Musical Genius GGUe
Piano TO the World

Johann Sebastian Bach, one Of the
greatest Of musical geniuses. was al
one time a piano tuner, and 1t was
through his efforts that music reached
its present range, a writer in the Kan
sas City Star informs us. Before
Bach's time musicians had only a linn
tied number Of keys in which to write
music. as they could not time their in
struments to other keys, and as re
suit all music written prior to 100 is
very much alike in tune. Bach labored
ceaselsssiy on the harpsichOrd, fore
runner of the piano, until he discov-
cred the los. notes hidden ia the
strings. Then he began to write music
In keys hitherto unknown to his COM
patriots. At first they did not take
kindly to his variations OF chords and
intermixing Of many strange sounds
and called him a musical fanatic.
Later, however, Mozart, upon hearing
one Of Bach's pieces, exclaimed:
'"Thank Heayeni here at last is some
thing new that / can learn from"
Then followed such great masters as
Chopin, Schumann, List and Ruben
stein who adored and played Bach.

Dogs of St. Bernard
Find .SnosU Handicap

The dogs to be found today In the
great and little st. Bernard passes In
Switzerland are Of a smaller and less
striking type than formerly. They are
a cross between the Newfoundland and
the sheep dog of the Pyrenees. They
have been credited, moreover, with
rather more than they can perform.
says Charles Lincoln Preston In the
Motor Travel Magazine.
A Swiss professor Of Geneva. given
to making adventurous cross-country
journeys on skis, relates that on one
occasion. when he was within sight IF
the great st. Bernard hospice, the
dogs came rushing out, but were I'M
able to reach him through the soft
snow, in which they fioundered hope
lessly. He is of the opinion that the
uses of the amous dogs are more lim-
tied than is popularity supposed. One
can conceive them as being highly
serviceable in tracking a weary way
farer overcome by a sudden blizzard
on the road itself, but even st. Ber-
nard dogs cannot walk over snow that
is both deep and soft.

VISIT to birthplace
Upset "Diuine Sor0Ea"

II Is generally believed, and the En-
cyclopedIa Britannica records, that
Sarah Bernhard, the noted actress,
was born In Paris and that her par
ents were a mixture of French and
Dutch and Of Jewish descent, but the
most recent version of her origin says
she was born in Amsterdam, Holland,
of Jew parents. The authority for
this version Is Lyon van Lyer of Am
sterdam, who revealed the purported
true story Of the actress birth at
dinner in Amsterdam not long after
Sarah Bernhardt's death. He claimed
that her father was his brother. Van
Lyer related that once when the Di-
vine Sarah visited Amsterdam, she
sought him and asked to be shown the
place where she was born 1t was
squalid, underground ROOM and when
they arrived, blind, decrepit beggar
lay on a bed Of rags in one corner.
The actress collapsed on a rickety
chair and burst into tears. Suddenly
she leaped up, flung 1,000-franc note
on the table in the center of the room
and fed up the steps and out into the
street.-New York Evening Post.

The passengers in the big car speed

"PIontotion of Ulster"

The Ulster plantation was the colo
nization Of a large part Of Ulster, Ire
land, by English and Scottish settlers,
16O9-11. The troubles Of the early
Seventeenth century resulted in the
forfeiture Of large part Of Ulster to
the crown. In 1908 a commission was
appointed to determine what to do
with the lands. 1t was proposed to
colonize the whole district with re-
tired civil and military servants and
colonists from England and Scotland.
The lands were divided into portions
Of 1000, 1900 and 1000 acres, and
each large proprietor was bound to
build a castle on his estate and for
hidden to ALLEVIATE the land to Irish
men.

The Bright Side

The seventh girl baby had recent
ly arrived in the family. much to the
disappointment of the parents, who
were anxious for a son.
One day the parents were lament
ing the fact that the new baby was
not a boy. The little six-year-oId
daughter, who was present and heard
the conversation, said: ''Now, mamma,
would not worry as the baby mag
turn out to be boy yet"

Early Head Covering

The earliest form Of hat known, ac-
eording to some historians, was the
circular, close-fitting cap, worn either
plain or braided. Ancient pictures
show that it was worn by captives
from Palestine in Assyria, and it ap-
peared also on the heads of the pic
tured deities and sculptored deities
among the heather tribes.
The Greeks in early times wore two
kinds of hat, the "pileus" and the
"petasus." The former had no brim,
while the latter was made Of felt and
had wide brim to protect the wearer
from the sun. 1t is believed that the
present-day felt hat is its direct de-
scendant.-New York Times.

kLouers and Cotna

Plenty of money has always gone
into floral exhibitions, and this is lit
orally true in England, where florist
has succeeded in getting delicate tints
with the aid of silver coins. He drops
silver coins In water in which the flow
ers are standing. Silver hydroxide Is
formed and the action Of the chemical
changes the natural color Of the bios
SONS, giving them shadings not pos
sible under natural conditions. After
the coloring has proceeded to a satisfac-
tory degree, the coins are removed and
q few crumbs of slaked lime or mortar
ara added to fix the tint.

Ancient Iron Mine

The United States bureau of mines
says that the Cornwall Iron Mountain
ore banks, near Lebanon, Pa, have
been In operation since about Iz4O.
This is an open-pit operation, and it is
mined by steam shovels. There are
numerous pit mines in Lake Superior
districts. Two Of the large ore pits
are the Hull-Rust, at Hibbing, Minn.,.
which produces more ore in a year
than the Cornwall pit; also the Ma
honing pit, which produces more, and
adjoins the Hull-Rust pit. The Hull
Rust and Mahoning pits give hematits
ore, while the Cornwall pit gives mag
netite.

Gid Economic Theory

I labor theory of value, as ex-
pounded chiefly By Adam Smith, David
Ricardo and Karl Marx, is the econ
omic theory that the value of a com
modify depends, in the long run. on the
amount Of labor expended in its pro-
duction. 1T is natural" says Adam
Smith, that what is usually the
produce of two days labor or two
hours labor should be worth double
what is usually the produce of one
DAYS or one hours labor"

Best way to Apply Wax

The best method of applying the
wax to floors is to take cheeseclOth
and double 1t TO get added thickness,
then fold into a sort Of bag. Put a
handful Of wax inside and go over
the floor thoroughly 1t will be found
that the wax works through the
meshes of cheeSeclOth and gives an
even coating over the floor. This pre-
vents waste and excessive wax in
spots.
After the floor has been gone over
with the wax and allowed to dry about
20 minutes it is ready for polishing.
Rub to a polish with a weighted floor
brush, first across the grain Of the
wood, then with it.
