PENALTIES OF PUBLIC SINGERS.
A fact little known to the public regarding
the singing voice is, that almost all yocalists'
throats arc in chronic state Of Inflammation, a,
or an approsGa to It, which would be consid-
cred downright soreness by anybody else. A
friend of mine, who is . prima donna, goes
through life with pair Of red and swollen
tonsils which would serve me very nicely for a
quinzy. Familiarity in such cases breeds con-
tempt, as the proverb teaches, for the abnor-
mally enlarged tonsils create no disturbance in
my friends mind. She remarks that physi-
clan who was unacquainted with artists
throats would surely send her to bed If he got
a peep at hers. But it is seldom necessary to
caution the possessor of q singing voice to vigi-
lance In the care of 1t; 1t is too precious pos
session to be lightly guarded.
A voice, which in the money sense is equiva-
lent t2srQY Of brown-stone fronts in Fifth
Avenue, 6T ! k9QK pot how many 81 wells in

the singing voice Is short-iived, If 1t be used
The exactions Of modern operas are 90 destruc.
tive in their effects, that It is calculated the
Average duration in freshness of q soprano
- Is eight years, and of q tenor voice only
six. The baritone Is somewhat harder, while
the bass voice will generally last lifetime
though there are well-known instances of once
celebrated bassos who still walk the earth In
all their manly physical vigor, but sing nc
more.-Olivs Logan, in The GalGry for June.
