Modern Music.

Modern music is music. Before it
there was no harmony. The first at
tempts at harmony were naturally
crude. Guido of Arezzo devised nota-
tion by lines and spaces. Franco Of
Cologne first indicated the duration of
notes by diverse forms. Bars were in
troduced later and modern music de-
velOped more decided rhythm, though
at first guided by the ear and not by
science. Joaquin Dupres of Flanders
began the blending Of musical art in
the fifteenth century, which was con-
tinued in the seventeenth century by
Palestrina of Rome. The opera great
ly extended music in the sixteenth cen
tury, and the honor of perfecting the
opera and orchestral music is divided
between Italian and German compos-

A Duel In Balloons.

men, especially one NJ. de Grandpre

came jealous Of each other and decid-

of their predicament. 1t was to be a
duel without hatred, and so they post
poned the great event for one month.
Meanwhile they came to the conclu-
sion that an ordinary duel wouldn't do
at all and hit upon the idea Of fighting
in the air. So they ordered two bal
looms constructed exactly alike and on
the night of June % settled their af-
fairs in anticipation Of the great event
upon the morrow. At the appointed
hour each man entered his balloon
armed with blunderbuss, and at a
signal the ropes were cut, and up they
went They were to fire at the bal
looms, not at each other. At height

which fumes of cyanide of potassium

inside of the car at each end. These
are connected with perforated pipe

the car just in back Of the outer frame

Doing Things.

tial element of duty. In analyzing men
for detail duty on the canal l found
that the man with military training
had an advantage in knowing how to
obey. Service is nothing more than
obedience in a broad sense. II you
escape duty you avoid action. Stern
duties do not require harsh commands.
knowledge of our duties is the most
essential part Of the philosophy Of life."
Goethals once remarked: "The world
demands results. 1t is recorded that
Lord Kitchener, when subordinate

explain failure to obey orders, said:

best ever heard. Now go and do

New York hotels been so crowded,
Broadway SO packed with motors, the
theaters SO full of people, TICKETS so
hard to, get. prices so high, Old gener-
al prosperity so complacently stalking
down the glittering alley. 1t Is safe to
say that the season Of 1867, In New
York. was the most prosperous ever
known to the theater manager, writes
Walter Prichard Eaton In the Ameri-
can Magazine.
One day in January at II o'clock In
the morning saw seven motors stand
Ing by the curb on one block Of Fifth
avenue, oil Of them 1917 models. and
the cheapest OF the seven costing over
5000. The most expensive cost ut
least S1o,580, two others cost at least
$1,000. and the other three, $4,000.
There was at least, $4,000 worth Of
brand-new machinery, employing prob
ably dozen men and burning up pre-
cious gasoline, for the sole-purpose Of
enabling seven women to ride.

What One Little Girl Did.

Traffic delays make everybody fret
and impatient. Recently, however, q
little girl caused traffic of all kinds on
upper Broadway in New York to stop
stock still for five minutes and while
the holdup was on, the child had the
novel experience of being smiled at by
persons who had never smiled at a
track-block before. The little girl,
with loaf OF bread and two bask cts
of strawberries In her arms, essayed
to cross Broadway ut Its busiest cor
ner. A long string Of automobiles was
waiting north and south, and both cars
and autos were about to start east and
west. The little girl was In the exact
center of the crossing. when both bas-
kets Of strawberries tumbled from her
arm. She screamed, dropped the bread
and held up her hands also, and for
FIVE minutes the little girl scurried
about picking up the berries. And for
once In the hurried course Of New
York traffic no one seemed In any
hurry.

TRICKS OF THE SH0PLlFTER
This New York Man Used Fishhook
and Line to Pull Desired Article
Up Into His Sleeve.

A man walked into big New York

have seen nothing unusual in the way
he leaned over the counter and fin-
gered the silks, but to the store detec-

for crooks and light-fngered customers,
his actions appeared suspicious.
Moving casually In his direction, she
heard him say: "These things are no
good. You see it's my wife's birthday
tomorrow and want to get her some
ching nice. Please see If you haven't
something better" The clerk turned
to take down more pettlcQats from the
shelves, and while she was thus en-
gagged the detective saw a silk skirt
rise from the counter and crawl al
most like live thing up the volumin-
GUS sleeve Of the mans coat.
She had him taken to the Office.
There four silk skirts and several
dainty, expensive pieces of merchan-
disc were taken from his sleeves, His
method OF operating was readily dis
covered; string with big fishhook
attached to It's end ran up his sleeve.
While he fingered over the goods, pre-
tending to examine them, he would
deftly thrust the hook into whatever
pleased his fancy. Then he would

The addition of sawdust appears to
Increase the tendency of concrete tc

this difficulty.
Concrete Of these proportions Is
