THE SCIiAKTOIf ' TmJJUTCE FBIDAY MOKNIITO, OCTOBER 5, 1894. A' QUESTION OF NERVES. The Dread of Noise One of the Alarming Sign of Civilization. Although, according to certain philoso phers, sound ceases when noise begins, to the world at .largo there is no sharp divis ion, Tliuuuui Uood said that the Germans, for a musical nation, were the most noisy he ever met with, and Schopenhauer quoted the opinion with approval, alleging as a i-MUe that his countrymen do not think "tiiey only smoke, which is their substitute for thought," The great pes simist regarded noise as the assassin of thought, but Dr. Johnson made the same charge against music. As a nation we do light in the lirvcrackers of the Chinese and loathe their national music. They in turn cannot endure our scale and our sys tem of harmony. The Uustonian who does not jump ut discordant church chimes, Larsh uud out of tune, will fret at the street cries of u foreign city, although they lire oil ell pleusautly pitched and of rare historieal interest. The worshiper at the shriue of Brahms will stop her ear when "Mugie Murphy" issues from a new and improved hand or ean, iiilhwuidi thu melody is characteris tie, t lie rhythm of the performer is faultless mnl his bravura is of dazzling accuracy. There are people in Detroit to whom the factory whistles are such an annoyance that by u city ordinance workmen now go to tlni r labor uud return homeward in a depressing silence, and yet even the chro matic whistle, with its predominating color red uud its ascending wail, was heard with joy ut uouu by women who thus knew there was a loafing spell for their men. After all, this distinction be tween noise and sound is in a measure a question of individuality as well as of as sociation of ideas. When Elizabeth ruled England manual laborers and mechanical artificers sung at their work. The merry cobbler is extinct. Tli! tinker raises his voice in melody in Ir. De Koven's "Robin Hood," bnt in our daily life he gives vent to his feelings in prase. Our street cries ia America are few, cliielly in the mouths of wandering hucksters of fruits and vegetables. Their calls are all too short, as though they realized that even in this respect time is money. Then, too, they know that in the summer, when windows are open, their vocal approach is feared by our nervous citizens, whereas, if we were truly civil ized, it would be welcomed. It is true there should be a training school, and the work of Georges Kusluer should be the text book. Kach vegetable should have its peculiar rung. The butcher, the milkman, the hurler of ice, the buyer of old clo', tbo mender of windows or umbrellas, all other purveyors to httnuiu needs, should Serve a sonorous apprenticeship. The ori entals are our masters. They clothe the anuounceineut of their merchandise in po etic phrases; they recommend a fruit as a consolation; flowers are perfumes of para dise for the present delectation of the faith ful. Were we to adopt their methods, street cries might not in future be regard ed as so many varieties of noise, as terrible as a neighboring and busy pile driver. The unreasonable dread of noise is one of the must alarming symptoms of the sickly condition of our civilization. This is the ttgeof the nerves and of nervous diseases. And yet in spite of the prevailing fear of shocks to the ear, human ingenuity adds daily to the number of disturbing causes. Familiarity with such causes acts, it is said, like a potent, stupefying drug. But we cannot all attend the concerts of a sea sou, nor can we all live in the vicinity of a boiler factory. The growth of the flat should therefore be encouraged. The privacy iu such a dwelling is tumultuous. The kitchen is close to the parlor; voices aliove and below assume unnatural propor tions through the speaking trumpet of the elevator; the irritating electric bell is at the mercy of any flippant passer by. This discipline of a year may bring such cal lousness of nerve that the loneliness of an isolated farmhouse or the waste of ocean may in turn shttter the town dweller beyond repair. Boston Transcript. The I'mbrella la Very Valuable. "An umbrella is one of the most useful articles that a mun can carry with him." said Lunar J. Sannders, from Jackson, .Miss. "One can be used in a dozen differ ent ways. When the sun is shining hot, or when it is raining, a man without an umbrella must either remain Indoors or Mtlfer. As a weapon of defense there is nothing better. You can keep a man at his distance with one better than you could with a stick. Next to a shotgun or a pistol, there Is no more dangerous weapon. "I remember one time I was in a hotel that caught afire early in the morning. The guests were awakened by the stifling smoke and noise. My room was on the second floor. and by the time I had slipped on my pants the lire li.nl gained such headway that all avenues of escape were closed. But there was my umbrella and a window, and the rest was easy. "Another time I was walking through s pasture when a bull, with his eyes ablaze with lire, made for me. I kept my senses, and when he got within about llfty yards or me 1 ran toward him, opening and clos lug the umbrella as fast us I could. The bull wheeled around und ran from me faster than he ever ran before in his life, "And for frightening dogs, I had rather nave an umbrella thun an arsenal." St. Louis Republic The Why of It. The Hindoo fatalist extends to the in- telfectunl side of life. In grammar with them, as in destiny, a thing is so because it is so; fatalism kills out reason as it kills out spiritnnl effort and aspiration. I shall never forget, trying to get an explanation from a Hindoo teacher of finding, in some of their writings, a plural substantive mated to a singular verb. - "Why does not this plural noun take S plural verb?" "Because it takes a singular verb." "Whyf "Because it is right that it should do so." "Why wouldn't it be right that it should take a plural verbr" "Because it would be wrong." "But I thought plural substantives al ways took plural verbs!'" , "They do." "Vet this one does notf " "No; this one does not." "What rule governs it thenf" "There is no rule. It does so because It Is right that it should do so. Boston Transcript. Weuk Kyes from Round Keys. According to Dr. L. Webster Fox, a new cause of eye trouble has been found in typewriting machines. A patient called upon him who complained of sore eyes and a sensation as of sand under the eyelids, lie examined the eyes carefully and found no orgunio weakness, and on questioning the patient further found that he had been usinsa typewriter with round keys, and that the most trouble was experienced while at work. He advised the use of a machine with a black keyboard and rec tangular keys, and after a few months' trial of such a machine the patient had no more trouble. Analyst. - Self Defense.

