Onail on Toast.

From the Merchant Trayeier.l
A Kentucky farmer with a lot c.
friends we're doing Louisville one night
and brought up at a small restaurant
where the farmer called for everything
on the bill and especially quail OF
toast. When he went to settle, the bill
was S23.75
"What's that? | don't want to bur
your dOgoned old restaurant; want 3
pay for the feed for this gang"
That is what the bill is for, sir. "
Then one of his friends got hold
him and urged him not to pay so muc-
Do you know" said he, "wbt
quail on toast is %
No, but it was in the bill in big le-
teTs."
81 know it, and they charged yu
seventy-fve cents for each one."
"Who are they?"
Why, quail on toast amt nothin' n
the world but pa 'tridges and light bred,
and you know we can git pa'tridges sr
seventy-fve cents dozen down whee
We come from, and bread don't cst
nothin'. Don't you pay more'n that if
you do you're fool.
He settled at $40, and as he went oft
be remarked:
Well, dogon the French languag,
anyhow. French Frenchis is bad enoue.,
but when a man tackles KentucK

that quail on toast means pa'tridges a,d

Luther and Music.

Luther's name plays In the history of
music more important part than those
who merely look upon his religious work
are apt to imagine. That work, indeed,
was furthered In the most material sense
by the aid of "Frau Musika to use
luther's own expression in the poem adj
dressed by him to the divine art. His
friends and enemies alike bear testimony
to the fact. 1t was common complaint
of the Catholic clergy of his day that
their congregations were allured to the
Protestant churches by the beautiful
music which might be heard there, that
Luther had led as many souls TO per-
dition by his hymns as by his doctrinal
writings. With the true instinct which
belongs to all popular leaders, he recog-
nized the deep longing in the heafts OF
the German people for genuine melodi-
Gus utterance5-a longing intimately
connected with their religious feeling,
and as unappeasable by Greporian
chants as was that feeling by the set
formulas OF the mass. To supplant the
Roman mass bya German mass in which
the living word should be welded to Iiv-
ing music was, IN consequence, his ia
vorite task, and for that task he was
well qualified. From his childhood he
had loved music, and as a little boy he
is said to have earned a scanty livelihood
by singing sacred chants In the streets
of Eisleben. Even IN later life he had
q fine melodious voice, and was skilled
performer on the lutte and on the finite.
On the latter instrument he used to ulay
the tunes which Cantor John Walker
took down In writing and adapted to
Luther's soul-stirring German hymns.
How many OF these tunes were actually
invested by thereformer, how many sec
ular Volkslieder welded to sacred texts
it is now impossible to determine. In
the collection of Calvisius no fewer than
1877 melodies are attributed to him, ten
or dozen is probably nearer the mark.
But among them there IS, beyond a
doubt, that mighty hymn " Elm feste
Burg ist unser Gott, a." which dnring the
last struggle with France supplied the
Germans with a war song as grand as
the Marsella1se itself. Ten or twelve
hymn tunes is not a very solid basis to
found a reputation as a composer upon.
but Luther's influence upon the progress
of modern music can not be measured
By the quantity of his actual production,
As from Palestrina's mas evolved a pow
erfnl growth Of Catholic Church music,
extending from that master down to No
zart. Beethoven, Gounod, and Liszt, so
the Lutheran chorale became the vital
principle of Bacn's and Handel's, and

Christmas i'm Germany.

In German communities Christmas
is the most strictly observed of all fes-
tivals. Every household prepares its
" Weihnachts BAUM" be it a lordly
tree, from whose wide-spreading and
garlanded branches hang trinkets, French
bonbons, and ingenious clockwork
toys: whose sturdy stem Uses out of little
pyramid of cakes, crackers, and hot-ho-
use flowers, and whose comely proper
tions are revealed by the light of
thousand star-hke tapers; or be it but
q humble little shrub boasting but
kreutzer's worth of gingerbread and
paper cuttings lighted by but tallow
dip, and rising modestly ont of the neck
of an exhausted " schnaps" bottle.
Poor, indeed, must be the "paterfami-
has, and sadly desperate his financial
prospects, who cannot scrape together
the necessary pitt8nce for his baum
He would sooner go without his tobacco
than have to tell his wife and children
that there could be no tree this year.
The whole thing may seem trivial, and
the pleasure with which even grown-up
people join in what is nothing less than
a household ceremony strikes one as
childish: but there is much to be said
for 1t. 1t serves to repair the almost
worn-out family ties of many house
hold, and brings out the wholesome and
most worthy points in many natures one
has up to then been accustomed to look
upon as a compound of dissipation and
selfsbness. Christmas is, again, the
recognized time for reconcliatons, when
old standing quarrels and tifs can be
healed, and when either party can make
the first advances without the unworthy
fear of seeming seryile.
