THE PLEASING VOICE A T NO period of our existence does the pleasing voice with its Intonations and lucid articulations fail to win an audience and respect. There is a compelling charm in Its accent, its deliberative sweetness and Irreenunciation which is conor sistible, whether it praises demns a carrying, impressive quality which sways the hearers at will. And yet with all the subtle power Invested in the organs of speech, men and women In their oral Intercourse with one another are habitually careless. They have a few set words and phrases which go round and round their dial of conversation like the hands of the clock, incapable of doing anything else, or of stirring a single new pleasurable emotion. Such voices narrow and dampen the spirit of expectant hearers until they wish they could go suddenly deaf or vanish In the air. Whether the rasping discords come from the lips of vestals or scullions. thu-sic- well-nig- al h THE tflTCHEN YOUR FRIEND YOURSELF WALKER ' the effect produced is always creepy" and depressing to the refined. And this would seem to show the importance of a pleasing voice at the fireside, the desk, behind the counter, everywhere, in fact where tired ears are pausing on for a soothing nervsound to assuage their pent-u- p ousness. If you would succeed beyond the mediocre, you will find that it behooves you to cultivate the pleasing voice, not one that is marked by afatfection, but by sweet tuned to discriminating and delicately adjusted ears accustomed to pure accent and undue emphasis. Nothing is more destructive to a salesmans success than a loud, coarse and brazen enunciation, with a touch of authoritative command in every vowel and aspirate. And this applies not only to the salesman but to every man and woman In all walks of life, and especially to those who are dependent on others for a livelihood. The discriminating employer nntu-rall- y gives preference to him or her who habitually uses a pleasing voice in company with a kindly smile and courteous manners, in all kinds of weather and in ail sorts of business. tip-to- e soul-strai- by McClure Newspaper Syndicate.)

"Moo, moo, she repeated, wbat has been the trouble? My dear, said Miss Cow, I had a whiff of that horrible weed called Sneezeweed. And I also had a chew of those bitter leaves. It got into my food somehow. I was chewing it before I noticed. Anyway I took on as they say most dreadfully. I was miserable. Oh, such huteful, bitter leaves. Such horrid sneezing stuff. Some of It must have been quite dry. It was down along the stream that Ii happened. It upset me, I can tell you. Some one said another name for the wretched flowers was that of Swamp Sunflower I suppose because the flower heads are of yellow. But I wasnt noticing wlint I was ami entkig. I was just all. Oh dear, oh dear, moo, moo, dear me, it was a dreadful experience. Yes, I can Imngine it was, said Mrs. Cow. I dont menn to full to give you my sympathy, but really, Miss Cow, I am quite surprised at you. No matter how much a cow does she should be careful not to eat those bitter leaves. She shouldnt let such a thing I cant think how you hnppen. could have been so stupid. said Miss Cow. Now, Mrs. Cow, "you are my elder, and no doubt, lu many ways, my superior.

Oliver Goldsmith was born In Ireland in 1728. llis father, pastor of a small church, earned lirely enough to support his little family, but succeeded in sending his son to Trinity college, Dublin. In 1749, shoftly after his fathers death. Goldsmith left college and prepared to enter the ministry. lie was about to enter the clergy when the Bishop of Elpliin, who was his examiner, refused to pass him probably because of his knowledge of the youths wildness. Goldsmith now became tutor to a wealthy family, but soon lost thlspo-sitio- n through a dispute with the master of the house over a game of cards. Following this episode he was ready to sail for America when he changed his mind and allowed the boat to sail without him. llis uncle came to his rescue and gave him 50 pounds, about $250, with which to go to Dublin and study law. lie went to Dublin, but never studied law there as lie lost the money his uncle had given him in gambling. Despite his repeated imprudences, he was again rescued by his uncle and sent to Edinburgh to study medicine. Here he remained for 18 months and acquired some knowledge of medicine, but never took a degree. From there he went to Leyden, where he continued his studies at the expense of his uncle. His best known works, The Vicar of Wakefield and The Deserted Village achieved Instant popularity, and brought him a considerable return. He hesitated a long while before accepting his royalty of $500 for the Deserted Village for fear that the publisher would not make sufficient to cover his expenses! Goldsmith died in London, April 4, 1774, in debt more than but the best loved literary man of his generation. Wayne D. McMurray. $10,-00- 0 ( by George Matthew Adams.) MEATLESS DINNERS ) HOT WEATHER DISHES Fish, being ensily digested, and with our quick transportation and refrigeration, available in almost any inland city of any size, makes an ideal summer food.

When such combinations Lave been found to disagree they should be avoided, but the average person may indulge in lobster and eat ice cream with no ill effects. Next to salmon and tuna comes the snrdine in popularity. The true sardine is not found In American waters. Millions of cans are Imported from Spain, Iorttigal nnd Scandinavian countries.
