An English medical authority gives
an interesting account of some conclu-

ing the remarkable. though not un-
familiar, phenomenon known as syn
aesthesia"-the association of one SEN
sation with another of different kind.
One of the most common examples is
the shivering sensation felt by many
persons on hearing the squeak of
pencil drawn across slate. Others
nave their teeth put on edge by the fl
ing OF saw. Such sensations are de
scribed as "sound-feeling" Color.
hearing-or sound-secing. as 1t IS
sometimes called-ls rarer form OF
synaesthesia. 1t consists in the asso.
ciation of color with some definite
sound. These color sensations are cor.
stant in the same person, but vary con.
slderably i'll different individuals. For
example. the sound of the vowel "a"
may be red to one person. blue to an.
other, and black TO third. When
light. instead of color. is associated
with sound, the phenomenon is known
as ''photism;" on the other hand. when
color or some definite image sug.
Sests sound, the condition is termed
''Dhonism."
\ singular case is recorded of a
e ereyman who, with his three chill.
Cren, was affected in this manner.
Since early childhood the father had
associated the sound of each letter of

up an old round muff and making ii
anew into a fiat one A paper pattern
may be taken from any friends muff
as guide Here is clever example:
The fur of an old muff lining being
inadequate, the owner cut it up into
strips. These strips she sewed onto
piece of cloth (the color green be-
cause it matched her suit. this cloth
having first been cut out into muff
shape. After the strips were sewed on,
the cloth showed about half an inch
between, the effect being quite pretty.
Then the wool padding and lining was
sewed in. This fur had to be matched
for the neckpece, says Vogue.
The model was first cut out of the
same green cloth. and then the fur
was cut into strips. In shape. this
broad collar was fitted to the shoulders
ard crossed partly above the waist
line. The stripes of fur worked in
extremely well. while muff and neck
collar when worn together. proved be-
coming and a success. The fur strips
must each be sewed on as fur borders
are. so that no stitches are seen. The
collar needs wool padding and lining
and two large green cloth buttons for
fastening.
