1t will doubtless occasion surprise to
those who have heard Mr.. Roosevelt speak
to be told that he understands the secret
of voice culture almost as we'll as does
Mr.. Bryan, and that there is not the
slightest reason for the apprehensions of
many of his party leaders and personal
friends that he may be obliged to retire
Gov. Roosevelt's phsicfan, who objected
to having his name appear In an inter
view, gave a few CONGRATULATIONS in re-
gard to the care of threats, and more es-
pecially the threats of public speakers.
Among other things, he said that Mr..
Roosevelt has become so facile In the
manipulation of his vocal organs that
breakdown Is next to an impossibility,
even though the campaign were to con-
tinue three months longer than the pre-
scribeG time.
Did the governor not understand the
mysteries of the speaking voice 1t would
be absolutely impossible for him to sur
vive one week of campaign work. His
voice is naturally what is known among
| the profession as white voice. All We
| hement people, whether men or women
| will experience about the same difficulty
as Mr.. Roosevelt did when he first be-
! gan public speaking. In the enthusiasm
of the hour the delicate little cords OF
the throat are liable to be overworked

as TO the public singer. Mr.. Bryan re-
ligiously observes a rule gained by great
experience. Simply stated It ia this; Eat
as heartily as you wish Of beef, lamb or
muaton, roasted or broiled, never fried or
boiled; soft boiled or poachede eggs, milk
and toast, white meat Of fowl, potatoes
mashed with butter and milk, fish, ex-
cept lobster and crab, spinach, asparagus,
peas and string beans, rice and barley,
and for stimulants one cup of tea, one
cup of coffee or one cup of cocoa.
'All alcoholic beverages must be strict
ly tabooed, unless 1t be a small glass Of
claret after meals. Beer makes the voice
fat and champagne makes 1t sharp, and
IN the case of singers has been known to
raise the pitch to such a degree as to ruin
the rendering of selections for which the
singers were justly famed"
Both Mr.. Bryan and Mr., Roosevelt also
appreciate what deadly thing the sleep
ing car is to a voice, and when travel
ing their faces are invariably covered
with light silk handkerchief They also
sleep with their heads toward the engine,
thereby preventing a rush OF blood to the
head
If either of the candidates feels CT has
presentiment of any trouble before APP
pearing on the platform he resorts to the
singers remedy of simply grunting for
about I've minutes. The grunts really re-
semble the growing of a bear, and are
found to be most advantageous In clear
ing the vocal organs Of the throat and
chest.
BY this method they focus the voice in
the forward part of the face and give a
light exercise to the principal breath

An incident illustrative of this told by
an officer who was walking in the rear
OF Company DIS tents one afternoon in
one of the recent encampments of the
cadets at West Point He heard a voice
from the body of the encampment shout
ing in stentorian tones, I'm mad. I'm
mad. l know I'm mad." Wondering
what the trouble was, he walked short
distance further and looked between the
tents. There he saw in tent across thu

Another amusing incident Of this kind
occurred one quiet Sunday afternoon.
when most of the cadets were asleep in

of the camp parade were nearly deserted.

WEST POINT TRADITIONS
HANDED DOWN FROM ONE CLASS
TO ANOTHER AND CADETS RE-
sPECT THEM
SOME OF THE UNwRITTEN Law
Incidents Showing Some of the In
Rocent Forms of Dev1lment In
duI&ed in Toward the
So-CaIIed PIebes.

