Jk Theory That They Affect the Human Mind as Well ax tne Hummi Ni|;ht- There are some curious things in re gard to the way in which the humnn mind is affected by colors as well as the human sight. We are all familiar with what is termed color-blindness, and the unexpected results that sometimes attend it; but color-sound is some thing which has received much less in vestigation. How much, or in what way, animals, are affected by colors, is not very well understood; but tlie subject has been investigated enough to know that they are influenced by them, and the future will probably bring out some surpris ing results to the one who shall thor oughly cultivate this comparatively un explored field or research. Some peo ple can select and appreciate the colors of sounds; and to them the speaking of a name presents, mentally, a well- defined color, or combination ot colors, different names having diflerent shades or combinations. Tlie same namo should, of course, al ways present tlie sumo color, or combi nation, when spoken, although, to dif ferent people, possessing the faculty, a given name or sound does not present the same characteriKtica. To prove the first of these two facts, a list of names was prepared, and tho shade or color given by a lady who has this power, marked against eaoh one of tlie list After several weeks the names were again read to her, and tho colors desig nated by her mnrked. This course was pursued several times during a year or more, tho lady not being allowed to see the results at that time, During those sovceal experiments the only variations in the answers given were such ns would lie natural where there was somo uncertainty in regard to terms; for ex ample, the answer to a given name at one time might bo “bluish," and at another "lead-color;" SO, so, what wa» called “straw-color" might lie after ward called "buff." Tlie approach to similarity in the «hade shows that the same mental picture was present, and only languago was at fault. With one or two exceptions thes« were the only changes noted in tlie sev. eral trials, and the extent to which the experiments were carried warranto the belief that there was a well defined idea of the oolor of word«.— 1'opular Science Monthly. x>- -------- — —There are girls who never hear a big church bell in the next block, and yet they are aide to detect the tinkling of the tiny bells on an ice-cream cart Cour squares away.— N. 0. l'icayune. SIGHT AND MOTION. Two Examples of the Illusion« to Which Our Sense« Are MultJent. < SKfc Í Tlie senses are subject to illusions in proportion to the remoteness of the in formation that they give from the im mediate necessities of the organism, Touch, tho most immediate and least inferential of the senses, is least aub- ject to illusions: while sight ia to very much so. that tho blind often say they have an advantage over tlie seeing in being free from visual illusions. Tlie illusions of bodily motion are much nearer to those of touch than to those of sight, and yet they can under cer tain conditions lie induced through visual impressions. Of this the writer has recently hud two interesting exam ples. He was standing upon the floor of a railroad depot, the boards of which were laid with a considerable open space between them; and tlie shadow of an electric light was moving up and down by the swiuging of the light in the wind. Looking at the floor, it seemed as though the shadow were sta tionaty, and the floor-boards moving. From inis it followed that the person on it was moving, too. and the writer distinctly felt the swinging sensation; in fact. Ids attention was called to the phenomena by this feeling of motion. The other observation was a« follows while riding In the cars and looking out 1 of the window, the trees and all are I seen to move in the opposite direction. | If. now, one look« in a mirror so situ- •ted that it reflects the and- visl- scajrc. which, however ble except in the mirror, one ha« ths illusion of moving in the op]>o«iie to the real direction of motion, owing to the reversal of the image In the glass. In both these cases an immediate bodily sensation Is induced by a more OT leas unconscious inference through Viaual sensation«. — Baisncn. ■'»'-•'I. STEAMSHIP STATISTICS. ~ MR. DUNDER'S TROUBLES. The Enormous Amount of Provender Re quired for M Single Trip. 11« Goes to the Police Station and Tolle a VVo.ful Tale. Commissioner Morton, of the Bureau of Navigation, says that 60 years ago a transatlantic steamer burned 44 tons of coal daily, while the most recently built vessel in this trade burns 300 tons. The latter also consumes 130 gallons of oil every duy and requires 287 persons to man her