LANGUAGES OF MUSIC.
The Airs Of Different NatlORR R9HBA
YeVy Much Like TAe1F
Speech.

A French missionary played airs by
Rossini to Chinese mandarin, who,
though a man Of intelligence and culti-
walton, according 10 oriental standards,
shook his head diSapprOvingly. When
pressed to give a reason for the depre-
ciating gesture. he said:
ut is sadly devoid OF meaRMg and
expression, while Chinese music peRe-
trates the soul"
We smile at the absurdity, because to
our ears Chinese music Is the linking to-
0ether Of harsh and unmelodioua
sounds, the mingling Of Crash and
caterwaullng.
Prof. Arlo Bates uses this incident in
bis "Talks on the Study Of Literature"
TO illustrate the fact that there Is con-
veniieAAl language In sound as there Is
in words. BaFharlc folk use alanguage
of music which peRatFates their souls,
but which causes the nerves OF civilized
people to Jingle. Our music seeHS ~
absurd TO them as theirs to us. Neither
understands the musical language OF
the otheF,
The Japsaese complain that our d.
vision of music into regular bars has the
effect of making It "chip-SAsE, chip
chop, chip-chop."
There Is no universal Language In
words or in art. The Greeks, who butt
the ParthsRsR OF wrought the Venus OF
Melos could not have diseeFned beauty
or reverence in the uncouth AgaEes ct
Aztec deities. An Aztec who was moved
by twisted deities clutching one an
other by their plumes would perhaps
have stood without emotion before .

UNCLAIMED BANK BALANCES.
They Amount TO Nearly Half a Mil
lion Dollars in Canadian
Institutions,

Itmay seem strange, says the Toron'
to Monetary Times, that there 10 In tho
banks of Canada a sum approaching
S40O, 0O0-in 1905 It reached $427, 10a and
1907 II was $3s7 .66s-consisting Of UNI
claimed balances. The sums are vari'
GUS, ranging from one cent or q frac'
tion Of o dollar to thousands OF dol
lars. One wonders how many of these
balances arise. We have been told
that many an old man or old woman
will make deposits and not wishing
their relatives to know Of their saw
lngs, will say nothing about the fact.
Should such old persons die the only
way In which this deposit could prob
ably become known would BIO through
the list OF such sums published annual
ly. Again, there are numbers Of per-
sops who, having long had ap account
with q bank, will draw all their money
except one or two dollars. This helps
to account for many a small sum.
Naturally, the older banks have the
larger accumulation OF unclaimed
money in this or other ways. The
Bank Of Montreal and the British
bank have large gums, but the city dis
trict savings bank exceeds either OF
them, having neurly 1000 separate un'
claimed balances, the aggregate OF
which Is over $4,000. 1t is only Of late
years that the government Of Canada
has busted itself In taking custody Of
these funds. Not, presumably, that
they were unsafe In the hands OF the
banks. but perhaps that II was p pa
teFpal duty OF the state to control
Them
