OLD BEAMS FOR ORGAN PIPES
MeIIowed Into Condition, Wood Is
Then Perfect for Producing
Tonal Effect.

Organ pipes" says a well-known
builder, are made of the best white
pine and the older and better sea
soned the wood, the better the quail
ity of tone given out by the pipe.
In Germany and England, when an
old public building, such as a church,
town hall, or large structure OF any
kind is to be taken down. there is al
ways an organ builder haunting the
place 10 find out of what wood the
roof and floor beams are made, and
If he discovers that they are Of white
pine, he is ready to pay almost any
reasonable. price tor them. provided,
Of course, they are in good condition,
without knots or nail holes. He knows
that many Of these churches and 9th
a. buildings were erected 400 or 500
wears ago. and that through 40 or so
decades, the wood had been slowly
trying and hardening until it has
reached condition which, from the
organ builders point of view, is per-
lection. Then he takes the old beams
home TO his factory, covering them
n transit Win tarpaQnns, cuts them
into boards OF the desired size and
makes his pipes with perfect conf.
dence that the organ he is building
will be musical success.
Most of the old organs of Europe,
that is organs built from 100 to 800
years ago have a mellowness of tone
that distinguishes them from modern
instruments, and although the skill OF
the toner is now lessening the diff
ference between these new pipes and
those that have been seasoned by long
use, there is still a difference between
the old organs and the new. just as
there is between violins made now
and those Cremona instruments that
have mellowed with time.
American organ builders spend no
time looking for old beams, but they
DO keep their lumber seasoning and
drying under shelter for several years
before they use it and then depend on
the toner to make up the difference"

Coming of the Butterfly.

And there is the first butterfly flut-
tering in the sun, and lodging and
racing hither and thither, and doing
not thing but having a good time.
1t is just a little bunch of yellow
wings beating the golden air and cell
ebrating an escape from the prison Of
winter. We hope that little butterfly
is not too previous; that it has re-
ceived some secret information that
the spring time has come to stay; no
more frosts or SHOWS or freezing
breeZes. What havoc these would
play with those yellow wings if they
would come now!
The presence of the butterfly has
excited the cherry and peach buds so
that they are really trying to get out
into the sunlight, too, and viii sue
coed in a few days if the butterfly has
not allured them with false hopes.
Still, we wouldn't trust the butterfly
if we were the buds, but would nestle
in our little calyXes and wait until
the gentle Notus came up and settled
in our midst for good.-Columbus co.

Automatic lie !rcrrovcn1snt.

According TO the head of Austria s
telegraphs, the automatic telephone
can be made to compete seriously
with the manual system. He says that
in New York it takes on the average
16 seconds from the time the sub
scriber removes his telephone re
ceiver to the time the ringing signal
is set; whereas in the automatic sys-
TEN installed in Vienna for 100000
subscribers this work is done in but
ten seconds. Three seconds after the
subscriber hangs up the receiver the
line is clear. Owing TO this saving in
time a larger number of messages can
be delivered through the automatic
exchange than through the manual
exchange.
