THE TEMPERlNG OF BRONZE
knowledge of How to Do II Perished
With Hiram Abif, Man of Tyre,
According to Tradition.

When King Solomon had reached a
certain stage in the building of the
temple of Jerusalem he wanted the
help of metal workers for his people
knew little of that art. Therefore
he sent to his neighbor, Hiram, king of
Tyre traditional descendant of Tubal
Cain. the pioneer of workers in brass
and iron Brass in those days was
not brass, as it is understood now. but
properly bronze. observes the New
York Sun. SO King Hiram sent his
master of craft, Hiram Abif.
The Bible relates that che was
widows son of the tribe of NaphtalI
and his father was a man of Tyre. a
worker in brass, and he was filled with
wisdom and understanding and cum
ming 10 work all works in brass"
Masonry holds Hiram Abif as its
founder and Masonic tradition has it
that this master metal worker was
mons service.
1t seems that Solomon wanted HI
ram Abif to teach one of his men how
to fashion and To mix that wonderful
bronze so that he. too, should have
master of the craft in his own king
dom. News of this came to the ears
of Il lesser artisan, who also had as
pirations Therefore when the temple
was finished and the night before the
man of Tyre was to return TO his ma
tive city he was waylaid and muir
dered after refusing to divulge the
secret of his cunning.
From that day on. the tradition is.
no more of that wonderful material
was made. but existing bronze nipple
ments were melted up and worked
over from time to time that weapons
might be fashioned for the fighting
men.

Most Fragrant Wild Flower.

Readers of the American botanist
have been trying to decide which is the
most fragrant American wild flower,
and their opinions on the subject ex-
hibit remarkable diversity. In New
England the majority give first choice
to the pink aZalea, with the white wa
ter lily second. There are many votes
for the trailing arbutus, but, as the
editor suggests, its fragrance is doubt
less overestimated, owing to the fact
that 1t Is the earliest fragrant Wild
flower of spring Other candidates for
first place are the partridge berry the
common locust. horned badderwort
(of which John Burroughs says: In
warm, moist atmosphere the odor Is
almost too strongly. yellow jessamine,
spotted wintergreen, and some Of the

er is the most beautiful.-Scientitfc

They may be conscious of eye strain
