Zine sinx.ons ronsue Of chlr..

Mr.. Elson, writing of Chinese vocal
music in The Musical Record, says
that the voice in China is trained to
much fexibility by the exigencies Of
the language. The Chinese is In one
sense the most musical of languages,
as a word acquires half a dozen differ
ent Specifications, according to the
pitch of voice or infection with which
1t Is pronounced.
A spoken word in the Chinese Ian
guage has different meaning. accord
ing to the infection with which it is
pronounced. The number of words is
small, the ideas that may be conveyed
by them are many. Thus foreigners
are led into endless complications and
Misunderstanding. For example, the
word tchu, pronounced clearly with the
vowel of medium length, means mas
ter" but by extending the vowel a
trifie it signifies hog" 1t also means
column and Cookery"
The syllable ''po" has IL different
meanings glass" boil" Captive"
prepare" etc, each of which must be
pronounced with different pitch and
infection
Among. the original words are some
which decidedly are taken from ma
ture, such as ''tchung" (belD and "miau"
(ca0, but these are very few.
Some authors have endeavored to
show from these facts that the Chinese
is In all respects musical language,
but this can hardly be conceded, for
the infections spoken of are so slight
as to escape the European ear, which
surely would not be the case IL they
were really musical notes.

Mr.. Lambert had been keeper of the

despite his physical immensely, was a
very intelligent and active person. A
Kentish innkeeper named Palmer,
weighing only $50 pounds, visited Mr..
Lambert and appears to have been
deeply mortified at his own infcriority,
for on returning home he was sudden
ly taken III and died. Mr.. Lambert
weighed 739 pounds Just before his
death.

Heartburn.

When the quantity of food taken is
too large or the quality too rich, heart
burn is likely to follow, and especially
so if the digestion has been weakened
by constipation. Eat slowly and not
too freely of easily digested food. Mas
ticate the food thoroughly. Let six
hours elapse between meals and when
you feel a fullness and weight in the
region of the stomach after eating,
indicating that you have eaten too
much, take one of Chamberlain's Stom-
ach and Liver Tablets and the heart
burn may be avoided. For sale by
