Electric Light and Public Speaking.

Singers, actors and public performers generally are able to speak with much greater ease and comfort In a building lighted with electricity than in one where gaslight is used. In the former case the temperature of the whole building is more equal and the risk of catching cold is consequently diminished. The spealcer_is cooler, does not perspire, his throat is not parched, and bis voice is less liable to get husky. It is said that since thq fntroduction of electric light public performers are In much better voice than they were before.
