PIANOFORTE AND THE PUBLIC

PIANOFORTE AND THE PUBLIC.
The pianoforte is no longer an article
of luxury, designed exclusively for the
professional musician, or the rich of
musical taste or purchased as parlor
ornapent to be set up against the wall
and kept sacredly locked, except. on
the occasion of some important family
festivity. On the other hand it has be-
come household necessity.
Our children are taught their notes at
school with their other lessons almost
simultaneously, and it becomes parents
duty to furnish their children with
musical instrument, as the importance
OF knowledge of music becomes more
and more recognized and the superior
instruments to express musical thought
is introduced. There are no other in
struments comparable to it for soul
moving power. 1t has advanced the
art of music itself and consequently de-
veloped musical taste and knowledge
throughout the universe. Music adj
vances civilization and makes better
men and women; it j. the life of society.
In olden times, almost all entertain
ments We're sought away from home and
in public. Now, especially with the
more educated, recreation, to which the
piano contributes more than anything
else, is to be found at home and within
the family circle. Even steam and sail
ing vessels for passengers are obliged by
the fixed habits of society to be furnished
with pianofortes. OF course, we do not

cARvEs GRANITE WITH AIR TOOLS.

An industry in which pneumatic tools bid fair to
effect a revolution IS the working of granite. Up

much time and muscle his task the workman
has simply to guide the pneumatic chisel over the

is very great. The work is done rapidly and
more cheaply by these tools than by hand. and II
might also be said. efficiently. for pneu-
of-the-way places in which there would not be
room to strike a blow with ordinary hammer.
Aberdeen is the centre OF the granite industry in

of a pneumatic plant is the compressor, or pump.

SOME ANCIENT COINS.

About fifteen years ago Judge Victor Clay Bar
ringer was living in Alexandria Egypt Wheh al
extensive fire occurred. After this fire he bought
from a native a mass which appeared to consist
of corroded copper, which he told had been
obtained from a hole in a wall where a building
had been demolished in the Confagration This
compacted green cylindrical mass Of about twenty
nounds weight was kept a hearth ornament, and
not examined until 1t recently came into the pos
session Of Dr. Paul B. Barringer, Of the University
of Virginia The mass then bore the imprint or
the woven bag in which it had been confined and
nroyed to be composed OF coins in various stages OF
corrosion.
The author was requested to clean off a number
oS the coins of which there were probably 300. anu
so far as examined all prove to have belonged to
the reiRus of the Caesars and to have had the same

AS have racers and cart horses. the Arabs

of camelS severay adapted for riding and for

racing camels that the name drOmecary alone APP
plies, that this ternl-the Greek equivalent OF
Observation-Disclosures merely d breed and not a par
tCular species. All the camels of Arabia and
Africa as well those employed in India, belong
to the single-humped species, which is a lightly
built and long-linbcd animal in comparison with
its double-humped relative, the Bactrtan camel Of
Central Asia. Not improba bly, of the herds of
the latter species which found in the neighbor-
hood of the Cobb Desert are the descendants of
aboriginally wild animals: but the Arabian camel
is quite unknown in wild state. and we are even
ignorant of its birthplace, although it is quite
likely that this may have been North Africa or
the neighbcrhOOd of the Arabian Desert. For
traversing desert tracts CamelS are absolutely IN
dispensable. and for this purpose they have been
introduced into Australia and Arizona. where some

THE ALEXANDER COLUMN.

The young King of Italy is a good judge OF art
and his visit to the Car was struck by nothlng
so much as the Alexander Column before the Win

possesses the famous Traian and Antonine pillars
besides fifteen great Egyptian monoliths shaped
hundreds OF years before Moses was born: but the
Alexander Column is the largest single stone ever
cut and polished by human hands. 1t Is said that
when Alexander I entered Paris with the alheo
