When we contemplate it, how wonderful
la a voice, and It Influence upon the life
within. All life sneaks throuxn a voice.
All animals have their elfrnal codes Uons
In Afrtra hunt In concert, and signal to
each other aa they tighten the cordon
about their game, fllrda woo each other
to mating, with aoft tender voices and
Cream Wltn alarm When an enemy p
proachea. But vastly above these la the human
voice. la It true that it baa come to It
present form of partial perfection during
the long cyclee of time because of a grow
ing consciousness within for the weed of 4
better medium of communication? In the
process of Ite development we cannot ay
how far the struggling soul shsvel its
Organs of expression, or If tho perfection
of the organ gave new capacity to the
soul. Wpencer say:
"Of eoul the body form doth take
For eoul II form and doth the body
make."
If theee etrlklng worda be true, what
a vaat field for reflection they furniart.
How wonderful It ur to think, that at any
moment our Intellect, our emotione, our
will, can eetaMieh themrelvei at our vocal
Ohorde and without the elightent heeitallnn
etnke the eaact combination they want,
and let them vlhrating to prenialy the
needed fitch, and thu bring the complex
of our Inmost aoul Into the eoul of an
other. When we meditate on thla wonder
ful fact, la It any wonder that harmony
of eound, or muiie, the eoul'e mot perfect
mode of expression, has played auch an
Important part In human life.
Even as far back ai the day of Plato
the philosophers' recognised hrtW mightily
harmony, with which the human voice h
ever been closely associated. Influenced the
oul life for good or lit.
that the shape Of hll body or the trend of
her mind dlcates. But the reason that the
fault of women are of eo much more vital
Importance la because she stand more
definitely for the Idea land the inspirational
than do men. Her faults affect the race
more than do the faulta Of men. I believe
positively that the power of womarl Is
greater than the power of men, because she
worke more delicate tools and carves more
directly upon the living flesh of humanity.
My dear girl, if I had no other purpose in
these talk of mine than "knocking" my
ex, I should be ashamed of myself.
And listen again: If you think the men
would take one glance at themselves and
run away and stay. I limply could hot
hold It Up to their fault. TOU girl have
been oourageous and remained close to
me, taking the medicine I have adminis
tered with splendid nerve. It you do truly
think the men are too cowardly to do it,
I am fearful that I have done vrong, for
t have held the glase up to them. I
don't want them to run away and leave
us. for, after all, we were made to stand
or fall together, and nothing that sepa
rates the astes Is in harmony With the big
Scheme of God and nature.
Miss Quarrelsome, the etruttlng of those
"only pebble men" Is tiring them a good deal
mora than It Is you. They will iome day
wear out with their senseless exercise and
eettle down to a more becoming and com
fortable deportment.

In his, "Republic", ristO says. By the
educated sense of harmony we learn to dis
cern between the good and the bale, the
ugly and the beautiful In all things". Rue
kin goes a step further and says. "All
great music Is of the human voice",
Again he says. "With the Orecks, the Odd
Of music wa also the God of righteous
nesl." What nato was trying to say. may b
put Sharply In this wey: We csn discover
a man' mood of eoul by the quality of
hi voice. The dramatlo reader and the
opera linger can do marvel with the voice,
but at times the voice ha a quality whicn
Is not akin to art, and depend for It
value and quality on the depths to which
the eoul behind the voice is Stirred.
Man e voice I like the other parts of hi
nature, and for the most part I employed
in doing the mind's hack work. It retail
the news of the day, discusses the question
of Interest, etc., without onoe unlocking Its
secret doors and revealing a hidden power
of marvelous interest and beauty. But at
certain times these doors do open and a
breath from within, something mysterious
and far-reaching, passea Into the tone.
One who Is accustomed to speak In public
knows full well that at times his words
come in measure, Ilk the pumping of
water, and every word seem to require
a stroke of the handle; again, he may be
uttering about the same word, but now
they seem to flow like a swift moving cur
rent and are thrilling with vibrations from
an unseen source. Each word seems to
have an overtone which I sweeter and
vastly more potent than the word Itself.
There seem to be a sort of spirit echo of
all that Is eald. But why this change?
There can be but one explanation, and that
is, that in the last Instance the man'a aoul
la stirred by the great OVereOul Which I
mightier than he.
These suggestions but teach us that the
full value of the voice cannot be utilized
till the full capabilities of the soul have
that been found.
It Is Interesting to note, as we study his
tory, the ebb and flow, as it were, of the
voloo. Sometimes everything eesme to be
reduced to the commonplace and human
speech1 everywhere reduced to a chatter.

Teople of antiquity thought that nit!1

Germans of the middle ages would not

they thought by eo doing they would put

To keep wolves from their beasts Old
Roman farmer used to eaten a wolf,
break Its legs, aprlhkle Its blood around
the farm and bury the oaicasa in the mid

floated without any appearance of swim

Unlucky days were marked by the
Romans with a piece of charcoal and lucky

It is an Old regret, frequently expressed,
that the name of Christopher Columbus
haa not been honored In the title of the
new continent he discovered and named
New Spain.
That distinction fell, however, to Amerigo
Veepuecl r, In' It Latin form, ArneHcua
Vespuclus a Florence explorer, who Wa
born on March , 1451.
HI father waa an Italian merchant and
Amerigo Vespucci waa trained for mer
cantile life. In tha pursuit of It he trav
eled In fipaln aad ether European coun
tries. He became Interested In the dls
eoverlea whlah hi fellow countryman,
Columbus, had made.
In lew, Alomo de OJeda, whe had ac
companied Celumbua on his second voy
age, fitted out an expedition of his own
te ecplore the New World. When hie four
ship sailed for the West Ildlss, en May
M of that year, Veepuecl accompanied him.
A voyage of twenty-six days brought
them tt Kouth America. They sailed along
the toast until they reached the site of the
present lty of Maracalbo, whlah they
called Venice, and from which tha name
of Venezuela was evolved.
In 1607, Veepueel published a book in
which ha deeerlbed thl and Ms three sub
sequent voyagee. It was the first publica
tion on the subject, and In It he claimed
to be the first European who had landed
on the western continent. Consequently
the new country was called America.

country which the natives called Amaiaca.
It waa this country, now Venesuela, that
