Nenr.y All of Thc:, Arc of Extremely
Ancient; Origin.
Apollo was the old god OF rnusic, and
his favoritc instrument, the Tyre, was
invented by Mercury When the latter
was four hours old he found the shell
Of Il tortoise and made 1t into Il Tyre with
nine strings, in honor of the nine muses..
This instrument Mercury gave to
Apollo, who became wonderful play
er upon it The Tyre was used by the
Greeks in oldcn times, and from it was
fashioned the harp.
The old-tinc viol was the first instru-
ment Of its kind, and furnished the plan
for the modern violin. which. however, is
several hundred years old 1t is said
that Charles II. introduced it into Eng
land One of the finest makers of vio-
Inns was Stradivarius, of Crcmona, who
existed in the early part Of the eight
zenith century. Violins made by him
are worth thousands of dollars now.
The harp WINS King David's favorite in
strument. The harp was used by the
Welsh and Saxons, and also by the an
cient people of Ireland. One of the old
est harps in existence is in tho Dublin
college museum, and originally be-
longcd to Brian Boroihme, king of Ire
land.

A Suggestion for City Physicians

The emergency which occurred re-
Gently in family living above Twenty
third street and, below Fifty-ninth street
should serve as suggestion to physi-
clans of that district. Shortly after II
o'clock in the forenoon the wife and
mother of the household referred to fell
and sprained her ankle as she was about
to enter her carriage in front of her resi-
dence. She was Immediately assisted
into the house and the coachman dis
patched to the family physician.
He soon returned with the word that
the doctor was out, and round among
the medical offices followed with the
same result. Every physician in that
neighborhood appeared to have the same
office hours and not one could be reached.
1t was over an hour before the suffering
woman got medical assistance, and then
it was through her work in a certain
hospital that one of the surgeons was dis
patched to her relief
1t would seem to be a good plan for
doctors to arrange their Office hours with
some regard to those of other medical
men in the same district, so that one or
two should be always on call, good as
well for the profession as for the laity.-

A Giant Chestnut Tree.

Probably the largest chestnut tree in
Connecticut stands in the town of Mans
field on the land of Mr.. Whipple Green
1t was pointed out to me by Mr.. Nathan
Starkweather. We visited it on Aug
81, 1890. 1t is in an open pasture, about
three-fourths of mile east from Mans
field Station, perhaps fifty rods from the
house of Mr.. Green and not far from
the travelled road. A small brook runs
short distance from the tree. The
circumference is twenty-three feet at
four feet from the ground. 1t is heavily
buttressed all around. and the trunk is
apparently souuA Four large branches
have been sent out: the lowest, ten feet
from the ground, measures sixteen feet
four inches in circumference and ex-
tends toward the northeast. The cir
conference of the buttresses, or rather
of their roots, exposed above the ground
is tifty-four feet.
Some of the large and high branches
have been broken, the result probably
of severe snow or ice storms, so that it
is not perfectly symmetrical The di-
ameter of the spread of the brancL es
from the northeast to the southwest is
eighty three feet, and from the north
west to the southeast 100 feet. Mr.
Starkweather estimates the height to be
eighty feet. 1t is a noble specimen of
the American chestnut, which has with
stood many years of winds and storms
and promises. to live many years yet un-
less attacked by the woodman's ak. Let
us hope he will spare that tree. -Gurdon
