And so we were seeing a new thing on the stage, rendered by actors who seemed, for the most part, scarcely actors at all, but the real peasants; and, above all, there was a woman of genius, the leader of the company, who was much more real than reality. Mimi Aguglia has studied Duse, for her tones, for some of her attitudes; her art is more nearly the art of Réjane.

Then a voice that she recognized even in its low, whispering tones spoke and arrested the words on her lips. It said: "Fabe! Fabe! is that you?" "Yes. Is all quiet?" "Yes; and has been so for hours. Come in. Pass around, feeling by the wall until you reach the sofa. If you attempt to cross the room, you may strike a chair or table and make a noise, as I did."

A severe, space-filling design in three tones or four will place the student in a position of confidence to proceed with detail which, until the design has settled well into its four sides, should be persistently excluded. It may, however, be found that the essence of certain subjects lies in a small item of detail. This, when known, must be allowed for in the design. Line

The song I loved best to hear him sing was Schubert's "Erl-King," which thrilled me with a sense of terror and mystery and made me tremble like a harp-string in response to his piercingly clear tones. Ever and anon, as I listened to the child's cry of "Oh, father, my father!" I was clutched by the icy hand of the awful phantom he had invoked.

A long conversation in low tones had taken place, and the Marquis had left her, nervous and agitated.

Just think what you would miss were you to do so this early think what I should miss. Come up here and be sensible that's a good boy." The ringmaster paid no attention to their chatter, which was in tones too low for the audience to catch. Phil placed the little jumping board in place, upon which the riders step just as they are leaping to the back of the ring horses. Then the lad backed up.

"Good Danny!" she praised, petting him to his heart's content. It was thus that Aleck Van Camp found them, as he came over the stile from the house. His tones were slower and more precise than ever, but his face was drawn and marked with anxiety. He had a careful thought for Agatha, even in the face of his greater trouble. "You have chosen a bad hour to wander about, Miss Redmond.

It really is a shame, for youth only comes once." "What a queer life! What a queer life for a girl to lead!" said the little doctor in jerky tones. "And is she contented with it?" "Yes, I think so; but, then, she has no idea what she is missing." With that reply the two voices passed out of hearing, leaving Margaret standing motionless under the tree.
