MUSICAL MOUNTAINS.
Singing Cliffs IN the pyrenees and
Roaring Sands In Hawaii.

Singii.s Cliffs IN the pyrenees and
Roaring Sands In Hawaii.
In certain parts of the world are
mountains and hills which are said by
the natives to sing In the Pyrenees
certain cliffs emit plaintive sounds re-
sembling the strains of harp. Two
other cliffs in the same chain are called
the "snorers." When the wind is in
the southwest they send forth a Pc
cullar sound not altogether musical.
The faces of these cliffs are marked
by deep gullies, open In front. which
may be compared to the pipes of an
organ. At certain times a stratum of
air, held between the cliffs and border
Ing trees, closes the openings while the
wind blows freely between through
the gullies, or organ pipes, behind:
hence the music that is heard.
At the confluence of the Orinoco and
the Rio Meta are granite cliffs which
sing at sunrise. Humboldt refers TO
the phenomenon as the musical stones
Of the Orinoco. The music is caused by
the rush of the expanding air through
assures partly closed by mica.
Many more examples might be cited
to show that nature makes use of prin-
ciples which have been adopted by
man in the creation OF musical sounds.
Nor are the musical sounds Of nature
confined to rocks, mountains and hills,
for in Hawaii is sand bank fifty feet
high which. when the hand is moved
about in the loose sand. produces a
sound like that Of melodeon. II Is
said that II the observer slides down
the bank on his back. dragging both
hands in the sand, the sound becomes
as loud as faint thunder. Harpers

Wide Apart In Temperament Were
Thomas and Jane Carlyle.
That the Carlyles were an IN assort-
ed couple no one could deny. She was
a highly strung nervous woman. very
quick, able and impatient. disappoint-
ed with her married life and her posi-
ton, Jealous of the admiration which
Carlyle received at the hands of all
his admirers. especially of one or two
women, whom she found very unsym-
pathetic.
That Carlyle adored her there is lit
tie doubt. He loved her with all the
rough, passionate power OF his nature,
character ard lacking in all the little
outward signs of devotion and affec-
ton which 40 many women exact and
the absence of which they resent most
bitterly.
Mrs. Carlyle found herself tied to an
irritable genius who. sensitive at every
point, deeply devoted to her, but abso-
lutely incapable of translating that
love into the language which she
craved and longed for remember
her once saying to me In n bitter way
my dear. whatever you do. never
marry a philosopher" and that was
the key TO the enlgma-the woman al
ways hungering for proofs of the de-
votion In which the whole of her daily
life was wanting. From Lady st. He

That as has been said. the oldfashloned county
fair hasn't been changed beyond recognition, even
TO this day Is all the more a matter OF surprise
when we take into account tho revolutionary
changes that have taken place In other phases
OF rural life. The introduction OF rural free de.
livery. for instance. has done away with tho
necessity anu the opportunity for those friendly
gatherings at the crossroads store when the farm.
ers who drove over for the. mail stole u little
leisure In which to swap stories. Similarly n
photograph In every farm house has somewhat
dulled the appetite for those periodic concerts
at the little red school house. even the presence

biles has knocked all the romance out OF those
buggy rides In the moonlight when old Dobbin
