According to this day's astral op- erations it may require strict at- {tention to business to keep out of | difficulties. Under the strongly-ad- | verse position of Mars there may be |a tendency to be irritable and quarrelsome and to fly for relief | from provoked grievances to law-- | which may prove disastrous. Aside from impulsive actions there may be found some delays and disappoint- ments. Those in the employment of others, however, are under excell ent aspect for recognition or ad- vancement. Those whose birthday it is may has ang studying. |been awarded medals and testimon- [there came the crude drums made | {from skins and the first wind instru- | [1ients accidentally discovered | | through reeds and hollow pieces of | | weod. So, on down through the ages | {the development continued, culmin- | |ating in the cornets, flutes, saxo- | {phone#, French horns, violins, vio- | |lcncellos, guitars, banjos, mando- | [tins harps, pianos, and majestic or- | {gans of the present day. | The greatest of all these is un- | {doubtedly the violin, for, though it | cannot surpass the perfect human | voice, yet there are so few human | voices perfectly trained and develop- ied that the violin is called upon to | jou the vacaney thus created. In the i hands of masters, this instrument | can be so expressive that it is often | jclaimed to surpass the human ex- | Lpression in its wonderful notes and |chords, and the why and wherefore | [of all this 'forms the basis of a very | iinteresting study. | | Some years ago, T. H. Sargent, | (well-known local druggist, became | | interested in violins, not only for nd variation of design and his in- terest soon led him to develop a 'hobby along this line. He began col- decting violins of all kinds, picking up an odd one here and there and gradually retaining the more val- uable and interesting specimens in a separate collection until now his display is certainly worth seeing Recently Mr, Sargent received some of the productions of Auguste Delivet, the celebrated French violin maker of the present day, who has fals all over Europe for his work. Delivet has succeeded in combin ing all the best points of the pro- ductions of the old masters in his Wiolins and a very limited namber of his works have been secured in Canada. Several of these are now on display in Sargent"s window. They are valued at $250. With these modern violins, Mr. Sargent has placed some of the hest in bis private collection in order that a comparison may be made be- tween the ancient and the modern and also that Kingstonians may have an opportunity of seeing some real- ly high class instruments. In the collection may be found an Italian instrument made in 1710: another of Italian make made 'in 1762 valu- ed at $500; a violin of French design made in 1810 and another of Eng- lish workmanship produced in 1760, 'along with other beautiful instru- nents of varying ages and 'designs. With them are some of the famous Tubbs bows, with two valued at $125 and $100 each and the whole display is interspersed with raw ma- terials used in the production of the jnstruments. - Some of the wood used must bes 'seasoned for nearly half.a century 'and one block in particular, select- ed for the making of ths back of an Instrument from some rare striped wood, is worth about one dollar per Lave a year calling for much pat- ience and self-restraint in order to | {reap business satisfaction. Those in the employment of others should rush for recognition or promotion if | undeniably deserving, but should not be too impetucus or contentious. A child born on this day will be ar- dent and may make its best success in the employment of others.
