Young people who are learning th

a device has just been invented which
1b likely to prove of much servfee tc
Ihem. It Is in the form of a supporf
tor tho arm, and if is asserted that bj
Its means the instrument can he al-r
ways held in an absolutely correct po
sition. The Inventor is a distinguished vio

I i n 1st and the device is indorsed by
Dr Iiboi'ilo. a Paris physician, who
thinks so highly of it that lie spoko
in its l'aor a few clays ago befoie thei
French Academy of Medicine The sup
port consists of a senii-eirele which
enfolels the lower part of arm a little
aboe the elbow, and which is con
nected with a belt that can be length
ened or .shortened according to the slzo
of tho arm Its main usefulness lies
in Ihe fact that it prevents muscular
fatigue, keopH tho shoulder in a prop
er position and finally gives the arm
that power ovei the instrument which
it must hae in oicier to produce tho
best effects.
Dr. Laborele has thoroughly tested
It, and he maintains that young vio
