Every girl has a sweet little voice
If she will but train it to sweetness,
and to SO train it is one of the
duties she owes to her parents and
to her future husband and children.
4 sweet voice is fine dowry for
any br de. The wife who can sing
simple song in a musical voice
and play her accompaniment on the
piano has the markings OF a happy
life. Far better for such one

she should he an uncertain success

musical voice does not mean a voice
that is constantly busy in song.
Singing is all right, and every girl
should be able and willing to sing.
but it is better to nave good CON

Harsh voices are unconsiCiously as

POINTS ON BUYING SHOES.

Here are a few hints on buying
shoes Never insist on wearing a
aeW pair of shoes home, for you may
BE greatly disappointed if you do,
When the feet are warm they are
larger than when cold, consequently
4 shoe tried on when the feet are
,ery cold, will actually be too small
and uncomfortable when the feet are
warm A dead-looking leather, in
tended for a bright leather, shows
It once it comes from old stock,
The leather will crack and break in
l few wearings.
If you have a shoe that shows a
line of sewing, coarse stitching, on
the inside of the sole beneath the
lining, you have a welt shoe which
S not good, if you paid the price
Of a hand-turned shoe. All hand
turned shoes have slipper soles, and
are intended wholly for indoor wear,
though undoubtedly they are worn
everywhere.
Highly polished shoes should be
gradually heated enough to make
hem moderately warm before they
are first worn, at which time they
take the set" of the foot and there
in less danger of them breaking. Try
IN both shoes when purchasing a
pair Enameled colt skin does not
crack so easily as enameled calf.

| Should cake stick to the pans, put

When parsley is not obtainable

INSECT sTINGs OR BITES.

For bee. wasp or hornet sting,
ammonia is at hand, apply it at
once; if not, bind on an application

cooking soda is also effective
If an insect bite is very poisonous
try to extract the sting with fine
needle dipped in peroxide or passed
through flame. Then poultice the

The educational bureau al Wash

the use of a course in musical APP
probation, and the furtherance Of
musical education in the schools.
The course suggested Includes the
study Of musical history and biogra-
ply, musical form, musical aesthe-

gested that credit be given for must
cal work done with a music teacher
out of school hours provided that
certain standard is maintained. The
eport says that the modern de

made possible a method OF study in

his church is being oyer-crowded, and

The one-act opera, Madeleine,
by Victor Herbert, was lately pro
duced by the Metropolitan Opera in
New York The opera deals with
a pretty incident in the period OF
Louis XVI, and was in fact adapted
by Grant-Stewart from the little
comedy by Decourcelles and Thibaud,
which has long been a French stand
ard play. The principals in the var
ious roles were Nine. Aide. Lenora'
Sparks. Paul Althouse and Pini-Corsi.
The Metropolitan Opera company has
apparently adopted the pleasing Gus
tom of graciously permitting one

The girl with a sweet little voice
need not feel discouraged because
she has no opportunity to sing in

pleasure by being songbird in the

The girl with a sweet little voice
should not wish to sing in grand

COTTON THROUGH THE CANAL.

One of the few bright spots In the
very dark cotton situation is connect
ed with the Panama canal. A steam
ship loaded 3,2T0 tons of cotton at
Galveston, consigned to Yokohama,
and one day in the last week OF oc-
tober made the passage through the
Panama canal-the first time a cargo
of cotton had passed that way.
BY using the Panama canal, the
steamer will save at least $3.50 miles
of sea travel The distance from Cal
weston to Yokohama by way Of Pan
anna, San francisco and the Great
Circle is. 1924 miles; the next short
est route is by the Suez canal and by
the most direct sailing is 1855 miles
long. This means a saving of twenty
two days and great deal OF money.
Cotton shipped to Japan In 1918
was valued at $Sz.5o0.o00. and there
is already reason to believe that this
years export to Japan will be in
creased rather than diminished by the
war. -
