"rhe Largest Organ in the World. /"

1.-THE largest organ in the world" has
an unfortunate habit of spreading itself
over a great surface. 1t is i'll Boston, in
Harlem, inc dozen other European
cities, in Garden City, in Brooklyn, in
Chicago. Possibly we may have it some
time in New York. The great Harlem
organ has sixty stops and 4,OS8 pipes.
Fifteen of these stops and 1.098 of the
pipes are in the echo organ. 1t takes so
much strength to play this organ that
the organist is said to be completely ex-
hausted after performance.
The organ in the Brooklyn Tabernacle
has 110 stops and 4,44S pipes. The organ
in the Chicago Auditorium has 100 speak
ing stops and enough mechanical acces-
sories and pedal movements to bring the
number to 176, and 7,124 pipes, besides
sixty-nine bells. The echo organ alone
has S42 pipes.-New York Times. II

Cooperative farming colonies have
proved success in New Zealand. In
the northern island of the group the
British colonial government sold three
blocks of land to three groups Of set
tiers about six years ago. The pioneers
worked the land on the cooperative
plan, while the ultimate intention was
that each family should in time pur-
chase its own separate home. Orchards
have been planted and grain and other
crops raised. The settlers are rapidly
paving for their homes.

They are busy and willing to be as long
as the nickle clicks over the counter. We
refer this time to the soda fountain pro-
prietors, who can stand this weather and
still smile. Soda water sounds good and is
good and must bs healthy or we should be
called upon to chronicle the sudden de-
mise of more than half our citizens within
a very short time. A constant stream
goes up to the fountain, while constant
stream of the cooling, refreshing
and in most cases non-intoxfcat-
ing beverage goes down the throats
of the thirsty ones. Thirsting
for knowledge as well as soda water the
question came, "What is..the most popular
favora" "Vanilla," was the answer, and
the following was also learned during a
moments lull in the demand for the foam
ing liquid: Most Americans who drink
soda water with ice cream call for vanilla
and some for chocolate, but on Thursdays,
being the days that the servant girls have
their outing, the demand for lemon is the
greatest. Colored folks want chocolate,
Italians sarsaparilla, Chinese it makes nc
