BADLY AFFECTED BY WIND

That the wind of projectiles causes
the death Of soldiers is theory ad
vanced by Professor Laurent of Brus.

before the French Acadamy of Science
During the Balkan war, Professor Lau.
rent said he had noticed soldiers who,
seemingly, were troubled from cerebro-
. spinal disturbances. although having
escaped bullet. Sometimes the vic
Tins became cataleptic and in less
serious cases there were symptoms of
fainting, tingling sensations and par
tial paralysis.
In instances where this mysterious
infliction caused death, autopsies we're
held and these invariably revealed no
nervous LESSONS. Then it occurred to
Professor Laurent that the variations
of atmospheric pressure caused by the
passing Of the projectile had an effect
upon the nerve cells, causing inh;bi-
tion.
DR.. Matigon, during the Russia-Japan
war. reported similar cases. particu-
larly after a severe bombardment. AS
projectiles gain not only in size but in
speed, as the years go on. Just what
the toll from wind will be in the next
great conflict is hard to forecast.

WOULD BRIGHTEN A HOME
Possibilities In the Presence Of "OId-
Fashioned Grandmother" In
the Family.

One need only scan the Situation
to find that women workers are wan
dering away from beaten tracks and
trying out their moneymaking Ideas.
One finds also that because a wom-
an is getting along in years she does
not meekly resign herself to the no
ton that she has no earning capacity.
She simply sets her wits to work
and originates a niche for herself
one where maturity is the very thing
that is required.
Here is an advertisement which re-
Gently appeared in a newspaper:

MOTHER wants position to super

Guiding music, Latin and reading
aloud; can also do the darning and
mending at the home"

Just such a woman is needed-oh, so
badly!-a home where either there is
no mother or one who is an invalid.
unable to cope properly with the de-
mands of growing brood Of school
children.
Can't you imagine how valued an
"old-fashioned grandmother" would be
in such an stablishment-one who
could mend rents in garments and
draw up the big holes that will creep
into stockings, and hear lessons?"
1t would not be necessary for her
to know music and Latin. Just the
simple branches-the three Rs" so
to speak. would be enough. especially
II coupled with the art of reading
aloud or telling stories when lessons
were done.

! T. Miyaoka, formerly councillor In
| the foreign Office, is a widely known
lawyer practising in Toxic and Yoko-
hama. He says:
There is historic cause to the
growth of anti-Japanese sentiment
among certain sections Of the foreign
community In Japan During the regime
OF foreign consular Jurisdiction foreign
ers regarded themselves as a superior
and a privileged class. The compare
lively infantile stage OF Japan's mate
rial civilization, the system of segrega-
tion under which foreigners lived in
Japan. their absolute ignorance of the
Japanese language and literature, their
exemption from the territorial jurisdic-
ton, all combined to make foreigners
sincerely believe that they belonged to
a much superior type of humanity. The
abolition Of consular Jurisdiction, the
resumption of judicial. fiscal and ad-
ministrative power by japan over for
eign residents In the country, the re-
suit Of the two foreign wars that Ja-
Pah hhu WdbCu Withiu tCh gCdis, tuO
abolition Of the system Of foreign set
tlement the growth of more intimate
relations both commercial and indus
trial between Japanese and foreign
ers, all these facts combined to give
to much larger percentage of for
eigners in japan a more correct and
intimate knowledge of the Japanese
character. things and life
"On the other hand, the awakening
Of the Japanese people to their power.
their aspirations to- become a world
power, their keen desire to compete
with Europeans and Americans in the
neutral markets of the world have
created a sense of resentment among
the minor section Of the foreign CON-
munity. Thus foreigners in Japan are
divided into two camps, pro and anti
and 1t is the minority that
makes the largest noise"

Facts Compiled BY ststistIcIsn WIN
Come to Many az Something Of
q Surprise.

It has been computed that about 36.
100000 babies are born into the world
each year. The rate Of production
is therefore about 70 per minute, OF
more than one for every beat Of the
clock.
With the one-a-second calculation
every reader is familiar. but II is not
every one who stops to calculate what
this means when 1t comes to years
supply. Il will, therefore, probably
startle a good many persons to find,
on the authority of well-known sta
tisticician. that. could the infants OF
a year be ranged in line in cradles,
the cradles would extend around the
globe.
The same writer looks at the matter
in a more picturesque light He imag-
in's the babies being carried past q
given point In their mothers arms.
one by one, and the procession being
kept up night and day until the last
hour In the twelfth month had passed
by. A sufficiently liberal rate is al
lowed, but even in going past at the
rate of 20 a minute. 1900 an hour.
during the entire year, the reviewer
at his post would have seen only the
sixth part of the infantile host.
In other words, the babe that had
to be carried when the tramp began
would be able to walk when but a
mere fraction of its comrades had
reached the reviewers post, and when
the years supply of babies was draw
ing to a cclose there would be a
rear guard, not Of infants, but Of
romping six-year-old boys and girls.

Air Pressure In Musical Instruments

AIT fFesSuTc IN MUSICAL instruments.
In an interesting article In the
Philosophical Magazine" Mr.. Foord
refers to Dr. Stones table Of wind
pressure required to play various
notes Of the scale on various wind
instruments. The table indicates that
as the notes rise higher in the scale
the air pressure necessary to produce
them increases with most wind instru-
ments, although not with all. In the
clarinet, for example. the pressure de-
creases from the low notes to the
high ones. varying from Is inches Of
water to s inches. Mr.. Foord re-
peated these experiments on the clar-
met and saxophone. playing the whole
range of notes first loudly and then
softly. For the clarinet 1t Is found
that the pressures fall as the. notes
rise, agreeing with Doctor Stones ta-
BILE, although the inverse law holds
good for the oboe. bassoon. horn. cor
net, trumpet, euphonium and combar-
don. With the saxophone 1t is found
that the pressure corresponding to
notes at the beginning and end of the
register are equal, the pressure rising
to a maximum at the note d about
halfway through the scale.

Little Girl Traces Thief.

When Philadelphia policemen were
oafiied in their efforts to recover a
dress stolen from the automobile of
Frank Miller of 2235 Chadwick street.
twelveyear-old jeanette Mclaughlin
came to the aid of bluecoats. She had
traced the stolen garments by means
OF beads which dropped from it as the
thief fed. The policemen took up the
clue offered by the girl and found that
1t led to a moving picture theater. Sure
enough, inside they found the garment.

The "sit up straight" movement is
being fostered by the American
Posture League, newly incorpo-
rated organization of New York
Its purpose is to get folks 10 sit
straight and stand straight, two
things which modern women par
ticnlarly seem 10 have forgotten
how to do.
The debutante or ingenue "slouch"
made popular last year seems to be
gaining favor each day. This
"slouch," so-ealled, consists OF
dropping the shoulders and allow
ing the abdomen TO protrude. IN
the old days il might have been
characterized as sway back" The
SLOUGH or droop, as IL is now being
practised by young women, Is de
cided unnatural. aud being unnat
ural, it is, of course, injurious to
the health.
Nature never intended that the
female of the species should go
about with sunken chests and
dropping shoulders. Straighten up,
girls. Join the Posture League aud
leave the SLOUGH or slump or droop,
as IL Is known, to the memories OF
the vain and foolish Empire period.
Stand straight-sit straight--walk
straight. Don't be II SLOUGH.
