The Trained Voice.

Lawyers. clergymen and doctors all
fail to secure the influence with the
people with whom they come in con-
tact because of inability to express
their thoughts in an impressive way.
Had the voice been trained the same
as the eye and the intellect, had the
exterior qualities been trained to ex-
press like the voice the best and the
clearest facts. they would all have been
successes. The melOdious voice of
Henry Clay always charmed his au-
dience everywhere. Wherever he went
people t1ocked to hear him. while the
heavy bass tones of Daniel Webster
failed to attract and actually drove
people away. They preferred to read
what he had to say, but wanted per-
sonally to hear Clay's pleasing voice

DICKENS AS He WAS IN 1885
Interesting Description of Great
Writer Published in the knicker-
booker of That Year.

In person he is a little above the
standard height, though not tall. His
figure is slight, without being meagre,
and is we'll proportional. The face,
that first object of physical interest, is
peculiar, though not remarkable An
ample forehead is displayed under a
quantity of light hair, worn in a mass
On one side rather jauntily, and this
is the only semblance Of dandyism
IN his appearance. His brow is
marked, and his eye, though not large,
is bright and expressive. The most
regular feature is the nose, which
may be called handsome; an epithet
not applicable to his lips, which are
too large. Taken altogether, the
countenance, which IS pale without
sickness, is in repose extremely
agreeable and indicative Of great re-
f1nement and intelligence.
Mr.. Dickens manners and conversa-
ton, except perhaps in the perfect
abandon among his familiars, have no
exhibition of particular wit, much less
of humor. He is mild in the tones of
his voice, and quiescent, evincing
habitual attention to etiquette and the
conVentionalisms Of polished circles
His society is much sought after, and,
possibly to avoid the invitations press
ed upon him, he does not reside in
London, but with a lovely wife and
two charming children occupies a re-
treat-in the vicinity. He is shout 26
years of age, but does not look more
than % or "a. Mr.. Dickens is en-
tirely self-made, and rose from an
humble station by virtue of his moral
worth, his genius and his industry

ONCE THE HOME OF AUDUBON
Beautiful Mansion Where Great Natur-
alist Died Is Now a New
York Tenement.

In a dismal hollow, at the foot Of
One Hundred and Fifty-eighth street,
New York, overlooking the Hudson is
a great square house that looks as
II 1t ought to be haunted-and per-
haps it is. It was once magnificent.
Its lawns were perfect and it's foun-
tains played in the sunlight On
every side Of it were other handsome
homes, and all the owners were
friends of long standing Now the
granite wall of Riverside drive almost
cuts into the roof of this fine old
mansion. Italian laborers live in. it
and unkempt babies sprawl upon its
porches. A giant apartment house
towers over it and only the rays Of
the western sun ever reach it's
windows.
1t is the old horne of John James
Audubon, the American naturalist,
which he purchased in 1912 and lived
in for some years with his sons
Victor and John and their families.
He died there in 1851 and was buried
in Trinity cemetery, near the woods
that formed part of his estate and
which were later called Audubon
park. For five or six years Audubon
park has been but a memory, only a
few dilapidated homes remaining in
hollow hemmed in by modern
bureaus where people live in the
drawers"
