Its metallic tinkle makes her rounded, soft cheek glow and her pure blue eyes ghine and her long, slim fingers tingle with desire. She loves variety. Since her birth Mignon has enjoyed unusual advantages, all of which have tended to cultivate her many gifts. The little HERE is a little girl in town who has romped with the boy King of Spain and has been compli- mented for her wondrous gift of song by England’s Princesses—a little girl whose picture hangs in & Queen’'s boudoir and who has written a poem s0 tender and so touching that Cassals, the great cellist, has set the words to musie. This marvelous child is Mignon Palmer, daughter of the famous song 3 bird, Emma Nevada. Mignon is 13 years old, a big, romp- ing, bappy girl, with so many talents and wondrous gifts that her proud parent and the friends who come in contact with her involuntarily lower thelr volces when they speak of her and call down a blessing on her sun- ny head. Mignon is not a prodigy. A prodigy 1s a youthful, con- ceited, abnormal being that blazes up for a brief moment and then splutters i ? out. Emma Nevada's daughter is a wonderfully gifted creature, healthy both in mind and body, who sings be- cause melody is in her and writes be- cause her soul is overflowing with poetry. She is as unconsclous of her rare gifts as s a flower of its beauty. She 1s full of vigorous life; she is a genius. Little Mignon does all things well. Her mind knows no medlocrity. She paints, she models, she writes and she sings. Those who have heard her sing- ing voice vow she will make such an artist as the world has never known. Those who have read her storfes stand in wonderment before the output of the child’s mind. Mme. Nevada says: “My child shall girl has traveled extensively. She has moved In a set that has known some of the greatest minds of all Europe. She be a singer and the world will stand has been reared in an atmosphere of stlll to listen to her.” Dr. Palmer, the music. Ambroise Thomas, the com- child’s happy father, says “Our is her godfather. poser of *‘Mignon,” Mme. Marchesi, the celebrated vocal instructress, is her godmother. Her talented mother, though never having glven her a course of vocal instruction, has always been near to correct any fault that she might acquire and her father has watched with all his trained daughter is a genius.,” herself says: “I love to sing and oh, I love to write—sad tales that make you creep and want to cry—and I love to typewrite.” A typewriter is Mignon's latest toy. It is her latest novelty and therefors Little Mignon : ST. LOUIS IN THE FIELD. Representatives of the Middle West to Attend Retail Hardware Association Meeting. Frank N.
