It la a, Travda of Welch UtUa Oasarallx Knowrn. KaelreanaaU erf Va Tfasiaeas. PeemlWt tM rneeaattesx M ts Wnisaviy . fa Qaiek Ja4raa tU tat Om4 Tls A Boston reporter was sent re cently to inquire Into the mysteries practiced by the music printer: "What Is the special dlfflculty , la setting a page of music t la It any thlng a rejrular compoeer could not do, at least after a little practice r was asked. "To be eyen a fair mu sical printer," Waa the answer, "you must be a rnfua. In the first place You need not know music, to be sure perhapa tt 1a letter. that fai should not,' for tSea you may: think you know more than the composer, and 'try to Improve his score for Blafj but the business 'requires Instant and accurate Judgment, perfect la milWrity with every box In the case, besides a great deal of skill and quickness In setting your type." la the case which holds tbe necessary "sorts' there are no less than four hundred varieties of type, by far the greater part of which must be used In setting a large piece of music . When the reporter was shown theae various character, aad how Intricately they must all? be made to combine so as to print with out a break or a crack anywhere to be seen, he did not wonder to hear the proprietor continue: "You can not conceive how much labor Is In Tolred in setting a single sheet Why, It would require an expert and half a dozen newspaper columns to describe it In all Its minute de tails. Yet, after all. to do this 1st not the greatest achievement of at music printer, j To be able to judge, swiftly and surely when he Is given a page of copy and told to accommo date it to an entirely different space is a much rarer and more essential faculty. The Spacing must be ac curate and approximately equal all the way through. On the first piece of spacing the spacing all 'the way through necessarily depends. For this the printer makes no elaborate calculations or. measurements; he comes to a reckoning by guesswork I result is as exact as If it had beca Then, too, he has to overcome the bother of the words underneath which must tot ' be too lrregu-r larly strung out, and every syllable of which must be placed under It own note or notes. No wonder that there are not more than twenty men at most in lioston who are experts In this beautiful and delicate craft although Boston, as the reader may like to know, does more musio print ing than any other city in the United States, probably more than any two other. ."How long does It take to master the trader' asked the re porter. "About three years, on an average, I should say; although that boy there," pointing to a sturdy young Italian not more than nine teen years old, "Is as good a printer as there Is with only about eighteen months' experience. Not more than five or six men are required in a good-sized shop. A fairly good printer will set three pages of sim ple music in a day. . Given a difficult instrumental score, however, and he will not get through with more than one and one-half pages. He Is paid by the sheet. When business Is not dull the printer, If a good one, makes from twenty to twenty-five dollars a week. "Bo you ever employ wom en?" was the last question the re porter asked. "Not many they are not a success usually, though one woman who worked fo me twelve years, and Is now running a place of her own in Chicago, was as good a printer as I ever had. IN THE GANGES. The Ceremonial Bathing; of the Brah man Devotees. The ceremonial bathing In, the Ganges forms the great morning ac of worship, and the bathing ghats belong to different races, so that each pilgrim band possesses an ac credited status In the holy city. Long flights of crumbling steps de scend from the towering shrines to tbe waters edge. . The river Is already full ot bathers, throwing the sacred water over each other from brazen lotahs, with the symbolical rites of their Intricate creed. Some stand - absorbed in prayer, with thin, brown arms raised toward heaven, and careworn faces bathed In tears. Groups of. high caste girls In filmy white veils step daintily Into the river, their slaves waitingon the bank. Gray-bearded men and bright-faced boys descend the steps of a neighboring XDt chanting a wild mantra, and crowds of sick or infirm worshipers are carried or assisted down the steep stairways, and supported by friendly hands as they dip themselves la the healing flood. A ghat where Brahma is supposed to have sacrificed ten horses sancti fies the most unclean, and at ta eclipse always a sacred phenomenon. In India the vanjuaru of pilgrims generally get pushed isrto the water nolens volens by the dense throng behind them. The, stately observa tory above this ghatiras built bt a rajah of Benaxee, who reformed th calendar., and .the lnstrumeaU o, brass and iron with which he work out astrological problems 'are contained withlA the walls.--All The Year Round.

