On the piazza of Bar Harbor cot
tage, now unoccupied, two young
people found themselves one evening
seated upon Z. garden bench, near .
window at the corner Of the house. L
was bright moonlight evening, and
happening TO look in at the window
the gentleman spied across the room
through another window. on the OPP
posite side another couple sitting on
the piazza, with their arms lovingly
entwined and evidently wrapped in
sweet oblivion to all things mundane.
Whispering softly TO the lady with
him, he cautiously stole to the corner
and looked round, but the couple had
gone. Returning to his seat, he was
astounded, on looking through the
window again, to behold the same
couple in the same attitude. Waiting
a few minutes, but still keeping their
eyes on the strange couple and noting
their maneuvers, they planned that
they should both jump suddenly
round the corner and surprise the
pair. They jumped, and 10! the mys.
FERROUS two had again vanished. An
other ghost story was well under way
when our young friends discovered
that they had been looking in mir.

It has been known by scientists for
some time that more valuable investi-
CATION was buried from sight in the
Russian language than in any or all
others. Few can imagine what activ-
ity in geographical, statistical, astro-
nomical and other research has gone
on in the empire Of the car. It is pre-
dicted that within ten years more stu
dents will take up the Russian Lam
guage than the German, simply as q

INTERESTING CULLINGS.
HEAR THE BELLS.
Something About the Origin OF the Chin
ers and Their Uses.

Something About the Origin OF the Chin
ers and Their Uses.
Bells" says Coleridge, "are the
poor mans only music, and, indeed,
what would the world be without the
music of their ringing9 Many learned
philosophers have ground out column
after column of metaphorical essays
in their attempts to depict to US the
awful consequences that would fall
upon us should we be transported to a
world without color or instrumental
music; the result would surely be equal
ly disastrous should some evil genii
deprive US of all the bells in the world
and of the art of manufacturing a new
supply to fill their places.
What would London have done for
a lord mayor for three whole terms
between the years 1889 and 1413 had
not Richard Wilmington needed the
gentle admonition of the bow bells as
they told him in silver tongued tones:
Turn again, Wilmington, thrice lord
mayor of London"
The name of the inventor of bells
has been lost in the wide revolving
shades of centuries past; but what is
in q nameQ It little matters who he
was or where he lived. We surely
know as much of his personal history
and habits as we would if told his
Moses, and that he lived an indefinite
period SO many years b. Q.
Bells are mentioned as being part of
the vestment or ornaments attached
to the wearing apparel of ancient Jew
high priests as far back as the time of
Aaron and his brother. Moses the
meek man.
Even in moro remote times we are
told that religious assemblages and
caravans about to start on journey
were called together by the ringing
of hand bells and cymbals.
Polomus, bishop of Nola, Cam
pania, small Italian principally,
was the first to use bell on or near
the. building wherein Christians con-
gregated for worship. This was about
the year 400 A. D. These primitive
church buildings were not provided
with a belfry, that very necessary
adjunct being q separate building or
tavern erected either at the front or
the rear of the main building and
used for the sole accommodation of
the bell. These towers were usually
called "Campanile," in honor of the
Italian state, Campania, in which
they were first erected. In early times
the bell itself was called q "Cam-
pana," throughout Europe, and may
be so called in Italy until this day, for
aught the writer knows.
In the Fourth century Christians
attributed to Bishop Polomus' bells q
two fold efficacy, believing them to be
ais useful in warding of lightning as
in admonishing dilatory church goers
of the duty they owed themselves and
God. A taTorite inscription on bells
of the Fourth and Fifth centuries,
and even down through the Middle
Ages, was: "Vivos voco-mortuoe
plango-Fulgura FRANCO" Schiller,
in his immortal ''Song Of the Bel,
uses the above as a motto. If trans
lated it would. read something like
this: Il call the iving-I mourn thu
dead-I break the ightning."SJohr
w. Wright in st. Louis Republic.
