Laughing is barking, say the sci
entists. The neck and head are
thrown back while a series of short
barks are emitted from the throat.
However musical the banks may be,
they are barks. The laugh begins
with a sudden and violent contraction
of the muscles of the chest and alb
domen But instead of opening to let
the air pass out Of the lungs, the vocal
cords approach each other and hold it
back. But they are not strong enough
to exercise such opposition for more
than an instant, and the air, which is
under pressure, promptly escapes. AS
it does so it makes the vocal cords vi
brate producing the bark.
This obstruction and liberation of
the air expelled from the lungs repeats
itself again and again at intervals of a
quarter of a second. There are thus
in hearty laugh four banks a second.
and if continued, they go on at that
rate as long as the air reserve in the
lungs holds out. The empty lungs
must then fill themselves, and this in
terval is marked by quick gasp for
breath, after which the banks are re-
newed. The barks occur in series
with gasps for breath at intervals,
When laughter is violent the entire
body participates. The upper part Of
the trunk bends and stratghtens itself
alternately or sways to right and left.
The feet stamp on the floor, while the
hands are pressed upon the loins to
moderate the painful spasm.

HEARTAcHEs ON EVERY nAeE.
Pathos and Tragedy in the Leaves Of
the Old Album.

On every page of an old album Is
written heartache, downfall, disillu.
sion, loneliness. Here is ahe picture
of the boy whose every Waking hour
outside of school was partly yours.
So genial a fellow he was, SO ambi-
tious, so brilliant. You Saw him last
year, and hardly recognized the shah
by wreck that drink had made,
hardly were able to exc out half an
hours conversation with him. Here
is the college chum with the fine
head who was to do great things in
life. Consumption. The blossom
blighted ere the fruit was set. This
other classmate with the face of
Keats-the merest hairs breadth of
misdirection in furrow of his brain,
first manifested in comic oddly.
After the flesh, our friend still lives;
only his mind is dead.
And here is one whose every line.
ament shows forth engaging frank
ness and the joy of life-worse than
dead. Embezzler, guilty fugitive with
a neighbours wife. His broken-heart-
ed old father his wife, his children
all of us who trusted him, how much
rather would we have followed him
to his grave than have this come upon
him! And then the long list of those
with whom our lives were interwined,
for whom we hoped, believed expect
ed-mere insipidities, trifes, failures,
half-Successes living along somehnw
And we ourselves, What we meant
then to be; and what we are!-Eu.

Panic-stricken, she turned to the

close, hot air; and she knew that If

Saver ring; Maitland's keys.
He must have dropped them there,
forgetting them altogether. A find of
value and one to save her a deal of
trouble, skeleton keys are so exas-
peratingly slow. particularly when used
by inexpert hands. But how to bring
herself to make use of these? Ais
fair in war (and this was a sort of
war, a war of wits at least) but one
should fight with ones own arms, not
pilfer the enemny's and turn them
against him. To use these keys to
ransaek Maitlands desk seemed an
action ever more blaekly dishonorable
than this elandestine visit, this mid
night foray.
Swinging the notched metal slips
from a slender finger, she contem-
plated them; and laughed ruefully
What qualms of conscience in a burg
lar, self-confessed! She was there for
purpose, a recognized, nefarious pur-
pose. Granted. Then why bubble?
She would not bubble. She would be
firm, resolute, determined, cold
bloeded, unmindful of all kindness and
courtesy and She would use them,
accomplish her purpose, and have
done, finally and for ever, with the
whole hateful business
There was a bright spot of color on
either cheek and hot light of anger
in her eyes as she set about her task.
1t would never be less hideous, never
less Immediate.
The desk drawers yielded easily to
the eager keys. One by one she had
them open and their contents explored

be sure, she must leave no stone I'M

But here she was safe for a few short
hours, and free to make assurance

There remained the dispatch box,
the black japanned tin box which had

ness spared her the necessity.
She lifted it out of a lower drawer,
and put it in her lap. The smallest