All through history iodic of fashion have tried to Im prove upon nature by artificially coloring that which St. Paul tells us Is their glory. ! j . In the heyday of Venice, the faeile beauties of the city c4 the. lagoons dyed their hair a red to which Titian was cot ashamed to affix his name. The belle of belles In that dar had red hair, not bright red, but a dull red, with gllnte ot erimaoo. More recently, almost In oar own. tirna. a rage arose for brig at bloadaxhaixv as to which there was a tradition thai it had been popular with tbe Greek hetairae. ! . . Blonde beads, blocked 'the. thor oughfare, and young ladles of good repute did not disdain to employ the dver until his services were monop olized by another class. - la our day the popular color Is a bright shade of auburn the blonde! oeodre of M boulevards and sUly i girls go through martyrdom j to ltrjpart that tint to their locks. For; the popu larity of blonde hair the argonaut finds this excuse, that It Is rarer than black or brown ihalr, 'and finer. Everybody knows that the legend of golden fleece was scggestedTby the ardor with which Jason and other Greek connoisseurs pursued the blonde-haired maidens of Colchis. Almost all hair dye consist of sul phur and acetate of lead, both of which are. Injurious to so delicate a plant as human hair. . A ; Steady course of either will Impair the vi tality of the hair papilla and may de stroy the medulla altogether.. Wom en who bleach their 'hair use perox ide of. hydrogen, which, after a time, Imparts an unnatural and wigUke luster to the hair. A more danger ous dye still has for fets basis nitrate of silver. i . j When this Is used I the hair Is first washed with sulphuretof potassium; the nitrate Is applied while It la still wet. In all these cases the drug Is adulterated with a pigment of the desired color and tie effect for the time Is to substitute that color for the natural hue of the cortical sub stance or hair bark, j It need hardly be said that the effect of a continued use of such medlcazneats Is to en feeble and ultimately rot the root sheestha.- Baidaeas then eoeuaw, aad for that science has discovered no remedy. .1 Blue Ribbena as Bear Chocks. It is useless to deny that a great many bogus Murphy ribbons are be ing worn, consequently when a fel low Is seen with a knot of blue f abrio In his buttonhole It doesn't necessa rily follow that be has been to the Murphy meetings or signed the pledge. I It is probably true that the bogus ribbon received Its Impetus from the plan inaugurated by a half dozen Water street saloon keepers of mak ing the price of a Murphy ribbon a glass of beer. . The traitor Murphy ites crank the malt liquid and the bartender received the azure ribbon as a trophy. . j The plan worked well enough for a day or two, and no doubt a number ef genuine converts wre captured. Now It has been worked to death by the "rounder," who are quick to adopt any scheme that ; promises a drink without paying for It. Any way the plan has Veen abandoned, and the price of beer Is a nickel a schooner again. 1 i ' "Irish" Burns, who Is an admir able Crichton In his way an Inde fatigable student of Shakespeare, as well as adept "burglar Is credited with being the Inventor of the bogus ribbon "racket,M'aad the fantastic jag which Burns ' had one day when he succeeded In evading four police men by dodging areund the piles of lumber In a lumber; yard is said to have been purchased solely with blue ribbons.

