PRESIDENT TAFT AND THE PRO
POSED MARYLAND ccNsTi
TUITION.

President Taft has been quoted az
donouncing the new constitution pro-
messed for the state OF Maryland py
the Democrats on the ground that !,
violates the spirit OF the hiteen,n
amendment TO the constitution OF the
Irnited States. Furthermore, the
President is said to have extended
his denuuciation to any effort to de-
priye the negro of his vote because
of his cclor.
While the proposed Maryland con-
stitution many not have been as care
fully drawn as those which are IN
effect In other Southern states and
which have solved the negro proba-
3lv temporarily, at least, no one
knows better than the President that
one of the principle objects Of the
Suffrage clauses in the constitutions
of Virginia and other States is to dis
franchise the negro. There Is no use
denying this, for all of us know that
II is the truth. II the constitution
as II is drawn failed to accomplish
the object. We would devise. other
means.
OF course we cannot expect Presi-
dent Taft to publicly endorse the
course Of the states which have de-
priyed the "colored bfother" OF his
vote. But he might say as little
about II as possible.

HAVE YOU A CONVERSATIONAL
" *: VOICE? .**>
VOICE?

- CONVERSATIONS in this TWEEN
tteth century are spoiled by
\ two defects, both to be at
~ tributed to the hurry -scurry
Of our mode of living. One serious de-
feet consists in slipshod method of
pronunciation and in. the clipping, of
words. We slide one word into an
other, we talk Of the "dic' for die
tionary, and we are constantly on the
outlook for extravagant' SMILES and
new expressions that are not always
Ineligible. The second defect is in
the articulation and the tone of the
voice.. We speak In one tone very
frequently, and there is no difference
whatever to express the varying sem
tfments which pass through JUS. We
also speak too loudly, or .else we go to
the other extreme and, in the words of
a. popular play, 1--WE humble our
words"
The hest way to acquire a pleasant
conversational voice is to listen to
some one who has cultivated CONVEX
sational style. The voice will be mod
ulated.. You can tell by the changes
in the tone whether the speaker is say
ing something amusing, disagreeable,
horrifying, adnonitory or commenda-
tory. There is no need either to hear
the words, or to see the. face. to gain
an, idea OF the subject talked about be-
cause the voice says it all literally and
f1guratively. The tone, too, is pleasing.
It is not strident, nor does the speaker

almost motionless lips, The articula-

music Of the. voice. ii |:
Women should be. better conversa-
tfonalists than mem from the voice
point of view. It is usually believed
that the mustache impedes the speech:
it renders it less distinct, and you VEIN
notice that many clever lawyers,
clergymen and others whose. vocation
demands constant and distinct talking
shave off: the mustache. Women are
naturally free from these impediments.
Furthermore, a woman's voice Is by
nature softer than that of man. It
is a woman's duty to exercise a ref1n-
ing and soften1ng influence, and one
way to carry out that duty is to culti-
vate a conversational style of talking
