Singers and Diet. “Alcoholic stimulants should be avolded. They make the voice heavy and irritate the throat. A hoarse, harsh er almost always has a hoarse, harsh volce. Never sing directly after eat- ing. A singer should not eat greasy meats. No dishes made with flour should be eaten. If one does not ob- serve this regimen it will be found nearly impossible to sing coloratura passages as they should be sung.” This is the opinion of Carl Streitman. One prima donna is a vegetarian. Her diet is conflned to vegetables, fruits and bread occasionally. She drinks only water. Another singer avelds sweets and pastry, and never touches coffee. She never allows smoking, if. possible, in her presence, for she has decided opinions on the injury that it does the voice—Dundee Advertiser. Bryan and Slights.

Under that act the Governor General In council is author- ized to prescribe certain rules. A draft of the proposed rules has now been extended that objections and sugges- tlons concerning the amendment of these rules will be received no later than October 14, 1912. The proposed rules forbid any one to possess or use an airship without a license, which may be obtained from certain designated officials. Before a license is issued particulars are to be flled giving the names, occupation and residence of the applicant and a des- cription of the airship; that is to say, in the case of the dirigibles, the type, the capacity of the envelope, over-all length, diameter, material of which the envelope is made and the name of the maker, carrying capacity in _weight and number of persons. In the case of aeroplanes the description shall in- clude the type, whether tractor or propellor driven, span, total length fore and aft, helght total carrying ca- | pacity in weight in live load, including pilot, the disposal of seating accommo- dation, position of driver'’s seat, and whether fitted with dual control.
