"Voice, voice, and voice." This axiom has never been disproven, yet to sing with power and precision something of still greater importance is neces sary perfect physical health. Lacking a robust physique, with diaphram ana trans-abdominal mus cles tinder- virile control, no singer though1 sne had a voice to charm the insensate stones and trees can ever hone to achieve success. Therefore, eat wholesome food, get an adequate amount of .sleep, and adopt a routine method of " living. Agreeable, diverting exercise is also neiprui. ine use of tooacco in any form is extremely harmful, because of the irritating action of the smoke and nicotine upon the vocal cords. THROAT SPECIALISTS IN THEIR RELATION' TO VOCALISTS Of late years the necessity of . ex pert medical advice for conditions pe culiarly affecting singers has been rec ognized, and many well equipped phy- sieians have adopted this work as a specialty. Dr. Acerbi, of Milan, Italy, was the first of these specialists to make a diagnosis of throat trouble in singers by using the musical scale. His method is to have the patient sing the various notes of the scale, study ing each individual . note with refer ence to its proper degree of resonance. Through slight deviation in resonance of certain tones he is able to locate physical difficulties and mak. a. diag nosis as to their origin in the chest, lungs, vocal cords, larynx or the nasal passages, and direct his treatmdbt to the particular organs affected, there by facilitating recovery. :- This procedure is followed to a very limited extent, in this country; one well known New York throat special ist having taken it up lately with ex traordinary success. A SUGGESTION FOR . f OVERCOMING NERVOUSNESS Those who are inclined to be extremely-nervous when singing would do well to adopt a little suggestion from Signor Ciapini, formerly one f the greatest oantones or ttaiy, ana the first to interpret the role of Ben ate, in Verdi's '.'Masqued Ball." He advocated that immediately before singing the vocalist , should inhale deeply several times, and then relax preferablv bv sitting down and hang-1 ing the arms limply at the side. Thi practice makes for smoothness and a more accurate focus. TThe voice will be freer, better, poised, more power ful, and devoid of . distressing trem ulo. ' - Of course, a slight amount of. ner vous tension -is desirable, but it -must be under absolute control. Without it, naturally, the singer will be methr odical, phlegmatic, and passionless. Nervousness- inhibits the secreting power of the salivary glands, causing distressing dryness of the mouth. To overcome this, Signor Sorrentino rec ommends that a small granule of salt be dissolved under the tongue before singing. Caruso finds it of advant age to chew a piece of apple, reject ing the pulp. This facilitates1 the flow of saliva and affords, almost in stant -relief. -- . (The singer should -, avoid ; speaking much On the day he sings. Rest and serenity give - him stamina and endur ance; and the courage 'to face -the Spirit -in Front his imaginary enemy, the Public. This is the ghost whicn even the most stout hearted occasion ally conjure up, whose fearful line aments affright him, and- whose myriad eyes burn themselves into nis auakine- soul. - - - However, familiarity usually breeds --self-possession. WHAT IS SUCCESS? The singer is often "asked, " "What is your criterion of success?" ' !t is con ceded tnat wnen an anist can com mand the applause or tne galleries, hia success is assured. one great- or clever enough to capture and hold the interested attention of those crit ics in the cheaper seats, is practically certain of securing the approbation or 1 hp riArouet and boxes. Many different opinions- exist , as to the methods of attaining this "con summation devoutlv to be wished. but Horace has given as the clue by indirection. . He tells us that, "Mens Sana in corpore sano," "a sound mind in a sound body". r arapnrase uhb, ''rrrr sana in corpore sano," "a sound vniw in a sound body." If a singer hasn't a sound body he had better make It souna oerore ne can hope to attain any degree of suc-r css- If he or sne nas a perieci pny ci.vo 1b nossessed of intelligence, per severance and temperament, and is willing to work like a. gallery slave lor weary jdio, .u.u r ' , , These' are the real and substantial "secrets." the secrets whereby the world famous virtuosi are- enabled to inspire millions. - DR.

Instead -of spreading out the sneet.to iron, toia it m half, then quarter and lay it on the ironing board as though - to iron. Now iron the rest of the clothes on top of the sheet, turn it occasionally before taking a new email article to iron so as to reach every part, then fold it and begin on another sheet. In this wav the sheets are ironed with very little trouble. An Investment Ijet us sell you a Diamond It is a good Investment. It can be turned into cash as readily as gilt edge se curities.
