The value of singing.

From the medical standpoint singing
is Il most important exercise both by
virtue OF its influence on the emotions,
OH the respiratory movements and on
the development of the lungs. Nothing
better shows the beneficial effect of
singing in developing the chest and
wardinG of the lung diseases than the
great pulmonary development and free
dom from pulmonary disease among
professional singers. Their general
health. moreover, is exceptionally good,
and this is probably in II large meas
ure attributable to the mere exercise
of the calling. 1t is especially useful
in defective chest development and in
chronic heart disease. Provided the
patient can sing with comfort there is
no condition in which singing is con-
traindicatcd unless it be n tendency TO
tuberculosis or aneursmal h9moptysis.
1t is scarcely necessary to say that the
singer should be so clad as to allow
absolute freedom of the chest move
mcnts, there should be no construction
of the neck or waist, the collar should
be low and ample and the stays, If
worn, ample and loose.

Rocky Autograph Album.

Probably the oldest and most pre-
cious autograph album that has ever
existed lies in an almost unknown cor
ner of western New Mexico.
More than two centuries before our
Saxon forefathcrs penetrated the des-
Crt of the southwest the Spanish pi-
oncers. wandering through those lone
ly wilds. found rock so noble and so
remarkable, even in Il country of Won
dcrful stone monuments, that they
called it lei MORO" CThe Castle.
Wishing TO leave some record for flu
ture generations, they traced with the
points of their swords their names up
ON its rough surface. Those names
are there. with dates of their inscrip-
tion-in nearly every instance the early
part of the seventeenth century.
