Albert Salez who sings Romeo so delightfully and has | also the admirable art of ramumhnnng* | his pretty wife's frequent commissions. It seems that M. Saleza was invited to | ing befowe Queen Victorla at Windsor | tle some time toward the close of | e last Grau opera season at Covent | he consented and | cquitted idly goes with- | saying, and y a matter of | urse was it that the Queen should in- | | quire his preference as to the usual gift | | presented under such circumstances, { doubtl expecting the customary re- quest for the cigarette case, which has \x-m eded the spuffbox in the favor of Kings as a royal douceur. But Saleza | | either unaware of the thing customary | | or frankly indifferent to it and munfull\" that aware of one be really needed, sa | 1f her Majesty did not mind he ‘“‘would prefer a_coffeepot of all things!” Mme. Saleza had asked him not on any ac- | count to neglect to bring one home, and it was the wiser part to remember one’s wife's commissions—n’est-ce-pas’ | And her Majesty, who has ever been a patron of the domesticities, smiled ap- | provingly, and was so pleased with ine artist's frankness and originality that | not a coffeepot, but an elaborately beau- tiful whole silver coffee service found its way to the pretty new villa at Bruges, where reside the singer's wife and their two children. It is suggested that there are other seasons at Covent Garden and that perhaps a drawing room suite may come next in order. And why not? . “lg Opera Doomed?’ is the startling title \of a thoughtful and brilliant though lnvonclushe arralgnment of opera as a form of art, by Mr. Edward Baughan in the September number of the London | Musical Record, written, as he puts it, “In 4 lucld moment, ghe resuit of a reaction from a long season’s music, in respect to opera. This being the London season, naturally means Covent Garden _and | Maurice Grau, and in the course of the | article Mr. Baughan confesses that not all | the siren songs of au's expensive | song birds have succeeded in diverting his | regretful attention from the Inherent absurdity of grand or any other form of opera, not even excepting the Wagner- fan music drama, which “is supposed to have cured opera of all its ills. Charles L. Young, the impresario who brought out Mme. Emma Nevada to San Francisco last year, announces a par- | tial arrangement with Calve for 1801 in a | “spectacular prorlucrlon of (‘urmen Another good rum We have been hearing on all hands n!

They try this und that an the | other thing, from carrying a buckeye 1o getting treatment from a physician. They obtain temporary rellef, maybe, but they are never quite cured. A little strain in lifting, excessive fatigue, a little consti- pation, or a little diarrhea and the piles come back. They don't seem to amount to much, but they banish sleep and appetite.
