Let us consider clear and distinet enunciation as contrasted with other kinds. Talking distinctly is one of the finest of human accomplishments. The Association of the Hard of Hearing, at a recent meeting, urged tlie cultiva- tion of lp-reading by those inclined to deafness. Talking with the lips is as good for those who. talk as It 1s for those who listen. The finest and clear- est enunciation is by those who enun- ciate with the lower lip’ and the tongue, instead’ of by“ wagging their jaws and talking through their’ noses. ‘Avoid masticating your spoken words, and ,that..besetting.

A combat between sharks is a rare sight, but @ battle to the finish was witnéssed- in the sea off the South Carolina coast by some fishermén. A commotion in the water first, attract- ed attention to the spot. The two monster fish were attacking each oth- er with the utmost fury; and as the struggle took place at the surface of the water, the anglers had an excel- lent view of it. The .sharks fought, not with their teeth,.but with their long, powerful tails. They dashed fu- riously at éach other, darting this way and that, each lashing at the other with his tail. At no time did the speéc- tators see bloo® in the water, but the | blows that were struck were evidently hard enough to do fatal damage, for after a while one of the combatants | began to show signs of distress. It gradually weakened and presently turned sideways om the surface and then over on its back, in which po- sition it floated, apparently dead. ‘The men in the boat were about to attach a rope to the cafedss ‘then suddenly: there was a mighty swirl in the water, and the other shark came. swiftly’ to the surface, seized the defeated foe in his jaws and carried him down out of sight.
