THE WORLD'S GREATEST ORGAN. —* Among the newer things of which.the city of Sydney 13 moat proud is the greatorgan-. It is said by the careless to bo ,tho largest in the. world; but that is a mistake. There was a greater at the Exposition of .St. Louis and that ono still exists. The Sydney organ has 128 stops; the St. Louis organ WO. Next comes the organ in the Cathedral of Eire, 124 -stops. After that, the big organ : at Garden City, Long Island, _ 114 stops. Anyhow, the St. - Louis monster is easily the. largest. It is capablo of producing 17,179,868,183 distinct tonal effects. At the rate of ono a minute, the' production of.thcin would tako 32,000 years. That seems a long time. But if you put 32,000,000 years into the quest, you would utterly fail to find a finer, more delicate better flavoured, wholesomer tea than Suratura! You can get it at any good grocers, and it costs no more than the ordinary teas. This' is a wonderful-century.. . .jj
