tree had stood there for no one could

simply hung loaded with burs. The

ANCIENT BELLS.
They Were Often Quadrangular and
Made Of Thin Iron Plates.

They Were Often QuadransuIar and
Made Of Thin Iron Plates.
There are several old bells In Scot
land, Ireland and Wales. The Oldest are
often quadrangular, being made Of
thin iron plates which have been ham,
mered and riveted together. At the
monastery Of st. Gall in Switzerland
the four sided bell of the Irish mission
ary st. Gall, who lived in the seventh
century, is still preserved, but more
ancient still is the bell Of st. Patrick
in Belfast. which is ornamented with
gold and gems and silver filigree work.
The curfew bell Is that about which
most has been written and said. It
has been thought that it was only used
IN England, but it was quite common
on the continent in the middle ages.
The ringing Of bells by rope is still
| very popular in England, especially in
the country. where almost every ham,
let, however small, has it's church with
it's peal Of bells, which are often re-
markably we'll rung The first real
peal of bells in England was sent by
Pope Calixtus III. to Kings college,
Cambridge, and was for 800 years the
largest peal in England. About the
beginning Of the year 1900 sets Of eight
bells were hung in few Of the large
churches.
In the middle Of the seventeenth cen
tury a man named White wrote ia
nous work on bells in which he intro
duced the system Of numbering them
1,2, 3, 4, ETC., on slips of paper in diff.
ferent orders, according to the changes
intended to be rung. 1t is calculated
that to ring all the changes upon TWEEN
ty-four bells at two strokes second
would take III billion years
One Of the most famous bells in the
world is the first great bell Of Moscow
which now stands in the middle of 9
square in that city and is used as 8
chapel. This bell was cast in 1873, bu,
was in the earth for over a hundred
years, being raised in 1886 by the En-
peror Nicholas. 1t Is nearly twent,
feet high. has a circumference of sixt!
feet, is two feet thick and weighs al
most 200 tons. The second Moscow
bell, which is the largest bell in tn
world that Is actually in use, weigh
1913 tons. There are several bells ex
tant which weigh ten tons and over, o
which Big Ben. the largest bell in Eng
land, weighing between thirteen AM
fourteen tons, is one. Big Ben is un
fortunately cracked.-London Globe.
