IeaCI..n. I5ear Iutes.

In beginning to teach deaf muteS the
art of speech they are first placed be
fore a mirror and taught to form with
their lips the different vowel sounds used
in speaking. But this is not all. Sounds
are produced not only by the lips, but by
the larynx, the vibration Of which IS the
strongest in the region known as the
Adams apple" The pupil places his fin
ger upon his masters throat while that
vibration is going on, and then, touching
his own, tries TO initiate 1t. Then, when
he Is in possession Of these elements Of
speech, he has only to combine them in
order to produce syllablcs, words and
phrases. The lips Of deaf mutes are al
ways far less supple thar those OF persons
normally developed and consequently re
quire systematic exercise. The eyes do not
need to be taught kcenness, as they arc al
ways on the watch TO supply information
usually furnished by hearing, but they are
taught to attain great power Of lxedness,
so that the attention may be concentrated
without diversion upon the lips Of any
person spcaking-Chicago Tribune.

American War Methods,

1t is worth recalling that America has
three times had the honor of rcvolutiOniz-
ing the art Of war. To American armies
was due the introduction of the scout, or
open order system of fighting, with all the
c~oncomitants of skirmishers, rifle pits,
etc. Foreign nations were slow to adopt
it, but it came at last and is now univer-
sal. America, too, was the first to intro
duce the extensive use of the rifle and OF
sights on naval guns. Today the rifle is
the universal arm of the infantry, and a
cannon without sights or means for accu-
rate laying is as useless as one without
powder.
The third revolution was the intrOduc-
ton of the monitor, and here the honor
belongs to the individual rather than tC
the nation. Despite all that may have
been said to the contrary, Captain Erics-
sons traditional "cheesebOx on a raft"
was an entirely unique construction. The
idea had never been previously carried
into practice and certainly had never been
put into successful form. The work OF
the monitor produced a revolution in n a
val ideas, Of which the full extent has thus
far been only i~nadequately realized Gas

Her Accurate Guess.

Il witnessed an event on a street cai

''that amused me. If | had read OF 1t
in q newspaper, I would nave said it was
a made up story, but in this case l know
it to be a fact. A small sized woman OF

Of course she did not get any transfer
ticket, although she continued to demand
one for several minutes. Then she started
off on another tack. The car was neal

VEGETABLE AND ANIMAL HEAT.
Fluctuations In the Temperature of La"hs
Midday and Midnight Standards.

4 bar of iron submerged in boiling wa
fer will h heated 10 about Pig degrees. ii
both iron and water are placed wherc theg
oop cool each will assume the temperature
Of the surrounding air, whether 1t be ItO
5agraas above or 20 degrees below zero In
This way the iron and water will give
nroof of their inanimatC, inorganic nature.
I'm the other hand, one of the principal
characteristics Of all living things, from
masses TO man, is that they maintain
more or less constantly, a standard tenn
Derature of their own. r1-ardless OF the
surrounding changes. This standard varies
remarkably in different .. atCr2s, but in
many indisiduaIs any ut departure
from their standard, up or down, brings
death. Beginning with lowly creatures,
We find that among the plants the con-
tanned heat usually averages from one
quarter to one-half degree above that OF
their surroundings. In some plants, nota-
bly the celia lily, Indian turnip and their
kind. the vegetable heat arises as high as
"a degrees above the surrounding air when
they are in bloom. In the animal king
dom we find the bodily temperature from
q decree. or even less, above zero up to
about 115 degrees in birds. Animals are
therefore divided into warm blooded"
and .tcold bloOded." The former includes
man. all mammals and birds; the latter,
fishes. reptiles, toads and frogs, tortolses
and all the great classes Of insects, spl-
ders, mites and the lesser creeping
things"
The warm blooded animals maintain a
standard temperature; the cold blooded,
feeling cold to our touch, are usually some
what, not far, above the temperature OF
their surroundings. Thus there is a regu-
lar progression up through plants, insects,
fishes and reptiles, the higher mammals
and man, to birds. Between cold bloOded
creatures and man there appears a great
gulf, but in reality the alternating ami
mails make excellent connecting links.
In man, whose temperature should not
be far from 90 degrees, there are several
sorts of variations in temperature. AS the
cooling apparatus Of the body is mainly
located in the skin, the outer temperature
of the body is the lowest. a Thermometer
held In the and Of a healthy person regis
tiers 9513 degrees, and at the tongue SO de-
grees, and in the stomach 100 degrees or
over. There is also a periodic change, ami
NAL heat undergoing a regular ebb and
flow. At midday the standar will be
found at about 994 degrees, at midnight
about 99k degrees.-Boston Globe.
