This Is from a fragment of pliano fin. gering left by Chopin: "No one notices Inequality in the power of the notes of a scale when it is played very fast and equally its regards tiile. In a good inechanisin the alin Is not to play ev erything with an equal soutnd, but to acquire a beautiful quality of touch and a perfect shading. "For a long tine players have acted against nature in seeking to give equal power to each finger. On the contrary, each finger should have an appropriate part assigned it. The thumb hIs the greatest power, being the thickest lin ger and the freest. Then coiiirs the lit tle finger, at the other extrelnity of th hand. The- uiddle finger is the main support of the hand and is arssted by the first. Finally conies tih. third, the weakest one. "As to this Siamese twill of the middle finger some players try to force it with all their mnight to become independont, a thing impossible and miost likely tin necessary. There are, then. inany dit ferent q:uallties of sound, Jist as there are severil flingers. h'll(e pint is to utilize the differences, and th is.

A parlytof New York politicians who recentlly returned from a trip to Htalifax tell a story about Con Fressman .William Sulzer, the 'Henry Clay" of Tanmmany Hall. While roaming in the Queefi's gar den in the Canadian city an Old florist pointed with pride to a hand some Led of flowers. They were arranged in the shal)C of an Eng lish crowii and at the side was laid out the uniiioni jack. '"You see that handsome bed ?" said the gardener. "Well, the seeds for that bed were sent to me by one of the ablest statesmen in the Uit ed States. Congressman Sulzer of I New York sent me the seeds." The Tammany men could hardly restrain their laughter.
