Omaha Brings Opera , t-o
Home Folks and Its
Friendly Neighbors
Perhaps no season since long be
fore the war has given promise of
such gaiety, such splendor as the
forecast of the autumn season of
1919. Fashionable folks are return
ing from mountain resorts singers
are returning from abroad, and,
right on the heels, of summer, we
chronicle the good new? . that, the
Chicago Opera association is now
ready to start its annual fall tour.
Music lovers are thrilled with the
prospect of two nights of opera in
Omaha. "Aida" and "La Boheme"
are to be given here in October.
"Aida" has been knowri to opera
goers for over half a century, and
still stands out as one of the great
est' lyric dramas ever penned. Its
arias and instrumental numbers are
known to all classes of music loving
people. As for "La Boheme," noth
ing since the time of "Aida" has
equalled it in the history of Italian
music. It is considered by critics
and the Italians at large that Puc
cini has written his master-piece in
this popular opera. Slender in story.
but strong in melody "La Boheme"
has gained a permanent .place in
musical history. ' '
In presenting these popular operas
Mr. Campanini is giving each one
a cast tfiat will be unsurpassed. In
"Aida" such sterling as Rost Raisa,
Sophie Braslau, Alessandio Doki
and Jeorges Baklanorl in the-prin-cipal
roles. whatmore could.be
asked? It is doubtful' that even Chi-
f cago and New York have been able
to boast of more. Witn nonet,
Gluck. Rimini, Sharlow in "La Bo
heme" here is a music feast fit for
the gods themselves. The company
will carry its latest and newest
scenery, and the chorus and orchestra
will not be cut in any manner.
From all over the state music lov
ers will come to participate in the
festivities and enjoy the music of
opera. Omaha people are planning
their entertainments and inviting
their guests; neighbors from Nebras
ka's smaller cities are making great
preparations for the gala occasion.

Fat is fatal to health and beauty.
Reduce weight sensibly and easily;
improve your health and figure.
Avoid heart trouble, wrinkles, ner
vousness, weaknesses, etc., besides
personal embarrassment, due to
obesity.
Look and feel younger. Walk
sprightly. Let your eyes sparkle
with new fervor. Surprise and de
light your friends. Be a girl again!
Go to the druggist, get a small
box of oil of korein (capsules) and
follow directions of the korein sys
tem. Reduce 10 to 60 pounds under
guarantee. Eat all you need (in
cluding some candy, if desired)
while reducing.
Don't bother about going through
tiresome exercises or following rules
of starvation diet. Why not become
slender without drastic drugs, worry
and self-denial? Here's your chance!
