DOES A MAGNET
LIFT THINGS

THE exact principle which causes
magnet to take hold of metals and
cling to them with a force which over
comes the principle Of gravity is, like
electricity one of the unsolyed myS-
teries of nature. We merely know
that a piece of iron which has been
electrically treated will attract and
hold various other metals, The force
which it eXerts we call magnetism
and let 1t 90 at that-just as we
speak Of electricity" personality"
and "radio-activity.' all of which are
forces which puzzle science and, up
to this time, have dehed a clear ex-
PLANTATION The most logical eNplnna-
\tion would appear to be that an cleo
trically.treated piece of iron gives of
force analogous to that given off by
piece of radlum in that it will af-
feet other pieces Of metal without
materially lessening its own power.
The name magnet is derived from
the mineral magnetic" and this. in

discovered in MugneSia Magnetic is

Vain Regrets

TT SEEMED to Nick as though he
L could never blot from his mind tie
memory of that moment when he had
come into the Marriott library to see
Carol in Britton's arms.
The scene in the second act had just
begun. and even though Nick kept tell
ing himself not to be fool. that it was
only a play. and that he was absurd
to feel as he did, for the moment he
was all primitive man. At that moment
he could have killed Jcrvis Britton,
but moment later when he had seen
Carols face as her eyes met Britton S,
Nick agony was complete.
1t was true then. she cared. He had
been afraid of this blow and it had
fallen. Once he had said that he would
kill the man who came between them.
but now, with the full realization OF
everything sweeping over him. he could
have laughed at the idea.
He loved Carol! He could never do
anything to cause her unhappiness'
Already he had done her a great wrong
in marrying her. for he had robbed
her of her freedom to choose her mate.
II at last she had met the man she
could love there was nothing else for
Nick to do but step out. And yet,
Britton wasn't the man he would have
chosen for Carol! There vas something
about him not quite trustworthy. stories

had been whispered about him. Suppose
Carol were not happy with him, the
thought was agony 10 Nick. and it re.
mained with him long after he had taken
Carol home and had gone to bed to toss
restlessly from side to side, feverishly
wide eyed and awake.
Nick lay there thinking Of his life
since he had married Carol. He thought
of Daisy Castleton. and tenderness came
with the thought. inadvertently he had
stumbled on her secret, for there was no
subtlety about Daisy and she had been
unable to hide from him the fact that
she loved him. 1t had happened one aft
ernoon when he had dropped in to call
on her and they had been alone.
Nick had called on Daisy two or three
times since she had written him,
simply for the fact that he liked her.
that he admired her brave struggle to
be different. to study and learn, and
then one afternoon when a silence had
fallen between them, Daisy looked
lines and its rather stern mouth. anu
burst into tears.
Instantly Nick was bending over her.
'.Daisy. what is it.; Tell me about 1t.
Come on. little pal ->you can tell me,
you know
Its because you're so unhappy"
she jerked out. "And I cant bear it.
You don't know what horrible crea-
turc | am. Nick. l schemed to get you
here, because I thought l could win
you away from-her! Don't you sup
pose l know that she's making you un.
happy, that she doesn't love you? And
l care for you so much, Nick! o, l
know you don't care for me that way.
but could make you happier than she
does, and now that I've told you the
truth. you'll hate me. but l couldn't
keep in any longer, had to tell you.
There's something about YOU that just
brings out the best in me-
And Nick had sat down beside Daisy
and taken her two hands in his.
I'm proud to have you care for me
that way, little pal,' he had said softly,
"but there's only one woman in the
world for me. and I'd be more miserable
with any one else. even woman who
loved me. than ! am with things as they
are. Try to understand and take what
] have to give. It's about the best
friendship that a man could give n
woman.'
Nick went over the scene in his mind
as he lay there looking up into the dark
ness. What tanglc life was and how
strange that hW should go on loving
Carol when she had made it. so plain
that his love meant nothing to her.

W 8 A result Of my own experi'
"A ence and observation said
well. known opera singer in an article,
my belief Is that the breaks in the
voice are built up in the imagination.
The wise teacher, I believe, will not
attempt to bridge those breaks; she
will eliminate the thought Of them"
Do you know what she means by
the breaks" in a voice?
Just this; where the voice moves from
deep low tones to medium ones, there
Is a change in the placing Of It; as 1t
goes on up into the head tones there
is another change, and the beginner in

her voice and making break in the
tone. ... ,...
As time goes on and her teacher
trains her to approach the change and
glide over it smoothly she masters It,
and her voice from the lowest to the
highest notes of its range will slide up
in an even, unbroken, tone.
1t has been proved more than once
that there Is no need Of these breaks
II the singer doesn't know that there
are such things she learns where to

But you can't.
