Romani began to teach his pupils by what he called “breathing” lessons, whereby lie made them expand their lungs so as to strengthen them, and at tlio same time acquire tho habit of re¬ taining sufficient breath to finish a long sentence of cadenza without interrupting it. Once ho had ascertained ft the register of the voice, whether was base, bari¬ tone or tenor, mezzo soprano or con¬ tralto, lie immediately obliged his pupil to promise him ou his honor not to at¬ tempt to force a singlo note above or below his natural register. This art of breathing is ono of the first taught in tho great conservatories of * Europo. The pupil takes a looking glass and stands be¬ fore its throws hack his chest, puts liis feet together in a straight line and begins to fill his lungs gradually with air, keep¬ ing the mouth wide open, with a smiling expression. When the lungs are full he heats with his fingers strokes generally from he three up to about fifty before allows the breath to escape very slowly from tho open mouth without closing the mouth at alL These exercises, repeated for about a quarter of an hour three or four times a day, unquestionably benefit the health and imperceptibly but rapidly increase tho volumo of sound emitted. In about two months the pupil begins to add to these breathing exercises others, in which ho draws his breath in the same manner, but pronounces each of the vowels at first pianissimo, and increasing gradually by degrees to fortissimo—almost to a shout. Singers, of course, replace these simple Bounds by solfeggi and other vocalizes.— Saturday Review, Lost from the Hotels. An old hotel steward said yesterday that it is impossible to restrict a large proportion of the loss of portable articles in hotels. This loss is not so much due to theft as to carelessness and hurry on the part of maids and men and women, who carry off the teaspoons they have been using in their rooms, pack up the hotel towels by mistake, and break a good deal thatis only missed when an inventory is taken. This steward said that a largo hotel collects spoons, napkins and towels stamped with the names of almost all the large hotels in the country, and of names in Europe. The spoon packed away with tho child’s medicine by a maid in Paris is, perhaps, next brought to light in a New York hotel, where it is sent down to the kitchen when no longer needed. Thus these little but costly things travel about and defy safe keeping. There is a great deal of theft, of course. Servant women wrap tablecloths and sheets around their persona, waiters pocket forks, spoons, knives and napkins, and bartenders and their helpers carry off bottles of liquors. As far as possible, large hotels board and house their help, because that makes it more difficult for theft to be practiced. But the leakage remains very great. In one case that can be certified to, a clever waiter established Iris wife at the head of a boarding house and furnished her tableware, linen and a great deal of the food that was eaten from his stealings from the different places where he was employed.—New York Sun. » - .V- - - - —.... Tho Flbcn of Wool. Why does not wool felt on the sheep’* back? The answer is simple. Because all the fibers aro lying one way. The serratures always point in the direction away from the root of the fiber, and thus they cannot fit into each other any more than could two saw edges pointing the same way stick interlock, or than both two fir conos could together if lay in the 6amo direction. But reverse ono cf them and then try to draw it past the other while touching it, and they will at once become flistened together. In like manner, during the various processes of manufacture, the fibers of wool are pulled their edges about in every direction, and thus aro placed with many of tho points facing each other and ready to seize hold when the felting operation be¬ gins— Drv (basis Chrooicla. have moved back to Our: Old : Place!
