All you can do is to make yourself

win him bysending him love letters
for which he does not ask. On the
contrary, if you continue to do so,
he will be likely to regard you as an
infatuated and troublesome old
maid, in desperate straits to get
married. The girls who succeed in
obtaining proposals for marriage
are usually the ones who are sur
prised when they come; or at least
they pretend to be surprised.

bination of the two nitrogenized
and carbonaceous food is highly
necessary. Food is divided into
two classes, and it is necessary for
the singer to study carefully their
nature. First, we have that which
ls easily assimilated with the blood,
viz: flesh, the white of eggs, fari-
naceous articles, and milk. The
second is composed of substances
which contain a large proportion of
carbon, such as the fat of meats,
gum, sugar and claret wine. I'm
pure wine will surely destroy the
voice, The diet should consist of
both nitrogenized and non-nitro-
genized aliment in due proportions.
Though oily food contributes little,
if any, to the organization Of the
solid tissues Of the body, it is in
dispensable for imparting heat.
The most necessary thing essen
tial to a good singer is health. Al
bani, Grisi, Mario, Badiali, Brig
noli, Amadio, Sims Reeves, Morelli,
Paropa Rosa, Beneventano, Patti,
Titiens, Nilsson and Mile Gerster
were and are types of good health
and good spirits.
The artist-singer must be regular
in his habits, prudent as to health,
and must live on substantial food.
He must practice moderation in all
things, but not total abstinence.
The singer uses triple the amount
Of caloric of any other person, and
this must, therefore, be adequately
replaced by proper sustenance. II
this is not done the loss of the voice
will follow and possibly pythisis.
The singer will, therefore, find real
nourishment in the flesh of animals
rather than in vegetables. From
the second-class of articles of food
he will secure corbonic acid and
hydrogen. Fast walking, loud
laughing, loud and long reading,
skating and dancing, are all in
furious to the voice. Exposure to
damp air after singing is hurtful.
If compelled to do this a small
glass of water, with a little sugar
and a little claret, will be an excel
lent preventive. s.4

set off in a postchaise from her
fathers house across the country.
In this manner they arrived at
Stamford, and passed through the
town without stopping till they
came TO the entrance of Burleigh
Park, which is on the outside of it.
The gates flew open and the ehaise
drove down the long avenue Of
trees that led up to the front of
this fine old mansion. AS they
drew near to it and she seemed sur
prised at where they were going,
her husband said: :
"Well, my dear, this is Burleigh
House; it is the house promised to
bring you to; and you are the
Countess of Exeterl"
1t is said that the shock of this
