Fellow-Beings.
In that simple and beautiful recoed
of a holy life, the Journal of Jon
Woolman, there is a passage of which
I have been more than once remindsd
in my intercourse with my fellow-
beings: “Some glances of real beauty
may be seen In their faces who dwell
in true meckness. There is a diviae
harmony In the sound of that volce to
which divine Love gives utterance.”
Quite the ugliest face I ever saw Was
that of a woman whom the world calls
beautiful. . . . On the other hand,
there are faces which the multitude at
the first glance pronounce homely, un-
attractive, and such as “pature fash-
fons by the gross,” which I always rec-
ognize with a warm heart-thrill; not
for the world would I have one fest-
ure changed; they please me as (hey
are; they are hallowed by kind memo
ries: they are beautiful through thelr
associations ; nor are they any the less
welcome that with my admiration of
them “the stranger intermeddieth not.”
~-Whittier.
Merely Changed Music.
How bands were once sometimes re-
eruited for the navy is suggested by
an old tale of maritime warfare. When
the frigate United States captured the
British frigate Macedonian, about a
hundred years ago, it also captured a
hand of eight French, German and
Italian musicians, The band had first
put to in a French frigate, which
ptured by a Portuguese vessel
brought inte Lisbon. There the
musicians had been persuaded to en-

Variation of Dialects,
Dialects of variation in spoken’ lan
punges are the result of peculiarities
of speech, first involuntarily adopted
by Individuals and then perpetuated
and extended by the unconscious imi-
tation of others, "They are not pre-
meditated or assignable to any definite
ecatige, except the constant tendency
of language to become diversified. The
game causes that have prodaced differ

tend to produce dialectic variations in
the language of every nation, The
results are apparent, but the eause
