AtlOlpn Kenselt.

The death of this celebrated pianist cannot
be said to have left void in the musical
world, Henselt having long passed the age
Of active and influential service in the cause
Of his art. He is especially entitled to re-
membrance as forming link between the
pianisn of the Hummer school and that Of
Franz Liszt. Born in 1914, at Schwabach,
in Bavaria, he had the advantage of Hum
nlers teaching. but quickly discovered that
his preceptor's technique was insufficient,
and consequently applied himself diligently
to newer methods of finger training, with
special devotion to the art of playing extern
slons.
In this branch Of pianoforte playing he ac-
quired marvellous facility, and on his last
visit to London lin 1861, where he never ap-
peared in public owing to natural shyness Of
disposition, he astonished and delighted a
select auditory at BrOadwood's, where he
played Weber's sonata in A fiat, which, as
musicians are aware, contains some awkward
extended chords. For students his method
can only be advantageousiy utilized in union
with others, and his studies OPP. and are
unsuitable for any but very advanced players
His concerto in F minor is now rarely played,
and as a composer he is at present best known
by his bright Etude in sixths, Isl oiseau
j'etais" In 1888 Henselt settled in ST. Peters
burg as court pianist and teacher, but paid
annual visits during the vacation to Warm
brunn, in Silesia, where he died.-The Athe-

A Vine Of the Dead.

In the beautiful cemetery of Athens stands
an old tomb of family once prominent, not
only in the classic city, but in other cities
throughout the state In it are laid at rest
the bodies of several ancestors who once
played prominent parts in the history OF
Athens and the state. Death sights no fam
ly, though for time it may pass it by. A
few years after the war, the door of the last
cold resting place of the family yawned for
a while and closed again on the increased
dead who slept within its dark, cold recesses
For some years there were no deaths, and the
silence of the tomb was unbroken, save for
the visits of loved ones who knelt without and
offered prayer for the dead or paid loving
tribute to their virtues At last death came
once more The good old grandmother
bowed to the will of time, and dear ones
gathered to pay their last respects The SOL
emn procession wound its slow way to the
cemetery.
The door Of the vault opened heavily on its
hinges as it swung back to receive its dead.
A food of golden sunlight filed the tomb, dis
peliing the gloom and revealing a strange
sight There, creeping along the walls and
over the collins, was white vine. Pure and
pearly it stood in bold relief against the dark
background and ghstened in the sunlight.
But what most astonished those who saw it
was its urn shaped windngs There was no
MISLEADING the resemblance. It was almost a
perfect urn But the wonder did not stop
here. Curling further on, it formed D, the
family initial. AstonishmeHt ceased not here.
1t was ripe mystery, and the climax was
yet TO be reached. The minister offered up
the prayer, "Ashes to ashes, dust to dust. !"
Those who were looking at the white vine
saw it tremble, then it shook and fell in frag-
ments, scattering over the collins of the dead.

A Tale of Triplets and a Goat.

A tale of triplets and goat comes from
the east end Three children with but a single
thought, and that was to deodorize the goat
Usually triplets, per So, do not survive the ills
that flesh is heir to- One or two are certain
to pass away But in this case the trio with
one birthday lived and grew and became
strong and hearty. They own-or did own
a goat, and, as their sensibilities developed,
they realized that the animal, by some wise
provision of nature, had been endowed with
a disagreeable odor. To remove this stigma
from their pet became the cherished ambition
of the three.
To accomplish the disinfecting process the
garden hose was brought into requisition
That goat was played upon as though it was
burning building, reducing the unfortunate
animal to semi-comatose condition. 1t was
then carefully inspected nasally, by COM
mittee of the whole, and the disgust of the
three was great when it was found that the
goat srnelled very goaty. The children then
assumed that the trouble lay deeper than its
hide and hair, and that an internal applica-
ton of water would be necessary So the I'M
fortunate animals mouth was opened, the
hose inserted and the water turned ON. A
little OF that sort of thing goes long way,
even with goat, and tho trio soon had life
less pet on their hands. 1t died a martyr to
three childrens conception of what was due.

Father and Son.

There was AN educational scene down at
the depot the other day between man and
boy, but it was the man that needed the
education, not the boy. The boy came there
to meet his father, and failed to bring some
piece Of baggage which was expected. II
did just as you told me to, papa" said the
little fellow, who was a manly little chap.
II told John to get it and put it in the car
rage, and he didn't do it,"
''Idon't believe you're telling me- the truth,
said the father, in n loud, bullying tone.
gu forgot to say word about it, and
when get home III settle with you"
''But, father, did"
'sHush up" said the man sternly, while the
boys cheeks flushed and his eyes filed with
tears.
At that moment the man John, who SEEM
ed to be family factotum OF coaehman,
came into the depot and the father asked
him about the matter:
Fred is right, SIR" said the man, candid
ly; she told me about it, but had good bit
to do, an it slipped my mind. You can blame
me, sir if it's wrong"
Did the father then turn to his little son
and asked to he excused for doubling his
word and speaking so harsbly. Not bit of
it. He looked as angry rs if Le wished his
son had been wrong, and the passengers wait
ing there were sorry for the future of that
boy.-Minneapolis Tribune.

