Liszt Invites His Audience to Supper

From the Youths Companion.
 Karl Goldmark, the composer of the 'Queen of Sheba. has been contributing "reminiscences of his long life to German musical magazine. In recent mstalment he gives an interesting account of the magnificent and lavish tastes of some or the celebrated musicians of the past.
 Some of QUE great composers, he writes, "were at heart so much the grand seigneur that their whole manner of life was ostentatious. Chief among these were Richard Wagner, Liszt and Anton Rubinstein. .Brohms on the other hand. who left a large fortune behind him, led as simple life as Beethoven.
 ''Wagners ,dependence on elegant. and luxurious surroundings is we'll known, and this incident throws an interesting light on Liszt expensive and lavish nature.

sas Agricultural College, reported that
July 8, three years ago, he found
English sparrows feeding on the corn
ear-worm. Which would you prefer
to have on the place?
Bradley, another scientific writer,
reports that a sparrow destroyed 500
caterpillars in a day and Samuels
says one killed 1850 caterpillars in a
week. On the other hand examination
has proved that this bird has killed
many insects that were needed on
the farms and that it does much harm
more, probably, than all Its dead cater
pillars are worth.
