Look Up When Speaking.

II don't talk half as much as you
do" said the preacher to the lawyer,
"yet your voice holds out twice as long
as mine. Why is it?'
The lawyer said he couldn't tell.
"The difference in the position of
your head when you are talking ex-
plains it, said the elocutionist. "a
preacher looks down upon his congre-
cation, a lawyer looks up to the judge.
That dropping of the head cramps the
vocal cords and makes the preachers
voice more difficult to preserve than
that of any other professional man."

When the timid colonial clergymen
were afraid to criticise Aaron Burr's
treason they asked Lorenzo Dow what
he thought of Burr's meanness. He
raised both hands like great V and
shouted: aaron Burr mean! Why, I
could take the little end of nothing
whitfield down to a point, punch out
the pith of hair and put in 10000
such traitor souls as his, shake 'em up,
and they'd rattle"
