This Sounds Right.

Sometimes it happens that a severe
shock restores health to persons VINO
are suffering from nervous prostration'
and this is how the phenomenon Is ex-
planned in foreign medical journal;
Every external stimulus 1npresses
The afferent centripetal fibers, or, rath-
or excites the molecular waves OF
change. The latter in turn decompose
the unstable molecules of a heXus'
and. through the intervention OF other
fibers. this decomposition, being the
source Of new molecular movements,
gives an impulse to certain mass OF
connected fieXus.
"The new vibratory modification thus
ohtained forms a new nervous iluid. a
portion of the current flows over the
afferent libers TO the contractile mus
cles of the periphery, while the other
portion is propagated by the reyerber-
alton of indistinct waves to the most
ramified eenters OF the organic econo-
my. and thus a complete and natural
nervous diffusion takes place"
Physicians, of course. understand
what this means, but how many lay
men can interpret it?

Tho Chinesc Lnngunge.

Chinese is an Geographic language.
1t conveys the idea and not the word
for a thing, as the figure s represents
the idea and not the word. The Chi
nese have invented more than 10000
marks for their writing, but it requires
only about 5000 marks for mercantile
correspondence. and it is said to be
easier to learn them than the words OF
an ordinary foreign language. Russian
is more difficult for Americans than
Chinese. 1t takes much longer to learn
the spoken language because of the va
riety of dialects, but any one can learn
enough of the writings to answer or
binary purposes in few months ana
have his knowledge perfected by
linguist within about year. Exact
instruction in one of the Chinese Ian
guages can only be given by China
man.-Detroit Free Press.
