Possibility of a Second Speech Center Waa Considered, but Experiment Have Destroyed That Hope, According to Physicians. Some time ago the develonment of left-handedness in children was warmly advocated by various persons, not only because in this wav relianca cnulrl tin placed on both upper extremities for mecnanical work, which would un doubtedly be of advantage in case of serious disturbance of the functions of the right arm, but also because the hope was entertained that by training the left arm a second speech center might develop in the right hemisphere of the' brain In the same way as the well-develoDed right arm corresnonda with the speech center place in the leit naif of the brain. The Berlin physician, M. Frankel, Iwas eSDeciallv active In tha arlvncncv pf this Idea in fact, experiments in tnis direction were Undertaken in va rious localities. The practical results Which have been no fur rennrteri rln not correspond in any degree to the optimistic expectations of the advo cates of the method, says the Journal of the American Medical Association. Doctor Schafer, on the basis of per mission granted by the schocl depu tation, collected statistics with refer ence to the left-handedness among about 18,000 pupils of the Berlin publio schools. These statistics show that 4.06 per cent of all the children are left handed, 5.5 per cent of all the boys iand 2.98 per cent o the girls. The percentage of children in whom both hands are equally developed is very small, being only .21 per cent. The overwhelming majority, 95.73 per cent of all the children, are distinctly right- hauded In several school districts, among 448 teachers, there were ten Who were left handed. L. Katscher's work on "Training the Left Hand" was the theoretical basis for the exercises to train the left hand. They included exercises in writing, arithmetic manual training and gym' nasties; especially In the last two systematic efforts were made. In gen eral, the result showed that the dos- sibility of employing the hitherto un used left hand at first excited great joy and marked interest, but the phys ical awkwardness generally was i great hindrance. The outcome of the whole exDeri- nient shows that in no case could a preference for the left hand be de veloped. It may be trained to be a welcome assistant to the right hand ,but never a substitute for it. In teaching writing the complaint Is Imade of a destruction of the pathetic. sense and a deterioration of the hand writing. The children refused to write 'with the left hand, became nervous and worried over it and increased in tellectual development was in no case observed. Almost all those who gave an opinion were unanimous that the advantages stood In no relation to the expenditure of time, pains and pa tience. New Ills. "Jonesby had a doctor with him all night."

Allah be praised I Glan Singh 1b without his "devil thumbs," extra ones that grew upon his hands. They were taken from him the other day by Allah, he says, but the surgeons In the receiving hospital say differently, and say it in a very technical and convincing way. From the time of his youth in the village Tuse, district of Ludhiana, Pun Jab, India, Gian Singh has not found favor In the eyes of his relatives, and always the little boys with whom he played reviled him by calling him Devil Thumbs." It was a malformation of the thumbs from which he suffered, not an uncom mon thing in the United States, but a horrible visitation and curse in India. Never could he be a favored son of Allah. When he had a chance le came to America, but his friends took his com panionship without grace, and when an affair of chance was undertaken by them recently, and they lost, they cursed Glan Singh roundly, and, by the custom of their race, spat upon him. So great was Gian Singh's distress that he came to the receiving hos pital, and asked if some deliverance could not be given him from the curse he bore. The surgeons re marked "easily." The other day Glan Singh and his friend, Omar, came to the hospital. A moment for anesthesia, the quick and tense activity of the surgeons, and Glan Singh was being wheeled back to his bed In the ward. As he was trundled along, he awakened for an inBtant. Instantly he held his hands high, so he could look upon them. There was the thumb, one thumb on his right hand. His left was the same. With a sigh, he renewed his dreams In anesthesia, only to mut ter, "Allah be praised!" Los An geles Times. Enormous Rainfall In Hawaii. The rainfall on the island of Hawaii varies greatly, ranging from the enor mous downpour of 353 inches a year in the upper Waiplo valley to 20 Inches on some of the slopes of Hualalal, The only surface streams on the Island are found along the northeast coast between HIIo and Kohala. Waiplo river, according to the United States geological survey, is the largest stream on the island and has been partly developed for Irrigation. At Ka- poho, on the east point of the island, warm water flows from seams In the rocks. These "warm springs" flow Into a pool about 100 feet long, 25 feet wide, and 20 feet deep. The pool is entirely surrounded by rocks and Its color varies in shade from a beautiful blue to violet. Walapele, or Green lake, Is a body of fresh water In the pit of an old crater near Kapoho. This lake covers an area of about five teres and is fed by springs below the surface. A pumping plant takes water from this lake for domestic use and for irrigation.

Acting and Singing. Another question relative to study ing a role is: "Is there any differ ence between studying characters for acting and for singing?" Here again I must quote myself. I need the music to inspire me. Many persons have told me that If I would leave the operatic stage for the drama I would be the greatest actress the world has ever seen. I don't believe it. I don't think all of this could be brought out of me without the music, because It is the music which does bring it out. The case of "Salome" is quite in point here I went first to see it acted without any music, because I thought it would be interesting to act it, if I never sang it It was Just a commonplace drama, that's all; but when Strauss put the music to it it became strong, tense, magnificent in brief, a new thing! Nor was I the only one af fected that way by the change. In Paris, where it was created, everyone said, when Strauss had put ilubIc to the drama: "The hand has found Its glove."

Nice, France, has recently adopteo. a new system of sterilization for Its drinking water. The water is eterll Ized by the use of ozone, which is pro luced In an ozone generator. The generator consists of copper plates be tween which are glass sheets, and the lir between tho plates is decomposed by a silent discharge at 17,000 volts pressure. The decomposed air Is Jrawn by suction fans through a Burt Her which eliminates the nitrogenous jompounds, and therefore the ozone Is tonducted to a chamber Into which Ihe water flows. The water passes through a layer of gravel on a wire letting, and falls into the chamber In he form of a heavy rain. The ozone Absorbed by the water Is thereafter Extracted by having the water fall on Stone steps. The water Is then abso lutely free of germs. There are two Mants at Nice, one with an output of 40 gallons per second, and the other with an output of 80 gallons. What They Escaped.
