Peace of the Senses,

american -nius has done much to promote the positive comfort of life To it the world owes some modern means of transportation and the Knowledge how to Ieat and light houses. Of late, observes Youths Com panion, Americans have exhibited in creasing good taste in making their houses beautiful as we'll as eomforta- ble; they have made great progress in landscape gardening, and have shown a disposition to devote money and genius 10 parks and boulevards. Our house of life is not entirely barren. One sort of amenity, however, the American has not secured for himself-the negative comfort that lies in freedom from of fensiye sights and sounds. Whistles on locomotive and factory bray in our towns. Trucks loaded with rattling iron girders clank through ene streets. Newsboys shatter the quiet with r IL eous yels Simultaneously with these assaults on the ear are shrieking of AtuStS u NHG - 9t. D44l bOdl Ao st.0h their brazen faces in Inappropriate spots; helds and meadows are splashed with signboards, and the faces of the rocks announce the merits of soap. Thus stated, the case against the na- tional good taste seems heavy enough. But hope descries signs of change A lecturer on civic improvements has been teaching us that we can rise in the morning and go to work without being footed out of bed and ooted through breakfast by shouting steam whistles. His idea that most whistles are unnec- essary except III emergency has been fayorably received by the 'ess, and physicians support his contention by assuring Us that noise has subtle wearing effect on the nerves. Another hopeml sign is the public agitation for the removal of adYeru sements from the New York subway as offensive to the eyes of the passengers. 1t is not too much 10 hope that Americans will some day forbid all unnecessary sights and sounds that cause our "pestereu senses to recoil and start"

 The Missouri idea means the en- torcement of the law. and that if the aw be bad the remedy is to repeal, not to ignore it. There is entirely too little respect for law in America.

 he was 56 years old that Lister was born in 1927, and was close on 10 50 years of age when he began To convert the medi- cal world to the principles of antiseptiC surgery. and that while Koch was born in lS43, and was within one year of 4O when he discovered the tubercIe bacillus. even the least appreeiatiye Of his ad- mirers will admit, says the Medical Record. that he has done some good work since 1882 George Washington. on whose birthday Dr. Osler promul- gated his belief in infant progedies, was over 43 years old when he was appointed commander of the continental army and was U when made first president oi the United States. Columbus was about 46 years old when he discovered Amer. ica. Bacon, kepler. Shakespeare, Nil
 ton, Oliver Cromwell, Robert Fulton and Morse, all added to the sum of ha. man achievement long after they had passed the dead line Of 40 years, OsleI published his first medical book when he was 10 years old, and Dr George NJ
