Magazine. stands on the very summit
Of hill more than 200 feet high ut
Camp Meeker. u summer resort In So
nomu county, Cal. 1t was Captain
Meeker. an old pioneer, who first con
ceived the idea Of building q tower OH
the very summit of high hill near his
hotel, and while looking around Que
dry for suitable site he found four
young redwood trees standing about
twelve feet apart. representing per-
feet square The trees were each
about $50 feet high. Fifty feet of each
top was Topped off. and the work Of
building Elk stories was then com
menced From top to bottom the liv-
ing tower was a hundred feet high
Each hoor is about u by II feet and
rests on strong timbers. the ends of
which are securely attached to the four
trees by means Of steel cables and
bolts. So strongly was every part
braced that the whole structure does
not move as much as one would natu-
rally suppose. even when rocked by
heavy winds In the building great
care was taken by the workmen to cut
only the branches growing OH the In.
side of the square. and the trees were
not chopped. mutilated or wenkened
any more than could he avoided.
Leading up from each story are
broad stairways. 80 that one may u.s.
cend and descend with ease and per-
feet safety. while around the edge of

vent accidents. Since this tower was
completed the trees have grown and
fourished Just US we'll rs before. This
living tower ia clnimed to be the only

ARITHMETIC OF MUSIC.
Piano Note Vibrations Range From 90
to 1,C2S Per Second.


The pitch of IL musical tone can be
calculated automatically. While the
human voice in song Is something of
an unknown problem. the notes of q
musical Instrument are adjusted ac-
cOrding to the number of vibrations
per second made by each note. The
shorter. finer and tenser the piano
string the greater the Migratory speed
and higher the pitch: the longer, coalS
er and less tense the string the slower
the vibrations, and lower the pitch.
The human ear becomes sensible to
sound when vibrations have speed OF
sixteen per second. AS the vibrations
Increase the pitch asccnds until 10000
are attained. when the result is inaudi
bile. The practical range on the piano
Is from 80 vibrations to 4,O06
Thilty-two vibrations is the number
designated for tile note of C, three oc.
tavcs below middle G on the piano.
The next c has twice the number Of
brations-ti: the next twice that"

taves. the Successive C's vibrate, re-

times per second. The pitch of the
intervening notes is regulated proper
tionully according to the chromntic
scale
These figures have not always been
the same. The early instrument max
ers of Europe had many disputes con-
ccrniMg thc measurement of the mu-
sic:ll strings and pipes that determined
the pitch.
The A string OF the violin gives the
tuning note for G.chestras On the pi-
uno il is the ii.st \ above middle G..
From early times to the middle of the
nineteenth century this pitch note va
ricd from 81 to AS vibrations per sec.
ond. but 100 proved to be the most ac-
ecrtable pitch.
In close calculations temperature has
some influence. so that some experts

accuracy than within five vibrations

HID THE HANDKERCHIEF.
There Was Time When It Was an
Uncomfortable Article.

Unmentionable Article.
The evolution of the pocket handker-
chief is odd and interesting. There
was a time when it was an unmention-
able thing an article to be kept out
of sight and referred to only in a whis
per. In polite conversation it was care
fully avoided and, as to ones being
caught using handkerchief, it meant
social ostracism.
This state of things obtained up to
the time Of the first Napoleon, when the
Empress Josephine brought 1t forward
for n personal reason. The only defect
in her beauty was an irregularity of
the teeth, and to hide this she used a
delicate little handkerchief, which from
time to time she raised to her lips
Thus she was enabled to laugh occa.
sionally. Seeing that 1t was a case Of
either laughter going out or handkcr-
chiefs coming into fashion, the court
ladies adopted the pretty pieces of cam.
brio and lace.
In England the evolution of the arti.
Gle which is now so openly displayed
by women was equally slow. There
was a time when it was forbidden to
mention it on the stage or to make use
of 1T even In the most fearful situation.
while the people in the gallery and the
pit shed their tears into their laps.
Even when it was mentioned for the
first time in one of Sl,akcspeare's plays
it was received with misses and general
Indignation by the audience. Little by
little, however, the prejudice gave way.
and time came when the handker
chief could be tlourished in broad day
light.
