Power Of q sweet Voice.

There is no power Of love SO hard
TO get and keep MS a kind voice. A
kind hand is deaf and dumb. 1t
may be rough in flesh and blood yet
do The work Of soft heart, and do it
with u soft touch. But there is no
one thing that love SO much needs
as a sweet voice to tell what it means
and feels; and it is hard TO get and
keep it in the right tone. One must
start in youth, and be on the watch
night and day, at work and play, to
get and keep voice that shall speak
at all times the thoughts of a kind
heart. But this is the time when a
sharp voice lie most apt to be got.
You often hear boys and girls say
words at play with a quick, sharp
tone, as if it were the snap Of a whip
When one of them get vexcd you
will hear voice that sounds as II 1t
were made up Of snarl, a whine and
a bark. Such u voice often speaks
worse than the heart feels.
1t shows more ill-will in the tone
than in the words. 1t is often in
mirth that one gets voice or q tone
that is sharp, and sticks to him
through life, and Stirs up ill-will and
grief, and falls like drop of gall on
the sweet joys at home. Such as
these get a sharp home voice for use'
and keep their best voices for those
they meet elsewhere, just as they'd
save their best pies and cakes for
guests and all their sour food for their
own board.
would say to all boys and girls:
"Uso your guest voice at home
Watch it day by day, as pearl OF
great price for it will be worth more
to you in days to come than the best
pearl hid in the sea. A kind voice
is Joy like a lark'S song to n hearth
and home. 1t is to the heart what
light is to the eye, 1t is light that
sings as well as shines, Train it to
sweet tones now, and it will keep in
tune through life"
