The P1anOfOrte.

The pianoforte was directly evolved
from the clavichord and the harpsi-
chord. In I'LL Scipione Maffei gave
detailed account of the first four in
struments, which were built by Bartol-
ommeo Cristofori, named by him piano
forte, and exhibited in 1909.
Marius in France exhibited harpsi-
chords, with hammer action, in 1716,
and Schroter in Germany claimed to
have invented the pianoforte between
1717 and 1921. Marius at first was
generally credited with the invention,
for it was not until 1888, when Cristo-
forts instruments had become famous,
that the Italian advanced his claim,
and it was in 1863 that he brought for
ward the proof Of his contention.
Pianos Of that period were shaped
like the modern grand, the first square
piano being built by Freiderica, an or
gan builder of Saxony, in 1858. The
first genuine upright was patented in
England and the United States by John
Isaac Hawkins an Englishman, in 1900

NEW ELECTRIC LAMP.
Bulb Which 1t Contains Said to
Burn $500 Hours.

Bulb Which 1t Contains Said to
Burn $500 Hours.
Consul 3. T. LiefeId forwards from
newspaper concerning a new electric
lamp which it Is said will revolution
lie the present system of lighting. The
article was wired from Vienna and
reads:
can Austrian chemist, DR.. Hans
Kuzel, has, after many years. hard
work, succeeded in constructing a new
electric lamp which he calls the Syrius
lamp. AS Is we'll known, incandescent
gaslight Is cheaper than electric light,
because the filament wires Of the light
are very expensive and the glass bulbs
soon wear out. DR.. Kuzel has now in
vented a new substitute for the glow
thread by forming out Of common and
cheap metals and metalloids colloids
in plastic mass which can be handled
like clay and which when dry be-
comes hard as stone. Out Of this mass
very thin wire threads are then sharp
ened, which are Of uniform thickness
and Of great homogeneity. These two
characteristics are Of great value in
the technics Of incandescent lamps.
The Kuzel or Syrius lamp hardly
needs one-quarter Of the electric cur
rent which the ordinary electric lamp
with a f1lament wire requires. Expert
ments, 1t Is asserted, have shown that
the lamp can burn for $500 hours at
a stretch. Another advantage is that
the intensity Of the light Of the new
lamp always remains the same, the
lamp bulbs never become deadened, as
Is now the case. The new lamp, it is
said, will be put on the market soon.

A Gentle Hint.

Il got a neat rebuke for my curiosity
once" said a well-known Baltimore
man, land it was administered to me
by a native Of the Cheat river region
in West Virginia.
Il had stopped overnight in the dis
trict in question, and in the morning
was strolling about the place, asking
all sorts Of questions. Presently 1 met
lanky mountaineer, who greeted me
with 'Howdy' and passed the time of
day most pleasantly. Seeing that he
was barefooted, a circumstance. it
seemed to me, quite odd in a noun
famous region, asked:
Is it the custom Of this country
for the men to go without shoesY
Waal,' the native drawled, some
on us do, but most on us atten's to our
own business. "-Lippincott's.
