A resident of Versailles, NJ. Guignet.
sends to Nature a vivid account of q
duel he saw between hedgehog and
a viper. The two, enemies knew very
well at first sight who was who, and
eyed each other as If they knew a
moments inattention would be fatal.
The viper was the first to get tired of
gazing, and 1t began to glide away.
Just then the hedgehog rushed for the
yiper's tail, and, having nailed it, fast
with It's teeth, it rolled itself up. The
hedgehog was very careful, however,
not to cut the tail off. The viper
curled back and delivered furious as
saults ON its aggressor, wrestling and
rolling with the curlsd up hedgehog all
over the place. At length the snake,
wounded in hundred places, died.
The hedgehog began its repast on the
tail Of its victim and was careful not
to cat the head.

Ha,x TO Learn to Sing.

Lung power and capacity may be
wonderfully increased and strengthen
ed by n constant repetition of the syl-
liable "ah" on the three or four notes
In the middle register of the voice
that is, the three or four notes which
one sings most naturally and with the
least effort. Let the pupil get one note
clear cut, round, full and musical; then
from that note as starting point let
him go up and down, gradually work
Ing ont the huskiness from the ada
cent notes and sounding them until
they become pure and resonant and
can be delivered without strain or eff
fort.
Let him work Systematically and
above all, avoid the pernicious trick of
learning "pieces" by rote or by ear.
His first effort should be to increase
the purity and range of his voice, and
to that end he should. as suggested
above, use the broad syllable "ah"
only for a time. and on no account
should he try to sing an air until he
can do SO Understandings, with full
knowledge of musical notation and
perfect command of his vocal re-
sources,

The votive pictures (yema) of Japa-
nese temples are an outgrowth of an
old custom. In ancient times departed
warriors. were honored by offerings of
sake and rice placed before their tab
let's and tombs. AS the idea gained
ground that their spirits lowered
around their graves besides food a GER
tain number of spotless white horses
were provided with which these spir-
itual worthless might take recreation.
So 1t became the custom in wealthy
Shinto. temples to keep one Of these
sacred. animals. There were many
shrines, that could not afford to buy q
white horse, so the next best thing was
to get,a picture of one; hence the name
yema picture horse from We "a pic
ture)' and una "a horse).
The use of the yema was first con-
fined to the Shinto religion, but the
Buddhists took kindly to the custom.
The word yema has long lost its prim-
tive meaning and has become a ge-
neric name for every picture hung up
in Shinto shrines or Buddhistic tenn
pies.

You wouldn't think that people

that we are asked to take back yards

Indeed, of ALI the commodities we

wants of our customers This is pretty
much their own fault, however, for In
stead of examining the old wick and
finding out just what they need before
they leave home they merely guess at

what size they want they say:

way bllndly. AS consequence | often
make mistakes, and the next day they
bring the wick back and want to ex-

precaution to learn what they want, we
accommodate them, even though the
returned wick does smell to heaven