Only a very few clever artists in Puns have attained reputation as ran painters, and many a great master in oils would not dare risk tun name in sucti woia. Detaille has painted a few fans with his characteristic military figures and one of the fans was sold in New York for a great sum. But Detaille seldom essays such work. Le Loire painted a fan that sold In New York for tfi.000. Madeleine Lemaire occasionally paints a fan, but it is seldom used except for wall decoration. Her prices for Biich work are from $3,000 to 13,000. There is a host of comparatively un known artists whose work, excellent in its way, is seen on fans that cost from $10 to 1150. Some of them sign assumed names to their work, and all are the hacks of the Parisian trade. The really famous fan painters of Europe are Albert, Chcsseviere, Houghton, Eugene Cicorl and Lassulier. Albeit is a painter of miniatures, and his training shows in bis work on fans. His figures have a remarkable beauty of finish. Cheneviere is strong in costumes. He de lights in depicting gay groups of Parisians. Houghton's work is noticeable for delicate finish.' Cicert is almost alone in painting Alpine scenes. He will cover the whole face of a fan with a great Alpine land scape, and one easily recognizable by those familiar with the Alps. Lussallez is pe culiarly rich in coloring. Fans painted by these artists are sold for I1S5 to 1500 each. New York Sun. The Growth of the Acorn. The acorn is the fruit of the oak; the seed germ is a very small object at the pointed end of the acorn, with the future root uppermost. The acorn drops, and its contents doubtless undergo important molecular and chemical changes while it lies under winter covering of leaves or snow. In the mild warmth of spring the acorn swells, the little root elongates, emerges from the end of the shell and, no matter what the position of the acorn, turns downward. The root penetrates the soil two or three inches before the stalk begins to show itself and grow upward. The "meat" of the acorn nourishes both root and stalk, and two years may pass be fore its store of food is entirely exhausted. At the end of a year the young oak has a root twelve to eighteen inches long, with numerous shorter rootlets, the stalk being from six to eight inches high. In this stage it differs from the sapling, and again the sapling differs from the tree. To watch these transformations under thelens is a fascinating occupation. Ohio State Jour nal. Forgotten Once Famous Days. Our Independence Day casts into obliv ion in this country some famous old holidays and holy days that ought not to be forgot ten. Who that speaks familiarly of the "dog days" remembers that the 3d of July is the first of these, famous days the day on which Sirius, tho dog star, first comes into conjunction with the sun. July 6 was the old midsummer day. It has lost that honor now, however, June 84 having re- reived it instead, although that is St. John's Day, and only three days later than the summer solstice, which marks the scientific beginning of summer. The 7th of July is the feast day of St. Thomas a Becket, who, though a famous saint for years, is now remembered chiefly as the cause of the pilgrimage to Canterbury which Chancer has immortalized. St. Louis Globe-Democrat. The Motto on the Coins. The motto "E Pluribus Unum" has never been authorized by congress. Its first appearance on a coin was in 1TSC, before the establishment of a Lmted States mint, At that time there was a private coining establishment at Newburg, N. Y., and the well known motto was first inscribed upon a coin struck at that "mint." It was a copper coin of the value of about one pen ny, or something near two cents. They are now very valuable, and but few coin collectors can boast of owning such rari ties. Philadelphia Press. A Lemon In Speculation. "Well," said a Detroit man who had gone south when the real estate craze was on, "I was down in Tennessee and Alabama for only six weeks and I came back with tAOOO. "Jerusalem!" exclaimed a speculator, "How did you get it?" "Took it with me," was the response, and the speculator caught on to the idea that a penny saved might be a penny earned. Detroit Free Press. The "Imperial" Diamond. The largest sum ever asked or offered for a single diamond is 430,000, which the nizam of Hyderabad agreed to give to Mr, Jacobs, the famous jeweler of Simla, for the "Imperial" diamond, which is con sidered the finest stone in the world. Ex change. The Tallest Lighthouse. The tallest lighthouse tower is 1S9 feet from its base to the center of the lantern, at Cape Hatteras. Highest above the sea level is the one at Point Loma, at the en trance of San Diego bay, California, 403 feet above the ocean. Boston Globe. He Told the Truth. Mrs. Snooper Men make me tired.

