There is no absolute certainty as to the exact time when chimes were first used. It probable that they were used before the Christian era.

A chime, as it is understood in this country, consists of a set of live or more bells attuned to each other, the tones of which, beginning with the largest (usually called the tenor). follow each ether in diatonic suceession. The usual niunlier consists of eight bells on the notes of the natural scale. This number may be increased.

which will eermit an indefinite number of tunes being upon them. ith eight bells only a certain number of tunes can be played. A great many people mistake a peal for a chime. A peal consists of three or more bells attuned in harmonic succession. They can be variously rung.

but upon them no tune can be played. In England peal or change ringing is practiced more than in any other country. The greatest number of chaniges that can be rung upon four bells is 24; upon 10, s.c.2R,t400. The time consumed in ringing tiO40 changes on seven bells is three hours. It takes 27 years to ring a complete change on 12 bells, as the changes go far up in the nations.

"'tell. where are you off to now!" is the salute I receive as I step out of an up-town hotel armed with a palm leaf fan, note book and pencil. "Off to find the garden where green thoughts I answered. and looking up beheld a veteran quill driverone of the landmarks of Boston journalismstanding with his hat off, mooning hissteaming head and trying very hard not to appear, conscious of the aggravating little drops of perspiration running down the back of his neck.

tickling his earl and dropping off the end of his nose. "Looking for green thoughts, eh! You had better get out of Boston then, for you won't tind anything green lying around here today," and the man with his melting genius disappears through the doorway, muttering something like going usi stairs and packing himself in ice. I steo into the street and take a car and soon find that I have a strong conviction that the duty of the hone is to keep cool. It is so hot that it is impossible to keep one's thoughts from dissolving into thin air. so to speak.

and as I am not looking for a thought so green and strong that one may go by the meat of a 40 days' fast some barren time, as that clever spinster. Rose Elizabeth Cleveland. would say, I decide to let the green thoughts go until another time. and with the aid of the dusty and otherwise useless ones try to keep cool for the remainder of the day. The majority of the people in the car evidently have decided to do the same thing, as each face wears a "don't care whether school keeps or not" expression.

Old Sol is smiling down mercilessly on the already overheated pavements and the patience of human nature is very near the melting point. Uncomfortable, perspiring men are pushing along on the shady side of the street. trying to convince themselves that there it is cooler than on the opposite side. The sun strikes the brick walls across the way and is reflected back to them hot- ter than ever. Now and then a passer-by.

The wind is northeast, but one would hardly find it out in the street. Ution the house-top the air has a tantalizing vigor, but one cannot stay on a tin roof in the broiling sun. How to get out of the heat is the question that is uppermost in men's minds.

Stocks and bonds are forgotten. Political and social strifes have married each other in the heat and are lost for a time in the sea of oblivion, and men are as usual sighing for what is' 1, not. What a pity some one cannot direct them to the path leading to Airsztrow Marvell's Garden. where they can do all the things, even to the "stumbling on melons" and "falling on grass," which he did; or to some such spot as Rose Elizabeth Cleveland describes. where all that has worried and wearied and exerted is wiped out of the consciousness, and all life is simmered through green leaves Annihilating all that's made To a green thought in a green shade.

In such a place it would be an easy matter to forget Old Sol's inhumanity to man, to drive away all thoughts of the Butcher and baker and candlestick-maker. Here we are at Rowe's wharf. It seems that half the people of Boston had made uo their minds to board the Nantasket and get out of the heat. The bell rings, the boat swings out into the bay and we are off. Evervhohy tries to get well no into the bow.

No one minds the sun now. for it is tempered by a deliciously cool breeze. It is remarkahle how quick the tired look vanishes from the faces of the passengers. On the shady side of the boat is a darky, his eves glowing above a great junk of watermelon. looking as happy as though he were in heaven.

A large proportion of the lawns in city, village and country are deteriorating, and close examination shows the turf to be thin, the desirable grasses weak, browning quickly under drought and hot sun, while coarse, unsightly plants creep in and retain a foothold. The beauty of the lawn diminishes with at in spite liberal fertihzing and close and regular cutting. Vhat is the reason? Otainly, it is the excessive use of the modern lawn mower. In nearly every locality may be found pa-tore lands long set with grasses tine and rich, holding color well under midsummer sun and drought, with a thick, elsstie turf, through which no color of soil can be seen the very perfection of a lawn if it were trimmed close and eA en. 'Why does the pasture ficurish through a score years and the lawn decay? simply because the pasture is kept nearly under natural conditions and the lawn is to an intense dwarfing system.

suppose the lawn is newly made, according to the best instructiens, time soil deeply drug, enriched and mane clean and tine, the sted sown and the grass plants show thick and strong. What next? The lawn mower two or three a week until growth stops in autumn. Next spring the grass makes a renewed struggle for existence, starts early and strong again. It lifts Its blades to the sun and air that it may pash its roots into the rich soil for moisture and sustenance. 'the effort is promptly met by the 1twn mower.

