The purpose of the Musical Art society is to develop music, and one way to do this is to have our own singers take the solo parts.

Mrs.

MacDowell's appearances thruout the country have brought to that gifted artist and ardent worker most flattering press notices. Mrs. MacDowell will show stereopticon views of Peterborough, N. to be followed by a program consisting only of MacDowell compositions. It was Peterborough where her gifted husband built a log cabin on his farm, in deep woods surrounded by enormous pines.

Here came into existence all the MacDowell music. His surroundings were a source of endless inspiration to him. He realized keenly how much this meant to his own development and how much such environment might mean to others less fortunate. There came to MacDowell the hope that when he was no longer alive to use the Peterborough home, it might eerve to help others. After his death his wife transferred the property to the MacDowell Memorial association, retaining only life tenure.

The grounds now cover 500 acres and are a center of interest to artists and students working in varied fields. Mrs. MacDowell is a highly gifted pianist with jriuch feeling and splendid technique, and knows better how her husband wanted his music to be interpreted than anyone else. Besides her great work in relation to the Peterborough colony, the proceeds of her recitals revert unreservedly to the MacDowell association. Laughter and tears, according to a recent book by Dr.

Folks who are accustomed to feel dull and heavy when they arise, splitting headache, stuffy from a cold, foul tongue, nasty breath, acid stomach, can, instead, feel as fresh as a daisy by opening the sluices of the system each morning and flushing out the whole of the internal poisonous stagnant matter. Everyone, whether ailing, sick or well, should, each morning, before breakfast, drink a glass of real hot water with a teaspoonful of limestone phosphate in it to wash from the stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels the previous days' indigestible waste, sour bile and poisonous toxins: thus cleansing, sweetening and purifying the entire alimentary canal before putting more food into the stomach. The action of hot water and limestone phosphate on an empty stomach is wonderfully Invigorating.

It cleans out all the sour fermentations, gases, waste and acidity and gives one a' splendid appetite for breakfast. While you are enjoying your breakfast the water and phosphate is quietly extracting a large volume of water from the blood and getting ready for a thorough flushing of all the inside organs.
