From the earliest times the people of the Netherlands have so greatly loved their bells and chimes that the archi tecture of tln*ir belfries and steeples | the history of its making. HoPan 1 shows marked traces of it, says the Chicago News. Most of these are of openwork design, so that the bells might Ik* heard in tin* widest eireum- ferenee. Beautiful examples of this style ean lie seen in the cathedral tow ers of Ftrecht and Delft. Several of the smaller towns possess even finer specimens, either in their church spires or in the belfries or watch towers. Like the well known belfry of Monni- kendnm. these towers generally sto'»d In the principal squares. Their bells were tolled in case of danger to alarm the burghers or to call them together for Important communications. Such a tower is that of Bruges, of which Longfellow sings: In the market place of Bruges Stands the belfry, old and brown, Thrice destroyed and thrice rebuilded. Still it watches o’er the town. In Holland there is scarcely a place of importance that does not have one or more towers with chimes. The tunes of those are changed once or twice ti year, generally on New Year’s day. This is so at The Hague and Utrecht. Some places, howeyer, are not content with this and have the tunes changed oftener. It is on record that in one town which had a fine carillon cast by the famous Ilemony in 1.777 it was decreed that the tunes should be changed every fortnight, or at least once a month •. foul were the burghers of their bolls. Til a time when clocks were by no means general the church bells were the timekeepers for the burghers. The heavier bell struck tin* hours and the lighter boll tin* half hours. If these were chimes, they played a tune at noon and another at mMnlirht. while before the stroke of the hour or divi sion of the hour a part of the tune would be played. The consequence was that there was always plenty of music in the air, and every one in town would know what time it was. In Utrecht this custom is still continued, and as there are several “musical tow ers’* it is not a place for nervous peo ple to live. What an important guild that of boll founder must have been in the middle ages can lie seen by the many legends attaching to the more famous names, the imputation of sorcery which at tached to many and the secrets of the art which were Jealously guarded by each foundry. Many of these bell founders achieved fame far beyond the Tin* r. f( ,T *r .-'ti on lin u:rht a chan r o In <!* * 11.1 n ! ! • < f r f ; • bells.

Twenty Itutheiiiun peasants belong ing to Ispas, in Galicia, have been sen tenced to various terms of imprison ment from a week to a month for kiss ing each other in church.
