g ? | THE OMA BEK: APRIL T i related of a famous Euro. pean conductor of a genera | tion ago, that on one occasion | he was summoned to the court box to receive, as he thought, a speclal compliment on his wonderful work. But the monarch rather disappointed the conductor by remark- ing T have seen conductors In many realme, T have watched them assiduously, 1 have heara thelr work and I am com pelled to admit Herr that I have feen none perspire as freely as you do When Theodore Thomas, the great master of the orchestra, took up his batoh in public concerts, some . peopl used to consider his conducting rather cold because he did not “perspire freely,’ because he did not Indulge in sweeping | beats to the “brasses,” because he did | not go through the motions of our mod- | ern bandmasters, because he did not act | #+ & “prima-donna conductor.” His ef- fects were produced at the rehearsals. | ‘There he worked intensely, ardently and | with honest “sweat.” But when he came to the comcert, that work was done, and | he stepped aside, as it were, so that nothing could interfere in the way of physical personality between the com- poser and the audience. Peoplo went away from the concerts, talking, not about Thomas, but about the Symphony! This 18 as it should be. “Summa Ars, Celare Artem!” was ever the motto of the great artists, The highest form of rt is to conceal the art. In other words, jet your effects at rehearsal and don't show off.” When the mantle of Mr. Theodore | Thomas descended upon Mr. Frederick Stock the “virtue” came with it. Mr Btock Is one of the most active, enthus- jastic, virlle and commanding men at ‘& rebearsal; but In the concert he is qulet and reserved, unobtrusive and undemon- strative. The work has been thoroughly done at rehearsal, and a look, a glance, a slight movement of the hand, indfcates 10 the players a volume of meaning. An artist should mot have to stand before his plcture, pointing out it merite; if it 1s a work of art it should speak for ftaelf, Herein lics Mr. Stock's strength un & conductor; he makes the art-picture, the musical tone-poem, speak for itaelf. Because he does not beckon to the “wood- winds,” “whisper to the strings,” ‘‘chal- lenge the brass,” and defy the drums u-;d' cymbals, seme have fancled him “cold. The should see him st a rehearsal. Stock can do more with his men through hie eyes, than most conductors can with their whole bodies. Therein lies his strength. He 18 recognized by the best HA SUNDAY Soloists for the Mendelssohn Choir's Coming Concerts P —ap—— Fredrick. Stock and been engaged by the Henry W. Bavage and the Metropolitan Opera com- pany time after time; he has been engaged by the leading conductors of ofchestras and by the greatest festivals over and | | over again; ho has sung “from Maine to | California and from Vancouver to Texas” and yet, it is soarcely credible, that he has never before sung in Omaha. The Mendelssohn cholr of Omaha and its conductor, Thomas J. Kelly, feel with [ the Chicago Symphony orchestra, that in | presenting Mr. Witherspoon to local | music lovers for the first time, they are doing & good work for the American | musician, as well es giving to the local musical people an opportunity never hitherto within their reach. ol Of Mr. Lambert Murphy, the brilliant young tenor, who has so enthralled the audiences of the Mendelssohn choir con- certs for the last two seasons, It seems unnecessary to say anything, as fie has already sung and thereby spoken for himself. He is one of the most sterling | artists befove the public today, and it his work were done under the mame of | Morfeo Lambertl, Instead of Lambert authorities as one of the few really great orchestral conductors of the day. —— the class of sololsts offered at these con~ corte.

Miss Margaret Keyes | was one of the surprises of the whole | five-year series of concerts, and no con- tralto who has ever visited Omaha has been accorded a better reception or has oavinced the people with her sincerity, | her art and her genlus any more than | has Miss Margarct Keyes. | | Mr. Bruno Eteindel, the ever popular violoncellist, who is the solo attraction )f the afternoon concert, Tuesday, April 2, needs no eulogy here.

