HEALTH IN OCCUPATION.
SOsne Invalids Are II ratO 10 Health
BY Following u Particular
Calling.

While the health of workingmen is
no doubt undermined by their occupa-
tions, such, for instance, as match
making and the various trades in which
lead is used. there are other trades that
tend to prolong life. 1t has often been
remarked that the men who lay the
asphalt in the streets seldom have a
days illness, and those employed in
electric light works and places where
large quantities of electricity are gen.
xated enjoy quite an extraordinary
amount of vitality. A visit to the gas
works. too, is quite frequently pre-
scribed by doctors for chest ailments.
The workers in salt mines. also. enjoy
an absolute immunity from rhenma-
tism.
Perhaps the healthiest occupation is
that at the petroleum tanks that abound
in Chicago. The men employed in these
never suffer from sore throats, diph-
liberia, quinsy o. kidney ailments. The
marvellous curative effects of the Pc
troleum fumes is such that it is now
quite common thing for sufferers
from throat affections to visit the pc
troleum tanks, much as people used to
drink the waters at Bath.
4 celebrated and wealthy operatic
tenor who had developed throat weak
ness llas for several months past been
working as an ordinary employe, but
gratis. in one Of the petroleum ware
houses, deriving from the inhaling Of
the fumes a cure that scores of physi-
clans and several ocean voyages failed
in establixhing.-Chicago Chronicle.

OUR PECULIAR rwANG
American LaPyagslogical society
StaAylaG Over Oar National
Nasal Habit.

Just why Americans have q peculiar
nasl twang has never been satisfactor-
lily explained, nor has the twenty-firSt
annual congress of the American Lar
yngological society, which has just
been concluded, thrown much light ON
the subject. The opinions expressed
by the .rious throat specialists upon
the subject were SO diverse and sc:en-
tific that the iayman il left but little
the wiser.
One point, how :yer. received univer-
sal acceptance, and that was that the
climate was net the cause. or, at any
rate, not the sole cause, of the twang
that is invariably described with the
term Yankee" The nasal twang is
not limited to the New England states,
but has spread all over the continent,
and as the climate varies almost to ex-
tremes throughout the country. it was
scarcely fair to ascribe to it all the
changes that take place in the larynx
and vocel cords. and which produce the
unpleasant twang.
DIR. Shedson. makuen of Philadelphia,
told the. association that he attributed
the high tension in the voice to the high
tension of American life. When per-
son is excited or hurried the voice al
ways becomes high pitched. and it does
not take long before the habit is
formed and the voice assumes a nasal
twang.
To show that II was not a question
of race that would account for the
twang of the American voice, like the
cultural voice of the Dutch or the pecul-
lar type of nasal voice of the French.
it was pointed out that our English
cousins had voices Of an agreeably low
pitch. Comparatively few Englishmen
suffer from nasal catarrh or affection
of the larynx, while it is the exception
to find an American who is unaffected
by some similar affection. II might
very well be the case that the nasal
twang is the cause of the larynx being
affected instead of what is generally
believed-the ! nasal twang being
caused by the nasal catarrh.
Still another specialist, DIR. Thomas
Hubbard, of Toledo, advanced the the
ory that high pitched voices were
caused by the .endeavors of people to
make themselves heard in noisy cities.
In oSder to make ones voice heard above
the din and hubbub of noisy town
or city Il was necessary T., use ones
top notes. This forced high pitch of
the voice il soon initiated unconscious
". and an unpleasant voice is acquired.
An enforced domicile among people
speaking with q nasal twang soon
leads one to acquire the habit. An
Englishman visiting this country in
the space of few weeks acquires a
high pitched voice. A European trip
taken by an American will often have
the effect of causing his voice to
change from high pitched to a low
pitched one, and the change will be
permanent so long as he refrains from
mixing with people who speak with .
pronounced nasal twang.. Unconscious
imitativeness spreads from city to vii
lage, and some of the most pronounced
nasal voices are heard in country vii
lages.-Chicago Times-Herald.

II was out at the race track one day
last winter" said merchant in New

l had not seen for some years and who
had become totally blind. He told me.
that he had recognized my voice, and
while we stood there talking the bell
rang from the track.

