EMMY DEsTINN ON SINGING

Emmy Destinn, the great singer has been giving some advice in Harper's g Bazar to girls who would follow in her footsteps. In the June Bazar she says. among other things
 ITO know more than one language. for example, aside from the fact that it is necessary in these days for an opera singer, is matter of culture as well as a practical advantage. Here in America you have less need to use and less on. portunity to practice foreign languages than we have in Europe, but you should not neglect them. I, as a Bohemian liv- ln1' in German speaking country, was naturally born to the literature of two races; also all we'll educated Austrians Know French, or Italian, to sing in those languages. It will make it a thousand times more easy for her to learn her lines if she really knows the language.
 There are girls studying for opera, am told, who are not familiar with the lives of the composers or with any of the things that are associated with their art But in what way will we live our lives if we think only of the things of the operatic life! I cannot tell you how much happiness 1 have had from my books Which l have long been interested in col lecting. I even bring an inconvenient number of them to America with me, and there are hundreds more in Prague"

Filling Up Gatun Lake

The gates of Gatun have been closed, and by August 1 it is expected the water in the lake will rise to 50 feet above the sea level
 The general level work at Culebra Cut is now F feet above the final grade, and all work is well advanced both below Gatun' dam and beyond Culebra Cut.
 The canal is approaching compile tion, and in about years time the great work will stand complete if no unexpected disaster occurs, and none is expected. An earthquake might delay the opening of the canal, but nc mere slide in Culebra Cut can do it Gatun dam and lake are really tho keys to the successful building of the canal, the greatest single work ever undertaken by man.

From the Philadelphia Record.
 It is we'll for people to know before typhoid fever comes walking into their homes that Dr. Asa Ferguson of London, England, has discovered that lemon juice is a deadly foe to typhoid bacilli and will cause the germs to shrivel up and die al- most immediately.
 A few drops of lemon juice in a glass Of drinking water will kill any typhoid germs that may be In the water. and make the drinker immune from typhoil fever.
 There are great many things that iemons are good for besides making the refreshing lemonade.
 Most everyone knows that to take hot lemonade when going to bed is good to break up a cold Not so many may know that the juice of half a lemon in a cup of black coffee. without any sugar, will cure sick headache
 To take strong, unsweetened lemonade before breakfast will also prevent and cure bilious attack
 To take lemon juice mixed very thick with sugar will relieve that annoying. tickling cough.
 1T you drink glass of water with lemon juice squeezed in it every morning It will keep your stomach in good order and prevent you from having dyspepsia.
 When you have a bad headache rub slices of lemon along the temple, and it wil soon give relief. It Is good if bee or insect sting you to put few drops of lemon juice on the spot.
 To saturate a cloth with lemon Juice and bind on a cut or wound will stop it's bleeding
 If your fruit juices, such as cherry, strawberry, etc, do not jell readily add lemon jice to them, and 1t will cause them to jell.
 Lemon juice and salt is good to remove iron rust.
 If you have a corn that bothers you rub 1t with lemon,. after taking a hot bath, and cut away the corn.
 Now, if you want to have a beautiful complexion squeeze lemon juice into 4 quart of milk and rub it on your face night and morning.
 There are many useful things that ,em- ons will do for you if you only know what they are and try them. They should be used more freely than they are in mosr homes, and they might save you doctor bills.

A TIGER PROOF HOUSE

The ordinary Malay house is built on posts from five to seven feet high; but one which I came across, says a writer in the June Strand, was perched high up in tree It was the home of a man, his wife, and family, and they in- formed me that 1t was placed in this unusual situation so as to be out of the way of the numerous tigers which then infested the neighborhood As tigers have been known to jump IS feet in vertical height, somewhere about 20 l feet is considered to be the limit of safety. The Malayan house Is a frail and nimsy structure of sticks tied to- gether with rattan, matched with ralm leaves, and walled with plaited
 bamboo, or, as In this case, with the bark of trees. It is, therefore, an easy matter for a tiger, with its great strength, to break into house and at
 tack the inhabitants Many instances of this have been recorded in Malaga.
 In one well known case a whole fam | fly were killed, except one man, who, climbing up into the roof and thus es- caping the notice of the tiger, was a mortified observer of the cruel mauling and ultimate slaughter and devouring l of his relatives.
