Voice Control.

To recent issue of the British
Medical Journal Maj. r. F. E. Austin,
of Imtarfa, Malta, contributed a pa
per on commonly over looked factors
in vocal mechanism, in which he as
serts that the universal idea that all
naturally possess either good, bad
or Indifferent voices is wrong and
contends that nature is directly re-
sponsible for one and only one of
these conditions, and that the others
must be attributed to mans uncon-
scious departure from natures laws.
It will be news to many that by far
the greater number do not possess
full control of the abductor muscles
of the cords and are therefore unable
to place and keep the cords in the
most appropriate position quickly.
The author asserts that it is surpris-
ing what a number of professional
voice users. as we'll as amateurs,
fail in this respect. According to
his thinking, the majority of voices
are lost not from overwork but as
result of improper emission. t.ft
Maj. Austin contends that in order
to obtain quickly the thorough. con-
troll of any muscles Or set of muscles
they should be developed by brisk
movements, which fully contract them.
In the case of the abductor muscles of
the cords this can only be done by us
ing the voice in a most inartistic al
though physiological manner. That
is to say, words should be sung Or
spoken quickly in acute penetrating
tones 'pat-a-wat-quack" being given
as an excellent phrase for the pur-
pose.) The voice should be extended
up and down, note by note, in this
manner until the limits of the compass
are reached. Classification into
soprano, baritone, etc., should not be
attempted before this has been done.

New Phone Device.

Edward McClintock, of St. Paul, is
the inventor of device which he has
sold to a company organized to han
die it, by which it is possible to tele-
phone between moving trains, steam
or electric. The object, of course, is
to prevent collisions. A severe series
of tests was recently made of the in
vention at Marion, Ind, during a
storm that had prevailed for ten
hours, flooding the tracks and caus-
ing much other damage. Telephone
messages were sent from moving
train to station over five miles
away, and also messages between
moving trains. A peculiar feature OF
the device is that it gives automatic
warning of open switches.

For Fishing Trips.

Almost every man you meet on the
street has fondness for fishing and
is planning on little outing. Two
or three things are necessary to make
this trip success; first. the weather
must be good; second, the friends
must be congenial; third, the lunches
must be hearty and appetizing; fourth,
if possible there should be some fish
to catch. But the most important of
all is the lunch Of which golden grain
belt beer is absolutely necessary.
You get unusually thirsty on trout
stream or lake and water won't quench
the thirst; this delicious beer is just
the thing. Try it. Order of your

stead were with Mr.. Sehlin and stayed
at the same hotel. It was purely an.
accident and. there is suspicion here
that the light was faulty and this may
account for the reason some people
were so anxious to make it appear a.
case of suicide. Andrew Sehlin was
the first settler in the town of East
Side, having come here about twenty
years ago when there was no road or
teams here and saw many hardships..
He was postmaster here for many
years and was an earnest Christian.
It was largely owing to his efforts
that we have the fine Swedish Baptist
church. He was a man respected by
all and has done much for the devel-
opment of our town; public-spirited.
atfectionate man who will be greatly
missed.

After all, the rich do not have mo.
nopoly Of the delights Of ocean travel.
At this season Of the year the steerages
Of the ocean palaces are comfortably
filed with the common people, and
they have as much fun out of the trip
as the swells in the cabin. A big liner
that sailed the other day was laden
with fruits and flowers, sent to cheer
the voyagers by friends who stayed at
home, and the boxes, baskets and other
packages found their way into the sec
ond cabin and steerage as often as to
the saloon: One little old woman go
ing home to Ireland seemed to be the
belle of the ship and was, almost hid
den under the bouquets that reached
her on the deck below.