claimed, excitedly. Come! Let us get
into the grand stand as quick as we
cant

not help expressing surprise at his ca
gerness.
"'Oh, that's ali right he replied, abb
stractedly, Il bet I'll get nearly as
much out Of it al you do and after
watching him through the next race l
become convinced that he was telling
the truth. To begin with, he fired a
volley of short. sharp questions at The
boy, and in that way obtained good
general idea of the situation. Then he
leaned forward like a man about to
spring. / never saw such an attitude of
fierce and concentrated attention. To
say that he seemed to be listening does
no begin to express it. He seemed to
be literally absorbing everything that
was going on around him. His chin

and could see the big veins in his neck
fhrobbing like an engine. 1t was an
uncanny spectacle. ! couldn't get rid
Of the feeling that he was exercising
some unnatural. superhuman faculty.
After the. race was run he dropped
back, relaxed and sat there listless and
inert until the next tap of the bell.
Later. when we were in the street
car, l tried to learn something of his
experience. He smiled good-naturedly,
but found difficulty in making me un-
derstand. 4 get q lot of pleasure out
of the races he said. and can follow
some OF them almost as well as il had
my sight. 1 can't tell exactly how it il
dcne. suppose my brain has become
trained to catch hundreds of little cues

the ordinations of the crowd, the
cheers and laughs end groans and
curses, the chance remarks of passers:
yes, even the clatter Of the feet and the
way folks breathe-everything means
something to me, and altogether il
builds up picture in my mind. 1 feel

NO MUSIC IN THE AIR.
Lights of Literature to Whom Musio
Was "Merc Impcrtinent
Noise"

Many distinguished men have bees
totally deficient in the sense of music.
In the world of literature, where it
might have been expected that an APP
probation of music would coexist with
a sense of rhythm in language, this de-
ficiency is especially noticeable. Many
literary men have been unmusical.
Swift cared nothing for music. DR..
johnson was altogether insensible to
it. At an evening party, on hearing it
said, in praise of musical perform
ance, that it was in any case difficult.
the great man blurted out: "Sir, l
wish It had been impossible"
Sir Walter Scott, while he had mar
velous ear for verse and rhythm. had nc
ear for music. In his autobiography
he tells us that it was only after long
practice that he acquired the power of
even distinguishing melodies In the
Life of John Sterling" Carlyle says
that .all music was mere impertinent
noise to him. and the same might
probably be said of the sage of Chelsea
himself. saS e
DIR. Arnold of Rugby, the greatest
schoolmaster of the nineteenth CEN
tury, is another instance of man of
rare ability in whom the musical fac
ulty did not exist. II simply cannot
conceive" he writes, with reference to
music. what to others is keen source
of pleasure; there is no link by which
mvmind can attach it to itself: l can.
no more remedy st than some other
men could enter into the deep delight
with which I look at wood anemones
or wood sorrel." ''Wild flowers" he
used to say. "are my music"
The writings of Dean Stanley are re
markable for the sustained rhythm of
the sentences. yet, in the sense of mu-
sic. he was as deficient as in the sense
of smell. Archbishop TAFT. the greatest
archbishop of Canterbury. since the
latitudinarian Tillotson. was. like his
friend Stanley. totally deficient ip any

whether vocal or instrumental. II was.

to himself and his friends when he
was invited by the prince of Wales to
be a speaker at the great meeting in
st. James palace to inaugurate the
Royal College of Music. The speech.
however. in which he classed himself
with certain unfortunate people who
are deaf to music" is said to have been
marked success. Notwithstanding
that on entering the hall he whispered
to a friend that he never i'm his life felt

MOSQUITO LIVES TWO MONTHS
Close St1dy Of the Little
Pest.

DR.. T. L. Bancroft. of Burpengary.
writes an interesting letter to the Aus
tralasian Medical Gazette on the life
history of the house mosquito, an in
sect which recent work upon malarian
infection has elevated into. scientific
importance. This mosquito, it is
thought, has been introduced into Aus
tralia from Europe. Tradition says
that mosquito lives day or two; that
it feeds only once, afterward retiring
to some quiet spot. where the ova are
matured, the eggs laid in water, after
which it dies, and that the male mosqui-
to does not feed, and that it is rare that
il lives seven days after the meal OF
blood. The Investigations of DIR. Ban
croft into filarial mstamorphosis tai
lied exactly with those of DR.. Man
SON in respect to the metamorphosis.
except in one important item. Dr. Ban
croft had never seen the actively NOV.
ing filaria. or thread-worms, the las.
stage of the metamorphosis, but this he
attributes to the fact that mosquitoes
want to be fed, and that his died from
starvation about the sixth day and be-
fore the filariae had developed. In. con-
finement it il necessary to feed mos
quitoes. Various methods and foods
were tried by DR.. Bancroft with little
success, until ripe bananas were
given. which proved to be suitable; II
was noticed that male and female mos
quitoes sucked the juice of the banana
almost every day. 1t was also found
that mosquitoes would live in glass YES
sells up to two months: the life Of q
mosquito is, therefore. not one of two
days, but a month at least, and fire.
quently two months.
The embryo ilariae. DR.. Bancroft
says, when it is taken into the mosqui-
to's stomach, measures 100 inch in
length by ia, 600 inch IN breadth; a tho
17th day il measures lis inch by Il, 900
inch, and is not killed when put into
water. He believes that water IL the
medium by which the young filariae are
transformed to the human host, and he
suggests that experiments with a par
