CARE OF 1HC PIANO. If Von lliippon to Jlivo O14B, ThU I How ti Trent IT." A skilled pianist nevor nllcws Ills beloved instrument to staud up against the wall in his room, a ripawsof at loast a foot being allowed, nuy a music dealer. This is to prevout damp and allow a passage of dry, warm air. The ' precaution is especially nojcssary in a briolc house where tho wall 5b 'an outr fildo one. Ilrtclcs aro tiuything but damp proof, and unlovi tho wall is "furred" there will bo considerable, dampness, especially when tho first flre'ls lighted for the fall. Dampness Is fatal to a piano, because, among other reasons, tho rosewood used in making tho frame is tropical wood, ,ar.d notcapab'o of resisting uioisturo for any length of Unit. In n carelessly kept piano tho polis.li is bud, and the varnish looks as though nn ai my of insets had been at work on It. This h bo 'nnso the wood has , stretched and shrunk with gre.it rapidity owing to getting damp and than J&liig dilcd again, and a musi cian seldom enres to buy huefi an in .sthinrtfnt, knowing that tho delicate interior has buffered at least to some flxj,eht with the exterior. Taking ,barb of 11 plnno is lialf tho battle, and llie less dampness tho less expenditure iiwTT&.sury iu ucuv u m uuie. WiT TIMEPIECE. The Womtnrfol OloeU 'TJut Ornnuionts IlflliiilMpliU's Town Hull. Tho greatest horologlenl wonder lr the world to day is th-3 gigantic cloak in the tower of the immense "public bulld.ng" at Philadelphia. When everything is iu running order this .marvel of tho cloekmalter's art will bo 'stationed a distance of 315 foot from tJ'C pavement. Its boll imighs be 'Weau 30,000 and 23,000 pounds, un.l is the second largest bell of any kind in America, the gre'it ball at Montreal peing tho largest, weighing 28,000 pounds.
