Silence and Science.

Before 1t was determined scientific
 ally that smoke is waste, smoke was fixed as the final indication and proof of prosperity. Today q smokeless chimney means nothing less thar thrift and good management Similar ly we now hear that noise Is proof of urban life, progress and activity. We may answer that noise Is loss as surely as smoke is waste. Decreased comfort Is loss and noise decreases comfort
 Disturbed minds are loss through re
 duction of mental force. But these and similar consequences are indirect loss. There Is direct loss also. A rat, tling car means worn bearings and 2 short lived vehicle. Otherwise rali

Orawind Room.

A curious and regrettable revival Of the word draw" in the sense of with draw occurs in "draw wing room." Here the original meaning of the word Is lost because of its lamentable pronun ciation by the uneducated. Nobody. hearing 1t mentioned as droyinG room" at Its best or as "drorlng room" at Its worst" would suspect 1t of being a room to which to withdraw for relax atlon. Most words of the kind, though have no better claim to our admiration and many have worse one to our sense of language. "parlor' Is an ugly growth from the old monasterial ''par lolr,' or room where speaking was al lowed, and "Doud0ir," that early Victo rian expression of gcntility, began h. being room to sullI in. sitting room Is strange Instance of the confusion of cause and effect, and so is 'liyin. room" We come back to "drawi:.-. room" as to honest words, at least.- London Notes and Queries.