Ancient Marriage Custom

According to The Cleveland Commercial
Gazette, the Hebrews had beautiful and
elevated idea Of the marriage relation; the
Greeks had not Sparta cared nothing for
the sanctity of marriage, and it was consid-
cred customary and reputable for men to
give their wives over to their friends. Aris-
totle speaks of men buying wives from one
another. Homer refers to the fact that tho
father was the owner of the child until she
was beyond his control, and was paid for her
in cattle, and this was called cattle finding. A
Trojan ally, who was slain by Agamemnen,
had given 100 cattle to obtain wife, and
then promised zoo head of sheep and goats
besides. II the wife proved u1ifaithful, the
husband could demand back the price, I'm
der the Roman law a dover had to 90 with
the wife.
Affinity and consequently were formerly
in some countries greater objections to mar
riage than now. Gregory forbade the mar
riage of cousins. The Church of England
does not forbid such marriages Some Of
our states do and some do not. The roman
tic Cleopatra WAS daughter of brother
and sister, and she welded her younger
brother, according to the custom of the
Ptolenlies. Many authorities claim that
marriage to cousins is not detrimental where
there have not been such marriages in the
family before.
The marriage ceremony has differed in all
ages Among the ancient Hebrews mar
riage began with the betrothal, but no for
mality was required. By his teaching Christ
became legislator on this subject, and en-
nobled the relation more than it had ever
been in the worlds history.

Value of the Faith Cure.

Probably two-thirds of the patients who
seek physician have only those complaints
that could be aneiiorated by strong belief
on their part that they are BETTER" said DR..
Thomas B. Hood.
''This is the reason those who are the sub
jects of faith cure find relief. Very many
people have times in their lives when they
feel unwen, with no real organic trouble Of
any degree troubling them. Many nervous
diseases and cases in which the patient chiefly
needs a general toning up of the system
might come under this head. II such per-
son, by any means whatever. can be made TO
believe he is better and will get well. it is
very apt to follow that he will at once feel
very much improved. Tho number of people
who might be improved by faith cure is
egior.-W ashington Post

Row to Hypnotise.

The Medical Times and Register says that,
IN the induction of the hypnotic s-ep, the
liking OF the eyes upon brass ball or other
bright object, according to Braid's method,
is 30 longer considered necessary. Simply
place the patient in q large armchair, in a
quiet, slightly darkened room tell him not to
resist the influence to sleep, and then repeat
dozen or more times some such phrases as
Now you are going to sleep; you arc breath
ing slowly; your eyes are closing; YOU are
almost asleep etc, In low, monotonous
tone OF voice. Ii the patient is hypnotized,
cataleptic state viii be manifested when
the arms are raised. Now the desired cure il
suggested, and after a few moments the
patient is awakened by simply telling him to
awake. Such is tae method employed by the

The Lancet contains warning against the
use of iced fish. Ice spells the freshness
firmness and flavor of fish by rendering it
prior to putrefaction, inspid, soft and fabby
Where fish is preserved en- ice it appears that
the ice only favors putrcfaction by furnish
ing a constant supply Of moisture, carrying
with it the putrefactfve bacteria derived
from its unclean surroundings, SO that thi.
iced fish remains covered with fresh solutions
of filth pregnant with putrefactive bacteria
On the other hand, keeping fish dry and COO
can in no way favor putrefaction. 1t is
stated that seventy different kinds Of focd
fishes, on being eaten Within a few hours OF
their death, give rise to poisonous symptoms
and it Is said to be the intention Of the Rus
sian government to offer prize of 81. 200 fol-
the best essay upon the nature and cure Of

The "Holy LRnds'' of All Religions

Christians call Palestine the Holy Land be-
cause it was the birthplace Of our religion as
well as that of Jesus Christ, our Saviour,
whose birth, ministry and death occurred in
the vicinity of Jerusalem. To the Moham-
medans, Mecca in Ara bia, is the Holy Land,
it being the nativity of Mohammed, the
savior of those who believe in his doctrine.
India is the Holy Land of the Chinese and
other oriental Buddhists, it being the native
land of Sakya-hiuni, the supreme Buddha.
Ellis, one of the several divisions of the ancient
Peloponnesus, was the Mecca and the Jeru-
salem of the ancient Greeks. The temple of
Olympus Zeus was situated at Ellis, and the
sacred festivals were held there each year.
With Achaia, it is at present part OF
Greece. The believers in the Sinto religion
make annual pilgrimages to Sitsa-Kara, the
immense stone pillar where their supreme
ruler last stood while tai - to men.-St.

man in her hours of shopping may be uncer-
