Saves Children'S Lives.
THoMPsoN'S BARosMA.

Have you family? Do you realize
that the annoying kidney trouble OF
your young children, of your baby,
evidenced by irregular and involuntary
emissions, will lead in time to fatal
results If not remedied? Thousands OF
children. of young men and women, die
every year because of the neglect VI
parents to give the proper care in this
respect in their early years. Generally
this is due TO non-realization OF the
meaning of the symptoms, often to
lack of knowledge of the proper RENE
dies. Even your physician, man OF
science that he is, may be led astray by
the varying symptoms of liver and kid
ney disorders. If your little one gives
any evidence Of a weakness OF the kid
neys, of inaction of the liver, soiling
the linen or acting sluggishly, get
Thompson's Barosma for it. The rem
edy is unfailing. 1t is absolutely harm
less, composed of pure fteet1jble in
gradients, and prescribed "a yer the
world by medical practitioners OF the
highest skill and reputation. Mrs.
Fred Lobelenz, of Titusville, Pa. writes
that her little son, four Years Old after
being given three bottles Of Thopp-
sons Barosma, was permanently cured
of bed-wetting, an annoying trouble
since babyhood. Mrs. N. F. Leslie, OF
OIL City, Pa, says her five year old
daughter, after several months OF IN
effective treatment by physicians for
bladder trouble, and being in dangerous
condition, was completely cured by SIX
bottles of Thompsons Barosma or Kid
new and Liver Cure. Ask your druggist
for II. 5Oc and 81 90 bottle.

The borrowed Dnya.

According to Scottish fireside
rhyme, alluded to by Sir Thomas
Brown In his vulgar Errors" three
days were borrowed by March from
April, with a view to the destruction
of some sheep, but the popular fiction
of the borrowed days is really Of older
date.
In the Complaint of Scotland"
printed in 1913, we find: There eftir
/ entrit in ane creme forest, to con-
tempill the tender yong frutes, becaus
the borial blastis of the three borouing
dais of Marche he'd chaissit fragrant
flureise of evyrie frut-tree far athourt
the fieldis."
The origin and meaning Of the ex-
preston are obscure. 1t may probably
be founded upon that relapse into win
try weather which is often noticed at
the close of March and which seems
to snatch few days from the promise
of opening spring. A similar fancy
has prevailed in the highlands of Scot
land in connection with the first two
months of the year.-London Answers.

VOCAL CULTURE.
Hints For tho Cure Of Thin and
Throaty Voices : speaking
voicec

The question OF tue Importance OF
voice prOu~cuVn ,egy o.tvL arises tor
the singer, lecturer, aclcr. preacher
VI in TIC ordinary use ol the speaking
voice in private lIIl, and It's serious
no aect IN the cultivation of the place.
m,..l OF tie voice.
In America education in this res.
pect is seriously neg octcd from child
hood. and in European countries it is
a uranca most emphasized.
In the proper study of a foreign Ian
guago the necessity of pure diction is
forced upon you, especially in France.
This is acquired not by following
O grammar with your eyes, but by
carefully acquainting your ears to the
sound of other voices and your own.
The ears have to be opened to the
sound of ones own voice. E
Why should Americans allow 1t to
be generally considered that their
voices are thin and throaty? We have
Us beautiful vowel sounds as any
other language.
They neglect the pure diction OF
their own English, and consequent
placement of the voice.
Excuses are not allowed to-day for
harsh or throaty speaking yoices-it
is certainly neglected e4HS4kfon..
A singer or speaker viii ke'admired
for the natural beauty &Stbe quality
of his voice and perfect epunciation,
but he alone knows the difficulties
he has overcome.
Sound is composed of irregular and
regular vibrations, noise and music,
and for this quality, freedom and res
onance are needed. Sir Morell Mac
kenzie says: Without artistic enun-
citation sound loses all its greatest
charms" Singing is only higher
order of speech; words are the spirit
and music the drapery.
It is important, though, that In
speaking a musical note shall not be
recognized to avoid making 1t sing
song, not to speak in monotones, OF
course, but with the natural variety OF
infections for expression with fiex-
ibility and freedom for sound.
The close relation in speech and
song when approaching the singing
voice under the same methods OF
placement gives it sympathy in quail
ty and character. whether the voice
Is naturally pitched high or low.
To alter this particular quality
would be as ridiculous as to change
a contralto singer into a soprano OF
vice versa.
Many good singing voices are i'm
paired by the bad use of the speaking
voice, and care in childhood cannot
be too strongly emphasized.-St Louie
Republic.

A Jealous Ape.

Sir Harry Johnston, the English ex-
plorer, once Travelled on ship with a
pet ape. 1t was great favorite with
all the passengers until there came
aboard at Madeira n lady with an In"
fant. The latter received n good deal
of attention end the ape in conse-
quence became. neglected and jealous.
Sir Harry Johnstoo followed it on deck
one day just in time to prevent a trag-
edy. The child had been left unguard-
ed for ~ moment in fcs cradle, The ape
had n for it, pulled 1t from the
cradle and was In the act of throwing

upon it, Says q, 1T would

ed to strong iron cage for the rest of
that voyage.

srMnarifsh" River.

Maxwell Sommerville of the Univer-
sity Of Pennsylvania spent nearly for
ty years Of his life In oriental travel
and study.
Professor Sommerville used some
times to narrate the strange error that
was once made by n French explorer
he had known. This explorer had made
n journey to Kairwan and had drawn a
map Of the country he passed through.
The singular thing about this map was
that the name "Maarifsh" appeared so
many times on 1t. A river would be
the Maarifsh river; mountain would
be Mount Maarifsh; village, lake,
valley, each would be called Maar-
fish.
When Professor Sommerville saw
this map he laughed.
Don't you know" he said to the
traveller, what maarifsh' means in
ArablcT
mo" said the other. what does 1t

A LnnnneSe Gardener.

Sir Edwin Arnold had great many
stories in illustration of Japanese traits.
"The japanese gardeners" he once
said, "have carried their art further
than we have carried ours. A land
scape gardener in Japan is esteemed
highly. He Is looked on quite as we
look on poet or painter. And these
japanese gardeners are truly remark
able men. l was riding with one Of
them near Kioto on an August after
noon, and we came to a steep hillside.

"The gardener smiled humorously.
