The Example of pnEanfui.

A story is told of how Pasanini once
came into the concert room, took the
violin and touched the strings. First
one string broke, and smile went
round the room; then another string
broke, and there was more audible ex-
preston of mockery When a third
string broke, many people laughed out
right at his discontinue But Paga-
mini stood forth with his violin as
though nothing had happened and
played on the one string, and the peo-
pie ceased to smile, but listened spell
bound Some of those who had derid-
ed him began to weep, and some even
prayed.
Many Il man had fallen helpless by
the wayside when some great catas-
trophe turned the current of his life
aside. The brave man pushes forward
with one remaining talent and plucks
victory from defeat.

The Common Chord.

James Buckham, one of our minor
poets, put into beautiful verse an Incl
dent which occurred during the civil
war. He calls 1t The Common Chord ,"
The incident was this: Two great ar
mics. one wearing the blue and one
the gray, were drawn up in prepara-
tion for battle. AS the evening fell the
bands began to play Dixie" by the
southerners was followed by Yankee
Doodle" by the northerners, and MA
ryland, My Maryland" drew out Hail
Columbia" beautiful Girl of the
South" was answered by "Just Before
the Battle, Mother" Each side mock
ed and jeered the others music and
cheered their own until the stars came
out and silence fell.
Then, sweet and low, band far up
the line began to play "Home, Sweet
Home" Another and another Joined
until all the bands on both sides were
playing in unison, and, stronger and
more beautiful still, the men on both
sides were singing the words. The
common chord had been struck, and
the thousands of combatants were at
one with the sentiment, There's no
place like home"

The Indian Duck Trick.

y little tin or earthen pan or some
times half cocoanut shell supported
on three stones is filled with water on
which is sprinkled red powder, rem
dering 1t practically Opaque. A little
duck of wood or porcelain is placed
upon the surface, where it at first
floats, but at the command of the per-
former suddenly dives, remaining sub
merged until again ordered to rise.
This very ingenious trick depends
upon the fact that in the bottom of the
vessel there Is minute hole through
which passes a hair One end of this
is attached to the duck; the other re-
mains at the disposal of the performer
and is attached, by means of pellet
of wax, to his tomtom or to one of the
hands with which he beats it. When
he wishes the duck to dive, he pulls
the hair. When he desires it to rise,
he relaxes the pull.
There is naturally some amount of
leakage through the pinhole, and to
cover this the performer takes care,
when filling the pan, to accidentally O.
spill Il little water. The ground being
thus already wetted, the fact that it
gets a little more is not noticed
