THE cIrv's GROWTH.

Every citizen, not only of Gaines
vile but of Alachua county, should
feel gratified at the wonderful growth
of this city for the past two and a
half years. 1t not only eXemplities
the healthy condition Of Gainesville,
but the entire surrounding country,
as Gainesville could not prosper with
out the prosperity of her surroundings.
The new directory, which, for sew
eral unavoidable reasons has been de-
layed but which the compiler and
publisher hopes to have before the
public before great while, will show
a most remarkable increase. In June,
1905, the city's population was 1924,
and the new directory will show 1885
An increase of about thirty.three

TIL. primitive Violin.

In Its primitive form the violin was
a direct development of the Tyre and
monochord-the strings from the for
mer and the elongated box, with its
sound holes, finger board and movable
bridge, from the latter. The history
of the violin began with the invention
of the bow some time before the thir-
teenth century, when the wolfe, or vielle.
used by the troubadours, made Its ap-
pearance. This instrument underwent
many changes until the middle of the
sixteenth century when the true violin
model appeared The primitive violin
had little or no contour 1t was not
until the thirteenth century that the
vielle was scooped out at the waist.
The corner blocks were added In the
fifteenth century and are attributed
to Germany. For nearly century
the sound holes were shifted all over
the instrument before they were cut
In their proper place and the bridge
fixed between them.-Circle Magazine
