NEW IN ^ORLD OF HARMONY
Recently Invented Device Seems to
Offer Undreamed-of Possibilities
to Composers of Music.
Added possibilities for orchestral
composition are revea\fd In a device
perfected by Bernard Samuels. Euro
pean musician. Competent judges in
the world of h^irmony believe that his
“areophor” will greatly advance scor
ing for wind instruments by tinting
future compositions with new and
strangely beautiful harmonies, and
will also prove a ble.sshig to the mu
sicians themselves by saving their
health and nervous energy.
This instrument is said to'provide
a means of holding a tone Indelinitely,
while the performer is resting his
lungs. This is accomplished by foot
pressure on a dust-proof bellows. A
small bellows operated by one foot sup
plies the air. Connected with this is
a rubber tubing which terminates in a
small metal reed fastened near the
mouthpiece of the Jnstruiiient. Both
the reed and the regular mouthpiece
«re held in the month of the musician.
By a sort of stopcotjk both are con
trolled.—Washington Star.

In order to properly understand
these two characters, it will be neces
sary to look at the several narratives
In which they are brought to oiir view.
These are three in number.
I. The Behavior of Martha and Mary
in the Days of Sunshine. (Luke 10:38-
42.)
In this picture we see Martha en-
guged in preparing a meal for Jesus.
In her effort to make the best prepara
tion for her honored guest, she became
distracted. She not only was cum
bered with much serving but she found
fault with Mary for not helping her.
She even censured the \I.iOrd for per
mitting such neglect. Martha has had
her followers in all ages. Every church
knows them. The busy, troubled and
fussy women who are engaged in serv
ice for the Lord with little patience
for those who sit at the feet of Jesus.
Mary sat at Jesus* feet and heard His
word. She had taken her turn In the
service as the word "also” would Im
ply. She did not neglect service, but
had the keenness of perception to dis
cern that communion with the Lord
was more prlued by Him than the serv
ing of a meal. Both of these women
loved the Lord and it is impossible to
say which loved Him more. In the
days of sunshine In this home, Mary
made the good choice of communion
with her Lord.
II. Mary and Martha in the Day of
Great Sorrow. (John 11:1-46.)
The next scene which occupies oiir
attention is the occasion of the resur
rection of Lazarus. In the time of the
sickness of Lazarus, these sisters had
sent for Jesus. Jesus loved the mem
bers of this household, and yet, strange
to say, He delayed His going unto
them. Martha met Him with rebuke,
saying that if He had been there her
brother had not died. This carried
with It 'the censure for His delay un
der such trying clrcuijistances. This
act. of Martha called forth some mar
velous teachings on the resurrection.
After this interview with Martha, she
came to Mary with the- message of a
call from Jesus. Mary was composed
and remained in the house until called
for. She immediately responded to
this call and used the Identical words
of Martha, but instead of rebuking'
her. He mingled His tears of sympathy
with hers of sorrow. The reason she
had such composure in this dark hour
was that she had patiently sat at Hia
feet and listened to His wore! so that
she understood the meaning of the
tragedy. The difference then In the
behavior of these two women In this
dark hour was doubtless due to the
fact that in the days of sunshine Mary
had entered fully into fellowship with
the Lord and that Martha had lost this
grace through her fretfulness.
III. Jesus Entertained at Bethany.
(.Tohn 1:1-0.)
At this supper appeared Mary,
Martha and Lazarus, who was raised
from the dead. Doubtless this supper
was in grateful app.”eciatIon of His
help and sympathy in the days of their
trial. At this meal Mai tha was back
at her old business of serving, but It
would seem with an unruffled disposi
tion. Mary took a pound of spikenard,
very costly, and annointed the feet of
Jesus and wiped them with her hair.
This was a token of her great love and
devotion. She was back in her ac
customed place at the feet of Jesus.
With the keen intuition of true love,
she brought her costliest gift as an evi
dence of her love. She thus antl(d-
pated His death and burial, knowing
that she could not minister unto Him
then. The Lord received this act ol
love at its full value. Against the
foul criticism of Judas, Jesus defended
Mary. He declared that it was nc
more a w.i.ste than the ointment
placed on the bodies of tbe dead
In embalmment, fo fact it was the
doing of this very act beforehand unto
Him. Only Mary of all His disciples
had really understijod Jesus \vhen He
said He must be crucified and raised
again the third day. The announce
ment of His crucifixion brought unto
the others dismay. They refused to
believe in the resurrection, but Mary
came to annoint H!s1)Ody for burying.

Announcement is made by the New
York state department of health that
encouraging results are being obtained
In preventing deaths from measles by
using a serum obtained from the blood
of adults who have had the disease.
Laymen should note that the report
sa;^ “encouraging,” not that a cure
has been found.
If a serum has been discovered
which will ameliorate the severity of
measles, much less cure the disease,
another boon has been conferred on
mankind by science, the Philadelphia
Evening Rulletin announces. Even to*
this day measles is regarded by too
many parents as an ailment insepar
able from childhood and the sooner a
youngster contracts the illness and
gets it over and done with the better.
This is altogether a wrong idea.
Measles is not only dangerous in itself
but is often complicated by serious
ailments of the eyes, ears, kidneys and
bronchial regions.
A disease of childhood, measles, al
so attacks adults and in the late years
may be more perilous than to a young
person. When frequently|epidemic, a
certain immunity follows, uut when the
disease Is taken among a people who
have never before been visited by it
the mortality Is high. Years ago a
British Ship from Australia carried
measles to the Fiji islands and 40,000
of the 150,000 Fijians were swept off.
POISON IN ORDINARY FOODS
Fact That Most People Take a Small
Amount With Their Regulation
Breakfast Dishes.
Did you have your morning dose
of poison today?
“Poison?” you ask. “What do you
mean?”
Well, the truth is, that if you had
bacon for breakfast, salt on your
cereal, bloaters or kippers, rolls cov
ered with icing, pepper on any of
your food, or even a cup of coffee or
tea, you had your morning dose of
poison.
Poison, of course, does not harm ua
if taken in sufficiently small amounts.
Bacon contains a little saltpeter, an
ounce being considered sufficient to
kill.
The Chinese commit suicide by eat
ing a cupful of salt; bloaters and
kippers contain formaldehyde; most
cake or roll Icings have prussic acid
in them; cloves, nutmegs, horsel’adlsh,
and a number of other herbs are poi
sonous if taken in large enough quan
tities. black pepper contains piperine
—an alkaloid poison; and dnctoi’s

content.—Popular Sidence Monthly.

Canadian Wheat Holds Its Own.
During the last season wheat from
Argentina has been a serious com
petitor of Canadian wheat and lias
.supplied a large part of the require
ments of Great Britain. However,
Canadian wheat has sold readily when
ever tonnage could be secured at rates
sufficiently favorable to enable Cana
dian wheat to reach the British market
even at a slight advance over the
Argentine product. Shipments of
Canadian wheat to the Orient are ap
proximately one-third of the amounts
shipped during the season of 1921-
1922, when Japanese crops were very
