Of gancing at the ads This IS evident when people buy

Profitable Swindle Ended.

A curious fact about London sand.
wichmen has been revealed In the
working Of the insurance act. The act
has spoiled little game which Ger.
tain sandWichmen used to play with
great profit. "A man would hire him
self to one employer and go of. with
the boards. But he would merely de.
post them in some secret corner and
then go and offer himself to another
employer. In some cases this could
be worked several times over without
detection In the evening the man
would deliver up the boards in the
order in which he had received them.
But the working Of the insurance act
gave the show away, for these plural
lists had to have an insurance card
for each employer.

SOUNDS THAT ARE NOT HEARD
In Many, the Limit Is Either Too High
or Too Low for the Human
Ear to Catch.

In the sense of hearing numerous
problems have interested the expert
mental psychologist. Among these
may be mentioned the range Of sounds
that can be heard by 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
great deal of careful work and the
construction of many forms of appara.
tus. For determining the upper limit
of sound for any individual, and in.
dividuals differ considerably, the Gal.
ton whistle is generally used. +
It consists of tiny pipe, which is
heightened or shortened by piston
adjusted by a micrometer screw. This
little instrument can be regulated to
make tone which is too high for any
human ear to hear, and which will fin.
ally produce only a painful sensation,
. The Gallon whistle was devised by
Francis Gallon for his study of indi.
vidual differences. He had one of the
whistles built into the end of his cane
says the Strand Magazine, and as he
walked through the Geological Gar.
dens he would blow it near the ears
of the various animals. He adjusted
the whistle too high for his own ear
to hear, and If the various animals re-
sponded to the sound he knew that
their upper limit was greater than
that Of the human ear.
The ordinary human ear can detect
a tone whose vibration rate is at least
$4,000 vibrations second, while the
whistle will produce $4,000 second.
This upper limit varies with the age
of the Individual to such an extent
that, II the upper limit at 16 years OF
age were $4,000 vibrations, at 60 years
of age it would, be about $4,000 q sec
