The voices of women as we'll as of
men were often utilized for 'long-

by the sexes. When a man had
occasion to summon any one from
a distance, the prolonged tone was
placed on the first note, the empha-

longed tone and the emphasis were
both placed on the last note, thus:

A Missing Diamond.

One night a newly engaged couple
were going to ball. In the car.
riage he asked her to let him see
her ring for moment; some pecu-
liarity of its sparkle having caught
his eye, although why she should
have had her glove off no one can
tell. She gave him the ring, and
he examined it for a time in the
light of the carriage window. When
the carriage stopped she asked him
for the ring. But l gave it back
to you and you took it." mo, you
did not. l have not had it since I
gave it to you."
Lights were brought, search was
made, clothes were shaken-every
place where a diamond ring could
possibly lie concealed was uncov-
cred. The ring could not be found.
Each persisted, be that he gave the
ring back, she that she did not re-
ceive it. Assertion became argu-
ment; argument changed from heat
to ice; communication was inter-
rupted and finally ceased; the en-
gagement was broken. They went
their ways, and each married an
other. One day several years later
the woman, ripping up an old ball
dress, found in the heading of one
of the ruffles a diamond ring. It
was the lost engagement ring. She
wrote to her former lover letter of
apology and explanation, but the
incident had turned the current of
both their lives. This is a true
story.
Recently Mrs. L. B. Walford, the
genial author of "Mr. Smith" and
"The Baby's Grandmother" has
collected a number of similar but
not such fateful incidents, concern
ing diamond rings, which she says
are peculiarly liable to these be-
witchments.-N. Y. Sun.

Miracles In Education.

The miracles of education which
are happening right in our midst
are glimpses into the life of immor-
tai progress. A blind and deaf and
mute girl is taught to talk. Lesser
marvels are being effected at the
Horace Mann School every day by
Miss Sarah Fuller. In the upper
grades of the school one might
hardly realize that a miracle had
been effected; but go into the Pri-
mary Department and see there how
after all a miracle is but success
ion of steps in evolution. A hand
glass and bit of chalk are the
instruments. The wee deaf child
looks at the teachers mouth and
then at her own reflected in the
glass which she holds in front of
her. She sees an object, it's name is
put on the board. Somehow her
mind (there is the miracle to be
revealed later weaves together the
object, the name and the teachers
mouth into one whole. The child
tries to make her mouth shape itself
like the teachers mouth. The in
structor takes the child's finger,
places it on her throat and nostrils
that the child may feel the vibra-
tions, and in front Of her lips that
she may feel her breath. Then with
facial contortions, often with move
ments of the body as if in making
a physical effort, the child tries to
initiate the positions of the mouth
she has watched, to feel her own vi
brations and breath in turn, and the
word comes forth strange and loud.
Repetition modifes its strength and
modified articulation is gained. No
signs are allowed in the school.
Watch and feel is the rule. It is
look, not listen. It is writing and
articulation at once, consequently
seven-year old child can easily
carry on a simple conversation on
the blackboard. Intense enthusi-
asm, beautiful and wise, pervades
the school. The mouth becomes the
sine qua non of teaching, in way
unknown until the "oral' method
was invented Transcript.

A Female Free Mason,

The only female free mason in
the world lives in Oakland, Cal.
Her name is Mrs. Salome Ander-
son, and her portrait adorns the
temple Of Live Oak lodge, No. 81,
where it is placed in a position Of
honor among the pictures of the
past masters. The story of how she
became one of the craftsmen is in
teresting. She was born in Alsaee-
Lorraine in 1918, and becoming an
orphan at an early age, she went to
Paris to reside with her uncle who
was Jealous and prominent ma
son. The lodge meetings were held
in his house, and with the curiosity
of her sex, she concealed herself in
the room during q couple of the
sessions, and thus learned some Of
the misteries Of the order. She was,
however, caught while thus hiding.
and the secrets that she had discov-
cred we're then made q sacred trust,
for she was received into the fra
ternity. She located in Oakland in
1854, and in 1865 her husband was
elected to the city council. He died
in 1867, and since then she has de-
voted herself. almost entirely to
charity, her attention being, howe~-
er, foremostly directed in masonic
enterprises She was elected q mem-

Nothing can be truer than what Mr..
Briscoe says in his last sentence. 1t is usage
that makes the rules Of grammar, and not the
rules Of grammar that make usage. But it
is precisely English usage that condemns
the sentence that Mr.. Briscoe trios to defend.
The fact is that in English, the nouns, except
when in the nominativo of address (yocatiYe,
are always su0 posed to be il the third per
son, unless it is expressly indicated that they
are in tho first, by their being put in
opposition with the first personal pro-
noun. For example, John Roe has to make a
declaration in a court Of Justice. If he starts
with the words, The undersigned John Roe
he must continue in the third person, The
undersigned John Roe hereby makes declara-
ton and says.' He cannot write, "Ihe un-
dersigned John Roe hereby make declaration
and say" That We know John Roe to be the
speaker. and that it is his own declaration,
signed by himself. make no difference the
third person must still be used. If he wishes
to write in the first person, he must write, II,
the undersigned John Roe, hereby make
declaration and say, where the use Of the
first personal pronoun E" L" settles the matter.
Similarly Brown and Smith cannot advertise,
.'Brown q Smith inform oar friends &c. 1t
they wish to write "our'' they must commence
the sentence with We "l}e, Brown e
Smith. inform our friends otherwise they
must write. Brown s. Smith inform their
friends Neither will the desire 70 give
energy to the sentence excuse a departure
from the usage. Brown o2nnot say: Nh.
Brown most emphatically deny that nay
action was malicious p; he must say "Mr.
Brown most emphatica!ly denies that his ac-
ton was malicious, otherwise he must com-
menco. 81, Brown, DC.
The sentence criticised was, "It is therefore
becoming for Mr.. Paul, Mr.. Briacoe and AIr.
everybody else to reuounce our besetting SIN"
Mr.. Brjscoe says that there was no mistake,
because it was his intention to write Our
but then he should have inserted two on three
words more, and the mistake lay in emitting
them. For example, the sentence would have
been quite correct thus 1T is therefore be-
coming in all of as, Mr.. Paul, MIR. Briscoe
and MI. every body else, to renouneo Our be-
setting SIN This would have been according
tousage; but in thesentence as it stands, our
should certainly have been "their.'
Rhetoric is defined as the artof spaakjng with
prapriety, elegance and force. If we 60 against
general usage we create y sense Of awkward
ness and thus destroy all elegance and lessen
the force. Rhetoric and grammar occupy
d ~ffcrent, though adjoining, fields, and it is
not easy to see in what sense the former
can be called a superior authority" to the
latter.-ED. ST.. CRo1x AVIS.
