How to Cure q Cold.

"The Art Of Conducting."

The real art of conducting resolves
itself into an act of will. You must
have this element in you. 1t is an
especial pedagogical talent, for YOU
have to eXphess your ideas to the men,
bers Of your orchestra in such way
that no doubt is left in their minds Of
what you want in either execution or
effect. There are teachers who, in a
few words, explain to their pupils the
essence of the thing; and the same
holds good in conducting an orchestra.
Abstract ideas do not carry out your
aim You must present your ideas in
a convincing, as we'll as persuasive,
manner; otherwise your men do not
believe your theories. You must tell
them the vital points, and that it must
be done thus and so, then the musician.

to do thing which he can do wa&S

Eating Dogs in Germany.

North American Indians eat dogs
because they love them so; also be-
cause they are convenient, and, more
over, an eaten dog never bites. But
in Germany the people eat dog be-
cause beef. mutton, and poultry are
very scarce and high.
During the year 1906 there were
slaughtered for food in the Kingdom
OF Saxony (Which constitutes one thir-
ty-sixth Of the area and contains about
one thirteenth Of the population Of the
Empire) 1892 horses and 1886 dogs.
This is an increase of 224 horses and
1873 dogs over the year 1905. In all
Germany. during the year 1906. there
were slaughtered for food $4,000
horses. This is an increase Of about
10000 over 1905. and Of about 1000
over 1904.
Complete figures are lacking in re-
gard to the slaughter of dogs for food
in the German Empire, but fragmen-
tary statistics indicate that the total
number was about 7000-probably
more, rather than less.
In the city Of Chemnitz alone sos
dogs were slaughtered in 1906, an in
crease of SS over 1905, and during the
same period 1870 horses, an increase
