Suggestion
DO you know what made my voice so melodious? said a celebrated vocal
performer, of awkward manners, to Charles Bannister. No, replied the
other. Why, then, I'll tell you: when I was about fifteen, I swallowed,
by accident, some train oil.--I don't think, rejoined Bannister, it
would have done you any harm if, at the same time, you had swallowed a
dancing-master!
