A health magazine, Omega, says:
The present Emperor of Russia, in
stead of being an invalid just ready to
die, is man of good health and great
ability to work. and he is also a hy-
gienist to far greater extent than is
generally believed, and his physician
is also a hygienist In so far as cleanli-
ness and fresh air are concerned. He
is thus spoken of In relation to the las,
Emperor:
Fresh air was the creed emblaZon-
ed on his banner OF hygiene, and fresh
air he would have at any cost. No
practitioner had more stoutly demand
ed the assistance of this valuable aid to
natures recuperation and his insis-
tence doubtless occssioned much heart
burning among his patients, who. like
many others in our country, nave a
great fear OF fresh air for the sick
room. Zaccharin entertained no such
qualms, and with brusque petulancy
insisted or having doors and windows
opened. When he visited the dying
Car he found him surrounded by the
Czarina and other members of the
family, and ON entering the sick-room,
ignoring the presence of the exalted in
dividUals, he loudly demanded air, re-
marking at the same time, in tones of
deep reproach: What an atmosphere,
1t is disease breeding. And in this air
you allow Russia's little father to diet
And then, without more ado, he rough
ly tore down the curtains and threw
open the windows"

PRIMITIVE MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS.
harmony i'm the civilization of those
earliest rhythmic sounds. There is no
way to prove the existence of vocal
music in prehistoric times, for the pres
ervation of sound was not then q
known art. 1t is, therefore, only to
the remains of musical instruments
that we can look for the verification of
the existence of anything like music in
those times, and for the evidence of
its gradual development.
Musical instruments CT percussion,
like the drum, and rattle, are the most
simple and likely the first to have been
invented. The next in completely are
the wind instruments, and third the
string Instruments. This accepted or
der of invention seems to be borlfe out
by the fact that savages often have
the drum or rattle alone, but never the
wind instrument alone or the string In
strument alone. If they have the wind
instrument they have the drum, and
if they have the stringed instrument
they have the other two. This is true
Of the earliest musical instruments of
both Europe and America, and there
are indications that up to q certain
stage the progress was along similar
lines and mainly In the same degree.
Whether this was the result of some
acquaintance of the prehistoric inhab-
itants of the two continents and of
communication between them it is i'm
possible to say. 1t is apparent, how
ever. that il such communion ever eX-
listed it must have been broken off ut
an early day. for we find that the so
called Old World far outstripped the
so called New, and that only the most
primitive of musical instruments OK
listed here at the time OF the discovery
of America.
The United States National Museum,
in New York, possesses several print.
tive. if not entirely prehistoric. musical
instruments from different parts of the
country, some of them found buried in
the ruins of the civilization that ante
dated the Indians; others collected
from among the most primitive of
these aboriginal tribes. The collection
offers an interesting field for the study
of the beginning and progress of mus
zeal development in the Western World
now embraced in the United States.

1t has been said that vocal music Is

struction of musical instruments was
among the earliest inventions sug-
gested by human ingenuity. There is
no accurate information bearing out this
assertion in it's literal sense. 1t is GER
tain, however, that man in the earliest

sidered the beginning of music as I'M