Growth is checked above and under ground: so through an entire season and succeeding years. The law is that the root growth of the Plant is in Proportion to its top growth: the root growth is shallow. Of what avail is a deep, rich soil? Is it a wonder that the lawn browns early and that coarse hardy plants get a foothold? Give the grAss plant a chance to make adeuuate root growth if yen would have and keep a gr.od lawn. Read the lesson of the pasture lands. Enconraze it a little in early spring, and in the autumn lay the lawnmoA er away eartY and let a thick strong growth grass be the winter protection of the lawn.

But he cared little whether teliants pahtdient to hie father or "the campaign fund," was an out-and-out good 'fellow. and was fairly worshipped among the h'yee" for his well-known apostacy from eallourism, and espevially for the free hand with which he dispensed his American-earned mopey, not always without a touch of tenderness among the poor and sutTeriug but always with such lack of partiality that half the parish were constantly in an uproar from Practical Joking and Poteen. But neither Ned Hobson nor Mr.

Parnell have looked upon the tine faces of the Shanbally yeomanry since1886. One June morning of that year as Hobson rode down into the village from his father's barracky old mansion. he noticed a general air of suppressed impertance pervading the little place. Never since Father Mathew had preached his great temperanee sermon in Shanbally. which was hospitably and heroariously applauded at the time, but condemned in the privacy of the home.

as calculated to "spile the sperrit of the byes." had the village shown such general agitation. From the humblest village shaughran up to Father Grady. who "attinded their sowls and kept a pig." there was a kindling and awakening in the manner of all "Morning, bore" said Hobson. genially. dismounting at 'Foxy Driscoll's" shebeen, the only place ot public resort in all Shea-belle.

"What's the excitement about this Half the town's gostheripg at the etreet corners, and I suppose the other half would bo out. too, if they went in jail or dodging summonses. What have you been up to now. another landlord; a friendly turn with the constabulary; tr ducking a few more English tourists?" "Glory he to God." replied Foxy Driscoll solemnly. "Shanbally wor niyer behind-hand in standing out boldly for her rights.

Hobson, ready for anything that promised undue hilarity. "From a proper pride in the town that has known me from childhood," be said. but with a portentous twinkle in his merry eyes, which remark was greeted with loud shouts of approval and cries of, "Oh.

thim's the beautiful sin-1 "les in parlaymint yet honor shud be!" "Ned wor iver wid us, heavin he thanked!" and the like. They made him chairman at once, which he procerly acknowledged at Foxy Driscoll's bar: he appointed a committee of 12 from the admiring Shanballvites around him; he compelled their emulation by a discourse on the liberality at rival BelIyheen. where ele was raised for the Par-hell demonstration: and in a jiffy. on heading the list with el himseif. had C2710s.

Within a day or two Ned was on hand with his report of a plan for the forthcoming demonstration.

In so important an affair as this, be urged, the eye, the ear. the heart and the inner man must all be touched. Banners and mottoes should be had in profusion. Those which had already done righteous duty at the incarceration of divers Shanbally victims in Kilmainham jail bad boon procured. Ballybeen bad had four pipers making the air heavy with "God save Ireland." For every one of the Bellyheen pipers a great nand of music bad been secured.

There were the eye and the ear done for. Parnell himself. Father Grady and other illustrious patriots, would take care of the heart. For the inner man, as tine a cold collation as one would joy to see. with a rousing barrel of whiskey to keep it comeanY, would be sot in Mike Hennessey's barn.

With this emphatic, assurance, the only man since George Washington's time who has avoided fiction in his dealings with humanity leaned in his chair, straightened out his legs until they as still as billiard cues, and waited for a reply.

Also on this rack there is the number of the bell to which the rope belongs, Through these holes ropes are Passed, and are fastened to cleats that are driven in the bottom lower racks. Some frames have cylinders that 'move cleats, and to tighten the ropes the cylinder is turned. It enables the operator to play his pieces in regular time and to vlaY them well. The ropes are attached by irou elbows and springs to the clappers of the bells, and are more elastic when pulled by the hand alone than by a lever attachment.

Bell ringing by machinery is but little used in this country. It is probable that there are few carillons in this country. At Buffalo. N. it is understood that there is a carillon of 4S bells, and those are rung by a cylindrical shaped machine which is turned by a heavy weight, and that only four tunes can be played in succession upon them.

In England and Belgium machine bell ringing is used quite extensively. Belgium has the greatest number. The machine called the clavecin and is used in almost every well-stored belfry of that country. For nearly two centuries chlinesor carillons have been used in Belgium. and in that country some of the most difficult music has been performed upon bells.
