To PREVENT CONSUMPTION
Professor Abrams Delivers a Lecture
on This Matter.

"How to Prevent Consumption" was the sub
ject OF the second lecture OF the twelfth Lane
course delivered Friday evening at Cooper Medi-
cal College by Professor A. Abrams, the re-
Gently chosen lecturer and professor of path
ology of the insti ution
A hundred years ago the disease had been
considered contagious. and the Neapolitan
laws provided for the isolation OF patients. IL
bad remained for the brilliant DR.. Robert Koch
to discover the cause OF tuberculosis only twelve
years go. He had discovered that the maiady
resulted from bacii, and from that fact the
mIcrobe was now known as tuhercle bacillus

An Oriental's Opinion of
Our Music.
PURUSHOTAM RAO TELANG.
Brahmin Music the Cradle of Western
Art-A Comparison Between
the Two Schools.

You may not like my music, perhaps 1t
would strike you as being moEoton Gus, but
at least there Is nothing in il that could
offend your ears. Your music, on the
contrary-ah! l tell you l have heard
some of your great singers who sounded
like jackals bowling, and | have fled away
from their unnatural noise, saying to N.Y.
self that it would be better to sit alone in
the forest than to hear such horrible weep
ing sounds"
1t was the high caste Brahmin Purus-
..notam Rao Telang who gave this out
spoken opinion of how Western music
sounds in oriental ears to CALL reporter
yesterday. The Brahmin was not critlclZ-
ing in any carpiDg spirit, he was merely
expressing an opinion for which he had
been asked, with the frankness character
istic of his race.
There are many discordant notes in
your music, and the singing is not nat
ural." continued Mr.. Telang, speaking
eagerly, with expressive gestures, while
his great dark eyes glowed with the inter-
est which the mention of music seems to
inspire in him. while singing, a lady
lifts her upper lip aud depresses her lower
one, to show her teeth; she elevates her
shoulders painfully and shrieks as though
singing; it is horrible, horrible, to our
ears; our audiences would not stand it.
Then the low, deep notes that some Of
your singers produce are cruelty unnat-
uraI; they are like the growing of an
animal. Such SOUNDS are not Tor the
human throat"
ANY one interested in singing will see
Immediately that, although exaggerated
from one point of view, the Brahmln's
criticisms were not without some glimmer-
ing Of the truth. 1t was explained to him,
however, that though a large number Of
popular singers both in America and
Europe do breathe in lab0red manner.
thereby raising the shoulders, 1t is
ackn owledged 10 be a fault, and that as
tor the down in the cellar" production
of low tones affected by some misguided
contraltos the monstrosity was as painful
to occidental as to oriental critics. Ihe
Brahmin. however. had evidently seen ana
heard enough TO be convinced that The
critics were in the minority.
How does our Instrumental music
differ from yours?" was asked.
"Ah! that would mean giving you some
account OF our music" replied MIR. ie-
lang. "How can | do it in so few words,
when 1T IS the study Of a lifetime to know
and TO understand? But | will try. Do
you know that your scale was first dis
covered by leaened Brahmins thousands
and thousands of years ago?-this success
sion of notes." and the speaker softly
sang an octave OF the major diatonic scale,
ascending and descending.
THAT scale was discovered, as say, in
remote ages by the pundits or doctors, or
as ii is better to call them. the Risbis, or
eages, with whom originated all tne lore
Of the Eastern world. l ain proud to say
that some of those Rishis were ladies'.

had been inoculaied by drinking milk, which
should always be boiled.
The query how 10 prevent consumption
was answered TINS: Destroy the eXpectOra-
lions of persons afflicted with tuberculosis by
keeping spIt-cups; boil all milk; avoid
kissing; conservatives should avoid wearing
b ards; mothers with tuberculosis should not
nurse their child en-; coDsumpIives should not
marry , and all asplrants for mairlmony should
be carefully examined by a physician before
being permitted TO do SO; persons dying from
tuberculosis should be cremated persons who
inherit pTedisposilon 10 consumption should
have pure air day and night, and should eat
only the most nourishlng food; bathing in
cold water is frequently good. but not always;
the clothing worn next the skin should be SUI
fcienily warm o protect the body from sudden
changes OF temperature
Consumption, Professor Abrams asserted, Is
a preveDtable disease. and when all the pre-
cautions against 1t were observed would great

It Is Much Lighter Than Aluminium and
Is Besides This Transparent
A man who has been chopping wood
for number of years in Pine Nut dis
trict lately found a new metal, says a
San Francisco dispatch to the New
York Journal. His stone oven having
been burned out he took some clay
from large deposit he knew of near
by and, mixing it with little water,
made a back, built fire in his stove
and paid no more attention TO it until
next morning, when he noticed that
his stove-back was gone and in the
ashes he found "a white, clear metal
with scarcely any weight to it.
1t would not break, SO he put it on
an old anvil outside the cabin and hit
it with a heavy hammer. 1t would
draw out, but neither crack nor break.
He has since experimented with it in
various ways. The clay will melt like
lead, but the metal produced viii stand
heat like iron or steel and is very
flexible.
He beat out piece four inches thick,
six inches wide and eleven inches long.
The block is transparent and weighs
only nine ounces. He saws there is no
limit to the clay as he has seen the
same kind in several parts of this and
ether states He viii melt out q block
two feet square and have it at the Mid
winter fair fo5 people to see.
