An attendant Ktcppod up to him and

"Certninly it in," rejoined tho at

"I'd llko tn know why not,"

"Yes, sir. I do."

Organ lnusio readied its climax with
Bacli. It limy nrluipii be said that all
niusio did. 'At nuy rate, onn thing is
certain viz, if there has been uny prog
ress in music since thu day of Hach, it
has beeu duo to him. I'tich's music is
polyphouio, and polyphony is true
inusiu. To its foundation npou this
school is duo tho fact that there has
been no decadeneo iu lnusio in Oer
iniitiy. Thero has been no advuiice iu
polyphony since tho days of Hindi. Such
advance us lias been made has been iu
orlgimtlity and boldness of modulation.
For pure organ niusio finch still is
nnd probably will always remain the
grcutest of all composers. Kveu with
all tho modern mechanical appliances
that huvo been attached to tho organ,
his works are Htill very dilTloult per
haps tho most difficult of organ coinpo
f itloiis. 1 1 u must h'tve been us great an
organist as ho was n composer. That he
should have been nblo to play npou the
organ of Ins day works so exacting in
technique as hi. owu is simply marvel
ous. It is onn of thu phenomena of musical
history tlmt, while orchestral, operatic
nnd other branches of lnusio were iu
their infancy in liach's day and have
developed sinco then, Iiaeh brought or
gan nuisioto its climax. Ho was not tho
small sonroo whonee flowed a rivulet
which in tiuio was to expand into a
broad stream ; he was tho broad stream '
itself. The word "Bach" in German
means a brook, whioh led a famous Gor
man composer to say puuningly that
this great master wag not a Bach, but

The mau who when be goo to a lofty
modern building to see aomcbodyou the
tenth Door linos au express elevator
whoso Drst stop is nt the seventh floor,
reudy to start, and so reaches the teutb
floor almost before be kuows it, is sure
to be impressed by the experience eveu
though it inny not be new to him.
Another thing that is sure to impress
a visitor is the lot ul travel that has
sprung' up iu the tall buildings. While
iu un elevator he will see some oun get
ou at one floor aud get off at uuother.
It may be that some concern has unices
ou uue II i Kir and rooms for drafting or
for other work ou another, or there
may be business relations between sep
arate concerns on different floors aud
going tu uud fro between them just as
there would be along the street betweeu
them if they were ou the street level.
Aud theu there are buildings iu which,
ou floor abovo floor, business of the
same uuturo is carried ou, uud iu which
customers go from floor to floor without
coming down to tbe street ngain uutil
they have visited all the concerns with
which they may have occasion to do
business.
to thut, tuko it altogether, to oue not
overfumilinr with it there is still likely
to be found much of interest iu tbe use
of the moderu elevator. New York

Chlneati Playing Card a.
John Chinaman is almost, if not
quite, as versatile as the Iliudoos iu the
vuricty cf bis cards aud games. The
CLiucbH pucks vary iu uumbcr cousider
nbly. They consist of frotu 30 to U'O
cards, thu latter beiug called a "series."
They also vary iu size, color aud qual
ity. As iu euchre, tho Chiueso spgrt a
"joker" (sometimes three or four), a
plain card which cau tuke the place of
auy other curd. Some packs have round
ed corners, with distinctive suit symbols
marked ou euch card, while others are
rectangular.
The number of games pluyed by tho
Chinese, ia apparently without eud.
Tbe khaipai packs are popular. Klmu
boo is n very well know n game iu the
celestial empire, so much so, indeed,
that nu English geutlemuu connected
with tho cousulur service in China or

Writing of "Iusomnia" iu The Worn
nu's Homo Companion, Ella Morris
Kretscbuiar calls attention to a preva
lent cuuso of sleeplessness.
"Uuloss our sleep be very profound,
wo still curry on a sort of self cou
soiousuess. We lio dowu, mid wo mus
oulnrly hold ourselves iu nuy position
unsumod. We do not ubandou our head
to tho pillow, our limbs to the bed. We
bold thum there. We must uuhinge, as
it were, so thut boud or any member
would drop limp if tho rest of the body
were lifted. Imagine thuui heavy uud
dropping down, down, nnd you will
soon acquire the trick, tindiug, as a re
ward, that iu the grateful release from
muscular tension thu miud relaxes as
well."
