She has written sev eral songs, which have won popularity, and is busy with others, altho her work I as organist in Wesley church and with her pupils does not leave her as much time for composition as she would like.

Imagine the amount of misery that exists and is endured simply because people do not kn ow there is an absolute cure. The only way to cure any complaint is to remove the cause. There are very few dis eases or ailments that can be cured by ex ternal applicationand piles is not one of them. Piles can be cured the treatment must, however, be internal, for the cause of piles is an internal disorder of the liver or the bowels. Even catarrh of the stomach and bowels can be cured by DR. PERRIN'S PILE SPECIFI C, The Internal Remedy. Here is an instance of what this practically infallible remedy will do: Dr. C. A. Perrin, Helena, Mont."Dear Sir: I have nearly finished the former bottle of Perrin's Pile Specific and am practically well. My case was one which most physi cians would have pronounced incurable, as I was afflicted with a dysentery and compelled to go to the toilet room from three to five times each day and each time would bleed from one-half to one teacupful. I had to resort to bandages and absorbent cotton to check the flow of blood, and now the past ten or twelve days there has been no sign of bleeding and my appetite is good have gained ten pounds in weight and feel like a new, lease of life was given me. Very truly yours, T. R. HARRIS, October 20th, 1902. Yerington, Nev.

Gadski, David Bispham, 8 0 PER CENT O THE ADULT POP- Vladimir de Pachmann, Miss Maud Nichols and Mrs. Shotwell-Piper are among- the soloists engaged by the' Phil harmonic club for the Minneapolis Sym phony orchestra concerts this season. Mme. Gadski, David Bispham and de Pachmann are three of the most famous artists of the day, and the first two are among Minneapolis' greatest favorites. Mme. Gadski has be en heard in the city sever al times in opera but this will be the first opportunity to hear the great ginger in songs. Last season Mme. Gadski's work with the Metro politan Opera company demonstrated that she had developed wonderfully along dramatic lines, while her voi ce had grown broader, warmer and even more beautiful in quality. David Bispham's big resonant voice, extreme intelligence and dramatic sty le has placed him in the first rank of singers and Minneapolitans will hail with delight the chance to hear this artist, who can so thoroly electrify and enthuse his listener s. The Russian, de Pachmann, is one of the greatest pianists now living and during the lives of Rubinstein and Liszt was placed in their rank tho then But. a young man. As an interpreter of Chopin, he has no equal and no other pianist so thoroly understands this great master. Miss Nichols is a young violinist, an American by birth, who se greatest suc cesses have be en made in Europe where she has appeared with the famous old world orchestras. She came to Ameri ca last season as soloist at the Worce s ter festiv al and played with the Bos ton Symphony orchestra. She has fine control of her instrument and plays with true music al feeling. Mrs. Piper is a St. Louis woman who has be en abroad several years ^studying and singing in oratorio and concert. She is an especial favorite in England, where she has sung with all the noted chor al societies. During a short sea son in this country last vea r, she was a soloist with Thomas. Damrosch and the Washington Symphony orchestr a, and at the New England music festi vals. Her voice is high and clear and she sings with intelligence and charm. The soloists for the choral club will be announced later. The Kneisel Quartet. That superb organization, the Kneisel quartet, will be heard among the early musical events of this year, for the Thursday Musicale has been for tunate enough to secure it for the open ing of its season on Oct. 14. This quar tet was organized by its leader, Franz Kneisel, in 1885, and has been playing continuously ev er since. From this long association the perfection of finish and ensemble has been obtained, leaving absolutely nothing to be desired. Until last year the members of the anartet all belonged to the Boston Symphony orchestra, and Mr. Kneisel was the concert master of that world famous organization. The' growing ap* preciation.of chamber music thruout the country and the consequent demand lor their services as a quartet led to their withdrawal fr om the orchestra and made this earlv engagement possible. The concert will be given in the First Baptist church, which is so well adapted to the requirements of, chamber music. WITH THE MUSICIANS. Miss Fanny McLeod will be associated with the faeulty of Holy Angels' academy this year. Mrs. Elizabeth Brown Hawkins will be with the Northwestern Conserratory of Music this winter. William Wrigley and J. Victor Bergqulst have severed their connection with the Johnson School of Music and will have a studio in the Metropol itan building. Mr. Bergqulst ~wlll have charge of the musical department of the Minnesota col lege, and Mr. Wrigley, violinist, and Miss Clara Williams, soprano, will be associated with him. Mrs. 'Elizabeth Brown Hawlilns and Thomas McCracken will sing a duet,- "I Will Magnify Thee, O God," by'Mosenthal, tomorrow morning, in.-the Central Baptist church, and In the eve ning Miss Sarn Brooke will sing,a solo, "FaCfe to Face,", by Johnson.

