EFFECTS ARE FAR-REACHING[
Americans Find That It 1- Impossible

the 'futons Because of Their
Arrogance and Their High -
Handed Dealings With
the Belgian People.
WHEN the war broke out, a
great many neutral writ-
ers expressed wonder-
ment at the strong feel -
Ing against German music and musi-
cians that Immediately made itself
evident. Hpre than one critic in the
United States urged that art and
artists possess no nationality. The
writers in Canada and F'ngtand re-
plied that such was the rase up to a
certain point. They said that It was
all very well to be tolerant, but the
Germau composers of the present day
breathed the spirit of the-• nation.
Their works seemed to British peo-
ple, especially when highly strung 0y
the anxieties of war, to be stained
with the blood 'of Belgium. As for
DR. KARL MUCK
the German musicians, they showed
an arrogance -that made them impos-
sible wherever they were found. In
Canada a spf it of patience and Brit
fah fair play has been exhibited In

•f the United States have discovered
that human beings possessing red.
blood cannot be at war with a nation
and yet show tolerance towards the
things that remind them of the
nation. When war was declared by
the United States against Germany
last April there wu n0 sign that the
mericans would place a ban upon
German Musicians and music. It was
the high-handed Teutons that forced
the action of the people who -guide
the musical destiny of the Republic.
Karl Muck, the conductor of the
Boston Symphony Orchestra. started,,
the trouble when he retuned to play
"Tbe Star Spangled Banner." This
famous cnndnctor allowed his hatreds
and prejudices to get the better of
him, and he acted In a thoroughly
German manner. Ile tried to excuse
himself after the storm burst by say-
ing that the American national air
was not worthy of a place on a pro-
gramme with classic German music,
but that only made matters worse.
While the controvert), was raging in
Boston. the directors of the Metropo-
iltan Opera House, the greatest oper-
atic centre ein the continent. were
discussing the advisability of drop-
ping German music from their reper-
toire. The trouble in Boston forced
their hand, and Wagner and others
went into the discard. Then they got
a sample of Herman arrogance. The
Bun singer*. who had been retained
,tor nine months after the outbreak
of the war when the Americans
would have been within their rights
in Interning them. sued for their
salaries. These two Incidents started
a general • house cleaning in Ameri-
can musical circles. The Germans
were dismissed from the orchestras
and similar organizations, and one
conductor In the Middle West was
placed under arrest: They can alt

Well -Known Clergymen Praise Tanlsc
Joe Good It Dad Them.
Ministers from some of the greatest
comniunious in the land have put Tanlac
to the test and have come out in state-
ments
tatements endorsing the medicine for the good
it has done them.
Rev. W. C. Norton. pastor of the
Wesley Memorial church of Jacksonville.
Fla., sEys: "1 suffered from indigestion
for years, seldom slept well and had
severe headaches. Since taking Tanlac l
feel as well as' 1 ever did, sleep soundly
and can eat anything I want. Tanlac
has restored my health."
Rev. A. H. Sykes, of Nashville. Tenn.,
says: "Mrs. Sykes suffered from stomach
and kidney disorders and a nervous
breakdown. Tanlac restored her health,
she is gaining weight and strength
rapidly."
Rev. E. G. Butler, Muskogee, Okla..
says: "1 had attacks of acute indigestion.
Resultsfrom taking Tanlac have been most
satisfactory. It is the best medicine 1
ever tried."
'Htmdceds of other well-known ministers
have tes/lhhed to the merits of Tanlac.
among whom are: Rev. F. M. Winburn,
fan Antonio. Tex., Rev. R. J. Taylor.
Franklin, Tex., Rev. -A. L. Till. Atlanta,

Is America having?
On all sides one hears talk of household
economy, and thrift in every aspect of
daily life. It is interesting to learn Just
what Is being accomplished along these
lines, and an article by Lucy Oppen in the
February Good Housekee ng is particu-
larlyIlluminating. She sa s:
"The first tactor which would lead us
to expect an increase .is the (act that the
home gardens, the increased use of per-
ishable foodstuffs, and tl,e increased
amount of home canning contributed
very materially to the kitchen refuse of
1917. The second factor, which would
lead us to expect an increase instead of a
decrease this year, is the fact that in
practically every butcher shop in the
country. the scraps of fat and bones,
which were formerly thrown under the
counter to be sold to renderiii companies.
are now pushed off to the customer. Fig-
ures from the rendering companies which
used to buy these scraps how that the
housewife is now doing her own rendering.
"Under these conditions, the retort
that the quantity of garbage' collected
during the first nine months of 1917 in
eight one cities showed a decrease of
tae Ve to fifteen per cent. over the,(?ollec-
tions of 19Iti is nothing short of marvel-
ous. Translated, th.s means that the
housel(eeper who used to put seven or
eight pounds of material into her garbage
pail every a eek has not added a pound or
two, as might be expected, on account Of
her larger use of perishable foodstuffs and
butcher s straps. Instead shg has,actually
withheld one pound out of every seven or
eight ahich used to go into the can. and
has exercised her culinary(, skill to put it
into the soup kettle or baking -pan."
Not Up to Date.
While taking dinner at the village inn a
heavy thunderstorm began to fall. Ike!"
remarked the city man, gazing at
the driving • rain. "It looks like
the flood." "Like the flood:'"
wo ndr, ingly responded the waitress.
"Yes." answered the guest. "You have
certainly heard of the flood, and how the
boat landed on Mount Ararat?" "No.

the waitress. "1 haven't sten a news-
