Mind and Music.

/ suppose the relation between mind and
music is pretty generally admitted and
recognized On the susceptible person the
influence of music is often most marked
in producing a pleasant frame of nina, in
calming irritation and even in inducing
sleep. Tho man "that hath no music in
himsclf'' is of course exempt from such
effects and results. but it would indeed be
a strange and anomalous thing if one of
tho Oldest of the arts should have exhibited
no direct relations to the mental phases of
individuals and nations alike. On the
body and working through the mind, of
course, or rather through the nervous sys-
TEN, 1 should say, the influence of music
has been but imperfectly studied.
My readers will probably remember how
Canon Hartford undertook of late days to
induce repose in hospital patients by the
playing of soft music His efforts in many
cases were crowned with success and
suppose we may now rank music among
those aids in mental therapeutics the ac-
ton of which deserves to be more promi-
nently studied than has hitherto been pos

A young man was standing beside some
luggage waiting for train when porter
came up to him and said.
"Sir, that luggage is overweight"

"Well, think it is " answered the por-

During the conversation a crowd had
collected round them, and another porter
came up and asked what was the matter
The man stammercd out:
"Fhrst he says it is overweight, then
he-says he th-thinks it is overweight
and ththen he says he will weigh it, "
The porters then took hold of the lug

4 PHILOSOPHERS ATTIc.


One Of the queerest places in New
York can be found in what looks, from
the street, to be funny little gable
rooted house perched jauntily on one
corner of the roof Of the Windermere,
/ on Fifty seventh street. 1t is a conserva-
tory and observatory in one, a miniature
roof garden, the den Of an attic philos-
opher, Henry s. Goodale, whose some
what celebrated daughters, Elaine and
Dora, evidently got from him their
poetic strain.
The attic is reached by a steep nau-
teal flight of steps leading up through
a small square hatchway straight into a
wonderful greenery Of bloom, a snug
gerry Of corsfort, likewise a hennery,
consisting of one fine brown Leghorn
fowl and a single fluffy, yellow chick,
and a dovecot, where there are softly
whirring wings. It is a charming bit of
Arcadia, high above the ceaseless roar
and heartbeat Of a great city, which
under its potent spell seems unreal and
evanescent, like the undulating, elliptic
al rings of smoke that float past the
sattic" windows The attic is all win
dows, except the floor, roof and the sim
pie matched board dado. The little room
is a symphony in green; the floor is car
peted with dull green denim; the gabled
roof is covered with burlaps Of the same
hue; a green wicker couch is cushioned
in green yachting cloth; a broad green
and white striped awning shades the
sunny sides Of the little house; all the
carelessly strewn cushions, though Of
varying designs and materials, are Of
the same general hue, and green figured
denim draperies ON slender brass rods
hang ready to exclude thewhole outside
world if it is desired.
But it is the window gardens that
give the greatest charm to the place.
Long, deep boxes of country earth and
loan give sustenance to thick, tangled
clumps Of spicy pinks, old fashioned
rose bushes and honeysuckle vines,
clambering over wire network trellises,
which metaphorically kill two birds
with one stone by literally preserving
the birds-that is, the hen and her
chick-from disaster and unfolding the
lacy green drapery of the vines.

she keeps vigilant and determined eye
out for opportunities to maraud outside
her own domain, which is quite spacious
enough to keep her hale and hearty,
apparently contented with her lot and
graciously disposed in the matter of
eggs. Dame Attica Hennica-which is
the hens classical name-evidently be-
longs to a fine old Latin race of fowls,
and her neighbors, the doves, are on the
