he tells US that be heard two voices addfcss him.
The one hade him desisi told bin, the power
his invention would put Ia the hands Of bad men
10 propagate their wickcdness told him how
men would profane tue art he had created aud
how posietiiy would have cause 10 curse the
man who gave Il 10 the world. 80 impressed
was Guttenburg with what he heard, that be-
took hammer aud broke TO pieces the types be
had - laboriously put together. His work ol
destruction was only stayed by another voice
sweet and musical that fell on his ear, telling
him to go on, and TO rejoice In his work thai
all good might be made the cause Of evil bul
that God would bless the right In the end. Sc
90 all OF Us still come those voices that came ts
