'Phono Rod 1091. How many of us. who listen to tho rhnrch bells ringing on the Sabbath morning, know the origin of the cus tom of bell ringing? Boll rinclnc is one of the most nncient customs practiced today. In fact there ls no other usage of mod ern times that can be traced so fur back into history as this. Two thousand years bcofre Christ bell-ringing on feast days nnd In re ligious observance was practiced. The feast of Osiris was announced to tho Kcyntlans by tinkling cym bals and hand hells; Aaron and other Jewish priests wore bells on their vestments on tho approach of certain fnnsts and nerlods: the priests ot Cybele nt Athens used hells in their mysterious Initiation ceremonies ns Two thousand yenrs before Christ the Greek garrisons were regulated by the ringing of bells, even before the introduction of the trumpet, which is almost as nncient us the bell, In human history. The Romans used bells to an nounce the hour for opening shops and stores, and also for closing; thev had a certain number of taps for the loathing hour, when every cit izen was supposed to repair to mo public baths; n certain number to denote religious services, a certain number for the feast and a certain number for a danger signal or call to arms. At one time the Roman city was almost entirely regulated by the rinclnc of bells, they having import ed the custom from the Greeks they in turn from the Egyptians and they from the Jewish people. The first bell used in a Christian church was introduced by Paullnus, blshon of Nola, In Campania, Italy, In 400 A. D. The Christians, up to this time had ignored the practice on account of its wide use bv me pagans, and tho earliest Christian churches spurned the custom, ns ono of tho blasphemies of ncatnenism. nut the church began to feel tho need of some means of calling the scattered votaries to a common place of worship, and so adopted the ancient custom oi bell ringing. As the mania for building groat churches spread, during the 12th to 15th centuries, the art of boll man lng kept pace with it. From the ex treme view of having no bell at all the church rushed to tho other ex treme and by the year 1400 had cast the largest bell ever seen on earth Podo Sablnlan In the year COO A D. ordained that every hour In the day should bo announced by ringing a bell, so tho people may ue reminu ed of the constant approach of death As the people of Europe came to use bells more commonly, they were applied to every use, and tho popu lace gave vent to their feelings on almost every occasion by ringing bells. On death tney were made to clang out the solemn dirge; on wee ding days they rang merrily and on tho approach or a king or prince, chimed the universal good feeling. So commonly had the praetlco of hell ringing become In tho 15th cen tury In Europe, thai tho church belle were christened, wreathed in flow, ers, had mottoes written upon them or cast in them as they were mould ed. They had grown to bo a part of worship, The ringing of the curfew boll 1b aB old as William tho Con nueror. who Introduced tho custom into England in 1200. From that day to this the curfew has rung every night. In parts of England , Scotland and Wales. As the dissenters separated from tho established church, they were denied the right 'to uso bells in an nouncing their hour of worship, un til full civil rights were restored to (hem. The most noted bell In oxlstcnco today Is the one said to have be longed to Saint Patrick. It ls only G Inches high. f inches broad and inches deep, but Is Inlaid with gold and gems and la mentioned In Irish leconds as early as C52 A, D. Tho largest bell ever cast In the world. Is the great bell of Moscow, which weighs 193 tons and was cast In 1734. In 1737 a fire weakened Its belfry and it fell to the ground, half burying Itself In the earth. It was raised and a chapel was built under It, the bell forming the roof and dome. Boll ringing was Introduced Into America with the earliest Knglluh settlers. Religion being the great theme In those early days, all tho attendant ceremonies took a promi nent place In the life of the commu nity. The Puritans at first aban doned the Idea of bell ringing out of hatred for tho oppressors of the church, who practised It, but as tho revolutionary period came on, the foellngs of tho people could be ex pressed In no more thrilling manner than by Joyous or defiant bell ring ing and so It remained for the Lib erty Bell to proclaim liberty through out tho world. In Moslem countries bell ringing ls not practised, because of It be ing a Christian custom, Tho hour of prayer is announced by the Imaum, or officer of the moBque, who cries It out from the chapel porch. Tho absence of bolls ls the most noticeable feature of the mag nificent mosques of all Mahomme dan countries. AJ1 religious servr ices there aro called out by those criers and tho people listen for this call ob they do for church bells In Christian countries. In Christian lands bell ringing has Its superstitious side. In the Island of Malta, the Inhabitants ring bolls to dispel storms and also ring them whllo death Is hovering over n house hold, believing that tho bell will drive away evil spirits. Tho custom of bell ringing lias n wider application In the united States than In any other country on earth; no church hero Is complete without Its bell; the hours of school are marked by the boll; fire nlnrmB, public meetings, the meal hours on farms, tho movement of railroad nlns and steamboat and other things of less Importance too num erous to mention are regulated by bells. Bell ninklng Is one of tho greatest of modern arts, nnd yet no modern bell maker has ac jmpl!Rh- d the feats of tho old masters In making chimes of such wonderful sweetness ns thoso of the old Bells of Bruges. Tho most wonderful set of musi cal bells In tho world ls on St. Giles church In Edinburgh. It was form erly the custom of tho city of Edin burgh to have music played ror one hour each day on these bells, tho plnyer to be paid out of the city treasury. Bell ringing Is a trade followed by old and decrepit men In all Europenn cities nnd they vie 'vlih mch other n making their groat bells peal louder thnn any of their noghbom A PREACHER'S OPINION. Trlb Is the Remedy for Liquor and Tobacco Habits That Has Effected the Greatest Number of Cures. The Rev. J. R. N. Bell, pastor of tho Presbyterian church, Baker City, writes: "A permnnent euro nt n nor mal cost is what tho public has wanted for many years. I have watched with lntercBt tho good suits obtained by your remedy for liquor and tobacco habit, TRIB, nnd feel I can safely and heartily rocom mend It to nil In need." Tallman & Co., local ngents.
