Swiss Cow Bells Musical;
PLAY Notes of the Scale

Switzerland is noted for rugged
scenery, Swiss cheese, cattle, and beau
tiful COW bells. From mountain top
to mountain top, reverberating from
peak to peak, echoing through green
valleys, cow bells and yodels mingle
In harmonious melody. says writer in
Hoard's Dairyman.
Swiss COW bells are a work of art as
well as necessity. They serve the
practical purpose of keeping track Of
roaming herds in fenceless pastures.
They are also a romantic tradition.
Cow bells become wedding bells when
given to the bride for a wedding
present.
Made In many sizes, from metal
Of secret formula that is handed down
from one generation to another, Swiss
COW bells are tuneful musical instru-
ments playing different notes Of the
scale with melodious effects and in
perfect pitch. Mixing music and work
is inherent among Swiss farm folks.
Artistic designs, dates, names, and
pretty sentiments are hammered on
the Swiss bells by special craftsmen.
Bells vary in value according to size
and design from SIS to more than 500
per bell.

Tulip Tree Wood Is Soft,
White-Yellowish in Color

The tulip tree (Liriodendron Tulip,
fera, Linnaeus) also called yellow pop
ular, and wildwood, is one of the
most distinctive of American trees.
The leaves are simple, alternate, usu-
ally four-lobed, four to six inches
across, appear to have tips cut Off at
right angle to the stem, and are long
stalked. At the base of each leaf
stalk are two leaf-appendages. The
flowers are tuliplike, one and one-half
to two inches deep, greenish yellow
with three refiexed sepals and six
petals. The fruit is made up Of long
winged nutlets arranged in light brown,
c0nelike clusters two and one-half to
three inches long. The bark when
young is smooth, bitter, ash-gray to
brown, notified with light blotches. On
old trunks 1t becomes thick brown,
deeply furrowed. The twigs are
smooth, shiny, stout. reddish-brown,
marked with pale cure-breathing
pores. Complete rings Of stipule-scars
surround the twigs. The buds are
smooth, fiattened, one-fourth to one
half an inch long blunt-pointed, red
dish-brown, covered with one pair of
bud-scales. Within the buds are small
miniature leaves The wood is soft,
not strong, light, white-yellowish to
brownish and works easily. 1t is used
for furniture, interior finishings, wood
enware, novelties and veneer. The tu-
lip tree Is found from Rhode Island
to Michigan, south to Florida and Ar
kansas.-Indianapolis News.

Early Engineering Feat

On March Is, 1884, the Allegheny
Portage railroad, one of the most re-
markable of early American projects,
was opened for traffic. 1t consisted Of
a series of ten inclined planes, connect
ed by levels, by means of which canal
boats, mounted in sections on cars.
were carried bodily SO miles over the
mountains between Hollidaysburg and
Johnstown, Pa. The former was 1898
feet below the summit; the latter,
1,771 feet. The road formed a link in
a state-built canal system 1914 miles
long which, supplemented by another
railroad between Columbia and Phil
adelphia, connected the latter city with
Pittsburgh. This was the first arti-
fetal means of direct communication
between the East and the Mississippi
basin.

our Constitution as prohibiting court

Definition of "Life"

No single definition of the term
"llfe" has been generally accepted by
Biologists or philosophers. According
to De Blainville, life is the two fold
internal movement Of composition and
decomposition, at once general and
continuous" Lewes defines It as "a
series of definite and successive
changes, both of structure and compo-
sition, which takes place within an in
dividual without destroying its iden-
tity."
