All druggists —ADV. 17 SONGS AND 3 ARIAS IN REPLETE gram of Excellent Quality— Several American Works. By RICHARD L. STOKES. ME. LOUISE HOMER, prima VI donna contralto of the Metro- politan Opera Company, gave of her glorious voice munificently in a memorable recital iast night at the Odeon, her program, with the en- cores, consisting of no less than three big operatic arias and 17 important songs. And her outgiving was as bounteous in quality as in quantity, for throughout the spacious program there was not to be observed one mo- ment’s carelessness, not a second of perfunctory or mechanical singing, not an instant’s lapse from the high- est standards of conscientious art. This American singer, though the mother of six children, remains one of the handsomest artistes before the public; and the audience, unusually large considering that the cancella- tion of the Farrar concert was not made known until this morning, was quite as interested in her as a woman as it was in her as a prima donna. Refinement, style and gracious charm were obvious in her demeanor as well as in her singing; and not every world-famous cantatrice is so delight- fully courteous and deferential to her audiences. Mme. Homer’s hearers re- paid her with the raptest attention and the most fervent applause. Her program, besides its artistic excellence, was notable for two things. The first was that of her 17 lyric selections, nine were by Ameri- can composers. The second was that her songs for the most part were pitched in the mezzo-soprano rather than the contralto tessitura, so that she was frequently called upon for tones higher than the contralto’s or- dinary range. But these rang out with a clarion resonance which proved that they offered little diffi- culty to her capacious voice. Equal to Requirements, Only once did she miscast her and that was in her opening number, the ‘“‘Laeti Signor,’ aria from Meyerbeer's “Les Huguenots.”’ This abounds in | showy roulades, for the agile execution voice, of -which her tonal quality is a trifle But in the remainder of her heavy. 4 ap ; = ——— ¥ Saturday Last Call on Children’s Coats To make a quick disposal of every Girls’ Coat, we have made the most. radical reductions.

