MUSIC’S MIGHTY REALM.
In It There la but n Single and Vni*
veranl Speech.
“In the mighty realm of music there
is but oue single speech.” Music forms
the universal language which, when all
other languages were confounded, the
coufusion of Babel left unconfounded.
The white man and the black man, the
red man and the yellow man, can sing
together, however difficult they may
find it to be to talk to each other. And
both sexes and all ages may thus ex
press their emotions simultaneously,
for in vii ie of the power of the ear to
distinguish side by side those differing
but concordant notes which make up
harmony there is not only room, but
demand, for all the qualities of voice
which childhood, adolescence, maturity
and old age supply. Thus a love of
music is much more frequent than a
love of painting or sculpture, and you
will reach the hearts and touch the
feelings of the majority of mankind
more quickly by singing them a song
than by showing them a picture. In
truth, the sensitiveness of the ear to
melody and to harmony is so great that
we not only seek to gratify it when
bent upon recreation, but even in the
midst of the hardest labor we gratify
it if we can.—London Catholic Times.