The latest experimenter on the auroral line infers that aurorte only appear at a con siderable height in temperate zones, while in the auroral zone proper the phenomenon is generally produced in the lowerer at mosphere. Our animal friends have less than we of that evil perseverance which makes a boy persist against bis nature until he is able to smoke. If the dumb brute finds a thing distasteful or painful, he seldom touches it again. Telephones in service in the United States number nearly 512,500, and the total length of line is over a quarter of a million miles. There are 173 different pieces in tho aver age watch, requiring in its manufacture 2,400 separate and distinct operations. Wear and Tear of Iron Balls. Taking the length of the permanent ways on the surface of the globe at nearly 60,000 geographical miles, with a daily average ot ten trains, it is estimated that the total loss by wear and tear suffered each day by the metallic rails of the earth is about 600 tons. The 600 tons are lost in the form of a fine powder, and are carried back to the earth in the shape of soluble Iron salts. xanxee Blade. Rich and Poor In London. According to a writer, rather more than sixty-nine persons in every hundred in London are living in comfort, while rather more than thirty in every hundred are liv ing in poverty. Of these twenty-two are poor and seven very poor, while not quite one person in every hundred belongs to the "lowest classes." Fried Wasp Grubs. Young wasp grubs fried in butter do not at first sight appear to be the most allur ing dish in the world, yet they have been pronounced delicious by -those hardy ex perimenters who ha ve tried them. Fed as they are upon the sweetest juices drawn from fruits and flowers, they naturally possess a delicate flavor. Perhaps the best way to prepare them ia to baka them In the comb. Table, Helping with Inflnence. " In a rather low and crowded basement ot one of the city's shops recently a customer stood waiting for a parcel near an elevated desk, where a young woman was acting as cashier of the department. Directly over the girl hong a strong electric- light A man, evidently an attache of the establish ment who looked after the lights, came along, extinguished the light, and pro ceeded to lower and clean it. The girl drew a breath of relief. "I wish you wouldn't put the thing back," she said. "W hy," said the man, "is your head bad again?" 'It's always bad," complained the girl, "while that whirring glare is in my face." The man laughed sympathetically. "Sorry, but I can't help it," he said; and a moment later the dazzling globe swung in position again and he went on to finish his rounds. But it chanced that the woman who heard this was a benevolent and energetic one, and she was besides a rich and long standing patron of the store. She asked the girl at the desk a few questions to dis cover thut the "bad head" described an al most permanent condition of dizziness and fullness, which, rightly 'or wrongly, she attributed to the electric light. The cus tomer listened and sympathized and went straight from the basement to the mana ger's office, where her statement of the case and plea for a change in the situation of electric light or desk received probably more attention than it would have doue from a less prominent woman. At all events, within a few days the cashier's desk in thut basement was moved, and a small gas jet, shaded, supplied the extra light needed. It would be well, however, if there were more rich customers to come to the rescue of dazzled clerks, or more managers to investigate if such rescue is needed. Her Point of View in New York Times. A Great Natural Sounding Board. "The queerest country I ever saw," said Simon Asking, for twenty-eight years a soldier on the American frontier, "is that immediately about Dry luke. in Lassen county. I was a sergeant there under General Wheaton during the Modoc war. Dry lake usually has no water in it at all. It is almost an arid plain, with some al kali scattered here and there over it, and its area is about 2i by 4 miles. On one side are the Pit River mountains and on another are big pine woods, while to the west are the fumous lava beds in which the Indians hid during that last great Cal ifornia struggle with the savages. "Well, a winding road leads up from the valley into the curious basin. If a horse walk on this road anywhere, even two or three miles outside the border of the dry lake, he can be heard for many and many miles up in the interior. The ground all about there sends forth a hollow sound. Reverberations can be heard everywhere. Whether there are any caves or lost rivers there I cannot say, but though I have been almost everywhere on the fron tier I never found anything like it. A foot fall may be beard like a sound in a great cavern. ".Many a night when, as a soldier on duty, we anticipated an attack from the Indians or the arrival of couriers or sup plies, I have put my ear to the ground. If a horse was moving about anywhere with in miles he could at once easily be detect ed. This enabled us to put ourselves in an attitude of defence. It is a great gallery, a whispering