Btory of Toro.oa.to Tao Tn-a rXaOosrus) of T-ore.- A loe :1a Cissj Wrttesrw mtart. re Waww A rear, est At - A volume under the title of Tbe Dialogue of Love has been pub lished by Roux In Turin. The manu script was discovered at the sale of one of tbe largest private libraries of old Bologna, and waa written, un doubtedly, In 1372 or 1573. It coo tains s? description of Tasso's love for Lucretia, the duchess of Urblno, and clear fully the mystery which before concealed the motive ot hi suddea departure or flight from the court of Ferrara, as well as his equally sudden return. Tbe dialogue Is carried on by two friends. Valerio and Camilla. VsJ erio loves a lady of the court. Lu cre Ua, but cannot reach hi goal. He therefore asks CamUlo to say what he did to obtain the favor of Donna Isabella. CamUlo then gives al experience. He say that at first neither request nor prayers nor threats helped Lis suit, then he reeorted to trickery. He climbed through her bedroom window one night, threw himself at her feet, aed threatened to kill himself Instantly If she did not grant him her favor. She yielded, at first from fear, later from love. The day paaaed la un claimed happiness until Isabella's mother discovered that the young woman was unfaithful to her hus band. The mother tried to port the lovers, but when she saw that tbe parting would break the daughter's heart she relented .and even encour aged their mutual attachment. But Isabella's mother was not the only one who k new of the affair. .Isabella's confessor learned aJ, andbe soughtto punish the crime which the mother had ovrrioolred. . He reused to give isaoeua absolution until her lover should leave the court. And Ca mUlo left. With lore's longing and love's sickness in his heart he. re mained for mootvt and year far from the court. Isabella's picture was ever before him; Isabella's face haunted hU dreams; and auddcnlr he appeared again at court. Iabci la received him with all her former love. "For what Is the happinos of Heaven?" asks CamUlo, "compared with the happiness of love?" With this plot Isjnlngied good ad vice of all sorts for lover and tlime who wish to be lovers advice which will be accepted as thankfully trday by the public as It waa by Valerio, who. In observing It, eventually reached his goaL. . That Torquato Tasso himself was Camillo and the duchess of Crbioo was Isabella is virtually beyond all doubt. The fact Is evident In tbe many , minute details which mark the plot of this fiery work. Berliner IJoersen-Courier. A Literary Philosopher. "Do not, I would urge you," says ir. zximund Gosse to young novel 1st, "work for great sales, or even expect them. njoy them and se cure them If tbey come, but do not make that your aim. There Is vulgarity that hangs about the au thor who seeks the crowd." Let the crowd seek you; let them. clamor at the postern of your Ivory tower; do not wave a red silk handkerchief to them from the battlements. Not word would. I say against those un- seuisa veteran of our profession who have sacrificed their own quiet. aad perhaps hazarded their gains. by insisting on the value of literary property. But let us be very care ful that, when Utenxr property marches la at the door, certain vola tile qualities, such as distinction, truth of analysis, artistio sincerity do not fly out of the window It would be better to share fame with a crust than to boast of seventy three editions aad be shut out of the kingdom of literature." Benjamin Franklin's Wtta. la the Pennsylvania Magazine a very unflattering description of Ben jamln Franklin's wife Is given. It Is taken from the diary of 'Daniel Fisher, who was Franklin's secre tary for a short time. "She sat on the floor at a neighbor". She 'as sumed tbe airs of extraordinary freedom and - great humility, la mented heavily the misfortunes of those who are unhappily Infected with a too tender or benevolent dis position, said she believed all the world claimed a privilege of troub ling ber Pappy (so she usually calls Mr..Fraaklln) with their calami ties aad distress, givieg us a general history of many such wretches and their impertinent applications.' He mentions 'the turbulence and jeal ousy, and pride of ber disposition' and !the violence of 'her Invectives.

Or he repre senta.a new-born lamb, which the shepherdess carries La her apron, the legs of the newly born being still too weak to walk to the sheenfold. The ewe follow the lamb, never tak ing her eyes from It, and has the anxious air of a mother trembling with love and tenderness for the safety of her little -one. Thus he show ci the sentiment of love as It exists In nature, even among the animals. He admired order and care la the mother of a family. He has never painted a peasant with clothes torn. He sometimes painted one with patched clothes; but surely this spoke of order in the home. He had a horror of people who went with clothes torn and una wed. showing tbe want of neatness and care. His peasint Is always boo est and respectable In his rustic but orderly, ways, and never has a wicked or trivial air."

It had either been stolen or received by a tramp whom vengeance speedily overtook. as bis mangled remains were found on the track the same night. My watch was In his pocket, and after a week or two of delay I regained It. But In the meantime I had discovered that this watch kept quite as good if not better time than the repeater. and I-delayed making the change for a few days.- Then I bad to go on a trip that I considered somewhat dangerous, aad so put my repeater " In the safe and wore the substitute. I. have forgotten exactly bow long ago that was, but the repeater has remained Id the same place ever since, except when I take It out to show to a friend, and It seems to me as though this homely little watch would do service for me to the end of the chapter.
