The lLarynx.

The larynx has been compared to a
wind, a reed and a stringed instru-
ment. The comparison of it to a violin
gave rise to the not very accurate
phrase vocal chords" as the name of
the two cushions which are it's most
prominent features. But no string so
short as those vocal chords could pro-
duce q musical bass note. In fact, the
comparison of the larynx to any instru-
ment which produces only musical
tones Is inadequate to begin with.
There is no instrument but the larynx
which produces both song and speech,
and as those comparisons view the
larynx merely as a producer of mu-
steal sounds we have no further con-
Germ with them at present. Besides,
the voice can be trained for speech,
elocution and oratory without a knowl-
edge of the physiology of the larynx.
We have the power of adjusting the
larnyx, of varying the tension of its
cords, cushions or ligaments, as they
have been v~ariously called. We a
do these things without scientific tech
nical knowledge of how they are done,
without any knowledge at all of vocal
physiology, and 1t is the work Of the
trainer of the voice to teach the pupils
how to do them.-Chambers' Journal.

had stumbled on a quaint village far
from the haunts of fashion. In sim
pie gowns and with her hair in braids
she rejoiced at the freedom from dress
and social routine that had been her
portion all winter. In her Bingham
s%unbonnet she might have passed for
the daughter of a farmer, and for the
moment Guy Paulton took her to be
such when he came upon her in the
little woodland where Edith spent most
of her time. Her back was turned to
him as he parted the bushes and tram
pied down the ferns.
Edith started at the sound of his
voice, but promptly drew the all con
cealing bonnet down in front and man
aged to stammer IN answer to his
question If she had seen any soldiers
about.
For the first time she noticed that
he was in uniform, and she immedi-
ately realized that the rough service
dress was most becoming. Paulton
was built in heroic mold, and, though
he looked well in the conventional
dress of a man of fashion, the heavy
blue shirt, open to display his fine
throat, and tight fitting riding trousers
emphasized the good lines Of his pow
erfully muscled figure.
Edith shook her head.

been no soldiers about" he asked
again, mo chaps in brown uniform?"
Haven't seen any," denied Edith in
nasal tones. you're the first soldier
I've seen since the county fair. Is it

Gently.
"Of course" was the impatient reply.

Story Telling Parties.

Now comes the revival of the lost
art of telling stories, not jokes or anec-
dotes, but thrilling satires which mean
a monologue for twenty to thirty min
utes. From the great country homes
Of England the revival comes. Girls
who want to make a social success
are taking lessons from elocution-
lists In order to tell a story with
proper spirit and not too much tone
and gesture. Mrs. Payne Whitney is
among the young matrons who have
been training for story telling. Her
supply has been drawn from the folk
lore Of the south seas, a region which
she studied closely when preparing her
most ambitious work, 'The Rose of
Dawn" Nearly all these legends are
a bit blood curdling. Mrs. Jack Gard
ner Of Boston, who never does things
by halves, has been learning a great
assortment of Egyptian tales which are
warranted to make the hair stand on
end. Society likes new sensations, and
these thrillers will produce them.

THE RIGHT THREAD.
Rules Governing the Use of Flo En-
broidery Silk.

S
Embroiderers are often at a loss to
know whether to use a single or double
thread when working in flo silks.
The rules hat govern the use of the
single or double thread are based upon
the general principle that the finer and
more delicate the work and material
the finer should be the thread.
Thus on sheer handkerchief linen or
null or for a very small design IN a
heavier fabric use a single thread of
flo throughout; otherwise the work
will look rough and coarse.
Sometimes indeed the thread is split
for the shading in the center to give q
more delicate effect. This. however, is
rarely necessary. 1t is a fairly safe
rule for large designs or heavy mate
rails to use two thyeads of flo, at least
for the outer edges. Frequently the
entire flower is lone In the double silk,
but quite as often the outer portions
and the foliage are worked with the
two strands, while for the shading to-
ward the center the single thread is
used. This treatment gives both
greater richness and depth to the work,
besides filling more rapidly, always a
desideratum in an intricate piece of
embroidery.
In using two strands Of silk it is
important to thread the needle prop
erly. Do not fold over a single thread
in the eye, as 1t will cause the silk to
twist. rouQhen and cut. Instead. draw
out from the skein two threads Of ex-
actly the same length and thread the
needle with both together.

PaultOn'
Prisoner.
BY eO. F.. Bryan.
Copyrighted, 1905. by Associated
Literary Press.

Absurd as it may seem, Edith Nor
timer had run away from happiness.
Realizing that Guy Paulton was de-
termlned to marry her, she had looked
into the commanding eyes and survey
ed the determined chin and had fled
in a panic to the mountains after art
fully announcing that she was bound
for the shore.
This was not because she did not
want to marry Paulton. To the con-
trary, the prospect thrilled her with
tender delight, but what she did want
was another social season without ties
of any sort. She did not want to retire
to the ranks of engaged girls and wall
flowers after only one years triumph
as the belle of the season.
Guy, on the contrary, seemed deter
mined to be married at once, and as a
last resort she had fed to escape his
proposal. From babyhood Guy had had
a masterful way, and Edith knew that
II she stopped to argue she was lost.
Her old chum, Belle Manton, who
was going to Beach Haven, forwarded
Edith's mail and otherwise helped to
maintain the polite but obvious fiction.
Loyalty she strove to protect her
friends secret, and, though Pnulton al
ternately begged and threatened, he
could gain no hint of Edith's where
abouts. Edith smiled at the desperate
letters he wrote, but she carefully
saved them In her little rosewood trav-
cling desk, and could Paulton have
seen the tender light In her eyes as she
reread them in the quiet of the sum
mer nights he would have been on
tent. The trouble was that Paulton
could not see, and he was putting in a
most uncomfortable summer.
Oddly enough, Edith was really en-
joying her runaway vacation. She

A VERY PRETTY LETTER.
The Story of Byron's Proposal to Miss
Milbanke.

'
Milbanke.
Byron's proposal to his wife, Miss
Milbanke, was made after sordid dis
cussion and study and lacked all i'm
pulse. Lady Melbourne, who stood in
his confidence, observing how cherries
and unsettled his mind and prospects
were, strenuously advised him to mar
ry. She suggested a certain lady, but
Lord Byron fancied the idea of marry
ing Miss Milbanke.
NO." said Lady Melbourne; "Miss
Milbanke will not suit you. In the first
place, she has no fortune now, and you
want money Immediately. In the next
place, you want a person who will
have great admiration for your genius;
she has too great an admiration for
herself"
"Well," said Byron, las you please"
And, sitting down, he wrote a letter
to the lady recommended by Lady Mel
bourne. He received a refusal.
Nov, you see." said he, miss Mil
hanke is to be the person, after all. l
will write to her."
AS soon as he had finished his friend,
still demonstrating, read the note and
observed:
"Well really, this is a very pretty
letter. 1t is a pity it should not 60"
"Then it shall CO." exclaimed Byron.
And, SO saying, he sealed and sent the
fat of his unhappy fate.
