Bach Had the Melody In Him and Juet!
The Duke of Saxe-'Weimnr once in
vited John Sebastian liaeb, the Nestor
of German music, to attend a dinner
at the palace. Before the guests sat
down to the feast. Bach was asked to
give an improvisation. The composer
seated himself at the harpsichord and
straightway forgot nil about dinner
and everything else, lie played so long
that at Inst the duke touched his shoul
der and said. "We are very much
obliged, master, but we must not let
the soup get cold."
Bach sprang to his feet and followed
the duke to the dining room without
uttering a word. But he was scarcely
seated when he sprang u.i. rushed back
to the instrument like one demented,
struck a few chords and returned to i
the dlulng room, evidently feeling
much better. "I beg your pardon, your
highness." he said, "but yon interrupt
ed me In a series of chords nnd arpeg
gios on the dominant seventh, and I
could not feel at ease uniil they were
resolved into the tonic. It Is as If you
had snatched n glass of water from
the lips of a man dying of thirst. Now

Surmounting a Crisis.
Kdward Kverett Hale used to tell
with a rueful smile a story of Ids boy

sionally mislaid some of his belong

strange way of disappearing one at a
time. At last his mother, by way of
, assisting Ids memory, sent him out one
j day with a red cotton glove on one
I hand and a white glove on the other.
hven at this painful crisis, however,
his wits helped him.
"I held one band In front of me and
one behind my back," said Dr. Hale,

How th Butterfly Is Protected.
The brilliant coloring on the wlugs
of some kinds of bdlterllles Is a bitter
tasting pigment, which to a certain ex

eaten by their foes. I'roint will try to

The brilliant colors may tie produced
in order to advertise the nauseous
