70 SOUNDS; lust VIBRATIONS
Scientists Point Out That Some Tones
Are SonorOus and Pleasing,
Others Dead"

Scientists say that there is really
no such thing as sound at all, but
what is called sound is vibration.
When a bell is hit it yibrates. The
vibrations produce a corresponding
motion in the air which strikes on
the drum of the ear and gives the
sensation of sound. Touch the bell
with your finger and You stop its
vibrations. The sound-waves in the
air at once cease and you hear no
sound.
Different vibrations cause differ
ent "sounds"-using the word in its
usual sense. Musical sounds are
the regular and uniform succession
of vibrations. Some sounds are
sOnOrous and pleasing, Others are
dead" A hard and elastic sub
stance like copper OF iron will give
vibrations which come TO the ear
pleasantly. From lead, which is not
hard or elastic, the sound produced
is nonsonorous. A cracked or split
bell gives a ~disagreeable nonmusical
sound because the crack causes a
double vibration. The sound-waves
crash and jar, impede each others
motion, and so produce a discordsnt
sound. Slow vibrations produce
bass or deep sounds. Quick vibra-
tons produce treble or shrill sounds.

FAITH DISEASES.

"There are faith cures a doctor
said, "and there are also faith dis
eases. You believe you're cured,
and 10, YOU are cured. You be-
lieye you've got a disease, and 10,
you're got it. Faith does the trick.
Every medical man knows the
story Of the hospital patient whose
nurse told him for a joke that the
patient preceding him had had
smallpox. Smallpox hadn't visited
that locality for years, but the Joke
victim took it and died Of il in
three days.
another hospital patient was
one day told that a lotion to be- APP
pied to his arm would burn him
pretty severely. BY mistake water
was applied instead Of the lotion,
yet the patient grimaced and
grosned IN pain, aud in a few min
utes large white blisters developed
wherever the water had touched.
1Faith! Faith is a marvellous
thing, aud to say that it will re-
move mountains is no great eIag-
geralion, after ALL" :.

President JOS. NJ Mattingly presid-
cd and opened tho meeting with u
forcefnl summary OF the plans and
prospects OF the association He
clearly demonstrated, by comparisons
drawn from other tobacco growing
states, that the Maryland organization
has saved the market from total ruin.
Notable sales nj prices above the pro-
yailinR market were reported and big
prospects were held out for tho future,
especially from efforts being made in
Germany.
The unrest among certain small
growers WAS recognized and plans
started, through suggestions bY Coun-
" Agent Wathen, TO care for their
financial needs.
The discussion further developed
that the Association had saved u tlii
growers thousands OF dollars Ia ferti-
lizer bills, and il was continuing ~
