the coliseum will be one of the most

Important events for the week. The sale of seats is now open at the Starr

Piano ware rooms. The patroness list

contains the names of a number of the most prominent women of this city. One cannot know Mme. Gadski but to love her. and no fellow artist or cultured musician ever came in contact with her without being the gainer. At the Cincinnati Festival last May there were always crowds of admirers about her. Sho was feted everywhere, and her dressing room and hotel apartments , were always filled with flowers sent her dally. A prominent tenor was discussing with the prima donna the Italian style of singing, whereupon Mme. Gadski suggested that he come to her and she would illustrate her views by training him in a Mozart aria. Gadski broke a social engagement to give this "lesson but she was repaid by the gratif tude of a fellow artist whose place in the musical world was hardly less distinguished ttian her own. The incident i

Illustrates but one side of Mme. Gad-

ski's lovable personality; her art is everything, and it takes precedence over , all other activities and pleasures. Interest in Mme. Gadski's coming is keen, t The tour, which is under the direction of Mr. Loudon Charlton, is comparitlvely brief, so that local music-lovers may consider themselves particularly favored.1 j . - ' "No one,", writes a NewYorli crltic i referring f to , Gadski. repossesses y a name which today stands for 00 much of fulfillment.

In this form of outdoor sport, the first costumes being turned out are much in the way of experiment, for the requirements are yet almost unknown. Of present day and ordinary fashions, the general impression given by the models shown by the best tailors those with established reputations is that the Winter styles will be very pretty and vastly more becoming to the average woman than the Noah's Ark gowns of the past season, for they certainly did look like the garments

that often clothed the wooden doil images that delighted us in our childhood dtiys. ' The waist line is again in its normal place; sleeves of moderate size, neither very large nor very small, white skirts, although more full around the bottom, still outline the figure by clinging closely above. The effect of veiling satins and silks with soft, thin materials continues. A great deal of velvet, passementerie and fur will be used as trimming. As for women's hats sad to relate, they are more enormous than ever, generally speaking. When will the size limit be reached? Feathers are worn to a great extent and also bows, but it must be an unusual face that can wear these immense head coverings without appearing at a disadvantage, for they are distinctly "trying" to the average female countenance.

TRIBUTE IS PAID TO THE SUCCESS ATTAINED BY COUNTY SCHOOLS DURING THE PAST ONE HUNDRED YEARS. Business of the 'Wayne County Teachers association, the annual

j meeting of which was held at the high

school auditorium Saturday, concluded the Interesting program. Officers were elected' and resolutions drawn up by the special committee approved and adopted by the association. The officers elected to serve the ensuing year were Mrs. Isadore Wilson, Cambridge City, president; Prof. J. C. Starr, Boston, secretary; and County Superintendent C. W. Jordan, treasurer. President F. J. McConnell of DePauw University, was the principal speaker at both the morning and aft

ernoon sessions. Not only were the addresses of much value to the teachers, but also to patrons as well. The addresses were practicable and inter

esting. mi

me musical numoers on the pro

gram were excellent, particularly the

selections rendered by the high school orchestra under the direction of Prof.

Will Earhart, supervisor.

The resolutions were expressions of

appreciation or the efforts of Dr. Mc Connell and Prof. A. C. Shortridse,

founder of the Indianapolis high school

and Prof. Will Earhart Concerning Centennial.

In respect to the centennial anniver

sary of the founding of public schools in this county, the resolution is in part

as follows:

"One hundred years having passed

in the history of schools in Wayne county, the association recognizes

with a high degree of satisfaction, the wonderful progress that has been made in the growth and development of our educational institutions. Because of their standing and efficiency our schools rank second to none to

those of no other county in the state

In regard to the February meeting

of the association the following reso

lution was drawn up:

"We believe that it would be of great advantage to the association to devote the February meeting of 1910 to

a conpideration of the history, wants and needs of the Wayne county

schools, and we accordingly recom

mend that the executive committee be

instructed to select not less than twelve members, six of whom shall

prepare papers upon topics relating to

the above subjects, and six who shall act as leaders in the discussion of the

papers thus prepared and to fix the

time that shall be devoted to such pa

pers and discussions."

purpose oi commercial aggrandizement. It is acknowledged that all food to be preserved for future consumption reguires a preservative of some kind, and

ii oniy remains to discover what that

preservative shall be. Olla of Spices Daas-eroaa.

