C0LORS AND NERVES.
The Varying Effect of Different Hues
Upon the Senses.

81 picked up an old volume of
south sea travels the other day."
remarked a young railroad official
a night or two ago, "and was struck
by one of the customs of the far
away Society islanders, which turn
ed my thoughts upon the subject of
colors and their effect on the human
mind! 1t appears that on the is
lands there is a kind of seaweed or
semimarine growth which, when
dried, burns with a bright cherry
red flame, somewhat like Bengal
fire. The natives of the different
islands of the group collect the
stuff, cure it and keep a supply on
hand. 1t is, however, never burned
except in times of danger, but the
moment that any grave emergency
arises a heap of the hay is set on
fire and every native within sight of
the signal is in duty bound to rush
to the rescue.
"The custom brought home to my
mind the almost universal use of red
light as a danger signal and caused
me to wonder whether there is not
some other reason than mere chance
for that hue having been singled out
as a symbol of physical danger.
Efforts have been made, with con-
siderable success, to show the rela-
ton between the senses of sound
and sight, and it has been pretty
clearly shown that the color gamut
does have a corresponding musical
scale, so why not assign to colors
also a scale of nervous sensation
thus red represents physical fear;
blue, as we all know from the lurid
light Of the moon and the cleo
trio flash, superinduces inexplicable
mental dread; yellow light, [ would
say, arouses a sensation of physical
unrest without any feeling Of dan
ger, while white light arouses only
pleasurable sensations or a mild in
toXication.
"Of course the analysis might be
carried by scientific study to other
colors and combinations in endless
degree, and the man of an inves-
tigating turn of mind might find it
infinitely interesting to chase the
red light as a danger signal back
through history and find when and
how the symbol was first adopted"

The Basso and the KIM.

1t is related of Signor Bagagiolo,
whose big bass voice used to sound
generously at Covent Garden many
years ago, that once when he was
supposed to be representing the
king in Hamlet" he was urged by
an intelligent stage manager to ex-
hibit some signs of terror. He de-
clined on the ground that it would
be undignified in king to be afraid
of anything and continued to COM
port himself with a wooden stolid-
ity which, as his explanation SEEM
ed to show, was intended for a regal
bearing.
On the operate stage there are
not a few vocalists with no more
idea of interpreting character than
was possessed by the good humored
bass, and there is reason to believe
that for this cause a good many
regular visitors of the opera houses
have but a very faint idea of the
plots of many well known works.

Riding a Camel.

DR.. Nachtigal, the celebrated
African explorer, was once the guest
of a rich Hamburg merchant. The
merchants son, young man of a
somewhat sentimental tempera-
ment, said, among other things,
that his dearest wish was to ride
across the desert on the back of a
camel. He thought such a ride
must be very poetic indeed.
@My dear young FRIEND" replied
the explorer, 81 can tell you how
you can get a partial idea Of what
riding a camel on the deserts of
Africa is like. Take an office chair,
screw it up as high as possible and
put it in a wagon without springs
then seat yourself on the stool and
have it driven over rocky and I'M
even ground during the hottest
weather of July or August after you
have not had anything to eat or
drink for twenty-four hours, and
then you will get a faint idea of
how delightfully."- poetic it is to ride
on a camel in the wilds of Africa"

"Then Let IL Stand"

The mate of a certain schooner

than was good for him. On one
occasion, after he had recovered
from an unusually severe attack of
intoxication, he was looking over
the log and found that the captain
had inscribed therein on a certain
date, "Mate drunk" The mate
promptly went to the captain and
asked why such statement had
been written down. cts true,
isn't it?" asked the captain. eyes"
said the mate. "Then let it stand"
said the captain.
A few days after the captain, in
looking over the log, found this in

liberty. otis true, isn't it?" asked
the mate. eyes," said the captain,

SIGNS ON WAGON ROOFS.
One Modern Wrinkle That Came With
the Building of Flats.


