king's English with esao and accuracy,
is a possession which lends a grace to
the most humble. Ever since the trib-'
ute of poor, distracted Lear to his dead
Cordelia, the voice "soft, ' gentle and
low" has been esteemed "an excellent
thing In woman," and to-day there is
especial timeliness In a plea for the
refined voice, not only In women of
gentle breeding, but in those who, far
and wide in this great land behind
counter and in kitchen and on the
street shriek and yell at a helpless,
suffering public. There Is often, If not
alwnys, some sort of an examination
by which it Is sought to test the fitness
of girls who wish to be clerks or wait
resses; but no one ever thinks, to ask
one question which ought to be asked:
"Is It pleasant to hear you speak?"

In a voice so pleasing that her custom
ers are sure to buy more than they
need. But only" a few steps from her
counter, the ticket seller at a subway
station keeps crying, "One dollar!"
"Twenty-five cents!" "Fifty cents!" In
a voice so nasal, harsh and penetrating
that It offends every sensitive ear and
affronts every patron of gentle spirit.
For any public servant whether man
or .woman a gentle voice and a gra
cious manner are worth advancement
The tone and air which give uncon
scious pleasure are all too rare among
hurrying Americans: but where they
no exist they are a precious possession.
A waitress in a railroad restaurant,

One of the most successful of modern
techers writes, "For ages people have
realized that the boy baa a mind to
educate. Only recently have we awak
ened to the fact that he has a body to
aeveiop ana a character to form. A
fine mind in a puny body Is a deDlora-
ble combination; When it is allied to
a weak or unprincipled character the
situation is far worse; and no plan of
education Is complete which does not
seek persistently and systematically to
develop in everv hnv rhamMo .n,i
