The present writer ru, with several of his class nintes, suping in grand opera in Boston. Ye ered with tarnished mail, carried a pike, and had on v is head, a tin helmet ahiit half a size too small for him. Somewhere during the middle of the performance he was wandering about, seeing what be could see, supposedly safely behind the drops, when suddonl from the side of the stage nearest him, a huge form loomed, and descended upon him like the Queen Mary on a row boat, off the banks of New Foundland. He was brushed back like a ione ehick, before an outraged mother hen, mail, pike and all, amid an outpouring of German gutterals he didn't understand, and when the avalanche finally stopped he found himself fee to face, with none other than Mme. Schumann- Heink,. "My poy, my poy" she see your and as tbe irate and excited Jewish stage manngcr, shirt sleeve waving in the air, drove in from the rear, she waved him back, patted the terrified supe on the shoulder, and said dot's all right, dot's all right swooped back from whence she THI la HE "grand old lady" of grand opera, stage and screen, died ast night, five years over and ten. And this incident we think, perhaps serves, ai well as any other, to typify the life and character of the greatest grand opera contralto of the Twentieth Century, and perhaps of all time. Sohumann-Heink, was a star prime physically and vocally, with an annual income probnbly exceeding $100,000 a year, but then as later she was a German mother first, with a heart, so big and strong that it literally took in the world, and also literally conquered it. Imagine a Molba, a Gatlski, observing a sap-headed supe about to stumble into a scene, tak ing advantage of a brief breathing spell, to prevent such a catastrophe, and doing it in the efficient fashion in which it prima donna She didn't know him, he didn't know her they never met again but he was a young kid about to get in a mess and she was no prima donna but a madonna in the flesh ami going to help him. 'MO, Schumann-Think was never a prima donna, ifl fact, or in temperament, a contralto seldom takes the leading role. She had plenty of temperament and plenty of temper too when properly aroused, but one must go back to that elemental and overwhelming maternal quality again to understand why she never indulged in those fits and furies which are supposed to be the inalienable right of the supreme operatic or dramatic star. She would fight for her rights, like one of her own valkyries, but only her rights, She asked no special privileges, never put herself above the crowd, and was always too consid erate of the feelings of others, ever to infringo on them, for the exclusive satisfaction of her own ego. IN short she was a GREAT woman, a wonderful-character, and represented a type which in our world today, is becom ing all too rare, Superficially of course one might almost con sider her modern. Like some of her Hollywood prototypes, she had been married three times, divorced twice, but search in her domestic and personal lifo as you will, and you will find no hint of romantic triviality, no breath of scandal. Of course physically she wasn't the type. Big as a house, plain as a fence, if she had wished to be, sho could never havo been cast for a romantio role. Rut sho didn't wish to be. In fact early in her career, the director of the Vienna Court Opera, gave her one appraising look and told her to forget art, buy a sewing machine and work. CHARACTERISTICAMjY, she did just that! Hut that "pipe organ voice" of hers, coupled with her energy and determination, proved too strong a combi nation even for operatio directors or physical handicaps, to overcome. ,4 OUT it wan more than ahseneo of pulchritude, that, ncc for tho wholesomencHS, simplicity and rectitude of I behind the footlights. It was the essential quality of her na ture, the way she wa mado the deep integrity of her char acter. She was as before stated, first, last and all the time, the devoted and self-sacrificing mother not onlv a mother of the old school but, the classic mother type going back it may be, ! to that primitive age, when mothers ruled tha world. yillS truth waa most clearly brought out during the World war, when speaking broken Knglish herself Schumann Ilcink had nons in both the American and German armies, and another of her brood of eight, on a German submarine. Loyally she held to the land of her adoption, touring the training campa, singing for the soldiers, but again she wan the MOTHER before everything. Those boys of hers, doing their duty as they saw it, but fight ing against her own adopted land, were still her boys, and those who heard her appeals during the war, asking not begging asking as a mother's right Indulgence and consideration, for those of her ohiltlren who were wallowing in tho mud of the German trenches, were given a demonstration of courageous, forgiving and all embracing motherhood, which, one of her auditors at least will never forget. A ND It's in that role, that we would leave Mme. Ernestine Schunmnn-Heink, not ag Ortud in Lohengrin, or Erik in "Pie Walkuere" great as those roles were, but just as a German American mother, offering her sons willingly to her two countries, and stretching out her big arms, over land and sea, to cher and to protect them I CALLED BY DEATH Cecil Karl Ryder, ftft, dlrd at the home of his lntertn-law, Mr. A.

An antidote for this Is the dally roll ing of somersaults. It takes only a minute to do a dozen or two first thing on rising In the morning.

Is It all right to give children 4 and 7 years old the Iron snd ammonium citrate solution you recommend? They are pale and Iron tablets were prescribed. (O. C.)

If one has no teeth and no plates, but cuts meats and fresh vegetables In small pieces or mashes them be fore swallowing, will digestion be Just as good as though one had his own teeth or false plates? (E. L. R.) Answer No. Without teeth, one Is certain to suffer with difficulties due to faulty digestion. It Is Indeed a strange niggardliness or a queer out' look which enables one to try to get along without teeth. The In evltable outcome of such perversity Is premature breakdown. Superfluous Hair.
