TACTuAL PERCEPTIVENESS.
Singular Development of the Nerve Stru'

Singular Development of the Nerve Struc-
lures.
1t is a current belief that the fingers
of the blind more practiced in tactual
exploration than the fingers of those
who can see, acquire greater discrimi-
nativeness, especially the fingers of
those blind who have been taught to
read from raised letters Not wish
ing to trust to this current belief l re-
Gently tested two youths, one of fifteen
and the other younger, at the School
for the Blind in Upper Avenue road,
and found the belief to be correct. In
stead of being unable to distinguish be-
tween points of the compass until they
apart, found that both of them could
distinguish between points when only
one-fourteenth of an inch apart, They
had thick and coarse skins, and doubt
less, had this intervening obstacle so pro-
duced been less, the ediscriminative power
would have been greater.
1t afterward occurred to me that
better test would be furnished by those
whose fingers ends are exercised in
tactual perceptions, not occasionally,
as by the blind in reading, but all day
long in pursuit of their occupations.
The facts answered expectation. Two
skilled compositors on whom / expert
mented, were both able to distinguish
between points when they were only
one-seventeenth of an inch apart Thus
we have clear proof that constant exer-
else of the tactual nervous structures
leads to further development-Her

NURSERY HYGIENE.
How to Furnish and Care for the Chill.
dren's Room.

How to Furnish and Care for the Chill
dren's Room.
The room especially set apart for the
children of the family should be the
best aired, the sunniest and the driest
in the house, at the same time it
should be so situated as to be kept at a
temperature as nearly uniform as possi-
BILE. AS general thing it sh ould be on
the south side of the house. Any ex-
cess of sunlight, if such exists, can be
easily controlled by shades.
Since the nursery is, as rule, occu-
pied both night and day, it should be
as large as possible to facilitate a tn or
ough supply of fresh air.
Considerations of air, sunlight and
cleanliness should be paramount and
all questions of decoration should be
entirely subservient To this end,
everything should be simple in con-
struction,
In all but exceptional cases the nurs-
cry is the scene, at some time or other,
of one or more of the diseases incident
to childhood. On this account all
materials that might serve as lurking
place for dust and disease organisms
should be excluded, The furniture
should be plain so as to be easily kept
clean. 1t should also be light, or else
furnished with strong castors, so that
it can be easily moved about. Pictures
on the walls were better omitted.
The nursery floor should have partic-
ular attention. While the ideal floor
may not be always attainable, the ideal
should be approached as nearly as pos
sible, A floor of closely joined hard
wood is the best, since it is most easily
kept free from dust Over this should
be laid rugs or carpets, which should
be frequently taken up and beaten.
Nursery closets too, should be care
fully looked after. They should be al
ways open to inspection, and no accu-
mutation of soiled clothing should be
permitted Open shelves are recon-
nended since, while clean linen and
other necessities are easily kept upon
them, they are less apt to be made the
receptacles of ''tucked-away" neat,
ness, than are shelves inclosed by
doors.
The habitual use of disinfectants
should have no part in the care of the
nursery. The necessity for their use
should be avoided by means of scrupu-
!ous cleanliness. A room in which dis
Lnfectants are needed should be inhab-
tied by no one, least of all by children.
The ventilation of the nursery is an
important matter. The essential thing
to be secured is q frequent change OF
air without draughts along the Hoor.-
