THE WORLD'S GREATEST TENOR
Gives a hint to tired people—
A letter has reached us from Signor Caruso, from which it is plain that the great tenor feels that fane is not without its ansieties. Of course his chief concerit is the care of his marvellous voice, and there is a story told that when the So. Leancken cuando happen at the rear from his hotel in a sleeping suit, and immediately stopped in the street and sang a les notes in order to see whether the shock hd damaged his voice. All people with an artistic or sensitive temperament are most susceptiblc to nervous shock or nerve weariness, and Signor Caruso says in the fetter referred to, that he found the most effective remedy for his tired notre was a dust of Pansferine. The most gifted people usually make the gearst demands on their Nerve Force, and it is evident that Signor Caruso found the restorative proprieties of Phosfering so beneficial that be feels constrated to confirm the testimony of innumerable corres- pondents in every rank of life.
Which he has proved reliable.
Signor ENRICO CARUSO writes: Ho provato la Phosferine preparata dei Senore Ashion e Pusons, e la ho trovato si molto efficacito per la stanchezza. Conmiglio si Saluto, ENRICO CARUSO." (Presluten) "I have to the 'beferine of Messrs. Ashton & Parsons and have found it most efficacions when I am tired. With my best salutations, ENRICO CAR050," July 3, 1906.

A St. Potezaimrg correspondent says: The discussions held here with a view to framing the new Commercial Treaty with Japan brought up the three following essential
points The Japanese demanded, firstly liberty of etcculation on the Amar River, with permission for the Japanese to kab in that river and to establish fisheries along its banks; secondly,
