nrrf ERE THE WORLD LAGS In Art*, Literature and Science It la Progressive—Why Not In Humanity f In the acceptation and appreciation of the latest development! in the arts, literature, philosophy and the seb anew, the modern world is truly cosmopolitan. It recognizes no boundary line of race or nationality where Cenitis In these fields reveals itself. So closely are the various countries now bound together through International communication and commqrclalism and the universal diffusion of intelligence, that competition in the search for knowledge has been tremendously stimulated, says a writer (n the Metropolitan Magazine In the realm of the intellect and the senses emulation is encouraged and each new discovery or achievement that promises greater progress for mankind Is hailed with impartial enthusiasm. The world is ready to pay homage equally to Marconi, Lister, Rodin, Reinhardt, Tolstoi, Ix>eb, Peary or Amundsen. None will be denied the acknowledgment due him because he was born in one country and not In another. It is the patience, daring, endurance, persistence, wLdom and passion for truth and knowledge as manifested In his works that are accepted as the measure of his worth, ft Is only when economic and political supremacy is in question that the nations and races maintain hideous «nd barbaric relations toward one another. Then envy, suspicion and thoughts of mutual destruction are accepted as natural, logical and inevitable. Then the world divides itself fhto armed camps and group alliances »re made as safeguards of one nation against Ihe other. In everything but the one vital, human essential of ths welfare of the people, who sustain out of their poverty- the armaments in times of peace and give of their lives when war is rampant, the world's rulers are content to see amity and brotherhood prevail. QUESTION FOR MUSIC LOVERS Just What Do You Hear When You Attend a Concert or Listen to an Orchestra? The above question waa put to me many years ago, under circumstances that made it worth more to me than * full year of instruction under any master of the old world or new. 1 was coming away from one of my first symphony concerts, when I met my violin teacher, and to’d him I had just heard the great, orchestra. “Is that so?" he remarked. "Well, what did you hear?" "Oh, the Unfinished Symphony and "But you are only telling me what was on the program. What I asked watt of more importance. I wanted to know what you heard.". I started to say that there were nearly a hundred musicians, that, they played all kinds of Instruments, but he Interrupted again. "Yes, I know, hut what did you hear? Was it a great noise or did it say something to you?" Now I began to understand, and of course I had no words to express my feelings. But I thought about it very often for some time, and wondered what music really was; what other people beard; whether any one ever heard what I did; if they ever found themselves powerfully moved at. s great climax in the music; if they preferred to go to concerts alone and sit 'n a dark corner and listen without booking tn the direction of the stage And as I gained more experience as a listener there were thousands of ques tions that arose from that one simple question. What did I hear? Whal did you hear when you listened tfl good music?—-Exchange-Roads Were Not Public. A century ago ail the larger towni In eastern Massachusetts were to l>« reached substantially only over toll yoads, or turnpikes, along which ons paid to pass. The roads were built and owned by oorporations chartered by the commonwealth, and the fares, ot tolls, were taken up every few miles at toll gates, which were usually e» tablished on the bridges, so that no one could get by without paying. There were turnpikes to Concord, is Worcester, to Dedham and Ptowi. denee, to Neponset and Quincy, to Lynn and Salem, and to Newburyport. At the first toll gate out ol Salem toward Boston, $5,300 was taken in the year 1805, but the day of greatest travel on the road was June 1, 1813, when 120 stages and hundreds of carriages went over the road that their occupants might get a glimpse from hilltops of tbs fight between the Chesapeake and the Shannon, In which the dying Lawrence uttered h's (mortal words, "Don’t give up tbs •hip." Russia’s Hunting Bag. The hunting season in Russia hat come to an end, and the following particulars, says n St. Petersburg correspondent, relate to the booty, which has far surpassed that of tbi preceding year.
