The "Miracuious" or "Hoiy Thorn"

At Glastonbury abbey in Somersetshire,
England, once stood thorn tree which it
is said bloomed every Christmas morning
The first authentic account Of it ever writ
ten was in 1772 by Mr.. Eyston, who tells
of it in the account of his visit to the alb
hey. The keeper assured Mr.. Eyston that
St, Joseph of Arimathea landed not far
from the town, at a place where there was
formerly an oak that had been planted 10
his memory; that he and his companions
marched to hill and rested themselves,
and that Joseph stuck his staff in the
ground.
Now, this staff was common dry haw-
thorn stick, but it grew and first came into
full flower on Christmas day. Afterward
the tree, which had thus grown and budded
like Aaron's rod, always bloomed ON the
day of Our Lords nativity and upon no
other day, the flower, like that Of the night
blooming cereus, lasting but few hours
Many queer stories have been told of the
miraculous Thorn of Glastonbury" 1t
was said that il the chips from it We're
planted they would sprout and grow like
potatoes; that the leaves cured all infiam-
nations, swellings, etc, and that rods
cut from it would never leave marks on the
children corrected by their use.-St. Louis
Republic.

Japanese Music.

The appreciation of japanese music can
scarcely prove an easy requirement to Eu
ropeans. Apart from the feebler quality of
the tone of the instruments and its singu-
lar character, japanese music takes eX-
tremely complicated forms aud demands
the most delicate phrasing to express its
individuality. My own experience" re,
marked Mr.. Pigott, has been that even in
the first grade tunes it required 20 or 80
lessons to enable one to grasp the delicate
nuances of many of the passages" He ex
presses the opinion that unless Japanese
musicians come and play to us in England
accurate knowledge of their art and appre-
citation of their craft can only arise in the
west very gradually.
The best way to appreciate Japanese mu-
sic is to hear it performed by native musi-
clans, without preDossessions of any kind
or the prejudiCes Of travellers, and to hear
1t with ears undebauched-as an eastern
critic might put it-by the modern orches
ira for custom in this matter as in 9TH
ers, is somewhat of tyrant 1t is hardly
possible, indeed that the music of the sami-
sen heard for the first time in japanese
streets should be appreciated by the tourist
accustomed to such street harmonies as are
afforded by the cornet soloist. the piano or
gan or the German band.
japanese music should be studied, in
fact. as the youthful Japanese learn it, by
the ear only and experience of the instru-
ment, for it is one of the many paradoxes
of the art that it is taught entirely by rote
and chiefly by blind professors. Women
and blind men comprise the musical
profession in Japan. 1t is odd that peo-
pie cultivating music on these terms should
possess music books at all or be at the pains
of devising a system of notation.-Saturday

Iu this progressive age it is only natur-

thereat. But what strikes INT as sad is
the way in which these latter discoveries
bear upon those who have consistently

that the majority of people who live long

Not only is it a very fine thing to go to

SAYS the %corrupter of youth, tends TO

the wrong kind of constitution for early
rising, the practice may carry you OH III
the flower of youth. This is a serious
matter and must be scanned. Most or us
know lin our hearts, that early rising Is
unchristian, if not unscrtptural, aud that
