offered Mr.. fireman one OF the upstate

THE SENSE OF HEARING.
Range Of Sound Waves That Impress
the Human Ear.

In the sense OF hearing numerous
problems have Interested the expert
mental psychologist. Among these
may be mentioned the range 81 sounds
that can De heard 10y an individual
that Is. the limit both above and be
low which no sound can be- heard.
The solution of these two problems,
the determination of the upper and
lower limit OF sound. has occasioned a
great deal of careful work aud the
construction Of many forms Of appa-
ratus.
For determining the upper limit OF
sound for any individual and indi-
viduals differ considerably the Gallon
whistle is generally used II consists
OF tiny pipe. which Is heightened or
shortened by a piston adjusted by a
micrometer screw This little instru-
mcmt can be- regulated 10 make a tone
which Is too high for any human ear
10 hear and which will finally produce
only painful sensation.
The Gallon whistle was devised by
Francis Cation for his study ~ indi-
vidual differences. lie had one OF the
whistles built into the end of his cane.
and rs he walked through the zoolog-
ical gardens he would blow it near the
ears of the various animals He ad-
justed the whistle tno high for his
own ear to hear. and II the various
animals responded to the sound he
knew that their upper limit was great
er than that of the human ear.
The ordinary human ear can detect
n tone whose vibration rate is at least
25,o00 vibrations per second. while the
whistle will produce $4,000 per second.
This upper limit varies with the age
Of the individual 10 such an extent
that. II the upper limit III sixteen years
or age were 10000 vibrations. at sixty
years of age it would h. abont $4,000
