BY "absolute zero" is meant the low
EST temperature compatible with heat
that point of temperature. in fact, ut
which body would be wholly deprlv-
ed of heat and at which the particles
whose motion constitutes heat would
be at rest. This temperature is sup
posed to be about 2T4 degrees c.. or 4G1
degrees f.
The term cheat" is here used In Its
scientific sense, for as men use the
word in everyday language its signifi-
canoe depends on the temperature of
the human body. Men call warm"
everything with temperature higher
thnn their own and cold" all those
objects which have less heat than they.
In reality, however, the coolest body
known to man is far from being utter
! ly without heat. Ice, for example, has
heat, only in degree 80 much below
mans temperature that ono can scarce
ly imagine 1t to be anything but "cold,"
q term which actually implies COM
paratlvcly low degree of heat.
Accordingly the zero of thermometers
Is only a conventional point marking q
certain degree of heat There seems to
be point, however, where heat ceases
absolutely, and this point 1t Is which is

The Noise Habit.

The New Yorker contracts in time
what may be called tho noise habit
Noise with him becomes dissipation.
His nervous system. demands 1t. This
Is illustrated by the sensations he ex-
periences when he goes into the woods
or mountains after u continuous stay
in the city for many months. His first
feeling Is one Of loneliness; something
seems to have suddenly gone out Of his
life. Every tree seems to say, "Why
have you been so hot and noisy, my lit
tie sir?" His sensations are somewhat
akin to those Of drunkard who has
been under alcoholic stimulation for a
long time and suddenly has his drink
taken from him. His whole nervous
system feels the lack Of the irritation
and stimulation Of the city noise, to
which 1t has become accustomed. The
stiffness actually appals and depresses
him.
The streets of New York are deep,
narrow channels, and they are growing
constantly deeper as the buildings In
crease in height. These large reflect
| ing surfaces on three sides Of hin
make the condition of the man In the
street like that of the workman who
suffers from reflected noise while III
hammers rivets on the inside of Doll

Some time ago the keeper OF n board

During that period her house became
well known in tho city and among the
women in her own businGS. She new.

til She set out to find place to live in
herself.
She applied first at tho house kept by
q woman nearly us well known rs her

room for her. 1t was not until she had
been through the same experience sew
eral times TINT she came to understand
that she was not wanted in the estab-
lishments of her former rivals. Her
reputation for keeping fine house was
too much for the other women, who
did not want to submit to the scrutiny
of n former boarding house keeper who
had made a reputation and q fortune.ir
the business.
She learned, after going to o hote
where her record could not be used
against her, that she was not the onl!

Women Cannot Doss Each Other.
The old theory that woman is mans
helper seems incorrigibly well founded,
says q. S. Martin In McClure's Maya
zine. If the situation isn't satisfactory
to her, there is no help for 1t, for tho
conditions 1t came out of seem to be
eternal. Women may vote. They will
be none the less mans helpers IL they
do. They never will band together to
put man down and teach him his place.
They will push him ahead If they can.
they will pull him along when they
must, they will influence him enor-
mously, as they always have done. but
they will never conspire together on
any very great scale to make him play
second fiddle. Some one has got to be
master. Women in general will never
agree to have women bosses so long as
there are competent men for that use.

butchers never die of consumption"
The big man with his sleeves rolled up,
welding the cleaver at the block, said
this as lie threw beefsteak on the
scale.
1t sounded more like q trade superstl-
ton than fact, but SO far as diligent
inquiry has been able to discover 1t Is
true. although not generally known
outside OF the meat clopping craft.
Butchers are no longer lived than
men in other walks of life They are
subject to all tho other ills that human
flesh is heir to. but consumption they
do not have. So far as IL reporter was
able to learn not Il single case Is on
record of n butcher in this city being
afflicted with the incurablc wasting of
the lungs which claims It's hundreds Of
thousands Of victims annually.
The fact is well known among butch
crs and has been often tho subject of
their comment. although none Of them
can give a reason for It.
NO" said man who has swung
sides and rounds In Washington mar
ket for tho last 20 years; II have had
rheumatism and typhoid fever and lots
Of other things, but nothing has ever
been out Of gear with my lungs. and
tho same is true Of every other butcher
in this town. l know nearly all of
them. and never heard Of one Of them
having consumption. They don't drink
blood or take any especially good care
Of themselves either. don't know
why 1t should be so unless it's because
the continual inhaling of an atmos-
phere of fresh meat is strengthening.
II have often thought when hearing
Of consumptives going to Colorado and
Egypt that know Of climate nearer
home that would do tho business just
as well. If they would stay in this stall
for awhile and swing meat, they would
get well quito rs quickly rs they would
