ARTIFICIAL HONEY IS COMING.

From one of those amazing. German

dread lest faint of chestnut, aspara-

GENTLE VOICE A GREAT CHARM.
One Of the Most Powerful Attractions
in Woman.

Very few women realize what an
effect a sweet voice has on man.
A woman may be very pretty to look
upon, may be faultlessly and bewitch-
ingly attired and attractive in every
way. and yet directly she opens her
mouth and speaks the spell is broken,
the charm is gone. And this neei
never be.
Very few voices are so naturally
bad that They will not succumb to
training. and the voice can be trained
to be just as sweet and gentle as one
pleases To make II.
A woman should speak in low
voice. She should not allow her
voice to raise itself to a high pitch.
A shrill-voiced woman is terrible
She should not shout her orders to
the servants down the stairs. nor call
to any one who may be in another
part of the house This shouting and
raising of the voice spoils the tone
and quality of the voice and tends to
make it harsh. A pretty voice is a
powerful attraction in woman and
she who would add to her charms a
wondrous fascination should cultivate
voice ever soft, gentle and low

Why Snow Is White,

The reason that snow is white is that
all the elementary colors are blended
together in the radiance that is thrown
on from the surface of the crystals,
which may be examined in such way
as to detect these colors before they
are mingled together to give the eye
the impression OF Wilderness.
The Wilderness OF the snow Is also
in some degree referable to the guam
tity OF air which is left among the
frozen particles. Considerably more
than thousand distinct forms of
snow crystals have been enumerated.
These minute crystals and prisms re-
fleet all the compound rays OF which
white light onsists.-ChicagO Trib-

Irksome for Both Parties.

A long friendship and short en-.

the most trying relationship between
the sexes possible to conceive. For
the woman it means the drawbacks of
matrimony without the charm of rest
full finality, or any of matrimony's
solid worldly advantages. On the
mans side it means the irksomeness

As State Conventions Are Held
