Mr.. Voight raised himself stiffiy and
went in chase of the hat.
When he brought 1t back. she was
still laughing.

freezing. "And l am happy to tell you
that the hat has escaped injury. Your
anxiety about it was quite remarkable.

Her laughter had died away, and she
bent toward him contriteiy. "Forgive

Then wave of indignation flooded

dated the Famous StentOr.
The question has often been asked,
"Nvho was the most loud voiced man
of history" The answer usually is
that it was Stcntor. of whom Homer
says his voice was as loud as that of
fifty other men combined and from
which we get the phrase "stentorian
voiced" Eut we have record Of two
historic "shrickcrs" anterior to Homer.
We read where Simeon and Levi fought
against the twelve men of the city of
Sarton and that Levi beheaded one
man with his own sword. In chapter
3S verse Al. of the book referred to the
story is related in the following words:
"And the sons of Jacob seeing that
they could not prevail over the twelve.
Simeon gave loud and tremendous
shrek, and the eleven remaining men
were stunned by the awful Shrek"
In chapter 30, same book, verse 10.
we find the following account of the
battles of the sons Of Jacob with the
inhabitants of the city of Gaash. II
seems rs though the battle was both in
the front and I'm the rear and that the
warriors on the wall were throwing
spears and hurting stones upon the
Sons of Jacob. What next occurred. rs
related in chapter and verse above
cited. is recorded in these words:
And Judah, seeing that the men of
Gaash were getting too heavy for
them. gave Il piercing and tremendous
shrek. and all the men of Gaash were
terrified at Judahs cry. and men fell
from the wall at the sound of his pow
erful shrek, and all those that were

city were greatly afraid Of their lives
