SOCIETY,"
WRAPS FOR EVENING.

A feature of the smart evening wraps
seems to be their excessive length in
the back, but trains on all ceremonious
gowns are especially long this year. A
handsome gown for the opera is an ex-
cellent example of an elaborate recep-
ton gown. The material is black vel
vet, lined with. white satin. The train
is long, and made by the loose pleats
hanging from the waist, but the front
of the skirt seem rather narrow and
less faring than a short skirt would be.
1t was slashed up each side as high as
the knees and fans of black Chantilly
inserted. The skirt, and in fact the
whole costume, is trimmed with per-
forations showing the white satin, COW
cred with black lace sprinkled with
small silver beads. There are large
lace epaulets on the corsage and some
touches of silver cloth. The sleeves
of unlined lace are pleated to the ell
bows, and then continued in big puffs
to the wrists. A simple arrangement
makes the wristband. The lace is sim
ply held by three narrow bands of
black velvet ending with three tiny
bows,

transmission of new sounds, uniting
with and confusing the same, causing
much annoyance during the day and
often preventing sleep at night. These
head noises are what doctors call tin
nitus aurium." They may resemble
the buzzing of bees; the humming Of
insects; the roaring of the sea or of a
waterfall; the cracking and roaring
of wood fire; the singing of a tea
kettle; the hiss of a serpent, a goose,
or of escaping steam; the rumblng of
machinery; the murmer OF running
water; the tinkling or ringing of bells;
the purring of a contented cat; the COO

and many other forms of sound. The
everlasting diaboic pandemonium of
riotous. fragmentary and discordant
sounds prove so distracting to some as
to drive them insane. At best the inn
pairment of hearing, due to used
sounds that can find no vent and must
wear themselves out, robs one of many

Ninety per cent of all cases of deaf
ness, and nearly every case that is
accompanied by head noises. are due to
catarrh of the eustachian tubes. These
tubes are small and a little swelling
or thickening of their lining membrane
due to catarrh is sufficient to so di-
minish their calibre as to shut off the
natural vent for used sound. Owing
to the difficulty in blowing, sucking or
hawking out the mucus secretion or ca

The ear consists OF three parts; the
external ear; the tympanum or middle
ear; and the labyrinth or internal ear
By the external ear we mean the
"pinna" or tissue that projects on each
side of the head to assist to gather
sound waves and the auditory canal or
tube through which they are conducted
to the ear drum.
The ear drum is the membranous
partition that separates the external
from the middle ear.
The middle ear or "tympanum' starts
from the inner side of the ear drum
and extends to the Internal ear. The
middle ear contains three movable
bones, the "malleus" or hammer the
'1ncus" or anvil. the "stapes" or stir
rup. which form a chain across the
middle ear and connect with the inter-
nal ear. The "eustachian tube" leads
from the pharynx or back part of the
throat upwards to the middle ear. al
lowing air to enter and used sounds Ia
escape from that cavity.
The internal ear or labyrinth" con-
ssts of the "vestibule," the "semi-cir-
cular canals" the "cochea-" and fla
ments of the auditory nerve.
Sound is carried through the ear In
the form of waves. These waves OF
sound are gathered by the external car
and pass through the auditory canal
striking the ear drum which vibrates
These vibrations pass along the chair
of m lble bones through the middle
ear to the internal ear where they are
taken up by the filaments of the audi
tory nerve and carried to the brain
So we really hear with the brain, the
ear only gathers and transmits th'
sound
After sound vibrations have reached
the brain they. like the water which
has passed a mill wheel, should get out
of the way and make room for more

pipe or "eustachian tube" If water
below the mill be backed up on the
