The Philadelphia Opera and Concert Parly. The Philadelphia Opera and Con cert Party combines the work of five great musical artists, end is unsur passed. The vocalists have been chos en for their especial fitness and fine blending of voices. Bach have achiev ed art ist ic and popular success, and th art of each gives a sense of per* fectness. This unique combination of musical artists represents a adical and highly pleasing departure from the conventional lyceum attraction. It is distinctive and exception in character. These artists present all that is best and most popular in vocal music, cur rent and classical. Their entertain ments are of high order, and of such variety that an interesting and satis fying program is assured audiences (of varied musical tastes.

A Periodical for the South und for Those who Took Part in the Creat War or Who Revere the Memory of Those Who Took Part in it. The publishers of The Confederate Veteran, that sterling periodical de voted to memories of the great war," has Inaugurated a campaign to place the magazine In all the homes of the South. Perhaps there are already many who take the periodical in this county, but there are many who would enjoy the privilege of reading it. The old soldiers doubtless would devour every word that it contains and sure ly tlie children of the old heroes find it interesting. It is published at Nashville, Tenn., and has a wide oir culation over the South. The Confederate Veteran dissemi nates information about soldiers of the war on both sides; it has long rep resented officially every general Con fed..ate organization, and is enthusi astically supported by the men and women who are familiar with it. While ardently loyal, as its name indicates, it is so dignified in tone and so patri otic that it maintains not only the re 8pect but the good will of "the other side." j The Veteran is doing an important Work ill helping fO establish records for dependent men who wore the gray and the widows of such who seek pen sions. Besides, it secures inter-eorn munication between friends of the long ago whose Inquiries are printed gratuitously, The Veteran is printed on fine paper and is Illustrated with high-class en gravings. It Is one of the most cred itable magazines in the country (price $1 a year), and the editor prides him self in the assertion that in the dis tribution of over four million of cop ies he has not heard of fourteen com plaints. The editor of The Veteran has re quested that the southern newspapers aid In the work of placing the maga zine in every southern home. Right at this season of the year an appro priate gift of a year's subscription to any of the old soldiers who are unable j to subscribe themselves would doubt less be greatly appreciated.
