff is to dissolve It. Soap cannot do
It. simply because of the alkali which It'
contains. No amount of scalp-scrubbing
with soap will remove dandruff. The only
thing known which will dissolve all fatty
accumulations and dandruff la eggol, a.
teespoonful of which added to a cup of
hot water removes ' every particle of
dandruff and other foreign natter. The
lather la exceptionally rich. For a mod

produce twelve or more of theae sur

blackheads may be thoroughly removed
In a few minutes by getting a sponge,

SARAH M. H.-I do not wonder that
you did not succeed In removing the
superfluous hairs you mention. Why not
dissolve them away Instead of burning
them off? By moistening the hairs with
simple aulfo solution, every hair, heavy
and lifrht. disappears In a few moments.
Instead of leaving a red spot where ap
plied as other depilatories do, the skin,
on the contrary, is luft soft, smooth and
clear. If your druggist hasn't the simple
sulfo solution, get tho aulfo powder. It is
precisely the same, only you wet tt with
a little water before using.
