MUSIC is AUDIBLE BEAUTY
Its Charm Results From the Marriage
Of Spiritual Fact With Ma
teriaI Form.

Music is both body and soul, like
the man who delights in it. Its body
is beauty in the sphere of sound
audible beauty But in this very word
beauty is implied soul, moral end,
a meaning of some sort, which makes
1t Of interest to the inner life OF man.
which relates to our invisible and real
self This beauty, like all other, re-
suits from the marriage of a spiritual
fact with material form, from the
rendering external; and an object of
sense that lives in essence only in the
soul. Here the material part which is
measured sound, is the embodiment
and sensible representative, as we'll
as the reacting cause, of that which
we call impulse, sentiment, feeling,
the spring of all our action and ex-
preston. In a word, it is the lam
guage OF the heart-not an arbitrary
and conventional representative, as
spoken or written word is, but a
natural. invariable, pure type and cor.
respondence. Speech is the language
Of ideas. the communication of thought.

pus enthroned in each of us.-John

HE PRAYED FOR LUCY GRAY
Object Of SoIieitude Was Entry
In Steeplechase.

How to win the hearts of his con-
gregation was unconsciously solved by
an innocent young curate. Dean Hole,
in his Letters" tells the following
story:
"A young curate good fellow. but
very shy and bashful, came into
parish which was occupied by York
shire yeomen who bred horses and
rode them and sometimes had steeple-
chases. He did not get on and was
very much depressed.
"One day the clerk said to him: If
you please. sir, the prayers of the
church are desired for Lucy Gray.
Very WE'LL said the curate, and
at every service in which the pray
er for all sorts and conditions of men
was offered the church was asked to
pray for Lucy Gray, till one morn
ing the clerk rushed into the yestry
and said:
You needn't pray for Lucy Gray
any more: she's won tho steeple-
chase
:" Have l been praying for a horse?'
asked the curate. I shall leave the
place
But the clerk said: You'll do
pawt OF the sort. sir; thought little
ot ye when ye came, but now we've
got the hearts of them all and ye
can do what We like in the parish
since We took TO praying for that
horse'"

When the preparations for rebuild
