Learning to Drum.

How Haydn learned to beat a drum
and the preservation Of the first one
he played make an amusing story.
There was to be great church festi-
val. including q procession through the
streets in which the choristers were as
q matter Of course to take part, but
the drummer falling III. no one could
be found to take his place until the
director called for Joseph Haydn,
showed him how to make the stroke
and left him alone. Joseph found a
meal tub. stretched a cloth over the
top, set Il on a stool and began to
drum away with such vigor that the
stool was soon overturned and him.
self covered with meal. But the
stroke was learned and the spectators
Of the procession found their gravity
unduly taxed by the sight Of little
fellow Of six years beating a big drum
carried before him by a hunch-back,
since a bearer Of ordinary stature
would have raised the instrument far
out Of the drummer's reach. The drum
used on that occasion by Haydn Is
sttll preserved In the choir of the
church at Hamburg.

Who Have "sprung" Something

A famous prima donna had two
rooms OF her town house decorated
with what she called, "The records Of

To be translated, this meant that
her bedroom was papered with leaves
OF music from the operas In which
she had won fame and fortune, and
that her dining room was similarly
decorated with the hotel bills she had
collected-and paid-in every country

B!lIIALs AT ChoSS ROADS
E.eats That Led to :ts Interment Of
: the Suicide With the Executed
Criminal.

In pre-Christian days, suicides were
terribly frequent, and it was general
ly agreed that a man might escape
the burden of life in this manner,
without discrediting his memory.
Christianity with its higher code OF
morals, taught the wickedness and
cowardice of self-murder, In the
strongest terms. When consecrated
churchyards were set apart as the
resting place Of the Christian dead, 1t
was felt that those who died In dead
ly sin. in fragrant rebellion against
their Maker, had cut themselves off
from the faith, and had no right to
await the resurrection with faithful
Christians. They we're believed to
have put themselves outside of So
ciety, and to have forfeited their right
to share its burial privileges. In those
early days, before churches could be
built, 1t was the rule to preach and
conduct divine services at the cross
roads. Wooden and afterwards stone
crosses were erected to mark the stu
alton where services would be held.
Some Of these have been preserved to
this day, being memorials erected to
the dead, or dedications of thanksgiv-
ing. Since suicides might not be bur-
led in the churchyard or other conse.
Grated ground, pity suggested that the
next most holy spot was the ground
near the old cross, where service had
once been held. or was then held. They
buried the poor suicides there. be-
cause they were unwilling to relin-
quish hope for them. Afterward. for
the sake Of greater publicity, the GLIB
bet and the gallows were set up at
the crossroads, and criminals we're
buried beneath them after their exc
cution. The law decreed that suicides
should lie with these criminals, In or
der to mark the detestation In which
the crime Of self-murder was held.
And so what was once a signal OF
Christian hope and charity. became
legal indignity imposed upon the dead
bodies to mark an immensely serious
breach Of the law of the country.

SITTING FURNACE,
stove, CRATE ASH
SAVES MUCH FUEL
U. S. Fuel Administration Urges
Reclamation of All Waste
to Aid Fuel Situation.

Thousands Of tons Of coal can be
reclaimed and proportionate dollars
saved In fuel bills IL the house
holders of the nation will adopt the
simple. homely method Of sitting
their ashes. About Eve bucket
fuls Of coal are thrown away In the
ashes each week by the wasteful
householder. Each bucketful weighs
about nineteen pounds. and fresh nut
coal sold by the bucketful costs about
10 cents each. II this coal Is reclaimed
by sitting the ashes. 1t would repre-
sent q saving Of 80 cents a week and
conserve just so much coal for the
dealer to supply other householders.
The United States Fuel Administra-
ton gives the following directions for
reclaiming coal from ashes:
How - eft Ashes.
Shake the sitter until all the dust
like particles fall through. You will
then have left In your sitter q mix
ture Of black and white-covered pieces
of coal and probably q few clinkers
and pieces Of stone.
Pick out and throw away all stone
Do not throw away clinkers unless
they are thoroughly burned. Coal
will often fuse In such q manner that
the part In the center is not burned.
Break elinkers apart, and II there is
any black substance In them II is
carbon. and they can be burned over
again.
White chunks generally contain q
large amount Of carbon. though their
covering might be soft and have the
appearance Of ashes. Do not throw
them away.
Coal thus recovered should be
spread ON the ground and sprinkled
with water. This will open the seams
In the coal, and when 1t is placed In
the heater the fire will reach and ig-
mite the unused carbon.
1t Is better not to mix the coal thus
reclaimed with fresh coal. Keep it In
a separate pile.
Reclaimed coal should generally be
used on red hot fire, although II can
also be used In banking, fire at night.

The Russian revolution was not
without its lighter side, as the follow
ing account of what happened In Pc
trograd will show:
A woman communist was holding
forth, asserting that ell were equal
and all wealth should be divided
equally. On this a man IN her audi
ence produced coins amounting to
about dollar and one-half from his
pocket. IT agree with you" he re-
marked. "You have convinced me-"
Turning to a bystander he asked him
to change one Of the pieces for him.
He obtained two notes.
Facing the lady orator, he said ::
"This is all the money ! possess. ]
will halve 1t with you," and he held
out the seventy-five cents. She had to
take 1t, and was about to commence
her grafton again when her question
er continued: mo. no. How much
have you in your purse? We must
now divide that. since we are to share
equally In our wealth" Reluctantly
she produced her purse. 1t was open
ed and found to contain twenty dol
lars. The man pocketed ten dollars OF
this, thanked her for her interesting
lecture and withdrew.

November was styled by the ancient
Saxons as wind-month. from the gales
which are so prevalent at this season
OF the year. and which made them
beach their boats and cease almost en-
hsely from maritime operations. It
bore also the name Of the bloody
month. from the circumstance Of Its
being customary to slaughter great
numbers Of cattle. to be sailed for the
winter. November is the eleventh
month Of the year. although Its name
would indicate that 1t was the ninth
month. This Is accounted for by the
change from the old calendar, which
began in March and not In January.
