The Neglected Voice.

The voice is the most common and at
the same time the most complex of hu-
man faculties. When we listen to it,
we realize nothing of the many infiu-
ences at work in its use. Yet it repre-
sents the character, the mood, the tenn
permanent and the health of the iIfdivid-
uaI when left to run in its own way.
If uncontrolled, it will develop much as
q flower garden will develop; the rank
and weedy nature Will come to the
front. and the tones of exquisite beau
ty viii be obscured. Bad daily habits
in the use of the voice will give it
many disagreeable qualities. If con-
trolled, the voice willrkeep its weeds in
the background and permit only its
beauties to be known. If cultivated,
the weeds will be taken out and the
flowers MISUNDERSTANDING Press.

8 A traveller in the west, the Rev. G. T..
Brady, says that of all the manifesto
;tions of power he ever witnessed, from
an earthquake down, a cyclone is the
most appalling. The midnight black
ness of the funnel, the lightning dart
ing from 1t in uncomfortable fierceness,
the strange cracking sound from its
bosom, the suddenness of its irresisti-
BILE attack, its incredibly swift motion,
its wild leaping and bounding, like a
gigantic beast of prey, the awful roar
which follows, all this but feebly char
acterizes that strange rayager of the
plains. He continues:
The cyclone plays odd pranks. i
ihaye seen two horses lifted in air and
carefully deposited, unframed. in a
neld about an eighth of a mile away.
1 have seen chickens and geese picked
clean of feathers and yet feebly alive.
One house, / remember, had hole
ten feet in diameter cut out of its roof,
as If by a circular saw. / have seen
the black, whirling cloud lift build
ing and shake it to pieces, as one
shakes a pepper box One of the
worst cyclones 1 ever knew threw a
heavy iron safe about as child might
toss a wooden alphabet block in play.
1t is an irresponsible as well as an
almost omnipotent monster, and it
seems to love the hideous jokes Of its
own connecting.

The Boston Transcript says that Bos-

very quarter where Paul Revere lived
and whence he bore the message of
the belfry. The Old North square rip
pies with the color and music of for
eign faces and tongues. The Old North
church itself cannot. have far to go
to neighbor with Franciscan chapels
and Roman Catholic cathedrals, the
whole medley of a foreign world usurp-
ing that place where once Puritanism
reigned supreme.
They say that the Boston Italians are
very thrifty, that from being good rent
payers they are becoming notable prop
erty buyers. They are music loving
and art loving people. go to the
Museum of Fine Arts on the free days
and see these same Italians, in their
rags and hobnail shoes, men. women
and children, standing before the finest
things in the gallery and appreciating
them
And that sight reminds writer in
The Transcript Of shabby cabman
in Florence who always carried his
Gerusalemma Liberata in his coat
pocket and whose passion was for the
preservation of the Italian tongue in
it's purity, "as only the Siennese now
preserve 1t, signorina.'

tells this yarn" to illustrate that
Jacks habit of grumbling can't be
cured and must be endured:
Once upon time there lived skip

went to sea the poor men would never
find fault with their food. Her hus-
band took her with him on a voyage,
and the good woman attended to the
cooking in the galley herself
The scouse was thick with fresh veg

She took them out of the coop, wrung
their necks with her own fair hands,
plucked them, roasted them and sent
them to the forecastle on the cabin
china.
Now the men," she said to herself,
will know how much we think of their
comfort"
At eight bells she stole forward to
the forecastle to listen to the praise of
her skill as cook. She looked down
the hatch and saw a big black fist
plunge fork into the hen and heard a

Trying Donkey.

A newcomers in Africa has many
surprises. a. B. Lloyd, the author of
''Dwarf Land and Cannibal Country"
narrates an amusing little experience
of his own in purchasing donkey in
Zanzibar:
We had to procure donkeys, by no
means an easy task. OF course each
one had to be tried, as we were to use
them for riding purposes. and In the
course of the work we had various ex-
periences. had set my mind upon a
fine female. donkey and took her out
for an, afternoons ride. 1 shall not
forget it. At first when 1 mounted her
she would not move, in spite OF all
my most tender persuasions, and final
ny she began to back.
Now, the streets of Zanzibar are very
narrow, and coming up behind me was
a large bullock wagon My sweet tenn
pered donkey backed right on to the
horns of the bullocks. Then it was no
longer case of making her go, but Of
making her stop.
Away she few, right along the Naza
Moja road, and nothing 1 could do
would check her headlong career. In
fact, soon tired of trying and let her
10. On she went, right in among the
.cocoanut trees, regardless of every
thing until she came 10 steep bank.
Here she stopped. This showed that
she had good sense, and decided to
keep her.

..rhe Devil,. ruinip p.tch.-

/ On the top of Bald Eagle mountain,
Just where the old turnpike breaks
over the brow down into Black Hole
valley, Is a queer field of rock, which,
years ago was christened .s,The Devils
Turnip Patch.'' The rocks, which are
of reddish sandstone, have a striking
popularity of all standing on end, thus
forming a jagged, irregular surface,
that won for It its queer name from
the early settlers.
In bygone days, when the stages
wheeled their way up from Northum-
berland to Williamsport, the four in
hands trayersed the old pike that skirts
the turnip patch. and the strange gar
den of rocks was a constant source Of
wonderment to the traveller Added
to its interest as a natural curiosity is
a hidden stream Of water somewhere
beneath the standing stones, the noisy
flowing of which forms a romantic
song beneath ones feet. Nobody
knows where the source of this stream
is. nor can anybody find where it emp
ties itself into Black Hole valley.
The rock field covers an area of two
or three acres, with its widest part to
the north, then narrowing down "
shaped to the south, where the angle
is lost in a fringe of -stunted hemlocks
and elders. Theorists have figured on
the cause of this mountain freak, but
the theory obtaining most credence is
that it is a legacy Of the glacial age.
