One of the most pathetic Of sights
was that seen in the Boston music hail
at e last concert given by Mario, the
once famous tenor. He was poor, and
the hall was filled with persons who
had been ardent admirers of his won
derful art, and now that he had lost
his art were willing to put money IN
his purse.
The tenor tried one of his great
songs, but his decayed voice refused
to sing the notes. Again he tried, and
again he failed. Then, with sad
smile, and a slow, mournful move
ment of his head, he suffered the or
chestra to play through the air, and
retired from the stage amid the silence
OF the plying audience.
Another pathetic story is told OF
Bottesini, famous violinist, concern
ing his last concert at Parma:
It was rainy evening and the man.
ayers had forgotten to send carriage
for the veteran, who set out on foot,
and had gone some distance before a
passing friend perceived him and made
him enter his carriage.
Arrived at the concert room, Bot
tesini tuned his instrument and began
to rub his bow with rosin. The rosin
crumbled i'll his hands, and, turning
to his friends with sad half smile,
he said, See, it is so that Bottesini,
too, will break up"
Then he grasped his loved instru-
ment and drew the bow across the
strings, but instantly stopped with a
wondering look, for he felt something
strange in the tone; his touch was an
swered less readily and certainly than
of old.
Once more he tried, and once more
stopped this time with a smile, saying
only, 1T answers no more" His au-
dience perceived nothing unusual in
the performance, which they applaud
ed as warmly as ever, but Bottesini
seemed to feel the shadow of death.
On the following day he was stricken
with illness, and soon after the won
derful hand was stilled forever

Gold rings are made from bars nine
to fifteen inches long. One of these
bars, fifteen inches long, two inches
wide and 3-16 of an inch thick, is
worth 81, 900, and will make 400 four
pennyweight rings. A dozen processes
and twenty minutes time are required
to convert this bar into merchantable
rings. First a pair of shears cuts the
bar into strips. Then by the turn of a
wheel guillotine like blade attached
to the machine cuts the bar into slices,
one, two or three siXteenths of an inch
wide. A rolling machine next presses
out the slices and makes them either
fiat or grooved. Each strip is then
put under blow pipe and annealed.

MILK and Lunacy.

The public analyst of Halifax, York
shire, Mr.. Ackroyd, thinks that men
tai alteration may sometimes be as
cribed to the use of weak milk. In
The Provincial Medical Journal under
the title of The Milk Supply and Lu-
Macy" he draws attention to some sta
tistics Of admissions to lunatic eStab-
lishments in Scotland. While the
average monthly number Of admis-
sions for the eight years is 1889, in
the months of May, June and July
the number is 62S above the average,
and 462 below it for the months OF De-
tober, November, December and Jan
uary. Moreover, the rise and fall are
gradual; the number going upin Feb
ruary, March and April, and down IN
July, August and September. Such
variations, Mr.. Ackroyd believes, have
been correlated with a number OF
other phenomena, and he desires to
add one more to the list, viz, the sea-
sonal variation in the quality OF milk
He has been at the pains to plot a
curve for the years 1885, based on
over 33, 900 samples OF milk analysed
for the Aylesbury Dairy company, ana
the result of his Investigations goes W
show that there is curious CORE
spondence between the rate OF admls-
sions to lunatic asylums and the qua,
ity of milk, the former rising as inc
percentage of solids in milk Is op
served to fall.
