you couldn't tell what might hap
pen. Anything and everything was lia-
BILE to stick and make more or less
noise when you finally got 1t open. A
window might stick at first and then
go up with a bang. I've had a door
open on me that way-6y open all of a
sudden after I'd been pushing on it a
long time and let me through the door
way on TO the floor. There's always
danger, for instance in pulling out a
drawer that sticks of pulling it clean
out and letting it drop.
'"There's constant danger of some
thing of this sort happening, and it
doesn't pay to take the chances. And
it's easy enough to know when to stay
home. My rule was never to try to do
any work in weather that would rust

This is from fragment of piano fin
gering left by Chopin: mo one notices
inequality In the power of the notes of
a scale when it is played very fast and
equally as regards time. In n good
mechanism the aim is not to play ev-
erything with an equal sound. but to
acquire a beautiful quality of touch
and perfect shading.
''For long time players have acted
against nature In seeking to give equal
power to each finger. On the contrary,
each finger should have an appropriate
part assigned 1t. The thumb has the
greatest power, being the thiclSest fin
ger and the freest. Then comes the lit
tie finger, Mt the other extremity of the
hand. The middle finger Is the main
support of the hand and is assisted by
the first. Finally comes the third, the
weakest one.
"Asto this Siamese twin of the middle
finger some players try to force 1t with
all their might to become Independent,
a thing impossible and most likely un-
necessary. There are, then, many diff
fcrent qualities of sound, just as there
are several fingers. The point is to
utilize the differences, and this, in other
words, Is the art of lingering. Hume

Taking Sunday Collections.

An old and not yet obsolete mode of
taking a collection in Scotch church
is by means of ladle-a small wooden
box at the end of a straight wooden
shaft about four and half feet long,
the top of the box being sufficiently
open to receive contributions of money.
For all special collections this was the
usual mode in the chief churches Of
Edinburgh when | was a boy at school
there 80 years ago. but it has gradually
gone out of fashion and is not often to
be seen nowadays.
For ordinary Sunday collections the
general custom has been to have a
metal plate or basin on small table
at the church entrance superintended
by an elder-a mode which was often
called the brod. When ladies' are used,
they are handed round the congregation
by elders after the sermon or after the
last psalm, and the common Scotch
phrase to "lift' the collection may have
come from this custom.-Notes and
Queries.

Imsects Become Intoxicated.

IntoXication from the nectar and pol
len of plants has been subject of in
vestigation by DIR. j. NJ. Weir, Jr. This
affects insects, and it appears that the
cosmos flower is specially potent as q
source of drunkenness in bees and 9th
er nectar loving creatures. A bee 50
drunk that it could scarcely get upon
its legs was taken to the laboratory
and placed about two inches from a
cosmos blossom. 1t Immediately stag
gered to the flower and began to suck
the nectar and in n few moments tum-
bled over, n senseless and almost inert
victim of appetite. Drunken beetles
found under the blossoms prove that
the pollen must have the same effect
as the nectaries.
The eXperimenter swallowed a half
teaspoorful of the pollen and in about
10 minutes experienced feeling of ex-
hilamtion, with acceleration of the
pulse and warmth. An injection into
the arm of half a dram of liquid dis
TILED from an infusion of the hectares
caused exhilaration for half an hour,
followed by nausea.

What is "a reasonable state of intoXl-

A somewhat similar indefiniteness OF

that I'VE, the jury, find the defendant
almost guilty."