gallery it may be called, where the acoustics are so perfect that any thing said is published to the world. All the country about there has ears. Even the caw of a crow or the notes of a song ster take on a weird sound." San Fran cisco Examiner. Hero Worship. Men have a poor eye for the truest heroes round about them in their own day. Their hero worship is concerned chiefly with the past. Emerson said of Webster at the time of the fugitive slave law, when Gar rison and Phillips and Parker and Whittier were waging their great fight, "He knows the heroes of 1776, but cannot see those ot 1851 when he meets them in the street." However severe this view of1 Webster may be, the word is true of a thousand thou sand men. It is as common today as it was in Christ's time and before Christ's time, for men who busy themselves in painting the tombs of the prophets to ba just as busy iu stoning the prophets sent unto their own generation. Carlyle himself, the greatest of all our hero worshipers, whose name rushes to our lips at the very mention of heroes and heroism, bad but a poor eye and ear fo the heroic figures and voices of his own epoch. He never caught Mazzini's vision, He hardly understood what Mazzini was about in the world, even when be had him for his neighbor and went in and out with him day by day. There had been no con siderable exhibition of heroism in England, according to his vision, for two centuries no real body of heroes since the Puritans. It may well be doubted whether, had he been the contemporary ot Cromwell or of Luther, whom he celebrated so well, he would not have been found their enemy and counted them malcontents, busylxxlles and disorderly fellows. Edwin D. Mead In Mew England Magazine. Malice of Old Surah Churchill. An electioneering squib written in the reign of William III describes the scene of the bustlings in Guildhall, when the platform was crowded by "all the folks in furs, from sables, ermines aud the skins ot curs." Swift has mentioned a "Ballad Full of Puns," which was produced dur ing the Westminster election of 1710. But we have more precise records of the deeply designed stroke of electioneering policy ascribed to old Surah, duchess of Marl borough, who, wishing to auuoy George Grimstone, who was opposing the success of her nominees, hud a fresh edition printed of a very stupid comedy called "Love in a Hollow Tree," which hac? been written by Lord Grimstone, aud which, being heartily ashamed of it, he had suppressed. The implacable Sarah reprinted the silly play, and affixed to it an engraving representing an elephant dancing on a tightrope. Lon don Telegraph. Wolseley's Error as to a Law Lord. Whatever else may be said about Lord Wolseley, this at least is certain when he peaks as be did in Dublin of the road to tuccess in the army being paved with, hard work, he is the hero of his own epic. It is perhaps tho knowledge of his own career that has caused him to think the road to the woolsack Is similarly con structed. Well, that of course is compli mentary to the bar and the bench, but illustration is sometimes perilous when it ieals with men and their lives. For instance, Lord Wolseley took the lase of the lord chancellor ot Ireland, who I really gained the woolsack through the 1 bouses of parliament and not through the 1 tour courts. In twenty-five years Mr.. Gibson, now Lord Ashbourne, held but: three briefs in the court over which he tow presides. Iiondon Broad Arrow. A CUrtti FOR LOVE, A cure for love?

A gentleman was in the habit of shoot ing in a very wild and rocky section ot the country. Part of the rocky ground was on the side of a very high hill, not accessi ble to sportsmen, and from this hill the hares and foxes, which were the chief game of the region, would at night betake themselves to the plains below. Leading from Utuse rocks to the lower ground were two gullies made by the rains, near one of which the vcracions gentleman who tells the story stationed himself and his attend ant one night In the hope of bilging some bares. Hardly had they taken np their position when they perceived a fox creeping stealthily down through the gully, fol lowed closely by another. Afteruey had played together for a few minutes one of the foxes went into hiding under end of the larger rocks at the end of the gully, and the other having apparently bidden him good night sneaked back up the hill again. In a moment he was back, bnt before him, racing down through the gully being chased, in fact was a hare fleeing for her life, and as the intended victim was pass ing the rock where the first fox lay con cealed he tried to selr.e her by suddenly springing upon her, but bis aim was bad and he missed. The pursuing fox came up at this mo ment, and finding that the lack of skill ot his co-conspirator had resulted in the loss his supper, he began to snap and snarl at the other in such a fashion that the spirit of the offending fox was aroused, and a rough and tumble fight resulted. They fought fiercely for several minutes, but as neither seemed to be getting the better ot the other, the huntsman himself took the matter in hand and shot them. Harper's Young People.
