THOMPSON RECITAL
IS MOST CREDITABLE
Young American Pianist Delights
Large Audience in House of
Representatives
John S.vlvanus Thompson, a' young
American pianist who has been wln
ninK laurels both In this country and
In Europe as an artist of rare ability,
gave a recital last evening In the
House of Representatives before a
large and cultured audience. Young
Thompson was enthusiastically greet
ed, and being a native of Dauphin
county, added interest was manifested
in his appearance. His program was
one of exceptional interest and the
applause which greeted each number
proved that it was not above the heads
of his audience.
The great "Walstein" sonata of Bee- |
thoven, which opened the program,'
was interpreted along traditional lines, j
which is merely saying that both as
regards technique and interpretation
nothing more could bo added. There
is a certain virility in Thompson's
tone which makes his rendition of
Schumann's music somewhat unusual,
If not noteworthy. This was particu
larly noticeable in the "Aufschwung"
and "Novelette." There is a certain
hidden meaning in much of Schumann
which the average pianist fails to
fathom. In this respect Thompson
possesses unusual insight. The dainty
scherzo in E minor of Mendelssohn
was admirably played and revealed a
touch of sylphlike lightness.
The Chopin group, "Ballade" in G
minor, "Nocturne" in F sharp artd
the great octave "Polonaise," offered
splendid contrast to the preceding
numbers. In these Chopin numbers
Thompson was clearly at home. In
fact from a technical standpoint,
nothing seems impossible for this
young man to undertake. It is rare!
to find in these days a pianist of ur
tistic balance and a sane conception
of cliiaroscural values. Thompson has
earned the right to membership in this
unusual class. The piece de resistance
was undoubtedly the lust number,
Liszt's "La Campanella," which was
played with a dash and bravoura most
dazzling and called forth thunderous
applause, In fact, the audience refused
to leave until Thompson responded
with an encore. Thompson's future as
an artist pianist is surely assured.
The program was as follows:
Sonata, Op. 53, Beethoven: "Rigau
don," Ranieau - Godowsky; "Auf
schwung," Schumann: "Novelette," E
major, Schumann: "Minuet," E flat,
Beethoven; "Scherzo." E minor, Men
delssohn: "Ballade," G minor, "Noc
turne," F sharp, "Polonaise," A flat,
Chopin: "Caprice espagnol," Mosz
kowski; "Menuet" (all" antlco), Leer
son; "La Campanella," Liszt.

surely causing sour or acid taste in
the mouth, severe pain in the pit ot
the stomach, gas, coated tongue, of
fensive breath, restless nights, and
nervousness.
It's needless for you to suffer this
distress for just a few Mi-o-na tablets
bring joyful relief—They do more for
these little "helps to health" soothe
and strengthen the inflamed and
weakened stomach walls and increase
the How of the digestive juices so
that the stomach can care for the food

spondent but become well, strong,

day's duties.

put your faith in Mi-o-na. Get some
of these harmless but helpful tablets
from H. C. Kennedy to-day and eat

French Room at Astrlch's, Is shown a
charming pastelle model In which the
new Germalne green Is veiled Into
pastelle beauty by three thicknesses of
1-rench crepe,, left with unfinished
edge and very simply trimmed with
dark foliage—a stunning model wltli a
suit of dark green velvet or black
broadcloth.
The Vogue of Dull Leather
The use of patent leather In foot
wear has in no wise affected the vogue
of dull leather, and a model shown at
the Walk Over Boot Shop. 226 Mar
ket street, is rather brought into
striking relief by its aristocratic sim
plicity in construction and modish
beauty of finish. The fineness of the
leather makes the shoe lit the foot
so snugly that the foot appears ex
tremely small and the whole effect
makes for the trimness and daintiness
so necessary in this season of short
skirts. 1 his is a buttoned model with
long vamp, high Cuban heel and a
tip daintily defined by tiny perfora
tions. giving a very distinctive appear
ance. The price Is $4.50.
The Well-groomed Woman
The thousand uses which the weU
groomed woman find for a vanishing
cream makes us wonder how we ever
got along without it, and it is just the
same with the Cream Lilaa sold at the
Gorgas Drug Store for Just 25c a jar
—one wonders after using it, how one
ever endured any other vanishing
cream, for its absolute freedom from
grease, its soft creaminess, and its de
lightful fragrance make it most desir
able for the dainty woman, and in
these days of Fall winds, when the
skin and complexion require extra
care, it is indlsensable for keeping
tho skin soft and beautiful.
