Dear Srr,—I do not-wist to return to Montreal without expressing my gratitude to you for the very excellent Bell Piano that you placed at my disposal for my recital. I have tried many Canadian Pianos of different manufac- turers nd must say that, con- sidering the siz2 of the mnstru- ment, | have never found one to equal it for depth and bril- liancy of toue, The action Is quite as elastic and respons- ive as in American Upright Pianos of the highest grade.
Again thanking you, very sincerely,
I remain, Yours, Frep. E. Morris

But nothing care Amy trumpeter For all the gloom and chill.
He blew from out his crimson horm A bias? ¥ ! i
It was a brave and merry peal Which through my fancy rang.
It brought a hint of budding Lowers, And birds of springtime sang.
I saw the sunshine on the grass, The glancing shadows fall,
While lovely hues and fragrances Went floating through it all.

SIGNIFICANCE LONG LOST. Some Superstitions Which Have to Do With the Passing of Life.
The superstitions which have clustered about the closing scenes of human life are almost innumerable. Some, perhaps the greater portion, now scem to be meaning- less, but a few had in early days a signifi- cance which they have since lost. The stopping of the clock at the moment a death oceurs in the house is still practiced in many families in this country and Ku- rope, and originated in the fact that ac- cording to the laws of several European states it was necessary to have evidence of the exact moment of births and deaths oc- curring in the royal family. When a king
| died, an attendant was always present
whose duty it was to stop the clock in the royal apartment at the moment when death occurred, and the timepiece was thus a mute record of the event. From royal families the descent of this practice to aristocratic and finally to families of low degree was easy, and many persons adopted it as a mere superstition without knowing anything of its former signifi- cance.
Turning the looking glass to the wall is a superstition which is said to have orig- inated in the country districts of Germany during the days when mirrors were novel- ties. Mirrors of glass with quicksilver backs are said to have been made at Ven- ice in 1300 A. D., and were first made in England in 1673, but did not come into common use among the middle classses until the beginning of the last century. At first they were regarded with supersti- tious awe, the idea being that the reflec- tion of the face in the mirror was a sqrt of specter Or second soul of fhe individual. When a death occurred, the looking glass
