from the Contemporary Review.l
If we were to catch a musical per-
Torrance, even of a first-rate instru-
mentalist, by means of a phonograph.
and then slowly reproduce and analyze
It, we should very likely be astonished
to see how incorrectly he played. And
yet his performance was good enough
for the general impression, and even
the most attentive hearer might not
have been annoyed by it's inaccuracies.
1t is not otherwise with the music we
have in our mind; in it are all the de-
fects, and very likely still more, of its
execution. This sufficiency of even a
slight defective performance can only
be explained by the fact that the single
tones ami chords are not the only eIe-
DleRts of which music consists: there
are also the rhythm, the time, and the
different shades of increasing and de-
creasing force, which count for as much
in the general character of music
piece as the single tones; they are what
I should call the expressive powers of
music. Indeed, in the beginning of
music Historically speaking), they are
even more important than the single
tones
We know from many trustworthy re-
ports of travellers that most savages do
not, as a rule, carefully settle the single
tones Of melody; they tap, as it were
in the dark, change the tones at anv
repetition, sharpen the intervals when
under excitement, f1atten them when
fatigued. and use all sorts of intermedi-
ate third and quarter tones, which are
most difficult to reproduce by the mod
ern musician. This is not due to a diff
ference of system-for they have no
regular system-but to the same inca
pacify of distinctly representing the
tones in their mind which I noticed in
my above mentioned highly cultivated
musical friend. Thus we may say from
a psychological as well as from an eth
biological point of view, (ontogeneticaIiy
and psylogenetically, as the biologist
would say, that not ready-made tones
led men to music, but the other ele-
ments of music compelled men to in
clude tone first indistinct then dis
tincD, as one of them.

pictures carried to the doctor. This is
an excellent way for the surgeons to
keep informed of a growing child.
Even if no serious spinal trouble is
developed from sitting badly, excessive
round shoulders or badly prominent
shoulder blades as result will ruin a
figure or walk for after life.
Troubles that arise from faulty po-
sitions are what the surgeons term
causes are ricketts,, want of nutrition,
inheritance and poverty, that bring
about so much of the deformity in the
world. These can only be remedied,
the other can be averted.
Even older people, those whose backs
are weak and continually dropping,
when they assume sitting position,
can strengthen them marvelously by a
system of gymnastics. The best re-
commended is to lie on a lounge with
the head dropping over the end; in
this position use dumbbells. 1t will be
found to develop the muscles about
the spine and those of the neck. Steels
and other mechanical appliances are
apt to weaken the muscles.
These curvatures are more likely in
school girls than school boys; the
former eat less and the back is never
so strong.
The way to sleep is another anxious
question with the doctors. The meth
cd of the Indian is always the best;
fiat on the back with little or no pill
low.
Nothing is so restfuI as this atti-
tude, as any one will find out BY
spreading a rug on the floor and lying
down this way an hour before dinner.
In no other attitude are the muscles
so completely relaxed.

Between a faulty position in sitting
and standing, and lateral curvature of
the spine, there seems a great gulf
fixed. but those who study the secret
science of a condition say there is only
a small stream and that is bridged
over
AS the twig is bent, so the tree
grows, is claimed to be as true of ply
steal as of vegetable life. That is to
say, the bones of young children are
soft and will take the position in which
they are habitually placed. Therefore
mueh is to be needed as TO the attitudes
children should be made to take at
school in writing or studying or prac-
Using at home on the piano. Reaogniz-
ing the serious effect of carelessness
in this line, physicians have looked
thoughtfully into the matter and de-
vised desks that should remedy the evil
if possible. Orders they give are that
the seat for a child should not be deep
er than the length of the thigh, or
higher than the length of the leg; it's
back ought not to be above the should
ers and should be arched so as to fit
in the hollow Of the back: hard cush-
ion or a false back made of leather
quirement nicely The back of the
chair should slope backward slightly,
forming an angle of 100 to ITO degrees
with the seat, and should serve as a
support to the whole of the spine when
a child leans backwards. The distance
from the top of the seat to the top of
the table should be one-eighth the
height of a girl or one-seventh of a
boy. The edge of the table should be