New Grand Central, “The Great Divide.” Bu Girls. songs she was completely equal to the requirements, as they demanded dra- matic rather than coloratura skill. Schubert's ‘“‘Eri-King’’ was her sec- ond offering, and it was interesting as this lyric drama. Schumann-Heink, at her recent appearance on the same piat- form, employed what may be called the ventriloquist method, using four differ- ent voices for the four actors in the miniature play. Mme. Homer made no pronounced distinction between the char- acters, leaving the task of telling the story to the words and music. Some authorities consider the latter method the more artistic. But the general con- cert goer, without debating the merits of the question, may be devoutly thank- ful for two interpretations so magnifi- cent. Two Songs by Schumann. Then came two songs by Schumann, “Auftraege’’ and “O, Wie Lieblich Ist Das Maedchen,” and two by Brahms, “O, Wuesst, Ich doch den Weg Zurueck’”’ and ‘‘Botschaft,’’ which, although beau- tiful lyrics, charmingly sung, are not the finest examples of the composers’ inspiration which might have been chos- en. They were easily overshadowed by the succeeding group of songs by the contralto’s gifted husband, Sidney Homer. The first was a setting of Browning's most popular poem, ‘“Prospice,’’ which the program, among numerous other er- rors, weirdly attributed to Christina Ros- Setti. The others were music to Hen- ley’s “I Send You Roses,’’ which Homer has just completed and which his wife sang last night for the first time in public; and settings of Yeats “‘The Fid- dier of Dooney” and Southey’s ‘The Battle of Blenheim.’’ Homer's songs were characteristically modern, aiming not so much at the pure melodic style as at dramatic effect, viv idness of description and gripping nar- ration. The voice part, using uncom- j}mon but extremely effective intervals, was highly spiced with pungent har- monies in the accompaniment; and in the best of the group, ‘“‘The Battle of Blenheim,” one had the impression that the voice was in one key and the ac- companiment in another. Madame Homer sang this ballad with such telling expression that no - one could fail to draw for himself the mora! about war which was voiced by little Wilhelmine’s ‘“‘Why, ‘twas a very wick- ed thing!” in reply to the old grand- father’s “It was a famous victory.” Aria From Taschatkowsky. Next came one of the peaks of the program, the sublime recitative and aria, “‘Adieu, Forests,”’ from Tschaikow- sky’s little-known opera, “Jeanne d’Arc,” in which the singer portrayed convincingly the shepherd girl, called by heaven to her sacred mission of sav- ing her country, and yet confessing all of a girl’s shrinking from her task out in the great world and her grief 1«t leaving forever her beloved forests and valleys. The audience would not be denied an encore, and Madame Homer, after this big aria, surprised everyone by _§re- sponding with another almost as im- posing, the popular “‘My Heart at Thy Sweet Voice,’’ from “Samson and De- lilah.”” To many this encore was the finest number of the whole program, and it was freely remarked that of all the great artists who have essayed it, Madame Homer’s interpretation was the most splendid. The number seemed made to order for displaying the pow- erful vibrancy and velvety sweetness of her voice, as well as her high gifts of emotional portrayal. A Group of Songs. In the following group of songs Mme. Homer introduced to St. Louis music lovers the young Chicago business man, John Alden Carpenter, whose first symphonic poem, “Adven- tures of a Perambulator,” has achieved a sensation this year as great in its way as “The Spoon River Anthology,” by that other Chicago man of affairs who makes art his avocation, Edgar Lee Masters. The first Carpenter song was a brilliant setting of Tagore's poem, “When I Bring You Colored Toys.” The second, “Don't Clare,’ with words in the Dorseshire dialect, af- forded a savor of the rich musical humor which, from all accounts, may be expected when the Symphony Or- “The Adventures of a Perambulator”’” later in the season. The singer's saucy articulation of the words, “I don't clare if they do,” brought down the house, and nothing would do but that she must repeat the entire song. It was followed by a charming new setting to the old words. “I Know a Maiden Fair to See,” by Miss Blanche Goode, of the musical facuity of Smith College, and by an- other bit of humor, Horatio Parker's “Milkmaid’s Song.” Although this concluded the program, the audience remained sitting and applauding, un-~ tfil Mme. Homer returned and sang “Comin’ Thro’ the Rye.” Mrs, Bawin Lapham played her accompaniments at the piano with distinguished inte). ligence. 18 Red Carnations tn Our 61.00 Box. Grimm & Gorly.

If potash should not reach the United States before fall off another 25 per cent, although a larger area may be planted. What this means in loss to the national re- sources of America the South of your country knows best. “Now, why does Great Britain stop this lawful trading between twe countries, which cannot do any harm to her in warfare, but would help the United States. “Simply because she believes she can thereby hit Germany, and the United States jointly, her two largest rivals. “There is anothers question, the question of dyestuffs.

