Waves OfS0und..

Experiments prove that sound is SIM
ply applying force to the air which moves
in Il succession of nnduIatory vibrations,
Every word spoken is a breath force
pushing column OF air from the exte-
rior Of the month. When sounds arc
produced in IL long orgain pipe or q
short one the difference is made thus !:
the vibrations are made slow in the first
and quick III the other. Vibration or
waves are one thousand in a second in
one, for example, and four thousand in
the other in the same second. But
wavelets of sound move oil in space
with equal velocities and both arrive at
the ear at the same instant.
On the law of accoustics depends the
pleasures derived from music. If tho
notes did not travel with equal speed
there would be utter confusion, all har-
mony being destroyed if one sound ar
rived too late for carrying on the chain
of acoustic vibrations within the ear.
But the apparatus for receiving sound
and anal yzing it SO as to derive both
qualification and instruction from its
impulses nn a few threads of neryes
finer than the smallest thread ever
spun, is one of the curiosities of animal
organism.

A New Double Baby
Times OF Iudiu.l

There is at present IN Bombaya living
object that may rightly be classtd among
the most curious phenomena OF nature.
At house III Mazag0n may uc seeD a
pair OF female Twins, separate Ill every
respect but from the hrenst-bOHe to the
lower part of the abdOnlen, which Is
closely joined. The upper breast bune
OF each infant is linked into the other,
the outer skin covering both trunks.
The twins are Joined front to front !;
shoulders, arms, lower limbs and feet
perfectly formed, and Development
healthy, while the heads are we'll shaped
and the faces really pretty, with beaul-
tul eyes, large and bright. HE tWlns
are SIX months and twenty days old, are
in perfect health, and measure twenty
inches in height, cue appearlng-but III
very trliilDg degree-larger than the
other. Both have vigorous appttites,
and take kindly to the feeding bottle,
are extremely lively, and appear good
tempered.
The pulses beat III unison, they gen
orally fall asleep OF keep awake together
and their actions are unusually stimuli
taneUus, though sonitinle one would cry
while the other was quietly drawing the
mOuthpiece of its bottle. The strangely
united pair were born at Dabouii, i'll the
Rutnagherry Collectorate, the father
being Mohanmedan and seafallne
mau, while the mother has besides q
pretty little daughter about 10. Accord
ing to the formers account, be called il
q native doctor at Rutnagherry, whost
opinion was that there was a connec-
ton internally between the abdomens
SO that of whatever sustenance the ont
took portion passed to the other
However ttat may be, the infants feeC
separate, each having bottle to itself
and draw vigorously at their nour!fh
ment. This same doctor also declared
it would he impossible to separate then
without extinguishing life. The tvin
have up to this time never been i'll, ant
in every appearance are likely to grow
up.

Whenever our Indians break out in

tiers. we are told that it is s,ecalse We
do not know how to deal with the
savages, aud advised to cast our eyes
over the border and study the Indian
system of Canada. Notwithstanding
these praises of the Canadian Indian
Bureau, the Dominion appears to have
lust as much trouble with its redskins
as we do. It has very unpleasant
Indian difficulty on its hands at present.

were admirably filled, and the music

knowledge that we we're surprised at

them again. Caste was decided
success, and great improvement upon
