WEDNESDAY, APRIL Is. 1902:
THE SOUND OF A PIANO.
Seeming Defects That May he OTTER
Due to Exterior Causes.

Seeming Defects That May he often
Due to Exterior Causes.
"a piano" said dealer, twill some
times develop or seem to develop O
flaw in some one note, which comes to
have rattle or jingle or unpleasant
burr to it, but this Earring sound which
seems to come from the piano may in
reality come from some source quite
outside of it.
ANY given note when struck pro-
duces certain number of vibrations to
the second. There may be In the room
some object that is In tone sympathy
with some particular note, and that
will be set In motion by it when that
note Is sounded.
"The owner of q fine piano sent to us
one day to say that there was some
thing wrong about certain note of
the instrument. so that that note had
an unpleasant sound when struck
When heard the note sounded, knew
at once THAI the dlsagreeable rough
ness or buzz about 1t was due not to
any defect in the piano, but to some
thing somewhere about in the room
and, asking the lady to strike that note
occasionally, walked around the room
to see If could locate it.
Passing across the middle of the
room as that note was struck, the
cause of the jarring accompaniment of
Ii was discovered to come from the VI
bration of one Of the glass globes on
the chandelier overhead.
"The owner Of the piano was almost
incredulous as TO this, the sound had
seemed SO plainly to come from the
piano itself. But when at my request
she stood under the chandelier and /
struck the note she was readily con-
WINGED.
81 made that globe immovable and
then struck the note on the plano. The
answer was clear and sweet and true.
so. you see. the sound of the plano
may for one thing depend much upon
its surroundings, and what may seem
to be defect In piano may be In re.
atty attributable to something quite
apart from the piano Itself
And thus 1t might easily be that |
some noble instrument that had SEEM
ed to be declining or to be developing
faults owed Its apparent change to a
change of environment or to some spe-
cific outside cause and was in reality
as good rs ever as would happily be
discovered whenever the instrument
was again brought under favorable
conditions. Chicago Inter Ocean.

In Winchester, England, 1t Is quite
common thing to see men fishing
through the street gratings Under the
High street there flow several streams
which ultimately discharge into the
river Itchen, noted trout stream.
These streams receive the storm and
surface water from the street by means
OF the ordinary street grating. The line
Is dropped through and fastened to the
end of stick small enough to go
through the crate. When the fish Is
hooked. the Hue and stick are dropped
through the grating. and the fisherman
PUSHES to the point where the stream
emerges from under the street and is
there able to recover his line and land
his fish.

ANTiSEPTlCS.
They Do Not Destroy, 1t Il Said, but
Only Arrest Germ Life.

They Do Not Destroy, 1t Il Said, but
Only Arrest Germ Life.
The Edinburgh Scotsman begs leave
to correct the erroneous belief that i'm
plies that antiseptics can prevent de-
cay. Decay may be arrested without
killing the microbe which would pro-
duce 1t. A few drops of solution Of
carbolic acid added to flour paste will
keep 1t sweet for a certain time, not
because the germs in the paste are de-
stroyed. but because these germs are
hindered for the time being in their
growth and multiplication and because
the paste is rendered temporarily an
unsuitable soil for the growth OF what
ever microbes may fall from the air In
to it.
When the effect of the acid has worn
off and disappeared, we see the paste
going to the bad as rapidly as IL 1t had
not been treated antiseptically at all.
Molds will grow in 1t, and 1t will decay
In the fashion familiar to everybody.
1t is In this way cold may act as an
antiseptic when it is used to preserve
meat and fish. There Is no destruction,
but only arrest of germ life. II we wish
to kill microbes, therefore, we not only
have TO use a dislnfectant. but We must
employ 1t In proper proportions and see
that 1t thoroughly attacks the germs
we wish TO destroy. 1t Is for this rea
son that all attempts to kill germs
which the air may contain are worse
than useless We cannot "dislnfect" the
mir. IL we could do so, we should re-
quire TO saturate the air with our germ
icide to such an extent that to breathe
1t would Kill US.
We get an excellent example of this
fallacy OF "dislnfecting air" when we
reflect that in using burning sulphur to
purify a room after fever case we
have to use 1t in such q way and in
such proportion that 1t is impossible for
any person to remain in the room at
all.

No Wonder This Child's Brain Is All

The half dozen blocks about Dupont
circle include the homes Of as many
scientists of national reputation. These
gentlemen Of course know each other
and meet frequently. Not long ago one
Of their neighbors began to wonder
whether snch intimate intercourse
among scientists was q good thing,
his cogitation having had its rise In the
following incident:
His little daughter has just reached
the age when she asks 200 questions a
day. About a month ago her father
spoke Of some author as lacking the
proper temperament" for writing ION
history. That word Temperament"
apparently took root In the youngsters
mind. What was temperament? She
asked that question twice an hour for
an entire week.
Finally her father gave her a note to
Professor - and sent her off to find
out. That scientist answered the que
ry as follows: Temperament is an IN
dividual tendency to the rise of O GER
tain mental state" Father and daugh-
ter wrestled with that little while and
then applied to a second member of
the scientific group for help. No. 2
called temperament IAN ensemble of
physical and mental traits arising from
Fundamental constitutional differences
In individuals" This put the little
girls father completely at sea. So No.
3 was tried. His judgment was that
Temperament Is the psychic resultant
of the whole organic life of the indi-
vidual." BY this time hope was aban-
doned. But when No. 4 volunteered to
make 1t clear the family spirits re-
vived. Temperament Is general dis
position of the mind" he wrote, "the
distinctions of which depend on the
dominance of one or the other of the
physiological systems"
And now the family dictionary is
worn out.-Washington Star.

The Disease More Prevale nt than Ever ana
Quite as Fatal. The Best Treatment.
The grip has surprised the doc
tors and health authorities this season
by its rapid spread and by some novel
symptoms. While it spares nobody
it is proving especially dangerous to
middle-aged and elderly persons. In
many cases either fatal onset of
pneumonia, or complete breakdown
of health and strength, is apt to fol-
low an attack of grip.
The wise course for all is preven-
ton. By wearing Benson's Porous
Plaster on the chest and back you
protect the lungs from cold and chill
and with ordinary care) you are
safe from grip.
For those who are already suffer-
ing from grip, or from the usual win
ter coughs sand colds, Benson's Plasters
are sure and speedy relief and cure.

Refuse limitations and substitutes.
