Music.

All true arts are expressive, but
they IRE diversely so. Take music; It
Is without contradiction the most
penetrating, the profoundest the most
intimate art. Extraordinary
things are recounted of the ancient
music. And it must not be believed
that the greatness of effect supposes
here very complicated means. No.
The less noise music makes, the moro
1t touches. Give some notes to Pergo-
lese, give him especially some pure
and sweet voices, and he returns q
celestial charm, bears you away into
infinite spaces, plunges you into in
eifabie reveries. The peculiar power
of music is to open to the magma
ton limitless career, to lend itself
with astonishing facility to all the
moods of each one, to arouse or calm.
with the sounds of the simplest mel
ody, our accustomed sentiments, our
favorlte affections. In this respect
music Is without a rival.-Victor Con.

Some folks always see things
through indigo glasses. Neither rea-
son nor evidences of success can
change the hue Everything is on the
road to ruin and the talk is the kind
that drops the bottom out of a fellows
ambitfsas. The only way to get peace
when they are around is to keep them
50 busy that they do not have time
10 use the hammer. If You can keep
their minds off themselves there is
chance to have some good work from
them. They are often skillful enough
If you can only get them busy. And
as long as you can keep them busy
they have no time to think about
themselves. And you may be one Of
these folts. If you are, get busy and
stay busy Tt's the only way TO be
