ALWAYS EAT TO SLOW MUSIC.
But Mastication to sousa March Time
Is Ruinous to Digestion.


Does music aid digestion? is the lat
est question propounded for newspa-
paper discussion. The growing custom
of providing orchestral music in Lon
don restaurants, while it drives many
persons away seems to attract a ma
jority, although the number of those
preferring to dine in quiet is sufficient
~ large to encourage some restaurants
to advertise mo orchestra"
The point now under discussion is.
the peptic value Of music. and the
verdict of alimentarians seem to be
that it mainly depends upon the quail
ity and loudness of the music. Feeding
ought to be undertaken, they say, in
calm, deliberate manner, with the
greater part Of the mind alert to the
Importance of thoroughly masticating
and salivating the food. With an or
chestra playing fast and furious with
in a few feet of a table the necessary
effort of shouting to make oneself
heard or straining to hear a converse
ton upsets the quiet of the nervous,
system, which is imperative for good
digestion.
On the other hand, soft, dreamy mu-
sic, far enough away, does not inter
fere with conversation and ought to
have a soothing effect upon the nerves,
thereby promoting digestion Many
persons cannot eat when music is be-
ing played without keeping time to it
with their jaws.
This is we'll enough when the tempo
is slow, but no one can effect thor
ough mastication when the jaw is
working in wild rush to keep pace
with a Sousa march.-London corre-
spondent Of the New York Sun.

1901 Eaton square, S. W., Jan. Is,
49,"
The vicar lost no time in writing to
saw that he would, with pleasure, run
nm to London and see Mr.. de Bracey
as requested. He saw himself already
rector of Tootham.
When he arrived next afternoon at
1901 Eaton square, he asked the but
Ter whether Mr.. de Bracey was at
home.
Mrs. de Bracey, sir" the butler
corrected him. There is no Mr.. de
Bracey: my master has been dead
some years. Yes, sir, the mistress is
at home. She is expecting you,
think. Mr.. Priggleswade, is it not!
Will you walk in, please"
The vicar started. He turned pale.
In the pretty woman who stood con-
fronting him he recognized that de-
PRAYED person. Mrs. Robinson.
T-I-came to see Mrs. de Bracey,"
he stammered.
"And I am Mrs. de Bracey," she
smiled "You are surprised eh?-
because you have known me in an
other name. Well, the fact is this:
When l purchased the advowson of
Tootham with the knowledge that the
late rector contemplated resigning at
an early date the idea struck me that
| would go down and live there awhile,
in an assumed name, so that l might
have a good opportunity of studying
the local clergy, to see whether any
were deserving to be appointed to the
benefice, when it fell vacant.
She paused The vicar looked rath-
err blank. He wished now that he had
not been quite so hasty in his judg-
ment of Mrs. "Robinson's" character.
Further. he hoped with all his heart,
that she had not heard of that little
row he had had with his curate in
connection with the latter's visit to
her house
The lady went on:
my rather Bohemian way Of life
appears to have shocked all the good
people of TOotham immensely; and
won't deny that when I saw that
took a malicious pleasure in even go
ing out of my way to shock them
further. Still, I hardly think that
they-least of all you clergy, who are
supposed to be especially endowed
with the virtue of Christian charity
need have jumped to the conclusion
that l was a bad character"
'Oh, I never thought that" began
the vicar, in obsequious depreciation.
MOP" she calculated, with slight
lift of her shapely shoulders. Then
l wonder why you dismissed that nice
curate of yours for the iniquity Of
merely called to see me-"
ooh, that was a mistake-an unfort-
innate mistake"
"A very unfortunate mistake, Mr..
Priggleswade, as you are now to
learn. Had you behaved differently,
and as minister of the gospel ought,
I should probably have presented you
to the benefce But, as is II, l have
decided to present your late curate,
the Rev. Reginald Bisgood. "-London

when Depachmann Was Kissed.

Vladimir De Pachmann, who will make his farewell American tour this coming season, has played thousands of the master works for piano during This long career. but 1t is safe to say that not one of his many performances in public Is more strongly marked In his memory than the first time he es- sayed a Brahms composition in Leip- sic. That master had never appealed very strongly to De Pachmann, but in view of Leipsic's reputation as an ul- ltra- classical city in matters of music 1t was the home of Bach and later of Mendelssohn--the pianist made up an unusually exacting program in which the chief numbers were by Beethoven and his modern successor, Brahms.
 The Leipsic audience applauded the opening numbers lioerally and all went well until De Paehmann reached his first Brahms selection. As he was about Ito begin, long, loud sibilant hiss made itself heard from the front of the house and fioated up to the pianist on the platform. De Pachmann turned and again the hiss resounded, sharper than before. There was no mistaking its direction this time and the pianist

VIEWING TIE PURE MARBLE
.SCULPTORS HARD AT WORK
Going at "The Importance of Being Earnest" With
 a Ohisel.

When the sculptor begins work on a block of marble of perfect hue and grain his first act is to cut the stone into a rough outline. From this rough outline vague idea may be obtained as to what the finished product will be like but the results of this early work can at the best give but poor idea as to the beauty the individual parts of the work will have when completed The work done by the Yale actors on The Importance of Being Earnest" Is much like. the beginning of the Scuip. tor when he starts on his statue. The play is now beginning to show some traces of what it will be like when 1t is presented at the Hyperion on January IS, So far as may be judged from this rough outline that Is how visible, all in- dicattons point toward first class pro- duction. It remains to be seeYN how the play will look when the rough edges are taken off, but judging from the skill displayed thus far in the prep arations for this play it is safe to say that it will be the best the association has ever given.
 The men who are trying for parts oh the cast of this Prom. play have been working in perfect harmony with Nh Esmelton, who is coaching this pro- duction; fact that is most encourag- ing to all those who are interested in the endeavors of the Yale Dramatic association to make this production even more successful than was last years Prom. play.

 Fiske returned to the stage after an absence of several years, and "Hedda Gabler,' produced in 1904. Both plays achieved marked successes, and it is ut peuEeale uesqT apul ueq@ qsnolul this country recognition and popular ity. 'Rosmersholm," representing as 1t does the ripest efforts of Ibsen's genius, is the most important offering of this authors works that Mrs. Fisl1e has made.