With the immense offensive in the west at the end of September, with increased Italian pressure on the Isonzo at the same time and special pressure brought on the Galician frontiers by the Rus- sians, still we have ample men and guns to send some hundred thousands to pun- ish Servia. 3 So with our resources, with all raw material at our disposal and with an- other several million men not yet hav- ing entered the army, ready to serve) if required, we, from a commercial point | of view, cannot see why this war should | not last another three years, until the despotism of Great Britain’s ruling of the waves has been definitely broken and & real world peace secured.”’ “What do you believe will be the out- come of the war in regard to Germany’s position in the world?’ was asked. “I do believe,” said Herr Lohmann, “that the outcome of this war will bring the German nation that respect by Great Britain and others which our nation re- quired, after a struggle against practi- cally the whole world. “We have been a peaceful nation, wishing nothing more than to be left alone and to continue our trade with the world. But, unfortunately for us, our vigorous and external trade reached closely that of Great Britain, and if an- cther four years of peace had reigned we would have surpassed Great Britain, and this the ‘rulers of the seas’ could not permit. Entente a Menace to Small Nations. “The small independent nations like Greece, Rumania, Bulgaria, etc., are be- ginning to understand the situation. Greece has only recently understood what Great Britain and her allies mean by the protection of the freedom of the small nations by having to maintain 200,000 Franco-British troops on its own soil, although a formal protest was made before the landing took place. “This is the idea of the Franco-Brit- ish allies of the freedom of the small nations. Not one of the Rumanians in Bessarabia has ever been asked wheth- er he wished to be Russian or Rumani- an. Neither has the Czar questioned any Finn whether he wished to be Russian or an independent Finlander. The Poles under the Rusisan ruler were never asked whether they wished to be Poles or Russians. The Egyptians have never been asked whether they preferred to be Egyptians, but Great Hritain simply annexed the country. The Boers had the misfortune to be situated on gold in by giving up their freedom and becom- ing British subjects. This, of course, is, from a Franco-British point of view, the freedom of the small nations.” Germany and America Good Friends. “And will the trade relations between Germany and the United States be friendly after peace has been restored?” I asked. “I am convinced that when this war is over the trade relations between Ger- many and the United States, both finan- Cially as well @s commercially, can and will be materially increased,’’ was Herr Lohmann’s prompt answer. “In Bre- men we have always considered our- selves to be practically a suburb of New York. Our purchase of cotton alone means a sum of one quarter billion dol- lars, and you have to add to this the heavy purchases in foodstuffs, lard, American machinery and other indus- trial products.”’ “And finally,’’ I asked, “show do you look upon the next Congress of the United States in relation to Germany?’ “The American Congress, no doubt,”’ said Herr Lohmann, “will be watched from Germany with keen interest, and all our commercial men are quite alive to the fact that ft is not a question of pro-German or pro-English action, but a question of American right, which the Congress will have to solve, namely, the right of all neutrals to trade in war time under the conditions of the Lon- don declaration with all the world and either belligerent.”’ : Herr Lohmann, beside being the Pres- Bremen, is also the head of the Cotton Importing Co., created since the begin- ning of this war.

JOSEPH, Mo., Jan. 8-—The new | Roard of Managers of the St. Joseph Asylum for the Insane in a secret meet- ing yesterday selected Jacob L. Bretz, a member of the Legislature, steward for the asylum. Bretz’s selection is a victory for Dr. U. G. Crandall, president of the St. Joseph Police Board and usually referred to here as “Deputy Governor for Bu- chanan County.” The asylum steward purchases approximately $200,000 of sup- plies each year. Dr. Crandall for sevéral months has been seeking to place Bretz in the posi- tion. Members .of the Board of Man- agers refused to accede to his demands, and two months ago Gov. Major de- manded the resignations of several mem- bers of the board. They were submit- ted, and the Governor’s new appointees yesterday voted to oust John F. Minor, steward, and appointed Bretz. It is reported: that Minor will contest in the courts Bretz’s appointment on the ground that the law prohibits a tember of the Legislature from accept- ing any other office during the time for which he was elected.

STEEL PAY ROLL Advance of 10 Per Cent to Laborers: Alone Swells Ex- penses $9,000,000. By Leased Wire From the New York Bureau of the Post-Dispatch, NEW YORK, Jan. 7.—By the increase of 10 per cent in the wages of common laborers announced by the United States Steel Corpuvration yesterday and other recent advances made by the same corporation the payrolls of the mills will be increased $15,000,000 a year. The in- crease of the unskilled labor alone adds $9,000,000 a year to the payrolls. The announcement of the increase given to the laborers also stated that further advances were to be made in other departments. Skilled steel roll- ers are now making from $5000 to $7000 @& year. The company employs about 240,000 men, a8 compared with 197,000 in 1914 and 229,000 in 1913, the year of the high- est previous payroll. Of the 240,000, about 160,000 come under the charac- terization of “common labor.” They a 10-hour day. The 10 per cent wages thus increases their pay about $60 a year, or about $9,000,000 for the entire force of common labor. The skilled labor of the corporaiion is paid on a sliding scale, the rate vary ing according to tonnage of output and prices of finished materials. The average pay of all the employes of the corporation in 1914 was $2.5 a day, or 3 cents less than in 1913, when It ts believed here that the so-called | “grandfather law” will be submitted | for amendment, and the Legisiature will be asked to enact a more stringent anti-usury law.

