More Testimony.

WALKERsvILLE, S. G.
Gentlemen: My wife was snffering
with all the SYMPTOMS of dyspepsia. and
could not eat anything without suffering
very great pain. As a consequence of this
deranged and morbid condition of the
digestive organs, she took yellow iaundice,
and was treated by the best of physicians
without any benefit. I heard of DR.. West
moreland's Calislaya Tonic, and bought
two bottles, from the use Of which She
was entirely cured, and has not had an at
tack for nearly two years.
Very respectfully,
ABNER WALKER.

Professor Seber has touched one Of the
evils of the day when he declares that
there prevails a keenly felt dearth Oh
thorough teachers who have devoted
their lives to the special study OF the for
nation Of the voice. and this remark APP
plies Just as forcibly In public speaking.
Our people have yet TO learn that a ready
Cow OF ideas and the gift Of gab do not
constitute the sole and only requisite OF
the impassioned and eloquent orator.
Cicero. when he began his public ca
reer. soon found his voice and delivery
20 inadequate that he gave up his pro-
fession for a time. and spent number
of years in Greece and Asia Minor in the
study of elocu.ion. When he returned
and resumed his profes'ion. his voice be-
came proverbial for its sweetness, COM
pass and power. and his delivery charmed
md delighted one of the most eloquent
ages in the worlds history. The severity
of the exercises pursued by penosthenes
have furnished texts for even the writ
ing books OF our schools, and. as result
ne 30 developed the clearness OF his ar
ticulation and the strength OF his voice
that II enabled him to subdue into silence
and awe those tumultuous assemblies OF
the Athenian democracy, where the noise
and confusion were often like that ION

as clergymen's sore throat when he says
Il would seem that he who lmagfnes
himself to be preaching the gospel. while
he violates almost every law OF oral
speech, deceives himself and commits no
little sin-a sin which. like all others,
does not fail to punish itself. For those
wasting throat diseases with which cler-
gymen are afflicted more than any other
class of public speakers are often traced
physiologically speaking, to bad manage
ment Of the voice; to the violation OF
those laws which nature has prescribed
for articulate speaking-laws which. like
all others established by the God Of ma
ture. can never be violated with inn
punity. This view is confirmed by the
fact that no more effectual preventive
for these diseases has been discovered
than thorough course Of sound elocu-
tionary training. Medical Classics
