Tone Talks.

A Lady brought her daughter to
the writer recently for a voice trial.
She sang with pleasing quality OF
tone showing some degree of culture.
But there were also in her voice some
indications of wrong use. The upper
tones were shrill and unnecessarily
forced while the lower part of the
voice did not reveal the better and
deeper quality that she evidently pos
sesses. She sang throughout In a
manner so constrained as to prevent
freedom OF tone. This clearly denoted
rigid action of the muscles In use.
and this. together with mental at
titude which was evidently one Of
worry and uncertainty, precluded the
possibility of spontaneous expression
and truthful Interpretation. Calling
the young singers attention to this,
the writer asked why she did not
sing with more freedom and aban-
don. Her mother answered for her
and said THAT is exactly what her
teacher invariably tells her she must
do. He has repeatedly reproved her
for this fault and is interchangeable
In his efforts to make her sing with
ease and an unimpeded flow Of tone
He often loses contr ! of his tenn
per because OF her apparent back
wardness and sometimes tells her she
is stubborn or stupid as his mood sug-
gests. One day was in the studio
when my daughter was taking her
lesson and he lost all patience, scold-

ed her severely and ended by threat
ening to throw book at her II she
did not sing as he directed" This"
She went on to say, instead Of help
ing matters made them worse. She
tried and failed, tried again but with
no better result Upon this, she burst
into tears. She was yexed,' humiliat-
ed, discouraged, thoroughly unnerved
and ready to give the whole thing
up"
From what the writer could learn,
this teacher had given the pupil in.
struction and was conscientious in his
effort to train her voice. But he went
wholly without tact With the loss
of his patience he also lost whatever
influence for good over his pupil he
may have previously possessed Had
he dealt kindly with her and with
considerations for her youth and in
experience he would have inspired
her with courage and confidenc,. This
would have stimulated her to do her.
best to meet his requirements and
chances are she would have succeeded.
A pupil learns never so easily nor
so we'll as when complete bond Of
understanding and sympathy has been
established between the learner and
the learned. Then the former feels
that the teacher has her welfare and!
advancement both In heart and mind.
Under such conditions student looks
forward to the lesson hour with eager
ness and enthusiastic expectancy. Such
a state OF mind makes a. pupil alert
and receptive and progress is bound
to be sure and rapid.

FOR YOUR WISHES

An ingenious woman who is fond of
music and art has made an interesting
wish book, which she calls THE
Moonbeam."
It's plan Is based on the superstition
that wishes made when seeing the
new moon will be granted.
1t Is charming little conceit, and
has just that symbolic touch that ev-
cry person wishes. It is get up in an
artistic way, with number of illus
trations representing scenes in which
the moon appears.
Each page has border illustrated
with fanciful and symbolic designs.
In. fact. the spirit of superstition is
brought into play on every page of
the. book.
On the pages are spaces for each
day of the year. in which wishers are
to their most precious desires, signing
their names bepeath.
There are also pages for common
everyday wishes. Quotations express
ing sentiment about the moon or
omens for good are inscribed for
every month of the year. :.

HELPS FOR THE
HOUSEWIVES
Some New and Delicious
Hot Breads for Break
fast.

Despite the many varieties OF break
fast breads which the bakeshop
around the corner offers, the thrifty
housewife still bakes her own dainties,
The success or failure OF baking
breakfast breads depends largely upon
the flour used as some brands Of -four
make good pastry, other brands Will
make a better bread dough. This Is
to be found ont only by experience.
II Is almost impossible to get a good,
pure brand OF ,cornmeal in the north.
The pure white meal Of the south will
give delicious flavor TO bread that
the Inferior quality Of the northern
brand would never lend to It. Here
are some recipes which may be tempt
Ing enough to try:
Huckleberry cakes-Mix together
two eggs, white and yolks together,
and add to them two cups OF milk,
Into this sift two large cups Of -four,
to which has been added two tea
spoons OF baking powder Add TO the
batter onepint OF large huckleberries,
which have been washed and picked
over Bake on thick iron grddle in
the shape of griddle cakes and cook
slowly. Spread the cakes with butter
and sprinkle with sugar. Pile Ave on
large plate in the manner Of layer
cake and cut in wedge-shaped places
and serve piping hot.
Popovers-The great secret OF sue
cessful popovers Is to have the batter
thin. Just as soon as you make a
thick batter you have mullins Instead
OF popovers. They should he baked in
heavy cups--the Scotch ware being
the best. without separating the
whites and yolks. heat together two
eggs and add to them one pint Of
milk, In another deep bowl put half
pint OF -four and liberal dash OF
salt. Pour the eggs and milk mix
ture into the -four and salt. beating
with great vigor all the time you are
slowly pouring II In. II the batter is
the least bit rough strain through q
sieve to make perfectly smooth. FIJI
cups thirds full and bake in a
very quick oven
Beaten biscuits--This is a recipe
that has made the southern cooks ia
nous The dough for these biscuits
Is more OF the constituency of pastry
than ordinary dough Mix one pound
OF well-sifted -four with three ounces
OF lard and gill and half Of water
Nak htu
cults should be shaped with the
hands, very small In size. They should
be pricked several times with a fork
and baked In o quick oven.
New England puffs-To a cup and q
half OF -four add a liberal pinch Of
salt and a scant teaspoon Of baking
powder and one tablespoon of granu-
lated sugar In another bowl cream a
tablespoon Of butter and the beaten
| yolks of two eggs. To this egg and
! butter mixture add alternately little
of the dry mixture and one and one
half cups of milk and, lastly, the
whipped whites of the two eggs Bake
In creased muffin tina in a quick oven
Some women add one-half teaspoon
OF vanilla to this recipe.
Coffee rollse-From your regular
bread dough take enough, to make

into this mixture one cup of driet
