POSING AT THE PIANO.
Paderewski Thinks That Planists should
Look Effective While Playing.

When PaderewslSi was in New York
he was calling at a prominent Wall
street mans home in Fifth avenue

like 20 have his opinion Of his daugh-

piled that nothing would give him
greater pleasure.
After the young lady had dashed of
several selections Paderewski said:
ITO get the greatest enjoyment from
the piano the music must not only be
heard but the performer should be
seen. The performer should therefore
be careful of his or her position at the
instrument.

AS HARD AS THE DIAMOND.
such Are Two Products of Chemica
Experiment.


The diamond has always been re-
garded as possessing one quality which
placed it beyond rivalry, namely, that
of hardness. There are several gems
which compete with it in beauty, and
at least one, the ruby, when of rare
size and quality, outranks 1t in costh-
ness. But none in the whole list equals
1t in hardness.
diamond cut diamond" has become
n popular saying. The hardest steel
cannot equal the diamond in that re-
spect. The diamond, says recent and
authoritative text book Of chemistry,
'is the hardest form OF matter known. y
But science progresses, and If nature
has set aside for her king of gems the
distinction of unparalleled hardness,
the art of man has not been equally
considerate There are at least two
products of chemical experiment which
have proved, according 70 the great
French chemist, Henry Moissan, TO be
as hard as diamonds.
These are produced from the rare
metal titanium. Monsieur Moissan has
succeeded in preparing titanium in the

one of them slowly counted one, two

no one was touched The seconds