Veleska Suratt, Celebrated on the Amer. lfll..mm. i!l‘u lom-m“ Beauty, Ple Methods of Acquiring Quick Beauty By MISS VALESKA SURATT OW often have we seen women of H beautiful features, but with poor complexions attracting far less ac- tention than women of merewy ordinary features, but with complexions superb and dorable, Faces clear and pure as liliss the faces that conquer. There is only a small percentage ‘women who are really beautiful in features. Providence alone regulates this circumstance. But there are milllons of women 0 little realize the tremendous advantage which can be secured by having a perfect com- plexion in spite o} a lack of beauty of fe: ture. The quick changes which are now the Skin Exquisite e possible in skin beauty are really 8 Mng, b it is regrettable to note that the me: It all depends on wha y here is a formula which eclipses any preparation known for beau- titying the skin results are extraor- I _advise every woman to stop using all other skin-beautying creams and use this formula. Simply mix one table- spoonful of glycerine in a pint of water and add one ounce of zintone. This forms & cream, use it liberally and very soon your skin will take on a most decided clearness and purity, and every muddy spot, red spot, freckie and blemish wiil have disappeared. This formula should mean & fortune to the woman who uses ft. The zintome can be secured at any drug store at a moderate price. i i) MRS. OPIE F.—There is a wrinkle-re- moving formula which has the peculiar property of making the skin plump and wigorous. This is the only way in which all wrinkles, both little and big, can ever be successfully removed. The youthful appearance produced in & short time by the use of this formula is really start- ling. Mix this at home by adding to a half pint of hot water two tablespoonfuls of glycerine and two ounces of eptol This makes half a ph of the cream. costing several times less than you would have to p for. & cream at the stores, and which would not be successful. Any drug store will supply you with the etol By using the cream faithfully, and liber- ally, you will have attained in short order your fondest wish for a perfect, quick wrinkle- ldlc.lor. Pt ROSA B. O.~The only way to remove dandrutf is to diseolve it. Soap cannot do it, simply because of the alkall which it contains. No amount of scalp-scrubbing with soap will remove dandruff. The only thing known which will dissolve all fatty accumulations and dandrutf is eggol, ? teaspoonful of which added to a cup o hot water removes every particle of dandruff and other foreign matter. The lather is exceptionally rich. For a mod- erate price you can get enough eggol to produce twelve or more of these sur- passing head washes. Every head of hair needs a held.-w‘unzl of this kind. TEARFUL—Falling of halr can be positively and quickly stopped by using & mixture of half a pint of alcohol, half a pint of water, (or a full pint of bay rum in place of alcohol and water) and one ounce of beta-quinol, thoroughiy mixed. This surpasses any hair tonic or invigorator I have ever known. It is a hair forcer, actually compelling the hair to grow luxuriantly, frequently several inches a month. Hair stops falling, the hair becomes fluffy, silky and thick, and the formation raft is com- pletely stopped. ¢ ¢ ¢ MISS X-It is regrettable that you could not get the eptol at the drug store. My secretary will see that you get it, if you will write—addressing ‘“‘Secretary to Vzleska Surratt, Thompson Bldg., Chi- cago,” ard enrloll.nl; l.he price, 5 cents. MRS. G. O. N.—Blackheads are simply a local troubie and blood tonice will do no good. It is not generally known that blackheads may be thoroughly removed in a few minutes by getting a s . wetting it with hot water, sprinkling some powdered neroxin on it, and then rubbing it on the blackheads. It is al- most magic in result and every black- head will disappear. Do this every day and you will not be troubled further. It works equally well In very severe cases. ) 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 sulfo solution, every hair, heavy and light, disappears in a few moments Instead of leaving a red spot where ap- plied as other depilatories do, the skin, on the contrary. is left soft, smooth and clear. If your druggist hasn't the simple sulfo solutlon, get the sulfo powder, It is precisely the same, only you wet it with & little water before using. BEREFT—~To develop the bust has often proved a difficult matter, Although you can never be sure of success, never- theless the following formula is the very best you can ever hore to find. It is safe and if anything can succeed, this cer- tainly should. "To a half pint of cold water, add two ounces of ruetone, ob- tainable at any drug store, and half a o of sugar. Mix thoroughly. Take of this, two teaspoonfuls after meals and at bed- time. DR MISS BEAUTY—Yes, the face powder I use is made atter my own formula. It is now supplied by drug stores, and called “Valeska Suratt Face Powder.” Tt Is free from the chalkiness of neariy all face powders, and superb in fineness, smoothness and scent MRS Ti P.—Applications of hydro- llzed talc 89 arm-pits will put an end to the unnatufll and essive perspiration There ix n@thing so effective. so cooling and as economieal. This keeps the arm- pits always fresh, keeps the perspiration under contrel, prevents embarrassment anl the damagze to ments from fad Ing. It also destroys all body odors im- mediately.—Advertisement Let The Bee get you a job. “Situations Wanted” ads are free. -
