Loss of the Musical Faculty.

"Amusia, or loss of the musical fac
ulty, has been reviewed by Professor
Edgren of Stockh ohm. The disease
proves to be strictly analogous to
aphasia, the loss of speech, which may
or may not accompany it. Two general
forms are recognized-the sensory form,
where tones cannot be appreciated by
the ear or notes read by the eye, and
the motor form, in which the patient
cannot sing, play or write notes. Bal
let places the expression of music be-
tween the emotional and the artificial
or verbal language Music is less COM
plicated and earlier appreciated than
speech. Many children sing before they
speak, and Reyer has told of child of
9 months who could repeat the notes
exactly as played on the piano. while

A SONG OF FATHERLAND.

I'VE wandered east. I've wandered west,
In gypsy wise random roamer.
OF men and maids I've known the best,
Like the far travelled king in Homer.
But, oh, for the land that bore mel
Oh, for the stout old land
OF breezy Ben and winding glen
And roaring food and sounding strand.
I've stood where stands in pillared pride
The shrine of Jove's spear shaking daughteH
And hrmbled Persia stained the tide
Of free Greek seas with heaps of slaughter.
I've stood upon the rocky crest
Where Jove's proud eagle spreads his pinioE
Where looked the god far east, far west,
And all he saw was RoIne's dominion.
I've seen the domes Of Moscow far,
In green and golden glory cleaning,
And stood where sleeps the mighty czar,
By Neva's food so grandly streaming.
I've stood on many famous spot
Where blood of heroes flowed like rivers,
Where Deutschland rose at Gravelotte,
And dashed the strength of Gaul to shiverA
I've fed my eyes by land and sea,
With sights of grandeur streaming DER me
But still my heart remains with thee,
Dear Scottish land, that stoutly bore me.
Oh, for the land that bore mel
Oh, for the stout old land,
With mighty Ben and winding glen,
Stout Scottish land, my own dear landl

Phosphorescent Light.

Some experiments have been made in
France to determine the specific action
of considerable lowering of tempera-
ture upon the brilliancy of certain
bodies which shine in the dark after
having been exposed to sunlight. Tubes
of glass filled with the powdered sui
phides Of calcium, barium, strontium,
ETC., all substances possessing the prop
erty of phosphorescence in a high degree,
were exposed to the solar rays and after
ward proved to be luminous in the dark,
this being done in such way as to fix
upon the memory the mean value of the
progressive diminution of the emitted
light, and the time also was noted dur
ing which the light was strong, less
strong and weak respectively. The tubes
were next placed in bright sunlight for
one minute and then suddenly intro
duced into double walled glass cylin-
der, the interspace of which was filled
with nitrous oxide at 140 degrees c. In
about five or six minutes the tempera-
ture of the tubes was some 100 degrees.
They were then withdrawn, and when
observed in a perfectly dark chamber no
luminosity whatever was perceptible.
As the tubes recovered their normal tenn
perature, however, the phosphorescence
returned without the exciting agency
of the suns rays or of diffused light
These results were proved to be general
for all phosphorescens substances en-
ployed. The experiments showed, too,

PRACTICAL LOGIC.

To reason from cause to effect is very
good logic in its way, but to practice on
physical conditions in seeking the cause
first, is a very slow process indeed. All
ailments seem to give an expression in
pain, and especially in rheumatism where
it takes hosd deeply. This is an effect
whatever the cause may be, and pain would
become intolerable if one waited to find
out the cause. Hence sufferers are bent on
curing the pain promptly, and for this
reason know, or soon find out that st.
Jacobs Oil is surely the best remedy. Peo-
pie seldom have reason to hunt further, for
once this allment is cured by it, it stays
cured, and thus puts an end to argument
and pain at once.
