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 fame is not without its anxieties. Of course his chief concern is the care of his marvellous voice, and there is a story tokł that when the San Francisco earthquake happened, he ran from his hotel in a sleeping suit, and immediately stopped in the street and sang a few notes in order to see whether the shock had damaged his voice. All people with an artistic or sensitive temperament are most susceptible to nervous shock or nerve weariness, and Signor Caruso says in the letter referred to, that he found the most effective remedy for his tired nerves was a dose of Phosferine. The most gilled people usually make the greatest demands on their Nerve Force, and it is evident that Signor Caruso found the restorative proprieties of Phosferine so beneficial that he feels constrained 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 Ashton e Parsons, e la ho trovato si molto efficacito per la stanchezza. Con i miglio si Saluto, ENRICO CARUSO." (Fosshatreal I have tried the Phosferine of Messrs. Ashton & Parsons and have found it must efficacious when I am tired. With my best salutations, ExRICO CARUSO." July 3, 1906.

When it was worstood he would prosent himself for cross-examination he stated he bark -no intention of ding so, and the roasun he gave for refusing to be oramiuad was that the question of his alleged misconduct with Mrs. Loveli was a secular and not an ecclesiastical maltor.
Earl of Halfbury said if there had been jurisdiction and if there had been subject ma-tor of appeal it was only accessary to say that there was ample evidence for holding that the decision of the bishop in this case was right. In the opinion of the Board, they had no jüri-tie. tion to entertain such an appeil as this. Daily