"When flats began to multiply"
said man who lives in one and so
naturally takes notice of things as
sociatef with them, "the owners of
delivery wagons and so on began
having signs painted on the roofs of
their wagons to catch the eye of
those who dwelt in homes above the
street level. They painted these
signs first with the name one letter
under the other, like a spine,
straight down the middle of the
wagon top from end to end. Some
times hey painted the name in the
same location, but with the letters
arranged in the ordinary way, this
making a sign that could be easily
read from one side of the street
only. Then they took to painting
the name on the wagon roof in two
places along either side of the top,
near the edge Thus painted, one
or the other, Of course, could easily
be read from either side of the
street.
'In wagon roof lettering the lat
est thing l have seen was on the top
of a moving van, whose entire roof
was covered with lettering, in lines
placed crosswise to the top and be-
ginning at the forward end and run
ming, line under line, clean back to
the rear end, so that the vans ex-
tensive roof as you looked down up
on it was lettered like a great poster,
and, of course, this was not done
idly, for the van is a vehicle that
may stand backed up for an hour or
two in front of a house, and the
poster on its roof is then brought
where it can be easily read by every
body in the air, along that side Of
the street any way."-New York

Perpetual Motion.

AS is generally known, a perpet-
ual motion machine is one to be
moved by a power furnished by the
machine itself and not from any
source outside of it. A mill OF a
clock run by the incessant rise and
fall of the tide is not perpetual mo-
ton; neither is a machine that
runs by the power of terrestrial or
other magnetism or of the wind or
of variations in the weight of the
atmosphere or by electricity coming
from outside of the machine or by
the force of heat coming from the
sun. A wheel that could always of
itself keep more weight at one side
than the other and thus turn so
long as its materials lasted would
be perpetual motion, and such has
been the form of most of the ma
chimes invented for the purpose.

KsndaII's SPAWN Curl
Days Impecunious Employee.

The late Augustin DAILY had in his
employment a man who always ad-
dressed him a note periodically asking
for an advance of money. This note
was invariably answered by a most
abusive letter, in almost insulting terms
and threatening instant discharge If
the offense was ever repeated-and in
closing a check for the money!
At regular intervals Of about three
months the man invariably made the
same request, with the same results,
always, however, getting check in
closed. And thus it continued until

Lanauaaes and Dialects.

The least learned are aware that
there are many languages in the
world, but the actual number is
probably beyond the dreams of the
ordinary people. The geographer
Balbi enumerated $50 which are en-
titled to be considered as distinct
languages and 5000 which may be
regarded as dialects. Another mod
ern writer .on this subject reckons
up 1904 languages and dialects ex-
listing and which have existed.

Taus on Their Clothes,

In southern Italy one of the pc
culiar customs of the peasants is the
wearing of price marks on new suits
of clothes, whereas in other coun-
tries the dealers ticket and tag are
removed the moment a suit is
bought; in the sunny toe and heel
of the European 'Fboot" they are
fastened on the tighter and worn
until they fall off. The object of
this, presumably, is to show neigh
bors that you have new clothes,
bought on such day and costing SO
much at So-and-so's.

The Dou In History.

In all Jewish history there is not
a single allusion to hunting with
dogs, though mention is frequently
found of nets and snares. The
Hindoos likewise consider the ami
NAL unclean and submit to various
publications if they accidentally
come into contact with one, believ-
ing that every dog is animated by
wicked and malignant spirit con-
demned to do penance in that form
for crimes committed in a previous
state of existence. Even in Egypt
dogs now are as much avoided as
they were once venerated. How
ever, in Greece and Rome the beast
was highly estimated. Alexander
the Great built city in honor of 3
dog.

The Foot of a Ely.

If the foot of a fly is put under
the glass of a good microscope, it
may be seen how simple is the con-
trivance that seems able to defy the
laws of gravitation. The foot is
made up of two pads, covered with
fine short hairs, with pair of curv-
ed hooks above them. Behind each
pad is tiny bag filled with clear
liquid gum, the hairs also being
hollow and filled with the same
sticky fluid. This gum is what en-
ables the fly to walk up wallis and
panes of glass and across the cell
