THE FOx-TERRIER.

1t II One of the Most Useful as Wen n
Most Popular of Dogs.
Of all small dogs the fox-terrier is
the most engaging, and for many years
has been the most fashionable compan-
ion for young men. He was originally
kept as an addition to every pack of
fox-hounds, and was used to worry the
fox out of hole when in the chase
REWARD had gone to ground. OF re-
cent years, however, the fox-hound has
developed SO much speed that the little
terrier can not keep up in the chase.
For awhile huntsman used to carry
fox-terrier on horseback to be used in
case the fox went to ground, but nova
days, in hunting countries, fox-ter-
riers are so numerous that one can al
ways be had for the huntsman's use in
any neighborhood. The fox-terrier is
the most gentlemanlike of all dogs,
and his clearly habits make him well
conc wherever he is known. He is
also as courageous as possible. The
writer once saw at the Central Park
menagerie a small fox-terrier chained
in an elephants cage. The two were
evidently good friends ordinarily, but
something was wrong the day the
writer saw them. The terrier was ly-
ing in his corner evidently in the sulks.
The elephant. with comical twinkle of
his, eyes, would pick up straws with
his trunk and drop them on the.
dog: The terrier for awhile shook
these off, and merely growled.
Then, his patience worn out,
he jumped out and dash
ed at the elephant with savage anger.
He went as far as his chain would let
him. The huge elephant backed as far
as he could into a corner, and seemed
to be trying to make himself as small
as possible. But there was a twinkle
in his eyes, and there seemed to be q
smile ea his face. The fox-terrier tug
ged at his chain, and acted as though
he would eat that elephant up if he
could get at him. It was most COM

ABOUT THE EXTRA SESSION.

Whether the president has become
certain of a support sufficient to repeal
the act or not, he has done his duty in

with it, where it belongs, the respon-

The calling of an extra session of
congress on the 7th of August next
shows that President Cleveland is keen
ly alive to the financial troubles that
legislation has precipitated
upon the country, and that he proposes
to do his part in undoing the effect of
vicious legislation.-Tole Bee.
The fact that the administration has
concluded to call the session month
in advance of the date at first unofficial
ly designated will of itself have bene-
fetal effect upon the country, for it in
dictates that there is now at Washing

The effect of the call for the ex-
ira session cannot be otherwise than
good. Full confidence, of course, will
not return until the odious act shall
have been repealed, but the nearer
probability of that repeal which the
call warrants will do much
to arrest decentralization and to restore
n more cheerful feeling.
1t is hardly too much to say that
there is no reason to suppose that any

had great confidence in its results In

TO AMATEUR MUSICIANS.

Some Hints Which, II Followed. VIII BE
Found Quite Advantageous.
The following is series of hints to
young singers and would-be singers.
which have been received from one OF
Boston's well-known musicians:
1. Do start under the right instruc-
ton. It is far better to begin right in
middle life than wrong in youth.
2. Do study everything carefully, for
whats worth doing at all is worth do
ing WELL"
5. Do cultivate refinement in all
things. The tastes, inclinations and
tendencies of the singer, whether re-
fined or course, are unavoidably made
manifest in the Interpretation OF the
music she sings.
4. Do keep up with the events OF the
world in general way. but while
studying music live in an atmosphere
of music. Concentration is the secret
of many a singers success.
5. Do sing everything as the author
wrote it, for one should be as truthful
in music as in history.
6. Do plan your mode of living and
hours for eating, sleeping and exer-
cising according to the manner in
which they affect your singing.
{. Do throw your whole soul into
your singing. Live in the song while
you sing it. The sympathy and inter-
est of an audience is most frequently
gained by the sincere, soulful and
truthful rendering of selection.
s. Do cultivate animation, warmth
of spirit and coloring in rendering
your songs.
9. Do train yourself to be cool
headed and collected when singing.
10. Do sing without notes when pos
sible. You can produce better dra-
matte effects and hold your audience
better by so doing.
1. Don't try to study music, art and
science all at the same time. Select
one and do that we'll.
2. Don't think of making music your
profession. unless You have a more
than ordinary talent for it. The mu-
steal profession is always crowded with
performers, excepting at the very top,
where there is always plenty of room.
3. Don't think of making music your
profession unless you have plenty of
money to give yourself the best posi-.
BILE musical education.
4. Don't think that training in execu-
ton and technique of the voice only is
sufficient. The professional singer
should be a perfect reader and well
schooled in counterpart and harmony.
5. Don't think the life of a successful
singer is easy. The more successful the
singer the more she becomes slave to
her profession.
Don't make practice of humming.
It tires the voice.
:. Don't practice long at time, espe
cially if you are just beginning. It is
much better to practice little and often.
8. Don't eat just before singing. A
hearty meal several hours before and
light, stimulating refreshment just be-
fore you sing is much better.
9. Don't drink wine for a stimulant.
It is not only drying to the throat, but
is too strong stimulant. A person
needs to be especially self-composed
when singing.
10. Don't indulge in mannerisms and
catchy originalities in rendering your
selections. A natural manner and sim
cere singing are much more pleasing
