On April 6, 1759, Handel attended a performance of the “Messias™ at Cov- London, which was his last appearance, for on the Saturday d at his house in Brook 2lish metropolis. Though Handel became a natur- subjéct, and he left behind s adopted country, a mame and rity which never has been, and probably never will be, rivaled by that of any other composer.

In spite of this, some friendly hand contrived to convey into the house & clavichord which was concealed in a garret, where, without being discovered the hoy taught himself to play. He ad- vanced so rapidly that before he was ten vears of age he had a number 6f compositions to his credit,” and his pre- ceptor was compelled to confess that the boy knew more about music than him- self. Although Hemdel wrote a number of cperas and other large compositions, it was his setting to muslo of religious stories such as the “Messiah,"” “Israel in Feypt!) “Saul” eta, mpon whinh his fame rests most securely, and no com- poser els ever equalled him in this character of wer. The great works that Handel compos- ed after he was fifty years of age were: i” and “Isracl in Egypt” composed 1738; “Messiah,” in 1742; “Samson” “Joseph,” 1744; “Belshazzar’ and in 17 “Hercules” in 1745; “Judas Maccabae us” 1747; “Joshua.” 1748; “Solomon, 1748; “Susepna,” and “Theodora” in 1750 an his last aratorlo was “Jeptha,” composed in 1751 and performed in 1752. It was while engaged on this last that he was first at'poked by the ase which finally deprived him f his sight. Three times he was couched for cataract, but without success, and for the remainder of his life he was al- most totally blind.

No- where is religion a more potent politi- | cal faetor. “More than two-thirds of the peo- ple of India are Hindus, Modern Hinduism grew out of Brahmanism, and is still called by that name. The carlier belief was in one amnipotent but impersonal Being, whose personal ! manifestations - were Brahma, the Creator; Vishnu, the Preserver; and Siva, Destroyer and Reproducer.. Brahma has few fellowers. Vishnu is | wershipped by millions, upon ‘whose foreheads is painted a device called | the namam consisting of a vertical red line inside a U-shaped figure in white clay. But the favorite god of many Hindus is.
