MUSIC AS A TONIC.
It ls Good Not Only For tho Body, but
 For tho Soul as We'll.

It Is Good Not Only For tho Body, but
 For tho Soul as We'll.
 To what are the benefcent effects of music due? Darwin. who never rested until he could explain a thing. if it were explainable, could nevertheless no more explain why musical tones in a certain order and rhythm afford pleasure than we can account for the pleasantness of certain odors and tastes. We know that sounds more or less melodious are produced during the season of courtship by many in sects, spiders. fishes, amphibians and birds.''
 After all. says the Journal of the American Medical Association, we need go no deeper for an adequate explana- tion than that influences. such as mu- sic. which are agreeable are therefore salutary. and music is agreeable be- cause it's component tones are regular. periodic vibrations. even auditory waves. precisely so many to each note, being in this regard unlike noises, which are irregular dissonant, conflict ing vibrations. Sound waves impinge on the hearing sense. whence the per ceptiOn is conveyed to the brain.
 The benignant influence of music physically is by the transmission of it's influence from the cerebrum through the sympathetic system, which directs the various organs. Thus not only is music physic for the soul. dissipating mental depression. soothing psychic perturbations. but this influence may also enhance nutrition, further diges- ton as by the liver music" of the French and restore organic equilib- rum. Indeed. the entire working of the human mechanism. physical and mental alike. may be fabricated by q stream of music. which art and sci ence should therefore have a place in the medical armamentarium.

Rewards of Some European States For
 vaIor In Battle.

Rewards of Some European States For
 vaIor In Battle.
 All the great powers of Europe have some reward for conspicuous valor and bravery on the field of battle, and, although the plain bronze Victoria cross is the youngest of such decora- tions. dating back only to the Crimean war in 1856, it is the most valued pos session in many a home in England to- day The Austrian cross. on the other hand, is the oldest.
 A similar reward in Germany is the iron cross, instituted by King Frederick William III of Prussia in the year 1913.
 Russia gives as decoration to it's heroic soldiers the cross of St George. which was founded by the famous Elm press Catherine II. in the year 1769. and. while the Victoria cross is of bronze and the iron cross. as it's name Implies. of iron (which is edged with silver). the Russian order is of gold with beautiful medallion of St. George killing the dragon.
 In Austria the cross is of gold and was instituted in the year 1757 by the Empress Maria Theresa soon after her accession to the throne. It bears the same inscription as the British Vic toria cross. the British having in Eng fish "For Valour' and the Austrian in Latin the word "Fortitudine."
 The Order of the Legion of Honor, which is the reward in France. was in- stituted by the great Napoleon, and he decreed that every soldier who was decorated with that honor should have the additional distinction of being en- titled to receive a military salute from officers. noncommissioned officers and private soldierS.-London Tit-Bits.

WIT IN HISTORY.
A Brief Address and a Filthy Reply

A Brief Address and a Filthy Reply
 That Won With Royalty.
 Frederick the Great once granted a hearing to a subject on condition that he should cut his remarks very short.
 Let him say but two words." said the monarch.
 ''Very we'll" agreed the subject, and on entering the presence of Frederick he held out petition and uttered but the two words:
 Sire, sign"
 The subject won his request.
 King Henry VIII. wished to commis. sion a nobleman of his court to visit Francis I.
 It was at a moment when interna- tional relations were extremely shaky, and the courier showed no particular desire to absent himself from his home and country on so dangerous mission.
 Do not be afraid" said King Henry. If you lose your life in my service I will avenge you hundredfold. l will take off the heads of all the Frenchmen in my power"
 '"Thank your majesty; your majesty is most gracious" said the courier, but of all those heads which you take off there may not be one which will fit on my shoulders"
 The witty reply resulted in the court fer being excused from his dangerous mission.
