FAULT IN AMERICAN VOICE
Touch of Harmony Does Not Seem to
Be There, as 1t Is With Other
Races.

The American voice lacks cadence.
The touch of harmony is lacking. In
depth or shrillness, its strongest quail
ity is monotony of tone
In conversation it is colorless, and
half of the resources of the vocal
cords are unused or undeveloped. A
strident, high-pitched, nasal voice fails
in saying any good thing we'll
Every one has the power of speak
ing with sweet infection. Every one
can attain reposeful utterance and
clear enunciation by training the ear
and voice to work together in avoid
ing harsh tones, and cultivating the
middle and more mellow register in
every voice.
Excitement sends it up to a scream
ing pitch, but self-control will lower it
again, and it's playground should be
through the varying harmonies or ca
dence of five notes.
According to Thomas Wentworth
Higginson, our English cousins put
more cadence, more up and down, into
an inquiry, What time is it?" than
Americans would into the announce
ment that a president was shot. A
crowd of baseball fans will pitch the
cheering on high note and yell itself
hoarse. In the same number of Euro
peans, the shouting would be full of
undertones and cadences. They would
sing their enthusiasm.

CUTE STRONG ON ECONOMY
Of Course, These Remarks May Never
Have Been Made, but Here They
Are, Anyway.

"Do you know, I'm getting so
don't care for eggs any more. Honest,
used to like them for breakfast, but
now l don't care whether l ever get

without them, I assure you"
Sometimes my mother says: Why
don't you use more butter on your
bread?' She thinks l ought to eat a
lot of it, but l don't. Besides, what's
the use of eating lot of something
you don't care particularly for, espe
cially when it's expensive?"
People, l think, would be whole
lot better off if they ate less meat.
l used to think that meat was a neces-
sity, but | don't any more. Why,
could get along on about a pound of
beefsteak a week. l think it's all
ridiculous nonsense, paying such aw-
full prices for meat"
Isn't it fierce the way some girls
and women want to deck themselves
out in furs? They look positively bar
barous with the heads of animals
hanging on all over them. Wearing
of fur is a relic of barbarism anyway,
SO l think. A good warm cloth coat

married people get so worried every
year over the price of coal Coal is
going up all the time, l know; but
people always get a lot more of it
than they really need. Nearly every
house you go into is overheated, and
the people suffer in consequence If
l were housekeeping I'd buy just as
little coal as possible, and then use
it sparingly, so that the folks in the
house with me would have some
chance of keeping healthy. Brook

DOES THE WORK OF CEMENT
Substitute Used In Turkey Has Been
Found to Give Really Excellent
Results.

Cement is almost unknown in the
vicinity of Harput, Turkey. There an
excellent substitute has been found
that has met with rather good results
when applied in exposed places, in fill
ing crevices in water pipes, covering
joints in stone floors, in fountains and
for numerous other purposes where
cement would be required. The mix
ture is as satisfactory in water as in
exposed places, but it must be allowed
to become thoroughly dry before it is
submerged
The mixture is slaked lime, linseed
oil and cotton fiber. Generally hol-
fiat, hard surface will answer and the
process Is started by pouring the oil
on handful of cotton, after which the
lime is busted in. 1t is then kneaded

ticularly attractive to the farmers in

Judoment by Faith.

Judge not by deeds and things, take
the good heart and the good motive
on trust. Believe in it, affirm it.
To affirm thing is literally to make
it firmer. To glorify the good self of
another is to set going the machinery
by which goodness manifests.
When others believe us good, or
wise, or lovely, we catch the vibration
by thought transference and begin to
believe in ourselves as true, beautiful
and good. And whatsoever things we
believe in we think upon, and we be-
come like that which we think upon
Also we act accordingly.
If you want to see beauty in this
world just believe in those about you.
