The Screaming Habit.
No two persons hear exactly alike.
The human internal ear is best de-
Icribed by likening it to a grand piano.
'Thlt instrument has a key for every
note; the human ear has a nerve file-
ment for every tone and its variations.
Did I say for every tone? That is a
inletalte. Some pianos have seven oc-
taves, some have eight; some have bet:
ter tone in one portion of the keyboard
than in another. Exactly so with the
human ear. Some persons hear acute:
1y; they catch sounds that to others are
but silence. Some tones strike the ear
drum, but are not conveyed to the
brain because their corresponding
nerve filament is missing. We know
of defective hearing, but we do not up-
ply our knowledge to our reasoning
when we are stating our opinions or im-
prfisions. To some a high note is a
positive pain. and to such care a sour-
ing soprano will do nothing but shriek.
Others will detest the lower tones. Au-
imals are moved out of their wanted
calm by the sound of certain notes.
It should be our endeavor to cultivate
tones of softness and sweetness. A low
tone is the voice of comfort and conso-
lation, of deepest, most sacred emotion.
Our society women should do all they
can to counteract the screaming habit
of Americans. ——- Di Vernon in San
Francisco Newsletter.
Two Ugly lien.
The Due de Requelaure was a man
of great ugliness and much humor. Ono
day he met in the street a most unlove-
ly looking Auvergnat, who had some
petition or memorial to present at Ver-
sailles. He immediately introduced
him to Louis XIV, remarking that he
.a was under a special obligation to him.
.‘ The king granted the favor asked for
and then inciired oi the duo what
might be the n..‘”uro of the obligation.
“But for him. your majesty, I should
be the ugliest men in your dominions!"
I am reminded of Heidegger, the
manager of the opera house in the
Huymarket when George ll was king.
One day he laid a wager with the Earl
of Chesterfield that he would not find
in all London an uglier face than his.
After a long search the earl produced
a Woman ot St. Giles’ who at first
seemed to outvie the manager. but when
the latter put on the woman‘s headgear
his superior ugliness was at once ad-
mitted—All the Year Round.
A Chlnnmnn’e Claim For Insurance.
One of Bostcn‘s insurance men in-

industrious Chinaman both as shop and

Criminal Women.
Professor Lomhroso. the eminent
Italian scientist who holds such very
strong adverse opinions as to the abil-
ity of women to feel pain as acutely as
men do, has lately been pursuing his
investigations in another direction. and
he has now delivered himself of the
unqualified opinion that women of the
criminal and immoral type are invari-
ably larger of hands and feet and small-
er in the head than average women.
