"CRADLE SONGS ARE ANCIENT
Words Often Seem Meaningless Jum-
ble; Melody Always Within Com-
pass of Home Voices.
Almost all popular cradle songs are
very old, some of them so old that,
were they not familiar, they might be
considered the veriest curiosities of
literature. Through all the changes
of language they have held their own
upon the lips and in the hearts of the
people. From mouth to mouth they
have come down through the years
with an irresistible swing of rhythm
and patter and jingle of words till
they seem to have been rather a nat-
ural growth than a human invention.
In all the melodies, observe a wri-
ter, there is a certain likeness of
rhythm with a national, 1 might say a
temperamental difference of movement
and a meter from the slow assured
major of the German to the wild plain-
by the short ascented notes or the
weirdness of the Hungarian with its
sudden changes. :
That these old songs shomd have
embodied and retained the character-
istics of the people among whom they
originated gives them an importance
which their crude words and the ele-
mentary character of their melodies
scarcely seem to warrant. The words
often seem a mere meaningless jum-
ble, the melody is always within the
easy compass of home voices. No
doubt both express, in some supernally
wise way, the one unalterable senti-
ment of maternal love.

Worse Than the Barbers’ Union.
In the reign of Elizabeth every beard
of a fortnight’s growth was subject to
a tax of 83 cents. Peter the Great, in
1705, imposed a tax upon the beards
of the Russian nobles of 100 rubles,
while the common people's beard tax
amounted to 1 kopec. This tax caused
much dissatisfaction, but in spite of
this the impost was extended to St.
Petersburg in 1714. The tax on beards
was confirmed by Catherine I in 1726,
by Peter II in 1728, by Empress Anne
in 1731, and in 1743 by the Empress
