THURSDAY, DECEMBER 2, 1897 A Suggestion for Organ Concerts. Ncrwalk is well equipped with line church organs, and it'is equally fortun- ate. in the possession, of, capable organ- ists. The splendid music of these in- struments, however, is enjoyed only by those whoattend church on 'Sunday, and even then the programme is neces-' sarily limited to selections appropriate to. the service and the day. A plan has recently been put into op- eration in Boston that could be adopted in Norwal‘k with great advantage. Re- alizing that the magnificent organs were silent from one Sunday to another th ; organists of that city arranged a srries of free public recitals, at which tile programmes consisted of popular selections—not popular in the sense of being trivial- or trashy, but because they were , pleasing and within the range of universal appreciation. For instance, no scheme contained an entire symphony or a complete sonata, but a single melodious movement from each was selected. Overtures, dainty inter- 1nezzosT’b1-illiantwaltzes and, in fact, good music of every description except- the purely technical and classical com- prised the attractive, but not lengthy, programmes, and the result far sur- passed the most sanguine expectations. Thousands of persons, many of them entire strangers to the interior of a sacred edifice, attended the concerts, and were delighted. Organ music ap- pealed to them from a new point of view, - the organists became better known, and bot-11 performers and audi- ence were benefited. There is no reason why this same plan cannot be inaugurated here with equal- ly, gratifying results. Surely the or- ganists would be willing to devote on one evening in the week some forty minutes-or an hour—the cencerts needs not exceed this limitfto :a recital of this popular character, and we have no doubt that the movement would ‘be re- warded with hearty appreciation. It only needs some church to take the in- itiative to make the plan a SUCCESS. Such a church would widen the sphere of its influence, it would dispense pleas- ure to thousands of music-lovers, and it would aid in develOping a high er culture. The opportunity is one, it, seems to us. which ought not to be neglected. Who will be the first to takeadvantage ofIit? Surely a suggestion so pregnant o..i heeded. A A-‘ FEMININE CHAT.

There is no use making an effortto be generous if it isn’t a full and free gift- ' ' ' Days are too long when we feel ill or sorrowful, and too shelt .when we are happy. Men can retain animosity immensely longer than women, despite all ideas to the contrary. , Life is either sweeter or infinitely mor e per plexing owing to the possession If we were individually to write our own histm us how little of the tea 1 story would be told. 11" 15 a great mistake for a pretty wo- man to wear earrings, and a much greater one when a plain one does so.

' I . I l i'THfE EVEN 1V .‘ New Horse Shoe and Calk. Have you seen or heard of the‘Never- slip H01 se shoe and calk? As the name indicates, it is intended to pre- vent horses from slipping,—-eithe1 on ice, on g1ass, 01 any so1t cf smoothl surface. It is meant to enable the animal to get a g1 ip with his- feet every time he is required to pull. F01 in p1 Opel tion as he fails to do this. he is useless. The Neverslip shoe is as good a shoe as can be made. The Calk‘is inserted by the thread—screwed in with a wrench made for the purpOSe. Your blacksmith puts on the shoe and in- serts the calks—using size of calk a- dapted to weight of horse. After that you can put them in yourself, and when worn. remove them and replace with new ones. It is only a matter of twenty minutes for all four feet. Your horse is then immediately sharp shod without leaving the stable; a manifest advantage of a morning after a sudden freeze—up. Better than waiting two or three hours at the shop. It is so easy to insert and remove the Nevcrslip Calk that you don’t let them wear down as you let the old calks do- And then by keeping the calks long you keep the shoe off the ground and so save wear. The Neverslip Call: does not work loose nor rust fast. By using Neverslip Calks, a set of Neverslip shoes will out-last two or three sets of the old shoes during the winter. Ask your blacksmith for them. For further information address, L. L. ENSWORTH & Son, lOlFront St. Hartford, Conn. BLUE PEOPLE BRIGHT.
