AnnihiIatinq.

In the medical department of Co
lumbia university there was a pro-
fessor who had very high opinion
of himself; he also disliked to assist
the students in any personal way, and
was noted for propOunding difficult
questions during examination.
One day, after lengthy lecture, one
of the students, with a perplexed air,
walked up to the professor and asked
him to explain why his theory of a
certain phenomenon should be accept
ed to the exclusion Of all others, and
also gave his reason for believing an.
other theory to be the better. This
question was a little too difficult for
the lecturer to answer offhand, so,
with a contemptuous look, he re.
piled:
MY dear sir. are you aware that
fools often ask questions that wise
men can't answer"
The undergraduate, with a sembl-
ance of a smile on his lips, replied:
rs that the reason, professor, why
so many of us funk at your exams?"-

Clinton Rogers Woodruff told this
story at the banquet of the America
Periodical Publishers association at
Lakewood recently.
1t was in the evening of April Fools
day and certain innocent little boy
named Willie felt that he was in a po-
sition TO play a good joke on his
mother. Looking excited as possible,
he went to her and said: "Oh, man.
ma! There's strange man in the
lower hall holding Julia (their upstairs
maid on his lap and kissing her like
fun"
Indeed" exclaimed his mother in
dignantly, 1ouncing toward the stair
way. Il will put stop to that at
once!"
ooh, April fool, mamma" said Will
lie, elated-"it's only papa!"-New

Medieval Ideas of Women.

John Nevisan, who died in Turin in
1910. stated the medieval notion of
women in his sylvia Nuptials, when
after remarking that the Author Of
Good had made women entirely with
the exception of her head, he added
briefly: "Permisit Deus illud facere
daemonio" Good let the devil make
that"). In the same century Jean
Raulin preached that man, composed
of clay, is silent and ponderous; but
woman gives evidence Of her osseous
origin by the rattle she keeps up" 1t
was another Frenchman, Henrion, the
orientalist, who was gracious enough
to allow woman the supremacy in one
respect at least. With minute accur-
acy he fixes the height of Noah at 1903
feet, of Moses at 19 feet, of Hercules
at 10 feet, Of Alexander the Great and
Julius Caesar at and feet, respect
ively-and of Eve at ll8 feet SIS
inches.

MUSIC'S QUEERPOWER
SOME NOTES HAVE REALLY MAR.
Vicious EFFECT.
Scientists Explain the Fall of the
Walls of Jericho by This Singular
Phenomena-ResuIts of nvestiga-
tons Startling In the Extreme.

If you happen to have little musi-
Gale some night and picture should
come falling from the wall or a statue
should totter and tumble from its
base when one of the soloists reaches
a high key don't be alarmed or re-
gard the incident as an evil omen,
says the Brooklyn Eagle. 1t is only
freak of music. Several thousand
years ago a similar occurrence took
place, only of course, it was on more
extended scale and made a great deal
more talk than the falling Of your pic
ture or your statue would make. The
occurrence in question was the fall
ing of the walls of Jericho when
them and blew their trumpets. A good
many people class this as miracle,
but scientists say it was simply one
Of the many phenomena caused by
musical notes. They refer to paral-
lei case that happened not long ago at
Heiligenstart, near Leipsic. A music
master of that place was organizing
brass band. One day, as usual, he
gathered his musicians for practice in
his garden, which was situated at the
foot of the ancient walls of the city.
Suddenly, while the trumpets had
reached their highest notes, the city
walls fell with a terrific crash and
the musicians scattered in panic
There is some scientific reason for
this, but nobody seems to know just
what it is. 1t is not the forceful vi
bration of air currents for the detona-
tons of cannons does not have the
power in this respect that is eXerted
by light musical notes. There is
some peculiar combination Of the
notes that causes the ruin of the walls
some unknown force that is as pow
erful as a blast Of dynamite. 1t is not
an unusual thing for glass to be
shattered in room where musicale
is being held, and for other remark
able mechanical effects to be produc-
ed. But the mechanical effects are
not the only curious results Of this
unexplainable combination of notes.
So many wonderful things have been
produced by music that it may be
rightfully classed as one of the mys-
teries. Numerous Investigations in diff
ferent lines of endeavor have been
made as to its power and capabilities
anu in nearly every instance the re-
suits have been startling.
One Of those who have made a
study of the curiosities and the mys-
teries of music is Mrs. Amelia Wood
Holbrook of New York. Mrs. Holbrook
is a playwright lecturer and author
and she has probably made greater
and more painstaking research into
the mysteries of music than any other
person in this country. She is a mem

league. and several other clubs, and
her investigations into the science of
music have made her well known in
all parts of the United States.

freaks of music" said Mrs. Holbrook
the other day. "but they certainly exist
and frequently exhibit themselves"
