TONES TO SUPPLANT WORDS

Where are you going?" the upper
tone would be upon the you"
Miss Truslow states that the Amer.
leans as a rule speak with a closed
throat, which is not only very inhar.
monious, but is deadening to the voice
and causes a person of thirty to speak
like one of fifty.
The old Italian method Of singing
emphasized the Importance Of the
open throat. Other methods have
come and gone. but this has survived
as the true method Of bel canto."
All the words are formed on the lips
and as far to the front of the teeth as
possible. In this way a correct speak.
er can often be understood by the
movement Of his lips alone.
Nasal, throaty and harsh voices are
all caused by the tone being produced
in either the nose, throat or chest. A
child who is shown how to place each
tone correctly win always do so
through force of habit.
The children are reported as taking
readily to the new order Of things in
the schools and lectures have been
given on the subject before various
clubs in the city.

SAVING BY HONEST WEIGHT AM MEASURE.

IT F all that is promised by the passage OF a new ordinance relating
to weights and measures is fulfilled the Newark community
will save an aggregate of hundreds of thousands of dollars this
year simply by getting what IT pays for In weight ana measure.
The quality of what is bought cannot be regulated by the ordinance.
That comes within the operation of the pure food law. BY the new
ordinance dealers in weights and measures must submit their wares
to the city sealer to be officially sealed before they cal be offered
for sale. 1t is provided also that, with some exceptions, all articles
must be sold by the weight II the measure, while package goods
must be inscribed with the exact weight thereof. Increased power
is given to the inspectors and increased penalties for violation. As
an aid to the operation of the new regulations literature will be
issued by the department to be distributed throughout the com,
munity, instructing the people as to the character of the cheats
uractised upon them by INSCRIPTIONS dealers and giving advice
how to make their purchases. 1t is noteworthy that the department
will now have for the first time a complete set of standard weights
and measures. If systematic cheating by retail dealers can be
stopped more of the peoples earnings will go into the savings banks,
more of the needful will be provided for the family table and the
moral tone among the purveyors of the food and drink of the people
will be appreciably raised.

MAINE,s SELECTION or A SENATOR.

1H HE Democratic majority in the Maine Legislature has seiecteo
Ii the senator to succeed Senator Hale. At a regular caucus al
Augusta last night Charles F. Johnson, of Watervnle, re-
ceived the party nomination and he will be regularly elected on
January II. when the two houses meet to elect the senator. Inc
Maine Democrats have been ont of power in the state o many
wears: they now have the Governor and both houses OF the Legs-
lature. Maine went Democratic for precisely the same reason that
New Jersey went Democratic, namely, because the people were
tired of the party in power, Disguised with the results OF Kepuph-
car rnle. and wanted a change. 1t is not understood that the newly
elected Governor in Maine took to himself the credit for the party
victory in the State, and it is not reported that the Governorelect
endeavored in any way to dictate the choice of the United States
senator. In any event. that choice was made in party caucus last
night. and the caucus choice will prevail in the joint meeting. There
is harmony in the Maine Democracy, and the intent of Governor and
Legislature is to cooperate in reforming existing abuses in the
State government, in strengthening the party position and
making q record of a character to appeal to the voters in the next
election.

ing from the sort royalty gets IN
such %profusion New Years and on
other festive occasions. I meant /
hoped he got all he deserved on the
understanding that a king can de-
serve no wrong. Do you think he
got me?"
As tenderly as possible we ex-
planned to the party in question
that perhaps in his own English
way George had misinterpreted the
message and had missed it's kindly
intent. We advised our friend TO
try to forget the incident until he
was abroad again, when he could
easily explain 1t to the king and
they could have q good laugh over

STATE PATRONAGE IN LEGISLATION.

IT N the first wear of his term Governor Fort won general common
dalton by announcing his official appointments at the begin
ming Of the session. BY so doing he dspelled the idea that the
executive patronage would be used during the session to influence
legislation. If Governor Fort had stuck to that practise through
out he would have earned much credit, but in the second year of
his term the Governor adopted the contrary policy of reserving his
important appointments to near the close of the session. This in
consistency was most unfayorably commented upon. In his first
wear Governor Fort set an excellent precedent. If he had consist
emily maintained it in the next two years probably none of his
successors in office would care to violate the principle, and a long
existing and muchcriicised abuse in the executive office would
have abolished itself.

PIcTUREs NEWARK's MUsEUM SHOULD HAVE.

PTS HE sale of the private art collection of the late DR.. Leslie
ID Ward, which begins in Mendelssohn Hall, New York,
next week Friday, affords opportunity for our artloving
citizens to procure pictures for Newarks new art museum. There
is little doubt that if Newark had a public art gallery prior to the
death of DR.. Ward he would have provided in his will for the gift
of some of his masterpieces to the city. The sale of these pictures
is a serious loss to Newarks private art collections, for they include
some of the finest examples of European art. The collection is
now to be scattered among many buyers, and it will be most crafty
ing to see some of them brought back to Newark and given a perma
nent place in the gallery of the new museum of art.
