attached to them would seem to be a
|corollary of the meanings, light and
darkness.
In stating that the Yang and Yin
stand for light and darkness, and the
sexual or creative idea, practically
about all that there is to say as to the
original notion and its pictorial ex
preston has been said. The expansion
or elaboration of this idea, however
is quite another matter, and the chang
les have been rung upon it in every
conceivable form.
DIR. S. Wells Williams, professor of
the Chinese language and literature at
Yale college, in remarking upon Chu-
HIS (not Fun Hid philosophical no
tons, we'll says regarding the universal
application of the dual powers, or
Yang and Yin: His system of ma
terialism allows scope for the
lvagaries of every individual who thinks
he understands and can apply it to
explain whatever phenomena come in
his way. Heat and cold light and
darkness, fire and water, and substance
known or supposed-are regarded as
endued with these principles, which
thus form a simple solution for every
question. The infinite changes in the
universe, the multiform actions and re-
actions in nature, and all the varied
consequences seen and unseen, are
alike easily explained by this form of
cause and effect, this ingenious theory
of evolution"
This expresses it in a nutshell. 1t
were easy to quote page after page of
varied renderings of the idea to fit
pretty nearly everything under the sun.

lions will read them with interest; 9TH

LIABILITY TO Deafness.

A French surgeon says that men
are more subject to aural diseases
than women and that out of every
seven middle-aged persons there are
two who do not hear as well with
one ear as with the other. In every
thousand children under Is years of
nge four show symptoms of some
ear diseases and six ns.rked de-
ficiency in hearing power. The liza
bility to disease increases from birth
to the age of 40 and then begins grad
ually to decrease as old age advances.
Out of the total number of cases SUBJ
jected to surgical treatment, it is
estimated that about SO per cent. are
cured and 80 per cent. permanently
relieved.-Chicago Chronicle.
