STRIVE FOR PLEASANT VOICE
No Part Of tho Personality More
Worthy Of Careful Attention and
Cultivation.

There is no power Of love 30 hard
to keep as a kind voice; but 1t is
hard to get 1t and keep 1t in the right
tone.
One must start In youth. and be on
the watch night and day, while at
work and while at play to get and
keep a voice which shall speak at all
times the thought OF kind heart
But this is the time when a sharp
voice Is more apt to be acquired. You
often hear boys and girls say words at
play with quick sharp tone, almost
like the snap OF a whip. If any OF
them get vexed you hear voice which
sounds as if 1t were made up of a
snarl, whine, and bark.
Such voice speaks worse than
the heart feels. 1t shows more III
will in tone than In words. 1t is often
in mirth that one gets voice or a
tone which is sharp. and which sticks
to him through life, and stirs up Ill
will and grief and falls like a drop OF
gall on the listener.
Some people have a sharp home
voice for us and keep their best voice
for those they meet elsewhere. We
would say: Use your best voice al
home
A kind voice Is larks song to heart
and home. 1t is to the heart what
light is to the eye.

Hard and Precarious Existence.
In seasons when the fishing is good
the average Magdalener makes suf
ficient money to supply his wants. In
poor years they sometimes suffer dire
distress. During the Great Misery
in the winter Of 1882. and again In
1897. food became so scarce that the
Canadian government was obliged to
send supplies to the islands to prevent
q famine.
The inhabitants Of the Magdalens
are completely isolated from the world
for six months In the year. In the sum.
mer small steamer subsidized by the
government plies semi-weekly between
the islands and the mainland Of Nova
Scotia. During the long winters this
service must be abandoned. and per.
sons on the island remain there un.
til the boat resumes its trips in the
spring.
The telegraph CIV them the news
that is going on In the world during
their isolation, but Of course there
can be no exchange Of letters. Some.
times this mode Of communication
fails, as in 1910, when the cable to
the mainland broke and could not be
repaired for weeks. The natives In
this instance resorted to very ancient
methods A heavy barrel containing
80 or 40 letters sealed in cans was
dropped overheard in the waters OF
the gulf and trusted to fate. Ten days
afterward the tide carried It 10 the
mainland 60 miles away and the let.
tiers were sent to their addresses. I'm.
fortunately the southern drift Of the
gulf prevented any answers from be
ing sent In reply.
