ON WAGNEH'S MUSIC.
Col. Robert. G. ingersoil's Address at th'
.stanton-SciIl i.cideraranz banquet.

Ii is probable that wax selected TO

one note from another, ! have no prelu-
Dice on The subject. All J can say is chat

hand organ 60 the orchestra. Knowing
nothing Of the science Of music, am no;
ALWAYS looking for defects. or listening
for diScordS. As the Young robin cheer
fully swallows what comes, | hear with
sla,lmcsS all that is played.
Music has been, ! suppose, 4 gTaGua!
growth, subject to !hc law oi eroluilon-
ana nearly everything, with the possible
execution Of theology, is under tits !aw.
Music may BE divided into three kinds:
First, the music Of simple time, without
ans particular cmphasS-and this may be
called the music of tho heels; second,
music in which time is varied, III which
there is the eager haste and thc delicious
DELAY. that is. he fast and Sos. in ac-
cordaiicc with our feelings, VITA on" emo
,ioI;s-ard this MAJ be called the music
Of the heart: third, ;he music that IN
cludcS time and emphasis, the Fastening
and the dciay--soinething IN addition llai
produces not only states o! feeling bn!
states of thought This may he called
the music OF the head the music OF the
brain.
Music expresses feeling aud thought
without language. 1t was below and be,
lore speech, ana it is aho"c an" BEYOND
all words. Before man found name FOR
any thought or thing, he had hopes ana
fear and passions. and these were rude'y
expressed in tones.
OF one thing, however, j am certain
and that is that music was born OF !oVc.
Had there never been any ll"nah aHec7
ton. there never would have been uilere"
=, strain of music. Possibly some mother
looking in the ewes Of her babe. gave the
first melody to the cnr&ptnrcd ar.
Language is not subtle enough, tender
cnouoL. to express all that We feel, ana
whom language fails the highest and deep

Forests In Sweden.

The forests of Sweden cover nearly half
of the whole surface of the country. These
forests, which are chiefly of pine and fir, are
found in nearly all parts of the kingdom;
but many of the finest tracts, extending in
some cases continuously for eighty miles
occur in the southern districts of Norrland,
the greater part of the forest lands being
situated below Ga dogs. of latitude. The
government owns some 1900 square miles
of forest land, and sets an excellent ex
ample to other owners in the management
of this property.
On many estates quantities of young
trees are planted every year to fill up the
ever widening gaps among the mature
trees. But sad inroads upon the forests
have been made in the iron and copper dis
tricts of Dalecarlia and Dannemora, where
the trees have been remorselessly cut down
to provide charcoal for the smelling fur
naces; and in these localities no effort has
been made to continue the supply by re
planting. Chambers journal.

AS durable cases and those most likely to
recover are the ones who generally attend
school, the direct curative influences can.
not be accurately estimated; but, as might
be expected, the most encouraging results
are met with in the young and in those
whose insanity has been of comparatively
short duration. / can recall two cases
where the patient could not read or write
before becoming insane, but became fairly
proficient in both before returning home.
Three others also occur to me who APP
peared to be in the depths of dementia, but
were, after several days of patient trial,
made to feel an interest in puzzle map"
and each went on uninterruptedly to re.
covery and home.
Another patient is the terror Of the ward,
in which she stays until 10 o'clock in the
morning, when she goes quietly to school
and remains for two hours one of the most
interested of them all. After leaving the
school she again becomes ugly and irri-
table, and it is only the fear of being kept
away from it that makes her at all con.
trollabe Surely these scattered instances
show results sufficient to justify the efforts
made; but | am sure that, even where the
results are not so marked, the school is at
least an important adjunct to employment
games, out of door exercise and amuse
ments.-C. w. Pilgrim, NJ. D., in Popular
Science Monthly.

An Anecdote of Greeley.

A call was once made by dozen noted
artists of the Academy of Design in 1910,
on Horace Greeley. Mr.. Clarence Cook,
then the art critic of The Tribune, had
been saying things about the academy ex-
hibition which caused the venerable
chiefs of that establishment to boil with
Indignation. One day committee went
down to The Tribune to complain. Mr.
Greeley, having listened in silence to wha,
these gentlemen had to say, looked uE
from his desk, twinkle in his eye, and
said, with his peculiar nasal falsetto
Gentlemen, judge from your remarks
that Mr. Cooks articles are widely read
They WILL therefore, continue to be print
ed in The Tribune. Good morning."-Sar
