! She was congratulating herself
that she had phrased her answer
so that it was not a direct lie, when
she became aware that Herbert was
asking Jelly:
"You know! How do you know
if you were not there?"
See looked helplessly at Dorothy
who responded promptly:
Weren't you aware, Herbert
that always keep in touch with
my studio by telephone"
But I didn't leave my name with
your switchboard operator"
Dorothy smiled negligently.
"Ah, you've no idea of the in
telligence of that girl! She knows
your voice, especially since you," she
looked prettily apologize, made
rather a fuss yesterday when you
called to find out at what hour Lila
had visited my studio"
Herbert flushed.
IT never fuss" he said Stiffly.
Lila changed the conversation,
unfortunately.
Herbert, darling, you've no idea
how wonderful the Baranov orches-
ira isl You should have been
there"
He looked at her intently.

1said politely, and added, with
an irony that chilled her. It should
like to have been there. indeed, my
dear-if there had been a concert
this afternoon. Unfortunately, it
was cancelled at the last moment,
due to the illness of the leader"
He exhibited the last edition of
an evening paper, which carried a
brief notice to that effect.
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1928-11-19

There was horrible silence for
a moment. Lila'S and Dorothy'S
eyes met, asking the mute question:
What orchestra was 1t, then, that
we heard over the radio?"
Then Dorothy began to laugh.
Herbert looked at her, outraged,
but she only chuckled the more.
Its no use being angry, Herbert.
Lila and admit we're caught, but
you'll never get us to confeSs-not
in million years"
Herbert was very dignified.
Il think I am within my rights in
wanting to know where my wife
has been this afternoon"
Dorothy shook her head. She
knew there was nothing to do now
but try to carry off the situation
with a high hand.
"Old stuff, Herbert. You talk like
an 1880 husband. 1t isn't done
nowadays. If your wife's out with a
girl friend, that's sufficient. Women
have their secrets, you know"
Il believe said Herbert stiffly,
chat 1 scarcely need you to tell me
how to conduct my married life"
"A little good advice never does
any HARM" remarked Dorothy
cheerfully, quite unimpressed.
At this moment, SiddonS knocked
and entered the room.
Lila's heart sank, when she saw
what he carried.
1t was a florists box, in mauve
and gold, tied with gold gauze. BY
the size of it, any one could tell that
it contained a corsage- bouquet.
He walked toward Lila and seemed
about to skeak.

ever did not ask for this and the committee passing
the point reported that 1t had $3250O0 in cash and
needed about 100000 more.
The Cite Uniyersitare the outskirts of Paris signals
the decline and fall of Bohemianism among Paris stu

The French government and the city of Paris became
aware of the situation and donated to the University of

combining hydrogen and coal Another tells of an in

There are q number OF diseases and
abnormalities which may affect the
respiratory apparatus, throat or
nasal passages, and all Of them will
influence the speech. We are all ia
miliar with the hoarseness accom-
panying a cold and the peculiar nasal
tWang from q deformity or polypus OF
the nasal passages.
Men who are forced to use their
voices in public often develop q sore
ness of the throat and an inability to
talk much above a whisper. This is
usually termed the "clergyman's sore
throat" It results from an insult
ficient breath control Of the dta-
phragm and chest rather than from
too much speaking. The huskiness Is
usually made worse by the many REM
edies applied.
Lisping and peculiarities Of speech
may be caused by cleft palate.
tongue-tie or other deformity, or they
may result simply from habit.
A mute person or one having an In
ability to speak is usually a mental
defective, although occasionally per-
son with exceptional mental brilliance
is found suffering from some inter-
ference with the nerve supply to the
vocal organs. A deafness from birth
may also cause mutism from not hav-
ing learned to speak, (since one at
fected in this was has not the OPP
portunity of learning to speak,. These
people may be taught to speak even
though they cannot hear, If they will
closely watch, feel and initiate the
throat and lip movements of others.
Stammering can usually be over
come by careful training. since it is
usually caused by incoordination or
lack of control of the vocal appar-
atus.
Aphasia sometimes occurs in brain
diseases from destruction of the
cells controlling speech. The treat
ment for this form of inability to
speak is the same as that employed
for apoplexy, since the causes are
much the same.
The most frequent cause of a
roughening of the voice and an un-
pleasant harshness is chronic catarrh.
So prevalent is this disease that al
most any voice may be improved if its
owner will undergo the fasting and
dieting regime which I outline for
the cure Of catarrh.
Perfect health is reflected in the
voice, and it is not unusual to find
that some of our greatest singers
have come from the hardy sons of
toll and the peasants of Europe.
There are many exercises for de-
