SPEAKING VOICE IMPORTANT
When Its Correct Use Has Been
Learned the Development Of the
Singer Is Easier.

Few singers, students, or even
teachers of singing, pay enough at
tention to the speaking voice. The
teacher and his pupil are together sc
little-a brief half-hour or two each
week-and there are so many things
demanding attention that there seems
almost no time for consideration Of
the speaking voice. Yet consistency
demands that bad habit of voice use
in speech shall be corrected SO thai
the use OF the voice in conversation
shall not retard the perfection of thu

Incident That Caused Conan DOYLE to
Decide That Physicians Work
Was Too Hard.

An American lady asked Conan
Doyle one day why he had given up
the practice of medicine He said
the work was too hard, and to prove
1t he went on to tell of his first case:
My first case came to me in the
middle Of the night. 1t was January,
and cold rain was falling. The jim
gle OF the doorbell awoke me from q
sound sleep, and, shivering and yawn-
ing, put my head out of the window
and said, Who's there?"
Doctor said a voice, can you
come to Peter Smiths house at once?'
What's the trouble?' asked.
Smiths youngest girl has took a
dose OF laudanum in mistake for para
goric, and we're afraid she'll die
All right, I'll come, said l.

homeward trying as best l could to
stifle my modification and anger. But
suddenly the window was raised
again, and the same voice cried:
Doctor, say, doctor!'

Got Useful Information.

'sThere's no place like pawnshop
for picking up useful hints" said the
improvident man. Every time hap
pen into one CLEAN some item Of gen
eral information that almost reconciles
me to the necessity for being there
On my last visit saw another man
redeeming ostrich feathers. Our uncle
brought them out tightly sealed in .
glass JAR
What did you can them for? the
man asked.
SO they wouldn't SPOIL said the
pawnbpker. "A glass jar Is the safest
thing on earth to keep feathers In.
Moths and dust cannot get at them.
besides you can keep an eye on them
easily and any trouble that might have
been breeding when the feathers were
brought in can be discovered and
nipped In the bud.
THAT hint consider worth going tc
pawnshop for. The way things look
now nobody belonging to me win ever
have any ostrich piumes to take care
Of. but ii we ever do have any shall
know what to do with them"

WHAT WOMAN LIKES IN MAN
Pleasing Manners, Difference, cour.
tesy and Vigorous, Healthy and
WelI-Groomed Appearance.

A woman likes pleasing manners In
= man. She likes Difference and cour-
tesy and effectiveness in small
things. Manners often make more
of an appeal to her than sterling
worth. That's the reason foreigners
make such Roadway with American
women They never forget to be defer
entail and courteous, to say the little
things and to do the little things that
warm the cookies of the feminine
heart. This may be all wrong. Per-
haps she ought to appreciate the char
acter more than the veneer. But she
doesn't The average woman isn't
practical. She's. romantic. She likes
roses and bonbons. Many men give
her cabbage and beefsteak. Cabbage
and beefsteak are all right, but as
steady diet they are tiresome. She'll
take less cabbage and beefsteak II
thereby she may have some roses and
bonbons.
A woman likes man to look
aealthy and to be well groomed. She
likes a vigorous body. healthy skin
and q look that betokens a daily
acquaintance with the bath tub, not
merely because she likes beauty
though she does, but because these
things betoken good habits.

Horseshoes as English Toll.


The town of Oakham, in Yorkshire,
should If there is anything in the idea
that horseshoes bring luck, be high
ly favored place of residence, for it
possesses an historic collection of
horseshoes which adorns the walls of
the assize court in the castle.
The array has been formed practi-
cally as the result of custom prac-
ticed by the lord of the manor of ex-
acting toll in the shape of a horse
shoe from every peer of the realm
who visits the town. One of the first
to be given was presented by Queen
Elizabeth, and others include the gifts

Northwest Mounted Police expedition

days overdue from Fort MACPHERSON

vices and mail from whalers, trappers

INDIANS arriving here report that the
party left Fort Macpherson a week he

The trip usually takes about thirty
days.
Lost Trail on Peel.
Inc party first got of the trail along
the lower Peel, where they were met
by family of Indians. Esau, one OF
the number, guided them for five days
to Mountain valley, the entrance to
the wand river country, where he was
released. The party was then only
fourteen days from Dawson.
Esau later went hunting and then
came to Dawson, via the Hart river.

police on New Years day. Since then
the coolest weather of the winter pre-,
vailed, for almost month ranging
from 40 to 60 below. This should fur
nlsh no difficulty for experienced mush-
ers, but the Indians report that the
police dogs were thin and in poor con-
dltion for travel The same dogs had
been used from Herschel to Fort Mac
Pherson.
Four in the Party.
The party includes Sergeant Fitz-
gerald and Constables Carter, Turner
and Kinney. Two of them were over
the route two years ago. Some hopes
are entertained that the dogs played
out and the men made camp, or that
some member was injured, compelling
the party to return to Fort MacPher-
son, or that the party merely got lost
for while on coming out of some de-
tour.
However, there are grave fears that
the party is lost. The Indians report
there is one whaler at Herschel.
