Slnainu and the lunos.

It Is well known that singing. like whistling, is a fine exercise for the lungs, and some doctors advise those who fear consumption to go in for singing for this reason.
 At the same time. they, of course, do not advance the claim that singing alone will save anyone from or cure consumption. Acquire the habit of taking the big deep breath, which is a primary requisite of any kind of sing ing, bad or good, and the physical joy derived from it will never allow you to relapse into lazy breathing.

Blessed Svmpathy,

Sympathy with animals blesses and humanizes men and women. To get into real relation with an animal Is a liberal education. It is something to be really interested even in a plant and to observe the working of life in any sphere not our own. How much more when that life is directing a personality which consciously looks up to us and will love us if we will let it.-Christian Register.
