In their illusions to tho inuslcnl nrt our novelists commit the most ninnzlng blun ders with tho most serene oonsolonce, blunders of which any schoolgirl would be Hshuincil, and from which no more troublo than is necessary to turn over the leaves of a dictionary or muslo might nnvo saved tlx ii. Ono novelist, for oxnmplo, makes hi hero n soprano. Another plotures a Soottlsh hlghlnnder slttlngon tho roadside singing n Jnooblto song and nooompany- lug himself on the bagpipe. Air. Mnrlon Crawford has ascribed "La Fnvorltn" to Vrnll, a feat paralleled by Mr. Blnok in setting n lady down to n piano to play Ileethovcn's "Farewell," a composition unknown to that muslclnn's many ndmlr ers. Mr. liltiok has again distinguished himself by describing one of his herolnos ns playing an unheard of and lmposslblo sonata of Moznrt's in A sharp mnjor. Ono of the early popes stigmatized tho Inno cent scale of C major ns lascivious and banished It from tho muslo of tho churoh. One onn understand Mr. Blaok's key of A sharp major being placed on tho Index ex purgntorlus of tho muslolan, for the ten shorps which would be requlrod to make up Its signature would frighten a Dlnbolus among plnno players.

The Antiquity of the Glove. The antiquity of glovos has long been in dispute. The question turns upon tho rendering of n passago In tho fourth chap ter of the book of Itutb, verses 7, 8: "Now this was tho mannor In former tlmo In Israel concerning redeeming and concerning ohnnglng, for to confirm all things; a man plucked off his shoo and gave It to his neighbor, nml this wns a testimony in Israel. Therefore tho kins man said unto Iiouz, Duy It for theo. So ho drew off his shoo." For shoe, In these verses, It Is said we ought to read glove. On this mutter M.

It Is further stated that the an cient nml modern rabbins agree In render ing tho word from the original as "glovo," nml that Joel Levy, a celebrated German translator, gave, Instead of shoo, hs plo turtsqtio native term of hand schuh, hand shoe, by which gloves are known In Ger many to this day.