FAMOUS SOLO VIOLINIST COMES TO MINNEAPOLIS AXEL SKOVGAARDE One of the notable music al acquisi tions of Minneapolis is Axel SkovgaanL until recently the concertmeister and violin soloist of the New York Sym phony orchestra under Damrosch, who has recently opened a charming studio in the Century buildin g. Mr. Skovgaard has determined to remain in Minneap olis during the winter. is what may be termed a born violinist. A the age of 4 he was stud y ing on a tiny violin under the best teachers his native town afforded. A 7 he was giving concerts, and when but 9 he toured the Scandinavian peninsula under a manager. A 13 he was giving concer ts en tour, and at 20 went to Ber lin to study under the world-famous Josef Joachim, with whom he was a favorite pupil. Indeed, so highly did Joachim value the young musician's tal ents that for three years he taught him gladly without compensation, and se cured" for him many solo engagements. Subsequently he studied with Carl Halir and with Sevcik, the teacher of Kubelik an Koeian at Prague. Mr. Skovgaard 'a experience has been wide, both as a soloist and as a leading musician in a number of orchestras. was concert meister with the Berlin Philharmonic club and later soloist of the Meininger Hof-Kapell, during which time he toured Germany, France- and England, playing in London under the baton of Steinbach. Mr. Skovgaard, altho com paratively a newcomer in America, is well known in the capitals of Europe, where he has toured as soloist with such artists as Sendin g, 'Albeta n.d thers. Next W e( nes lav eveni nr W Lo. Har- ris will give a musical at his residence, 1982 Kenwood parkway, to introduce Mr. Skovgaard to Minneapolis society. On that occasion the artist will play a sonata by Sjogren for violin and piano, Corelli's "La Folia," an arrangement by Sarasate of one of Chopin's noc turnes, and Schubert's "L'Abile. will be accompanied by Arthur Stracbauer. FA VORITE PORTRAIT OFPORFIRIO DIAZ, PRES'T OF MEXICO President Porfirio Diaz of Mexico is very fond of Americans, and is not only glad to assist them in commercial and industrial ventures, but enjoys their society. Should they happen also to be Masons, they are doubly welcome at the presidential headquarters in the capitol or at the castle of Chapultepec. On the occasion of a rece nt vis it to Mexico, Mr. and Mrs. William S. Woolf, formerly of- this city, had sever al op portunities to meet the "grand old man" of Mexico, who, in truth, is the whole state. Mr. Woolf's Masonic connectio ns paved the way for a private audience with President Dia z, which the Wool fs will remember as a most delightful ex perience. A parting, Gener al Diaz presented Mrs. Woolf with an auto graph copy of his favorite photograph. This was taken specially for Emperor William after the president of Mexico had received a fine photograph of his imperial contemporary. Mr s. Woolf also retains as a memento of the meeting a note in Spanish invit ing the Woolfs to call on him. President Diaz, who by the way celebrated his seventy-fifth birthday la st Thursday, appears to be in full possession of his physical and mental vigor. His birthday, is the day before the national independence day of Mex i co and the dual celebrati on is the big event- of the year.on the other side of the Rio Grande.

Every school child should know that baldness is a contagious disease, caused by a microbe. Prof. Unna, of Hamburg, Germany, discovered that dandruff, itching scalp, falli ng hair, and final baldness are produced by a germ or microbe that passes from one head to another, where it burrows into the scalp and by multiplying and extending deeper and deeper into the hair follicles, saps the life of the hair root and produces baldness. I TAKES YEARS to produce complete baldness, for the action of the dan d ruff microbe is not constant in every case. I is governed by predisposition, by the state of health, by environment, but particularly by the endeavor made to combat the growth and development of the dandruff microbes, which can only be destroyed with Newbro's Herpicide. This new antiseptic scalp germicide is past the exper imental stage. was made to destroy the germ that causes dandruff and falli ng hair, and by coaxing energy back into the impoverished bulbs, it enables the hair to grow naturally and luxuriantly.
