Weird Music of Moro.

Moro music is strangely unrhythmic-
al to European ears, says a writer in
Everybody's Magazine. 1t consists
mainly of a monotonous reiteration Of
sound. ever a supposed change of air
being almost imperceptible to an ear
unaccustomed to the barbarous lack Of
tone. The Moro piano Is a wooden
frame shaped like the unners Of a
child's sled. on which small kettle
drums are balanced by means of cords
and sticks laid horizontally. These
rather resemble pots for the kitchen
range than musical instruments, but
each is roughly tuned. forming the
eight notes of the scale. Women crouch
ing on the ground before this instru-
ment beat out a wailing sound from 1t
with shaped sticks, while from larger
kettledrums. hung by ropes from a
wooden railing at n side, two men
accompanied the piano, and one old
woman in the background drummed
out an Independent air of her own on
an empty tin pan.

HISTORY OF WHISTLER.
The Picture That Was His Even
Though IL Had Been sold.

A certain Lady So-and-so, who al.
mired Whistler's genius to the extent
Of purchasing one OF his pictures,
never was able to obtain possession OF
her property. One day she drove to
the studio i'm her victoria. Mr.. Wits
kler went out TO the sidewalk to greet
her.
"Afr. Whistler" she said. two years
ago / bought one of your pictures, q
beautiful thing. and I have never been
able to hang il on my walls. 1t has
been loaned to one exhibition or an
other. Now today I have ms carriage
with me. and | would Ike TO take 1t
home with me. | am told il is In your
possess on"
Dear lady" returned Whistler. you
ask the impossible. [ will send it TO
you when ! have it again. but it is not
here. You have been misinformed.'
And so forth. and so forth. to the same
effect. and the lady drove off without
her picture.
After she had departed Whistler
commenced to poke around the studio,
and. to the great establishment Of a
friend who had been an involuntary
listener to the above conversation, he
brought forth a canvas.
"Bere 1t is" he said. "She was right
about one thing-it Is beautiful" And
IT was beautiful.
"But the impudence of these people,
re continued. who think that because
they pay a few paltry hundred pounds
they own my pictures. Why, 1t mere
ly secures them the privilege of having
them II their houses now and then.
The pictures are mine!"-Harper's
Weekly.
