MUSIC
CURE FAD

Boston. Mass. June s.-Society people
OF Boston have discovered that music
hath charms to sooth the savage ache
and the ''music cure" fad has taken a
firm hold in the Back Bay. It's disciples
are growing in numbers rapidly and all
assert that there is a subtitle. mysterious
quality in music that will cure many
human Ills, particularly thoe OF nervous
origin.
Different ailments require different
kinds OF music. Just as a physician gives
different medicines for different diseases,
and so the music cure has come 20 be a
sort of science. The fad was imported
from Europe In Vienna it's followers
have gone 80 far as 70 establish a sani-
tarium where music is the chief means
employed TO effect cures OF nervous dis
orders Thus far In Bostoa the treatment
has been confined to the homes OF pa
uents.
Mrs. Mary A. Lvermore recently asked
Miss Christine Brown 10 play in the
wards OF the Woman's hospital and the
results we're so pronounced that Miss
Brown has become an enthusiast or the
subject and has repeated her experiments
with marked success She declares that
patient suffering great physical pain
may be put at ease and even induced 10
sleep cy hearing theme suited to his
or her temperament A person who Is
physically IN needs strong. invigorating
music. while a person mentally I'll must
hear music that is softer and sioweS
The advocates OF the cure use many
familiar Illustrations to defend the fad
among them the fact that mothers In all
lands have always sung 20 their babies
and can soothe them ost peevish little
ones.
The choice OF instruments u wide. No
rules have yet been formed on this point
but the violin is thought TO be little
more successful than others. A piano
however is almost equally considered.
Boston physicians say there are on rec
ord instances OF insanity being cured by
music.
