Curious Facts.

These are some of the names revered
by violin lovers, and whose productions
are priced not only by musicians for
their superior musical qualities, but by
these connoisseurs who love viOlins for
their beauty of form only.
There is something almost supernat-
ural about a violin. At least that is
what violin makers have held from the
days of its early development to the pres
ent time 1t is well known that in COM
parison to the great number of violins
turned out by the old masters only
few We're considered worthy of being
known as products of their skill. 1t was
all on account of a lack of that pecu1-
iarly elusive quality of tone which was
SO necessary to distinguish the violin
from the fiddle - The old makers
found the same difficulty to contend
with which frets the modern violin
builder.
Two violins may be made from the
same materials and by the same hand,
and one will possess all the qualifca-
tions Of a first class instrument, while
the other will be so inferior as to be
worthy only of a place in the category
of ''fiddles. - To still further illustrate:
A slab of perfectly seasoned Swiss syca-
more may be split in half and one half
taken for the back of one violin and the
other half used for the back of another
instrument.
The bellies of the two instruments
may be fashioned from opposite halves
of a slab of seasoned Swiss pine. This
rule may be followed throughout in the
construction of all of the So separate
parts of d violin. The completed instru-
ments may have been calipered to
within a hairbreadth of each other
sions, and yet upon the application of
the bow one will be found to be worth
$500 and the other So. One has the tone;
the other has not Why this should be
is a secret too profound for scientists or
| philosophers to fathom.

| I found Mr.. Brady in his little work
shop at Palisades Park, Bergen county,
/ N J., among his beloved violins.
/ He was surrounded by instruments OF
! all sorts and conditions, from the COM
! mon shop fiddle to q dehcately modelled
and highly priced CremOna-
! The old Crenlona was there to be used
as a standard of excellence which would
be reached by the cheap violins before
/ they passed from under his magic ma
/ nipulations
Sometimes, he said, ST can hardly
realize that it has been left for me to
/ invent the simple device which, had it
been known 800 years ago, would have
! spared the old makers many bitter dis
appointments Here it is 1t isn't
much to look at, is it?'' and the old
gentleman took up little piece of met
al of peculiar form and weighing less
than an ounce troy.
1t appeared to be made of bell metal,
| and as he balanced it upon the tips of
his fingers and struck it lightly with a
pencil it gave out sound rather like a
10y cymbal-
