Sounds That Light Gives Out When
Blended With Various Hues.

Sounds That Light Gives Out When
Blended With Various Hues.
1t is no unusual thing to see Il ray of
light. but have you ever heard one?
Recent experiments, described i'm Har-
per's Weekly prove that beam of
light can, under certain conditions.
produce perfectly clear and distinct
sounds.
A ray Of sunlight is thrown through
a lens on Il glass vessel that contains
lampback, colored silk or worsted a
disk with Sits or openings cut in it is
made to revolve swiftly in this beam
of light so as to "cnt it up" and cause
alternate flashes OF light and shadow
When you place your ear to the glass
vessel you hear strange sounds as long
as the flushing beam falls upon the
vessel
still more extraordinary effect is
produced when the beam of sunlight
is made to pass through Il prism so as
to produce the solar spectrum. The
disk is turned rapidly. and the colored
light of the rainbow breaks through it
and falls on the glass vessel. Now if
You place your ear to the glass you will
hear sounds from certain parts of the
spectrum. but none from the others.
For example. if the vessel contains
red worsted and the green light flash
es upon it quite loud sounds will be
given out. Only feeble sounds will be
heard when the red and blue ends of
the spectrum fall upon the vessel. 9th
or colors produce 10 sounds mt all.
Green silk gives out sound best i'm Il
red light. Every kind of material gives
more or less sound in different colors
and no sound at all in others.

Bronchial Diseases.


A young Italian physician. DR..
ID Aiutolo, was the first scientific
student to call attention to the
healing power of laughter in
bronchial diseases. He declared
this before the MediCe Chirurgi-
cal Society of Italy and backed
up the statement by producing
patients cured entirely and sole
ly by laughter purposely provok-
ed. 1t seems thnt the shaking
of the sides aidEthe expulsion
OF secretion and permits the oXy- ,
gen of the air to dry UP and heal
the diseased cells. And not mere
ly in lung diseases is it etlicaci-
Gus. for the side splitting laugh <
ter loosens the PARTICLES of de-
cayed matter in the muscles and
hastens their discharge through
the lymphatics. Thus disease
germs are carried off and the (
whole body is stronger and more =
immune from contagion.

THE BfLC|ANS
LIVING IN Tents
Three Thousand Refugees Are Under
Scant Shelter-Thousands Re-
turning from Holland
ALI Must be Fed.

London, Nov. 3O.-"The popula-
ton of Belgium which must be fed
during the winter probably will be
many thousands more than seemed
likely very short time ago.
This is the conclusion reached by
a special commission delegated by
the American commission for the re-
lief of Belgium to make an investi-
cation. The commissioner sent a
telegraphic report from Rotterdam
today to Herbert Clark Hoover,
chairman of the American commits
sion.
Speaking of the Belgian refugees
in the south of Holland, the commits
sioner said large numbers, most of
whom belonged to the agricultural
element, had returned to Belgium or
were going to return, with the re-
suit that there would be an enor-
nous addition to the starving pop
ulace, as it is impossible to get work.
At Bergen-Op-Zoom there are 81
900 refugees living in tents. Most
Of the tents shelter two families.
With the ground like quagmire
and the cold almost unbearable, the
refugees sit huddled around small
fire by day and sleep on straw at
night.

rested in Germany.

New York, Nov. 30.-Edward
Bright, an American citizen, gradu-
ate of Columbia and formerly edi-
tor of the Baptist Examiner, is I'M
der arrest at Goettingen, Germany,
charged with being a spy, according
to information received by his wife
in this city. Mrs. Bright got word
recently that her husband was inn
prisoned on Oct. II, and after APP
,pealing to the state department at
Washington she decided to make her
information public.
Mr.. Bright, with his family, had
resided at Goettingen for nearly ten
years, Mrs. Bright said. He was
studying at Goettlngen university.
Mrs. Bright with her two sons came
here shortly before the war began.
Her first news regarding her hus-
bands plight came in letter dated
Oct. Is, written by a maid in the
Brights' Goettingen household. This
was confirmed by a letter written
from Goettingen Oct. 80 by an
American friend, who said her hus-
band had appealed to the American
consul and to Ambassador Gerard
and that the consul at Hanover had
promised to make trip to Goettin-
gen to Investigate.
Mrs. Bright notified the state de-
partment which cabled to the con-
sui at Hanover and received word
that Ambassador Gerard had re
quested an early investigations"
The nature of Mr.. Bright's alleg-
ed offense is not definitely known.
Mr.. Bright was born in Yonkers.
N. Y, forty-seven years ago. He
was a son of the late DR.. Bright,
whom he followed as editor of the
Baptist Examiner. He gave up this
work to travel and study abroad.