There is probably no place in the
United States where traditions and preee-
dents have so much weight as they have
at West Point. These traditions are care
fully preserved and handed down from
one class to another, and 1t is of the rar-
est occurrence for a cadet to do anything
that Is contrary to them. If he does vio-
late an important one, the cadet in ques-
ton is made to feel the displeasure of the
corps in an unmistakable manner, says
the New York Tribune.
Such a tradition Is that a ''plebe," as
members of the fourth class are called
is never regarded on an equal footing
with an upper class man until he has
completed his first year at the academy.
He is invariably addressed as Mr.. So-and-
So, or just plain Mister, and must always
address upper class men in the same for
NAL manner, and, In addition, he must
be prolific In his use of the word ''sir, -
affixing 1t to the end of every sentence.
If a plebe is asked by an upper class
man what his name Is, he must reply
Mr.. Brown, sir or whatever his name
may be, and If he falls to do so he is
certain to be told to put q sir on that
Mister" in a way that will usually cause
him to remember it. OF course plebe
soon learns this, and there is no longer
any trouble with him on that score
An amusing anecdote is told of a raw
country lad who reported at West Point
few years ago, concerning this use of
the word sir" When the new cadets re-
port at the academy they first visit the
adjutant's office, where they deposit their
credentials and give information concern
ing their parents or guardians and their
former careers. Next they visit the treas
urer's office and deposit what money they
may have with them, and then they go to
the barracks, where they report to the
cadet officer in charge of their instruc-
ton 1t Is here that they receive their
first taste of military discipline. Well,
this young man passed through the pre-
liminaries, finally reaching the barracks,
and, after several attempts to enter the
Office in a. military manner and to the
satisfaction Of the austere lieutenant in
charge he was asked by that functionary
what his name was
John Smith," answered the lad
Suppose You put a sir on thatP' cried
the cadet officer, forgetting for the mo-
ment in his assumed wrath the equally
heinous omission of the Mr.

plebe, and supposed he had obeyed to the

front Of the barracks. Instantly the
thought of the billiard table flashed
through the minds Of the two officers,
and they started quItely after the caGets.
On reaching the basement doorway Of the
sixth division the two cadets entered and
the officers, arriving q moment later saw
them climb over a pile of coal and enter
an open door, through which came sounds
OF laughter and conversation and the
clicking of balls, while the air was 1aoen
with fragrant tobacco smoke
The officers paused for moment and
held whispered consultation Finally.
deciding that they would tell the other
officers of their discovery and have all OF
them come down the following night and
enjoy the fun of a raid on the club, they

the officers at the post were informed Of
the discovery, and 1t was arranged that
the raid should occur at midnight. Ali
might have gone well, and the officers
might have had their little fun, had 1t not
been that there were three cadets the pre-
vtous night instead of two The third

the present campaign, If We are to take
specialists who have the care Of the
respective candidates voices
A New York throat specialist, who IS
professionally familiar with Mr.. Bryan's
voice declares it absolutely impossible for
him to suffer a giving out"
Mr.. Bryan Is too adept to have any
fear of his voice giving out said that
doctor There isn't one little trick or
art known to the orator for the protec-
ton of his voice that Mr.. Bryan is not
perfectly familiar with and which he does
not practice as occasion demands. He
realizes now the great secret of how to
save 20 his voice and to husband it's
strength.
Several years ago he did not do this,
but often after making a speech would
engage in conversation. He soon found
out, as every one else will find, that he
must not speak one word to anybody
when he has finished his speech, but must
retire as soon as possible If 1t is night,
or if daylight that he must take proper
nourishment and allow his voice a COM
plete rest for several hours at least
Amy one who is compelled to do a
great deal of talking, whether candidate,
public reader or school teacher, ought first
TO understand thoroughly the physiology
OF the throat and nose. The so-caIled
breaking down is simply and easily ex-
planned. The speakers mouth, as rule,
being open, and respiration taxing place
more through the mouth than through
the nose. Inflammation IS liable to take
place in the vicinity Of the tonsils and
their pillars, and then a little later Just
below the vocal cords, the resonance of
the voice depending upon the resonators-
namely, the mouth and the nose. These
giving way creates additional strain
upon the vocal bands or cords.
This general giving away causes what
Is styled node because Of the strain
Of keeping up the same tone. These
nodes are little red points on the vocal
cords, and appear first on their weakest
spots and where they are made to IN
crease by the rapid vibrations of the
cords against each other. After repeat
ing this process several times the blood
vessels in the cords become ruptured, and
a condition is brought about which It
takes months to recover from. In this
way once a person has acquired a node
he may be entirely unfit to carry out a
programme for an entire season without
frequent breakdowns.

QUESTION OF KNOWING HOW

of Proper Pre-

On the eve. of a presidential campaign
the possibility of the star speechmaker' $
voice giving out has always been, and is
Btill' the greatest bugaboo to the leaders
and constituents Of the rival parties
Were Mr.. Bryan's voice to fail him it
would be regarded by the Democrats as
calamity almost sure to augur defeat,
and should such misfortune befal Mr.
Roosevelt 1t would be regarded In his
party as little less ominous.
But neither of the speechmaking can
