The full Moon falls on the. 19th. The Mercury period is central or, the 20th, extending its perturbing ,power from. 12. 16, to the 26th. As may be seen by this month's storm diagram, there are two, storm periods within this Mercury brace. We are to understand by this that there is a partially dis- turbed condition, owing to the Mer- cury equinox, lasting from the 16th to the 26th—a distinct tendency to prolonged, stubborn cloudiness and drizzling rain; but the most 'marked results of the mercury influence will be felt during ,this period, 17th to 20th, and a regular period, '22nd to 27th. Some meteorologists have contended that the full Moon has a tendency to prevent or dissipate clouds, and hence, in a measure to prevent rain, but we do not so believe. The full anew does illuminate the darkness, even through thick rain- blouds, .b;t t•L.c records will show that such clouds are none the less productive of rain and snow, other conditions be.n* equal. Some of the hardest rain and snow storms are eat the full, Moon periods, and the most severe wind storms and changes in weather conditions are coincident with the full Moon, ox' Moon's oppose ;tion with the Earth and Sun. A case in proof may reasonabiiybe, expected at 'this reactionary storm period, Wednesday the 17th, • to. Saturday the 20th. Suppose you make it your special pleasure to watch this period— watch at home, and watch generally through newspapers and telegraphic channels. High barometer and change to much cooler will follow these storms. 1 FURNITURE= We can assist you in selecting your furniture if you are going to furnish ) our home, or if you on'.y want some odd 1 ieces.

Her itinerary includes New York, where, on April •25th she appeared at Carnegie HalL 'Rochester on April 26th, Philadelphia on April 27th, Newark on April 28th. Cincinnati on May 1st, Chicago ou May! 4th, Minneapolis on May 5th, St, Paul on May 8th, Birmingham on 2Iay 10th, Delis, San Fran:is:o, Den-, ver and Toronto. Such a tours as this id unique in the annals of music. Madam Rappold is one or the inventor's most valuable co-workers in his experiments with the human .void 'a hie 'famous Lr boratories at Orange, N.J. Her - voice is of .singular 'purity, such a voice as the wizard has need of in hiswork on acoustics, and be has mads frequent use of it. A few. weeks ago before a gathering of music crit`.cs, the Prima Donna undertook to sing in unison; with a record ad hex( voice, with the astounding result that it was impossible for even trained ears to distinguish between her living and re-created voices. Edison regards this perfect matching of the human voice ns one o: his greatest achievements, and said Bo frankly to some of bit friends present ate the 'time of this experiment. The past season at 'the Metropolitan. has been the 'mast brilliant of, Madam Rappold's career. She has sung (scores of exacting roles, including Desdemona in "Otello," Leonora In "11 Trovatore," Elsa in, "Lohengrin" Elizabeth in "Tannhauser," Eva in "Die Meistersinger," and Freia in "Das 'Rhein -gold," Only recently she sang one of the leading roles in Herman Goetz's operatic version of. "The Taming of the Shrew." Madam Rappold is a Brooklynite. Since she attained 'prominence in the operatic world she has received many flattering offers from foreign impresarios, buts- she prefers her own country. Several seasons ago she was decorated by the King ,of Roumania fox! the beauty and brilliance of her. ,singing during the opera seatson in Bucharest. 17er voice is a dramatic soprano with a wonderfully appealing quality, The NEW EDISON is on Sale at — J.