Knapp Began Service With Republic in 1867. Charles W. Knapp was born in St. Louis Jan. 23, 1848, and was therefore almost 68 years old. He was the son o! John and Virginia (Wright) Knapp, his father owning the controlling interest in the Missouri Republican, now the St. Louis Republic. He entered the service | : of the paper in 1867, soon after his grad- - fom —_ ‘s —hesidence rates as low uation from S8t. Louis University. He , 3 worked in the business office and the - #* f* AS a — editorial department, and became the ‘2 raper’s Washington representative. In 1887 he became head of the firm of George Knapp & Co., publishers of the Republic, He was for years a member of the Board of Directors of the Associated Press, and as a member of the board’s executive committee, he was active tn the management of Associated Press affairs. He was at one time president of the American Newspaper Publishers’ Arsociation. The English “Who's Who” contained his name and biographical data, he be- ing one of three St. I.oulsans who were thus recognized. The others were Bishop Tuttle and Prof. F. E. Nipher. Mre. Knapp was formerly Mises Frances Shackelford of St. Louis, and the marriage took place in 187%. Mrs. McConnell is the only child. Three sis- ters survive Knapp, Mrs. Alice Almy of Washington, Mrs. John: Dorrance of Houston, Tex., and Mrs. George L. Bloomfield of New Orleans. A brother, Capt. John J. Knapp, commander of the Philadelphia Navy Yard, who was & years old, died Sept. 2% from apoplexy, after being stricken at his desk. The announcement, made two weeks ago, that Knapp was to sever his long connection with the Republic, caused surprise. A banquet was tendered him, at the St. Louls Club, a week ago last night, and a loving cup was presented to him. He left for New York shortly afterward. Knapp is the latest in a series of prominent St. Louls newspaper workers, who have died within a year. These were Capt. Henry King, editor of the Globe- Democrat; Daniel M. Houser, one of the proprietors of the Globe-Democrat;: Rip- ley D, Saunders, dramatic and literary editor of the Post-Dispatch; Jon. E. Gorse of the Post-Dispatch editorial staff and Edward L.

A promise should not be made lightly, but when made it should be kept. There are a few legitimate excuses, such as the severe illness of one’s self or a mem- ber of one’s immediate family, for miss. ing an appointment, but when this has involved pledging one’s word almost nothing should interfere with it. “M.

Other frequent reasons for the obese abdomen are tendency to hereditary fat and decreased mental and physical ac- tivity, and it is said that two-thirds of all the corpulent persons are women, especially those who have borne many children and are past middle life. The accumuration of fat in the ab- dominal region interferes with the ac- tion of the muscles and organs and nat- urally reduces the respiratory activity, and this only increases the superfluous fat, which might be otherwise burned up through fresh air in the lungs.

This activity breaks down the unhealthy fat cells through an increase in the circulation of the blood. All strenuous exercises should be in- dulged in by the very obese after the muscles have become limbered up through a few weeks’ practice with the milder ones.

COCOANUT OIL FINE|§ FOR WASHING HAIR |¢ If you want to keep your hair in good condition, be careful what you wash it with. Most soaps and prepared shampoos | i contain too much alkali. This dries the scalp, makes the hair brittle, and is very harmful, Just plain mulsified cocoanut oil (which 1s pure and en- tirely greaseless), is much better than the most @xpensive soap or anything else you can use for Seusbeline, as this can’t possibly injure the hair. Simply moisten your hair with water and rub it in. One or two teaspoon- fuls will make an abundance of rich, creamy lather, and cleanses the hair and scalp thoroughly. The lather rinses out easily, and removes every particle of dust, dirt, dandruff and excessive oil. The hair dries quickly and evenly, and it leaves it fine and silky, bright, fluffy and easy to manage. You can get mulsified cocoanut oil at most any drug store. It is very cheap, and a few ounces is enough to last cing bo in the family for months.—ADV If Your Baby Has Croupy Colds|t Just Phone Judge & Dolph They Have the New ‘External’ {Treatment—No Dosing—Just Rub It On.
