I really think mure of the first one. BROKENHEARTED JOE. I'm afraid that you are rather a quarrelsome young man. If a girl forgives you for quarrel ing with her. you ought to be thank ful enough to forget all about the cause of the quarrel and go all the rest of the way to make up wi n her. Did you apologize to the second Sirl? Keep company with the one you like best, but hold your temper better bereaf er. Remember that a gentlf man never quarreis with a lady, no matter what the provocation may be. Dear Mrs. Thompson: (1) 1 am 18.

"The Fronzaleys need as li'tle com ment as to their playing as the Knei ael organization," declared the Jour nal. "Their tone is suave and power ful. and intimately impressive.-' "The program," said the Evening Telegram, j "was well chosen and the enaemblo i was, if anything, beter than last sea-! son when the quartet '.eft so many pleasant memories behind it." "Fronzaley is now a household word In two hemispheres," declared the Evening Sun, while the Olote as serted that the players, "soon showed that they bad advanced the standard high as it had been placed over previous years." "Aa between the playing of these admirably artistic and finished mufl claus." wrote Reginald de Koven in the World, "and that of the Kneivl quartet, any decided piefereuce cither way must remain 'a matter of personal taate. With duo consideration of nil essential requisites of high c lass quar tet playing, e'.eganctcs iind finish of style, beauty aud unity of tone and balance of eiisenible elTect, one iuif.;l! well hesitate befoie awarding the palm to either.
