lower. In general the range of zero

necessary to show that the sensation
OF indifference depends on the surface
temperature of the body?
The same medium should appear
icy or broiling to the fever patient, as
his surface temperature oscillates.
And as the sensations of heat or cold
correspond to an exit or entrance of
heat, the contact that assures thermic
equilibrium should assure also a state
of sensorial indifference.
AT first sight 1t would appear odd
that one should experience a sensa-
tton of heat when the external tenn
perature is identical with his own
surface temperature And, in fact,
exact experiments in thermoesthesio-
metry have shown that In certain spots
on the hand, for instance, drop of
water at the same temperature is not
felt. But the surface temperature is
only a cross between the internal and
external temperature, adapting itself
to this double influence by capri
cious regulating mechanism under the
direct but obscure action of the nerv-
Gus system.

the fact that he has neglected to take

QUEER EASTER CUSTOM.
How the Filipino Penitents Torture
Themselves.

One of the many curious customs
practiced by some persons in the Phil
ippine Islands is the way in which
they observe the week before Easter
For the Thursday, Friday and Satur-
DAY before Easter the streets or roads
on the outskirts of some villages, and
sometimes the principal streets of the
town itself, are filled with crowds,
who have come to see the natives in
fiict self-torture.
The willing victims are stripped to
the waist, their faces are covered with
thick cloth and around one hand is
heavy hemp rope, with a cluster Of
from fifteen to twenty smaller hempen'
cords. To each of these is fastened
small piece of hard wood. The whole
thing is just long enough so that when
flung over the shoulder It will not
quite reach to the waist.
When the penitents are ready to
start out Filipino, who has been ap-
pointed as q sort of overseer, takes
the flesh of the back between his
thumb and first finger and cuts the
skin with long holo. This is done
all over the back. He then cries,
"Alla, sigie" (Go ahead.') Then the
penitent begins to beat his back by
laS0lnS MS cluster OF little pieces OF
wood and cords first over one shout
|, der, then the other, until the back is
80 lacerated that it somewhat resem-
hles raw beef. All the while the on
lockers and victims also are singing,
or rather chanting, most dismal, un-
earthly, funeral chant. z.

this design and pipings Of plaid silk

ADJUSTMENTS
Blanche Walsh in sThe Woman in the
Caan8

Case
about The Woman in the Case"
the new play in which Blanche Walsh
is to appear at the Metropolitan this
evening, there can scarcely be two
opinions" says the always unbiased
critic of Town Topics. 1T teens with
dramatic interest through three acts,
and II the last act Is almost unneces-
sary, it has the merit of being short
and can be excused on that score.
The Woman in the Case like most
of the Fitch plays, tells story of to-
day-a story of New York men and
manners, and 1t tells 1t with the sure,
deft manner of the man who knows.
From the first it grips the interest and
holds 1t. 1t is real and thrilling. 1t
is refreshing, too, in its picture of
domestic trust and loyalty. Very fine
indeed is the character of Margaret
Rolfe, assumed by Blanche Walsh, and
not one whit overdrawn; and almost
equally good is that of Julian, her hus-
band, manly, frank and clean. Against
this fair background the sordid, vul-
gar creature of the chorus and the
town, Claire Forster, is silhouetted
clear and sharp and forbidding. Clyde
Fitch has written another success"
