MEASURING SOUND.
The Microscope Employed In This Deli
cate Operation.


It certainly is an odd statement to
say that the microscope is better than
the ear for measuring some sounds; but
it is true. In determining the pitch of
very high notes Mr.. Z. Melde has
found that the ear cannot be depended
on, and he has therefore turned to the
microscope for aid.
Sound is phenomenon of vibration,
and the pitch Of any musical note can
be determined if the sound wave cor
responding to it is in any manner rem
dered measure BILE.
Mr.. Medic has solved the problem in
this way: He covers plate with thin
layer composed of a mixture of olive
oil and stearine, the surface of which
is slightly ridged by rubbing it deli
cately with the finger. To high
pitched tuning fork short hair is at
tached, and a similar hair is fastened
to another vibrating body, such as
rod, whose pitch is known. The ends
of these hairs trail across the prepared
plate, as it is passed rapidly over them,
and thus mark upon it's surface
double series of wave lines CORE
spending to the periods of vibration of
the fork and the rod. The microscope
is then called into action in order to
compare the length and depth of the
waves, and thus determine the musical
pitch of the vibrating fork, with an ac-
curacy not attainable by the ear alone

Dreams and Sound Sleep.

When a student asked the great Prof.
Marine if dreams were "a sign of any
thing" he replied: eyes, sign that
the dreamer was only about half
asleep, when some vague ideas fitted
through his brain" An opinion ex-
actly contrary to the above was once
expressed by DR.. Tanner, the faster
When asked if he had not dreamed of
feasts during his long fast he replied:
1.-THE fact is, I did not dream at all,
simply because | had no sound sleep
during the ordeal. / was sorry for
that, because I had hoped to make
psychological study of myself.
My sleep was SO disturbed and broken
by those constantly around me that
had no opportunity for dreams" Whose
theory respecting the dream condition
is correct, Marne's or Tanners?
Perhaps some of our readers would
like to know in what respect Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy is better than any
other We will tell you. When this
remedy is taken as soon as a cold has
been contracted, and before it has be-
come settled in the system, it will coun-
teract the effect of the cold and gently
lessen its severity, if not effectually cure
the cold in two days time, and it is the
only remedy that will do this. 1t acts in
perfect harmony with nature and aids
nature in relieving the lungs, opening
the secretions, liquefying the mucus and
causing its expulsion from the air cells
of the lungs and restoring the system to
a strong and healthy condition. No

Curlos About Respiration.

In each respiration an adult of the
human species inhales one pint Of air.
A healthy man will respire 16 to 90
times per minute, or, say, 20, 900 times
q day; a child, 25 to 80 times per min
ute. While standing, the adult average
respiration is 22 times per minute; ly-
ing down, 18 times. The superficial
area of the lungs-that is, Of their
alveolar pace-averages 900 square
yards. The amount of air respired each
day is about 10000 quarts.
The amount Of oxygen absorbed in
the same length Of time is 500 liters, or
about 744 grams. The amount of. car
bonic acid expired in "a hours Is esti-
mated at 511.5 grams. Two-thirds Of
the oxygen absorbed in "a hours is tax.
en- in during the ~ hours from p.
m. to 9 a. IN. three-fifths of the total
being thrown off during the day. While
this is going on the pulmonary surface
is throwing off $50 grams of water in
the shape of yapor. The heart sends
500 quarts of blood through the lungs
every hour, or about D., 900 quarts daily.
The duration of inspiration is five-
twelfths, of expiration seven-twelfths,
of the whole respiratory act. -''''