Great stress has been laid upon the success of the home method of preserving with spices and vinegar, but that this is not altogether satisfactory, and may even prove dangerous is seen

in a statement by Dr. 5. P. Sharpies, the famous Boston chemist, who. after jfrtv years of experimentation, says: The effect of spices upon the digestive functions is infinitely bad. and in mv

opinion tar worse of effect than either

tenzoate of soda or salicylic acid. I save been aware of this for years. Spices are themselves the most powerful chemical preservatives, and have teen known as such for centuries. The ancient Egyptians recognized this, and used them for embalming." In the same connection Dr. J. N. Hurry, of the Indiana State Board of Health, ha said: be!ir.ve that pices are irritants, and highly injurious. Strong vinegar percolated over a mixture of cloves, pepper, cinnamon, etc, results in a powerful antiseptic that is injurious." In this connection it mme tm mimi

that Professor John H. Long, of Northwestern University, Chicago, recently testified at the Denver Food Convention as follows:

At the reouest of a larve minn fea

turing firm there was sent to my laborstory a mass of rotten tomatoes with which to make catsup. I meanwhile had gathered up more rotten tomatoes, ap-

icw pcacnes, ana some bananas.

These were allowed to rot farther, through four or five days. Out of this about two gallons of catsup were made. Some of it was preserved with vinegar and spices, some with benzoate. and some left unmixed. The odor and taste of the last were bad. that with the benzoate showed essentially the same condition, while with the vinegar and spices a, fair grade of commercial catsup was secured. A worse lot f raw material could not be imagined, yet the inferiority in one lot of product was completely concealed by the use of vinegar and spices. Benzoate has but little taste and no odor. and. therefore, it cannot conceal inferiority." Maetler'a Flip-Flap. As an evidence that individual irit

likely to buy mouldy or fermented goods from the grocer. When the goods are made on a large scale, although with the same care and cleanliness, you can readily see what will happen when they are shipped over long distances and tranportcd from one climate to another. If

any mould has formed before the goods are shipped, the mould will become mixed with the entire contents of the package during transit, and if complete spoilage did not take place on this account, the consumer would be eating mould, which, in mv ooinion. is more

objectionable than to eat the small and harmless quantity of added preservative

required to prevent its formation.

Again, if goods were sliarhtlv fer

bacteria of fermentation would become

mixed with the balance during the transit, and the whole package would go up in fermentation. Now. let us come to

the other's labors, but it is certain that the medicinal properties of benzoin the active principle of benzoic acid has been known since shortly after the Elizabethan era. The use of this substance as a preservative for foods, however, was not attempted, nor perhaps known, on til a decade ago. Manufacturers of food products who had been using the acetic acid and spice method cast about for an equivalent that would perform the desired service with fewer of the drawbacks of the earlier or home method, and it was suggested that benzoic acid could be "cut" or neutralized with soda. Exhaustive experiments were carried on

jug mese lines, and alter two years several firms decided to make use cf it. This took place in 1S09. or nearly seven years before the aJcpt.cn of the present rood and Drug La a-. "Benroic acid, then, we have learned, is actually the vual natural substance, contained in certain m nor fru.ts and

vegetawes. that acts as a preservative against decay. W hen combined wkh soda and applied to sny vegetable or animal substance, hs action is precisely the same as in its natural state and placeit arrests the process of decay. The quantity necessary adequately to prevent the process of fermentation which is actually decay is verv small, and it effectually prevents the development of bacteria, destroying these should they find entry. In the form of benzoate of soda this preservative is a white crystalline substance, and it is colorless, odorless, and practica.lv tasteless. That which is used in foods : obtained from toluene, a coal-tar product. The impression wh:ch has been fostered to the effect that it is obtained from hippuric acid is erroneous. Such benzoic acid is too expensive for commercial ue. and is of German production. Importers state that not an ounce is sold in this country for use in foods. Dr. H. W. Wiley has stated : 'In so far as I know, none of this particu'ar kind of benzoic acid is used in food-.'" M"T SrleatUta Qate.

Vmmm rr..,rT.(lT. That the cry against a proper preserv
