Instrument Was Known to Ancient Greeks and 'Romans. It is said the drum was introduced by the Moors in Europe from the east after the Crusaders, but under various forms it was certainly known to the Greeks and Romans, for the tympa- num is frequently alluded to in the classics, which probably included the tambourine and kettle drum. In the modern orchestra three prin- cipal forms of the drum are to be found. The common or side drum, the Clerk, our alines contain enough coal bass or Turkish drum, and the kettle to carry us along, at the present rate drum, of consumption, to about the year The first is usually composed of a 2400 -another five hundred years, If, cylinder of wood or metal, Each end however, the tendency to increase our is covered with vellum or parchment, consumption is not checked, our coal Um tension being regulated by strings, stores may begin to run out in two th By the Treaty of Petri, (arrange -(1 at 4etses• It is worn at the side of the performer hundred years. the Congress of Vlenue't, France, Like most topical songs', this one towine it was provided that, if the and his ll," said who beats the upper end, called the We are using up the world's coal, which was reduced to her 1. nits in i was of short-lived popularity; but in towing rope, instead of slipping along "Very well,' said Clemenceau, "I wish .,hatter head;' with sticks, the ender and we cannot look to geological pro- 1790, mulertrok to pay a large :nun to 1 the .Allies for war expeneee fel ,a °• the increased tense= of the rope netll- trenches where the soldiers stead, gun gut strings called snares, which add millions lrlric11 went to Whale ties Marie Antoinette Lave birth to an heir, to the sharp crisp tone of the instru- handed to the Netherlands for rc-;tn:• .:11 ,1 the baby prince, in accordance ' aced the striking mechanism awl fired in hon, ready to go "over the tole' Mg the beerier fortresses) to maintain with French custom, was placed un- the charge.

"How long will our coal last?" is a question which many of us have asked lately; but we have merely been thinking of our own cellars. In a na- tional sense, the question has not 'worried us, says a London newspaper, Yet one day it may worry our des- cendants.

The Tartars Have an )vet face, black eyes, placed obliquely, and their skin is brown, Their costume is unusual, the distinguishing feature being their coiffure, over which is worn a tight -fitting calotte, or skull cap. Tartars Numerous, A considerable number of Tartars live in the Altai Mountains, on the frontier of China. They are still no- mads and given over to idolatry, Many of them worship the sun. The people of the Mongolian race in- habiting Russia, either European or Siberian, should be generally divided into groups, The Finnish group in- clude Finns, Esthouians, Mordva and Cheremises, The Tartar group is com- posed of Tartars and smaller tribal peoples. An important nomadic Mongollan tribe is the ICir•ghis who live in the steppe regions of Altmulinak and Semipalatiusky. They aggregate more than a million of both so :ea, speak a Turkish dialect and are devout nl0s- aulmans. They aro chilly cattle raisers.
