Chimes and how They are Rung,

Bells may be rung in two ways !;
first, by swinging them with rope
and wheel and secondly, by striking
them either upon the outside or inside
with hammers, the bell itself being sta
tionary. In England the former meth
cd of rope and wheel was almost uni
versaly adopted, requiring man for
each bell. From this method We get
that interesting and peculiarly English
kind of chime music known az the
changes which gave England the
name of the Ringing Island. In Bel.
GUM, however, the stationary method
was used. Chimes played in this man
ner were rung by one person and
called clrilons, because the Italian
quadriglio, or quadrille, "a dreary
kind OF dance music was the first
ever played upon them. To play upon
carilions the performers used an iustru-
ment known as the 'clavecin," a kind
of rough keyboard arrar ged in semi
tones. Each KY was connected by
wire or rope with hammer, which
struck the bell when a sharp blow was
given the key with gloved fist. This
machine was necessarily extremely
crude at first and, since chimes have
never played half so well as in the
days of this invention, it is all the
greater wonder that the art ever pro-
gressed at all Recently some great
masterpieces in chime music have b, en-
found, which were composed and play
ed at Louvain in the latter half of the
last century by the most skilful and
wonderful chimer who ever lived, Mat.
thias van den Gheyn. No one in Eu-
rope or America can now be found
who is able to play this music, which
rivals in the depth and subtlety of its
composition some of the finest works
of Bach, Mozart or Beethoven. Hence
the inference is that the art of playing
oarillons has sadly declined, with small
prospect of ever recovering the lost
ground.

Beginning Reform at Home.

The author of Mr.. r. B. Hayes fa
nous scrap books is no more He was
the first victim of the reform axe al
the White House. For eight years,
with big pair of shears in his good
right hand and paste pot on his left,
he has clipped and clipped, and pasted
and pasted, in season and out of sea-
son. He was from Ohio of course.
Mr.. Hayes imported him. His name
was Morton. 1t was Morton's duty to
cut out of the newspapers that reached
the White House comments on the Ad-
ministration and paste them in his
books. He blistered his fingers in the
service of Hayes, for that great egg
farmer was bound to get hold of some
thing good about himself and every
rural newspaper in the land had to be
searched for it. Morton's duties in
those days made the Office no sinecure.
For four long years he pasted up the
handsome volumes, paid for out of the
contingent fund, which are now so
much admired by visitors to the Re
treat of Fraud at Fremont, Saudusky
county, Ohio. In the brief term of
Garfield the White House exchange
editor continued to ply his shears un-
disturbed. When Gen. Arthur sue
ceeded 10 the tenancy of the White
House he did not change the order of
things He was in delicate aud try
ing position and hesitated to make re-
movals from motiqes that were certain
to be misunderstood. The shears grew
less industrious, the paste thickened,
the scraps went unread, and Mr.. Ar
thur manifested slack interest in the
literary remains that were embalmed
for his supposed benefit.
Mr.. Cleveland had been in the
White House about two days when he
discov cred desert waste of newspa-
pers stacked up.
"Where in the world do all those
newspapers come FROM he inquired.
"They are regularly ordered, sir"
was the reply. "Those that do not
come free are paid for out of the con-
tingent fund"
"That must be stopped said the
President, quickly. II will select the
ne "spapers | wish to take and pay for
them myself"
The natural sequence of this CONVEX
satlon was that Mr.. Hayes scrap book
compiler fell in the way of Col. La
monts axe, and snug berth, paying
eighteen hundred year, was abolish
ed.
Two other clerks, also from Ohio,
were retired at the same time, NJ. ].

dent Garfield, Col. Lamont expects 10

Waking at Will.

A Good Customer.

Bruce was a Scottish dog, that lived
in Edinburgh. His master kept a gro
Gerry store.
A man used to pass almost every day
with meat pies to sell, He carried a
bell, and rang it now and then, TO let
people know he was coming. He only
asked penny apiece for his pies, but
they were small, and an England penny
is worth about two of yur cents,
One day Bruce was sitting at the
door of the shop when the pie-man
came along. He saw the dogs wistful
look, and gave him PIE.
Bruce wagged his tail for "Thank
YOU" and put the pie in his dinner
basket in a hurry.
Ting a-ling, ting-a.ling, went the
bell next day, Bruce bounded out
from the shop, caught the pie man S
coat in his teeth, and would not let 90.
He did not tear the coat, but showed
very plainly that he meant to keep
the man there till he had pie.
The dogs master stood in the door
way.
The pie-man took penny out of
his pocket, showed it to the dog, and
pointed to his master. Bruce under
stood, He bounded to his master s
side, put his fore'paws on him, wagged
his tail, and looked up in his face with
eager, eutreating eyes. The penny
was given, and Bruce took it in his
mouth to the man, and bought bis
pie,
Every day after that he watched for
the pie-man, and the moment he heard
the bell he ran to his master, and beg
ged for a penny 1t was never refus-
ed and SO Bruce became a regular
customer good one, too, for he al
ways paid promptly, and never found
fault.
