MUSIC CURE.
HE LATEST FAD OF GOTHAM'S
SOCIETY WOMEN.
Curing Ailments by Certain Strains
of Sound-Some Chat About
New Gowns-Male School
of Cooking.
Especial New York Letter.)


~ YEW YORK has a new fad.
N This time it is the Music
v Cure. Ever since the En-
press of Austria was treated
for her neuralgia ailments of long
standing and cured by certain strains
of sound, repeated at frequent inter-
walls, the music cure has grown stead
lily in favor. Now it is to be tried
here.
Society women turned out in large
numbers the other day to hear an
eminent European physician lecture
on remedies for nervous diseases. The
idea is to find the sympathetic chord
on an instrument that strikes in
harmony with ones nerves. Have this
played to you over and over very soft
Iy; it will finally lull you to sleep,
and sleep means cure for nervous dis
orders.
Emotional temperaments will, in all
probability, turn to the soft contralto-
like voice of the cello; and over
strung women who try to crowd the
duties of two days into one, will un-
kloubtedly choose the oboe, an instru-
nent like mellow human voice. A
Eery pretty idea indeed. Music hath
charms to soothe the savage breast,
why not a charm also to soothe nerves? ?
Miss Olga Nethersole, the greatest
6emotional actress of the day, Is par
ticularly sensitive to sounds, and
music plays on her nerves heat-waves
as on so many delicate filaments. Re.
Gently I met her, after performance
of "Camille;" her first words were,
'sHave you come to see poor dead
woman?" (She dies in the last act).

day. Her personal magnetism and
power to work on ones emotion is
wonderful. She is indeed a woman OF
temperament.

ner Alice Carle as Tappeta likewise
earned additional laurels musically and
