From far and wide people found their way recently to Cattistock, in Dorset, to hear a recital by a cele- | brated Belgian musician. It was no still indoor function. The number in J the audience was hard to estimate, . since it was scattered over various meadows and gardens within a radius of at least half a mile. What instrument manageable by one executant could set so much space vi- | brating? No organ, not even a brass ; band, could have conquered the open ' (says the Daily Mail). The instrument was the five tons of bronze of the famous Cattistock carillon. The Netherlands are the home of this joyous jangling aerial music. There are not half a dozen proper carillons in the British Isles, and this one at Cattistock is played upon only once a year, on. the occasion of the annual visit of M. Joseph Denyn, of- Malines, Belgium, in default of a British executant on the brave instrument. Cattistock boasts the first and also the most complete carillon installed in a British belfry. It owes the tower and ' most of the bells to a former rector, the Rev. Keith Barnes, and the present rector raised the number of bells to 35. The bells cover a range of two octaves and a third, and are played at a kind of-keyboard connected with pedals, very much like a primitive orgam Carillon music at its most effective pitch consists of a tenor and two very high rteble parts, and what is surprising is the effect of sustained melody ob- : tamed by means of octave tremolos. M. Denyn played some airs of Meni delssohn, a set of variations by : Playel, some Flemish folk songs and also popular British airs. This music j ringing through the sunny air and the ■ leafage of lanes and gardens made a j bright jubilation of sound all. its own. There is no denying that it is glaringly out of tune. That is apparently a , fault not to be avoided in carillon music, out it is a music that seems to be winning its way slowly in Britain. j Five carillons have been installed in British belfries in the past forty years, and Loughborough, Leicestershire, next . lear is to have a sixth, which is promised to be the most perfect in the world. So far the only carilloners are j ".he Netherlanders.

! A Timaru man who was eating a slice of bread at breakfast the other morning found (states the Post) that he was chewing something hard and pointed, and on investigation was surprised to find that he had been chewing a triangular shaped piece of glass, the edges nearly a quarter of an inch m length. Had he swallowed it, it would have caused a serious illness, and it is fortunate that the fragment was big, as a smaller piece might have been swallowed without being noticed.
