Some men say that they would rather
hear one ballad than the whole o!
Beethoven. No doubt persons who have
advanced but a single step would say so
Melodies are only one step away from
love Of single sound, as of the horn OF
bugle, or what not; when one has ad.
vanced beyond that, the love of melodit
strains rs developed, People say they
do not care for what is called harmony
Of course they don't; they are not higl
enough up.
When persons come 10 harmonies they
have only simple ones, That is natural
But when we come to Handel, to Bach
to Beethoven, we have then the suprem-
est Developments of music, and the mere
outward form is comparatively lost il
the sweep of the inwardness that it is
carrying along with it. AS the vast mul
titude OF persons are not developed very
highly, 30 the vast multitude of persons
do not like these masters; but, if they
live long enough, they will; for | think
we shall have something of the music o
earth even in heaven.-Exchange.

Yet Not . visitor Smiled.

An American gives us an instance Of
his experience in Syria. He was about
to mount his mule amidst a crowd of
Oriental visitors, and wished to give
them an exaggerated idea of American
agility. He jumped little too far, and
overshot the mark, coming down on the
other side like diver, with his hands and
nose in the mud, his feet caught in the
saddle, and his coatskirts cleverly rolled
over his head, to screen him from what
he supposed was laughing crowd.
Yet not a soul smiled, not sound was
heard save tender grunt of sympathy
and demure offers of aid. Now a Turk in
America, with baggy breaches and tur-
baned head, taking leap over mule in
the streets of an American city, and
getting stuck upside down, with his pro-
boscis in a rut and his heels in the saddle,
would be saluted with something more
than a grl1nt of sympathy and demure
offers of aid. We have more humor than
dignity; the Turks more dignity than
humor. -Youth's Companion.

Making Up skeletons in Paris.

There is in one Of the outlying quarters
of Paris building in which corpses are
boiled in huge caldrons until the bone,
are perfectly free and white; but mas
much as it is very difficult to obtain {
perfect corpse assuming that all those
which are boiled have already passed
through the dissecting- rooms of the hos
pitals-a number of persons of botl
sexes are employed to make up skeletons
from the promiscuous mass Of bones
which have undergone the boiling pro
cess. Then they are fastened together
with wires, and when the work part il
complete, it is impossible for the scientific
eye to detect anything wrong in a skele
ton that has been made up from thu
bones of several individuals. - Pari
