Photographs as Nurses.

There comes a report from
Nebraska that a woman has
purchased a photograph to
cheer her husband who is bed
fast. The woman happened to
call on a neighbor who had a
machine and she took one home.
The article goes on to relate as
follows:
"Knowing that her husband
was of an intensely religious
nature she bought a phono-
graph and a number of records
of sacred music. The expert
ment worked like a charm.
Christensen was delighted and
has been keeping the phono-
graph busy ever since. His
friends bring him a new record
occasionally, although there are
a number of good old tunes of
which he never tires. While
of course, he has no chance of
ultimate recovery, the music
keeps him cheerful and he keeps
the machine close at hand,
taking great pride in operating
it himself and at the same time
his wife is relieved Of the heavy
burden of care that rested upon
her"

guests, cooking was absolutely pro-
hibited in the rooms; but Puccini's
brother was an excellent amateur chef
and they found housekeeping in the
room more economical than the land
lords meals.
Puccini liked chickens above all
else, and whenever the exchequer con-
tanned enough they would purchase
fowl and. smuggle the feathered
prize to the little room. His brother
then executed the bird by decapita-
ton, while Giacomo played the piano
to drown the death squawks of the
expiring chicken.
1t was during one of these episodes
that Puccini composed a "Capriccio
Sinfonica" that delighted his instruct
ors and was given public perform
ance by Faccio. the noted conductor.
Later he composed lie Villi," which
was produced in 1884. From this
time his success was assured, but it
was not until he composed Madam
Butterfly" which Henry w. Savage's
company is presenting in the English
tongue. that Giacomo Puccini reached
the climacteric point of his career.

Henry w. Savage recently started a
newspaper called THE Butterfly" in
Butte. Although the life of the publ
cation was limited to a single issue, it
created big sensation in the western
mining city, sold on the streets fer ten
