SPENCER AS MUSICAL CRITIC.
Philosopher Unable to See Harmony
in Tones of Violin.

Herbert Spencer's opinions were
most decided on topics which he was
not by nature intended to understand
quite so well as those Of orthodox phil
losophy. His musical heresies are
among the most startling. The violin
is to him "the voice of a shrew In a
good temper" He finds this practic.
ally perfect instrument has at least
two chronic defects, "the hiss OF the
bow and the production of high over
tones as it is drawn over the string"
This view leads him to criticise our
orchestras for kissing" for in them
the tones of stringed instruments SC
greatly predominant. Spencer, who
never attended Wagner opera
summed up his views of modern or
chestras, saying: Beauty they can
render, grace they can render, deli
cacy they can render, but where Is
the dignity, where is the GRANDEUR"

Swinging Cradle.

Nobody receives more care and at

seeming to vie with one another in do
ing everything possible to make life
for 1t comfortable. Still, at times the
mother has other duties that need i'm
mediate attention, and unless she has
somebody to help her to take care Of
the baby these duties are left undone.
An Iowa man has devised swinging
cradle, which, he claims, will be
help to all mothers. The cradle is
suspended by means of rods on spir-
al spring, the latter being attached to
beam and brace fastened at any
convenient place. A slight push of the
cradle sets it in motion, the spring
keeping it moving up and down for
quite a long time. Oftentimes all the
baby needs to keep him quiet is