Recently French inventor achieved
success with newfangled boat which
skins along the surface Of the water,
thus avoiding the resistance caused by
water in front Of the ordinary boat.
The trial boat has total length Of
twenty feet and a width Of ten feet.
1t has two inclined planes made Of
wood and a twelve horsepower motor.
When the boat is at rest the planes are
Immersed, and the weight of the boat
is supported by parallel floats united
by crosspieces. When the motor is
started the boat begins to move for
ward horizontally, but as soon as the
speed increases the inclined planes lift
the boat to the surface, whereupon~the
speed at once Increases because Of the
immense diminution of resistance, and
the boat begins to glide on a;layer of
air resting between the planes and the
water up to a speed Of fourteen, fifteen
or twenty five miles an hour.

More ssBlood and Iron,, Polic,

more Blood and IrOn0 Policy,
b The ruling elements Of the German
people-the manufacturing, financial
and commercial classes says United
States Consul General Guenther at
Frankfort, have become convinced
that the acquisition Of colonies is nee
essary for the maintenance of the 20
.sition of their country, politically and
economically. To this end sea power
is popular desire with the Germans,
and they will spare no efforts or cost
to obtain it. A strong declaration on
this subject by the chamber Of COM
merce Of Dortmund, the center of Ger
many's iron, steel and mining indur-
tries, is considered by Mr.. Guenther
as representative Of German public
opinion. In recent report this body
said in substance that the German
people cannot find living without in
dustrial employment, and the indus
tries which should feed them cannot
subsist without foreign markets for
their output; therefore foreign trade
and all which Is connected with it must
be procured"
The report continues with the state
ment that the German people have
founded colonies, laid. ocean cables,
built up merchant marine of 2,OOO,-
600 tonnage, and have an export trade
Of over $1,O0O,OOO,0O0, and asks, "What
can be more pertinent than to protect
our colonies, cables, ports, merchant
fleets and foreign trade against ravish-
ment by foreign powers and to prevent
competing nations from annoying us?"
This is plain language for business men
to use and as blunt in its way as Bis
marck's appeal to 'blood and iron" or
old Wilhelm's pet thesis that the way
to command the respect of nations is
to be always ready to enforce it with
bayonet and sword

Reform In Banking Laws.

At least three Of the pending propo-
sitions for changes in the national
banking laws will be urged upon the
attention Of the Fifty-ninth congress.
One Of these propositions is a radical
one and has been heard from before.
1t is to permit national banks to make
loans on real estate
An apparently wholesome amend
ment but one which would seem to be
unnecessary, is the prohibition of loans
by banks to their own active officers.
It is already the custom Of active bank
officers to 60 to other banks when they
want loans.
An amendment for increased care In
the inspection Of national banks by
the proper officials admits Of no argu-
ment in opposition. Failures among
national banks have in most instances
been facilitated, if not encouraged, by
inspections which did not inspect, but
CLOSED over unsound conditions. More
inspectors and more thorough per-
Torrance Of the duties of inspection
are urgent necessities in the present
rage of frenzied finance

Causes of Drowning Accidents.

Causes of Drowning Accidents.
One of the chief pleasures and bene-
fits Of swimming arises from the sense
Of liberty of movement, a sort of riot
GUS license in the water. Given skill
and strength person feels a mastery
over the elements. It is a drawback
to feel that there may be foe hidden
In the system which can bring this
superb power to grief, but such seems
to be the case more often than the
confirmed swimmer thinks. The dan
gers which beset swimmers are treated
in d recent number Of the Journal of
the American Medical Association,
which says that cramp-like seizures Of
the muscles are not the only causes Of
the sudden helplessness which often
overtakes the strongest men.
According to this authority, persons
who are suffering from middle ear dis
ease and who have had symptoms of
vertigo are more likely to be victims
Of accident than others Swimming is
an unusual draft upon certain organs
or the system, and If these are unduly
strained, especially If a sudden hem
orrhage takes place, even Of a very
small amount, the result may be seri-
Gus If the swimmer is beyond his depth.
The possibility Of such accidents is not
far off when buffeting the waves Per-
sons who are not in robust health and
whose delicate structures are not in
the best of condition to resist strain
are warned not to take risks, however
exhilarating the first plunge may be.

for the past two years, and has not

phatic statement can be made, but the
