A Chicago physician has provided for
himself and family noise proof house
as protection against the street dins,
which persist despite the recently an
nouneed intention to enforce the anti
noise ordinance. The doctor problem

says, by stulfing all the cracks about
the doors and windows with strips of
rubber, perforated with zigzag holes.
Through this the air is admitted, while
the noise. 1t is said, IS softened or
completely deadened, the sound waves
dying out in repeated reflections in
the crooked passages.

NJ. Monnier, the well known French
Asiatic traveller, youches for the truth
Of the following story Of how his
friend, Hop Sing, a Travelled oriental
and man of means and refinement, was
on one occasion sorely yictimized. Hop
Sing lived in the street Of the roasted
corn, as unsavory and as Ill paved a
street as any In all Peking. The local
mandarin was an intimate friend OF
his, and Hop Sing ayailed himself Of
this friendship to press the mandarin
to have the street repayed. Certainly.
At once. The men would be at work
on 1t before Hop Sing had returned
home. A week passed, then another
visit, and 80 on, until. In despair. Hop
Sing determined to have the street re-
paired at his own expense. The work
was satisfactorily completed.
The surprise Of Hop Sing was only
equaled by his Indignation when, on
awaking one morning. he found gang
Of coolies upheaving the newly tagged
street. His surprise grew when he
heard from the mandarin's own lips
that the men were there at his orders.
"You see. my dear friend" said the
mandarin, 81 am expecting the head
inspector round here In a few days.
Now, II he were to see the beautiful
pavement you have laid down in your
street he would come to the conclusion
that there was money about, and he
would assuredly bleed every vein in
my body. This would mean my ruin.
Don't you see why your pavement
really must come upf 1t cost me one
fortune to secure my post. I don't
want to spend another in keeping It."
