pale, with a bandage around his head,
and the nurse at his heels threatening
to leave and carrying a bottle Of med

In about fifteen minutes there was

The Worth Of the Voice.

How wonderful is the human voice!
It Is indeed the organ of the soul!
The intellect Of man sits enthroned
visibly upon his forehead and in his
eye, and the heart of man Is written
upon his countenance. But the soul
reveals itself in the voice only; as
God revealed himself to the prophet Of
old in the still, small voice, and in
the voice from the burning bush. The
soul of man is audible, not visible. A
sound alone betrays the flowing OF the
eternal fountain. invisible to man

Here everything was in the utmost
confusion. Aunt Selma had tainted,

her head rolled over sidewise and the
poker from the library fireplace
across her knees. No one was paying
any attention to her. And Jim was
holding the front door open, while
three Of the guards hesitated in the
vestibule. The noises continued from

on the lowest stair Bella came out
from the dining room. with her face

kettle of hot water.
