Tones Of the Voice.

It is a curious fact that the tones Of
civilized races are louder and harsheT
than those used by savage tribes. In
deed, among people who are classed as
civilized, it will commonly be found that
the more highly cultivated, up to Ger
tain point, speak in the sharper tone. OF
course, when cultivation and refinement
have reached the point that the tones Of
the voice have become a matter of atten-
ton and care, the rule no longer holds,
for then low, well modulated tones are
acquired as an Accomplishment.
The philosophy of this popularity
seems to be that the same energy and
vigor which give certain races the leader
ship in advancement are accompanied by
unusual nervous strain, and we are well
aware how plainly nervousness is indi-
Gated in the tones. The people of New
England speak in sharper and shrilleI
voice than their cousins in old England.
They are also more intense in feeling and
more eager in action.
That this difference is not due to the
influence of climate is apparent upon a
comparison of our people with those OF
the dominion to the north and east of US.
It is only as climate or other agencies
may affect the entire character of peo-
pie that it has anything to do with the
tones in which they speak. Commonly,
as we approach the tropics, we find the
voice lower and softer; but, then, this is
only in keeping with the whole life of
the people, which shows less of force and
earnestness than that of people who in
habit the temperate zone. 1t suggests
that they are too indolent to raise their
voices.
The writer recalls that he has more
than once been asked by persons from
Brazil and from the Spanish countries Of
South America, who were new corners
among US, whether those whom they
overheard were really scolding, for they
discovered no petulance nor i'll feeling
except in the tones of the voice. Such
questions are calculated to awaken profit
able reflections. Companion.

Not Afraid to Fight.

can the Brandenburgers are soldiers"
said the German heir presumptive in a
recent speech. All the world knows
that. France found it out at Sedan to
her cost. The night Louis Napoleon and
his son reposed on downv couches in
silken tents the Brandenburgers passed In
the saddle, getting ready for the attack
which was to end in the capture of the
French army like SO many rats in trap.
Prince William, who is reputed to be of
a more martial turn of mind than his
father, the unfortunate crown prince,
declared in his speech that it is not true
that he wants war for the sake of glory.
But he is a Brandenburger, and ''all the
Brsndenburgers are soldiers, :" who ''only
fear God, and nothing else in this world. :"
There is no need to fear that Germany's
military prestige will be allowed to wane
under this kind of Chicago

How Fame Is Achiered.

Hardly any one who has risen in the
smallest degree into public noti is above
the harmless vanity of telling the utterly
obscure man how fame is achieved or the
foundation stones OF even moderate
greatness laid. The millionaire recalls his
diligence as a boy in sweeping out the
store on cold winter mornings, the lawyer
his wonderful assiduitv in copying papers
and reading very early editions of law
books by the freight, and the literary
man the toll expended on his first verses
and his secret joy at seeing them in the
poets corner of the country newspaper.
There Is nothing sweeter than the rehec-
ton that ones own career is standing

Keep Fowls Tame.

Keep fowls tame. You cannot afford to
have them wild. They will not pay as well,
lay as well, or afford one-half the satisfac-
ton that a tame flock would. If there is
anything that will disgust fancier 1t is to
see lot of hens flying wildly here and
there Whenever man approaches. Wehate
wild hens.
All breeds can be rendered tame by
proper treatment, but some breeds require
more care than others to produce this re-
suit. Generally speaking, the larger breeds,
like the Brahmss, Cochins, Plymouth Rocks
and the like. are more easily tsmsd than
the smaller ones like the Lsghorns and
HRmburgs. We have seen very tame Lsg-
horns and Handbags, however. We call
to mind a brown Leghorn cock that Will
appTosch Its owner, woman, and, upon be-
ing told to crow for his dinner would
straighton up and crow. He would lie
down and roll over, also, upon being bid
den to do so. We know OF mock OF golden
spangled Hamt urgs that will eat out of the
b anos of their owner without q sign of
fear. Thess cases are instances 70 sho "
what the right kind Of treatment can pro.
duce. IT is not uncommon to find brahmas
so tame that they can be picked up any
where. We know of one of the leading
breeders of Aslatics whose Br hmas are so
tame that they act as if they expected to
be caught and liked tie idea, when the
OWuCA dpPcdISs
Fowls can be rendered tame easily. The
observing of very few rules is necessary ::
1. Never frighten them.
2. Speak quietly in their presence.
3. Never make a quick movement to-
ward fowl, unless il be q sudden, short
movement in catching one, and then never
miss your bird.
The advantages of having tame fowls are
many. besides the general satisfaction ex-
perienced. It is convenient to have them
tame if you wish to show particular bird
to a customer. He would like to closely
examine il, and to do so he must have the
birds IN his hands. It is often necessary
to catch fowls for examination as TO some
symptoms of disease. II you have to chase
them all around the yard in order to catch
one, you either do not catch the fowl or
you waste great deal of precious time;
there is some wear upon your clothing and
good deal upon your temper. Fowls,
too, will actually keep on less food, lsy
more eggs, fatten more easily, and in every
way prove more profitable for being tame.
II you doubt it. try il and be convinced
A single seasons trial will satisfy you, and
you will never have any more wild fowls
in your yards.
