Why Singers Break Down.

Singing is an abnormal exercise OF
the lungs, to say nothing Of the other
organs involved. 1t over exercises the
upper portion of the body, forcing alb
normal pressure in an upward direc-
ton and tending to overhead the up-
per portion Of the body. Up to GER
tain point, healthful stimulation OF
the blood circulation is the happy re-
suit; but beyond that point, the in
creasing motion impaired tends to
fever, and a reaction the next day,
shows that a cooling down period has
been forced upon the singers atten.

PROGRESS OF THE WAR

Gradually the French and English
are pushing the German back upon
the intrenched and fortified line
Arras-Cambria-St. Quentin-La Fere-
Laon. The line is supposed to run
several miles westward OF these
towns and perhaps six or seven miles
from Laon. which is near the south
ern extremity.
Repeating their performance of
last year, the French made a swifter
forward drive than the English, due,
nodoubt, to the fact that the French
soldiers were trained theoretically in
all the manehvers of open warfare in
the years of peace. The English
know much more about trench war
fare than righting in the open. The
original English army-the expedi-
tionary force-was highly trained in
open field fighting and knew little
of trench war.
The French last year drove almost
> to Peronne In the first two days of
fighting after the big offensive be-
gan. This year they selected La
Fere as the apex Of the wedge they
planned to drive into the German
line. This movement carried them
with comparative swiftness to La
Fere, while both north and south OF
that town their lines drifted irregu-
larly westward. But they had made
good their wedge and their task,
since capturing the outlying forts al
La Fere, has been to bring up the
