MAKING FACES" AS AN AID TO
HEALTH,

Massage and exercise. at various
times, have been advocated as a pa
nacea for many and divers ills. Fer
net now proposes that by exercise we
may be able to influence fayorably the
encrOaching deafness of the elderly,
or that following inflammation of the
middle ear. He remarks that children
can often move the ears and part OF
scalp voluntarily, and some may be-
came quite exceptional in this faculty.
He believes that, through exercise,
adults will be able to produce such
movements. He has devised three Sc
ries of exercises, as follows: The first
consists of grimaces of the face, con-
tracing in turn the muscles of the
lips, nostrils and eyelids, aiming ulti-
mately to reach the ear; next the
frontal and occipital muscles are con-
tracted alternately and then the mus
cles above and behind and in front of
the ear. The muscles of the eustacian
tube are then exercised by directions
which he gives fully. He says, "Med-
ical men, knowing the anatomy Of the
parts, can train their muscles very eff
fectually in this way; others need an
instructor to show them" Just what
the ultimate outcome of this proposal
will be is questionable, says the Jour
nal of the American Medical Associa.
ton. We may picture to ourselves
tentatively a future period when all
around us will be visible a series of
grimacing, ear.wiggling elderly men
and women in the act Of improving
their ears and warding off the en-.
croaching deafness of old age. "Physi.
clans, particularly" says Fernet, need
good hearing, and rather than accept.
ing deafness with the fatalism of the
Oriental, they should rise up and fight
it" If it is to be combated by this
method, the word flight is avery ap.
propriate one.

the king of Spain is now going the
rounds of Paris. The other day, It is
said, a man was driving up a steep
hill just outside of Madrid a heavily
laden cart drawn by two miserable
horses. both of which looked to be at
the end of the tether.
One of them, dead beat, fell ex-
hausted. and was unable to arise. In

unfortunate beast by the driver. with
the butt end of his whip.
At this point a large automobile
came into view over the brow Of the
hill, driven by a young man. with a
lady at his side. The motorist took

once stopped
Getting down, he skilfully raised
the wretched horse to it's legs, and
then proceeded TO box the ears of the
driver soundly.

The day before her marriage she
went out with her mother and bought
quantities of flowers which she sent
to the children's hospitals. in which
she always has been interested. and
all the flowers used for the decora-
ton of the reception were used for
the same purpose. She was beauti-
