It lias been stated by a leading sing ing teacher thut we all would have a good voice If it were cultivated, but 'still some voices would be better than others. There is a reason w’hy we do not all have really line voices. The “sound box,” as it were, of our body Is the larynx, or as most people call it, the “Adam’s Apple.” Across this stretch our two vocal chords, like the strings of a violin, thick for u bass, thin for a tenor, and so on. The “bow” that strikes these chords Is, of course, our own breath, and the different notes are produced by the moving of certain muscles at the base of the larynx. Just as the tone of a violin depends largely upon the body of the instru ment, so even perfect vocal chords are of little use unless our body contains a sufficient space, properly laced, for their tone to echo In; resonating cavi ties, w'e call them. We therefore need for the best voice a perfect sound box and perfect chords, plus fully devel oped “resonating cavities,” and good muscles to work the larynx. Added to this, our mouth and tongue must be placed In precisely the best position for our particular notes. Per fect health is needed for the breath that is our “bow,” a perfect ear to dis tinguish the slightest variation of tone, and finally a long and expensive train ing to enable us to work every part of our sound-machine to the best advan tage. Given all these factors, we have the perfect singer. Short in any one of them, we have a less perfect singer! —Exchange. REVEAL LIFE OF PAST AGES Relics Gathered In Collection in Pales tine Museum Are of Interest to All Civilization. During the two years that have elapsed since the department of an tiquities w'as founded at the instance of the high commissioner, 7,223 ob jects have been catalogued, of which a selection has been displayed, with due regard to date and provenance, and the Palestine museum in Jerusa lem Is nowr open daily to the public. The present accommodation Is not al together suitable, nor Is it convenient for visitors; but the beginning has been made. The total value of antiquities ex ported under license during this pe riod amounts only to a few thousand dollars, says a Palestine letter to the New- York Morning Telegrnph. As the national collection becomes more complete, the proportion of antiqui ties relensed for export to foreign mu seums will automatically increase, fn the province of the inspectors 1,4P>7 historical sites and monuments have been formally registered, and meas ures have been taken to protect them, with the collaboration of the police and gendarmerie. I nbASUnb SbbKbKS GU SOUTH Brazil Is New Land of Promise That Beckons Those Who Woo the Fickle Goddess, Fortune. Treasure seekers are turning their eyes toward the old gold eoast again. This time they are not thinking of the sunken hulks of overloaded ships three centuries under the sea that might by some mad miracle of luck still be salvaged. Nor have they heard another series of maudlin whispers of a hoard of pirate gold just found by the crew of a rum runner hunting a hidden harbor. Yellow gold and flat slabs of feath ered emerald engraved by* Indians be fore the Spanish flag and the Catholic cross were carreld into the Americas do not interest them. It’s the repeated news of new dia mond fields that have been opened re cently between the mouth of the Mag dalena river and the headwaters of the Rio Grande of Brazil that Is filling the veins of those who seek sudden wealth with a fever to find a fortune In blue clay beds or along the banks of streams that rise somewhere inland In mountain ranges that border Jungles, the New York Sun states. Footloose adventurers everywhere are looking up ways and means of reaching u likely port along the gold const somewhere between Caracas and Cayenne, or of arriving In Brazil some where between Bahia and Sao Paulo. Revival of the Bicycle. There Is a marked revival of cycling In England, and the cheapest known form of transport, which has never really waned In popularity, Is finding additional support by reason-of recent utterances by famous medicos. These gentlemen declare that the pursuit of cycling is healthier than any other; that muscular effort and regular breathing, which are the double-har ness steeds of cycling, are more con ducive to health than the remedial physic of the medical profession.

GOVERNOR SMITH SLAPS WILLIAM JENNINGS BRYAN ON WRIST Governor A1 Smith, of N’ Yawk, is peeved at the criticisms directed at him by W. J.

Edna Fay Dailey, daughter of Mr, ami Mrs. John Dailey, of Dorsey, died at the Parker House Thursday, shortly before noon, after an unsuccessful fight of several weeks duration by local physicians to counteract the ef facts of a dose of poison taken, by mistake, on Tuesday, May 29. She was nineteen years, eleven months and twenty-six days of age. Miss Dailey was stopping at the residence of Mr, and Mrs. William Welsh where the sad nccident took place. She had been undergoing medical attention for some time previous and on the afternoon of May 29 purchased bi-chloride of mer cury tablets at a local drug store, which it is thought she later confused with her other medicines. Physicians immediately were summoned when the error was discovered and since had kept up an unceasing battle to save her. The funeral service will be held from the Methodist church Friday afternoon at 2 o’clock, the Rev. J. A. Hutchins officiating. r~ —> Auto Livery Make all trains Day or Night. Call 148 W. G. BEHA DR.

We go right down into the heart of the fabric and draw out the embedded “soil” and grit. This fine embedded “soil,” if not removed, gradually cuts and rots the texture of the material and shortens the life of the garment. With our kind of dry cleaning—requiring highly de veloped and expensive equipment—you’ll find it very practical to have your garments dry cleaned regularly— at least three op four times a year. They’ll look fresher and better, and besides, will give months of extra wear —repaying many times the small cost of the service.