throughout. For a single passage to the westward she had the following quantities of provisions: 12,660 pounds fresh beef, 760 pounds of corned beef, 5,280 pounds mutton, 850 pounds lamb, 350 pounds veal. 350 pounds pork, 2,000 pounds fresh fish, 600 fowls, 300 chick ens, 100 ducks, 50 geese, 80 turkeys, 200 brace grouse, 15 tons potatoes, 30 hampers vegetables, 220 quarts iee cream, 1,000 quarts milk and 11,500 eggs. In groceries alone there were over 200 different articles, including (for tlie round voyage of 22 days) 650 pounds of tea. 1.200 pounds of coffee, 1,600 pounds white sugar, 2,800 pounds moist sugar, 750 pounds pul verized sugar, 1,500 pounds cheese, 2,000 pounds butter, 3,500 pounds ham, 1,000 pounds bacon. Lemons were used at tlie rate of 1) per day per head; oranges throe per head per day. and apples, when in season, at the rate of 2j per head por day. 'Tlie quantities of wines, spirits, beer, etc., put on board for consumption on the round voyage comprises 1.100 bottles cham pagne, 850 bottles claret, 6,000 ale, 2,- 500 bottles porter, 4,500bottles mineral water. 650 bottles of various spirits. Crockery is broken very extensively, being at the rate of 900 plates, 280 caps, 438 saucers, 1,214 tumblers, 200 wine glasses, 27 decanters and 63 water bottles in a single voyage. No less than 4,656 sheep, 1,800 lambs and 2,474 oxen are consumed on the entire fleet of one line eaoh year. This is equival ent to 2,091,754 |iounds of meat Eight h u nd rod and thirty-one thousand six hundred and three eggs, 21,000 pounds of tea and 71,770 pounds of coffee, sweetened by 296,100 pound of sugar, are used in a year, while tlie following articles also figure largely: One and one-half tons of mustard. If tons of pepper, 7,216 bottles of pickets, 8,000 tins of sardines, 30 tons salt cod and ling, 4,192 4 four-pound jura jam, 15 tons marmalade, 22 tons raisins, currants and UX tigs, ”. 18 tons split tons pearl barley, peas, 15 17 tons of rice, 34 tons oatmeal, 460 tons flour. 23 tons biscuits, 33 tons salt, 48,902 loaves of broad (8 pounds each), 53 tons hams, 20 tons bacon, 15 tons cheese, 930 tons ]Kitatoes, 24,075 fowls, 4,230 ducks, 2,200 turkeys, 2,200 geese, 31,312 tablets toilet soap. 3,181 pounds white soap. 10 tons yellow soap. Tlie heaviest item in the annual consumption is naturally coal, of which 856,764 tons are burned, or almost 1,000 tons for every’ day in tlie year. The consumption of engine oil is 104,- 043 gallons; of burning oils, 23,020 gallons; of paint oil, 9,290 gallons; of waste, 90 tons; of white lend, 51 tons; of rod lead, 12 tons. The aggregate employment of labor by tlie company is 34 captains, 146 officers, 628 engin eers, boilermakers and carpenters, 665 seamen, 916 tiremen, DOO stewards, 62 stewardesses, 42 women to keep the upholstery and linen in order, with 1.100 men as a shore gang, or about 4,500 people to run the ships of one line. The vessels traverse yearly a distance equal to live times that be tween tlie earth and tlie moon.— Al bany Argus, "O, it’s you. eh?" queried Sergeant Bendel! yesterday as lie looked up from his work at the desk and saw Mr. Duu- der before him. “I believe she vhas me.

Illa Terrible Strii*«le with a Pack nt Fe- rocloux Wild Do*«. A stockman in from tlie Wind river range, Wy. T., tolls of a fierce and ex citing battle between a courageous old elk and tlie wild dogs that infest the Wind river region. The river escapes from the mountainsand hills into what is known as the bnsin district over high and beautiful hills mimed the Maiden Hair. While riding near these falls a few days ago, the stockman’s attention win attracted by a deep bay ing. and, at once recognizing tlie sound as coming from savage dogs, and realizing the necessity of getting out of the way. the horseman rode rap idly to tlie top of a neigh lairing hill, which commanded an excellent view of the falls and also of tlie surrounding country. Ho hud scarcely reached the top of the hill wheg he saw, dashing along a high ridge running parallel to the river, a magnifleeiit buck elk,hotly chased by a dozen or more mountain dogs. Tlie race had evidontle been on for some time, for the elk appeared to ho about exhausted and the dogs were not in the best of condition. On swept the pursued and the pursuers, every Ismiid bringing the dogs nearer tlie haunches of tlie tired elk. Suddenly tlie elk changed his course and plunged down the side of tlie ridge, mnkiug straight for the falls. Overhanging the edge of tlie river, and towering di rectly above the pool at tlie foot of the falls, was a huge rock. On this rock tlie bull made his way, and planting himself within a few feet of tlie edge and with loweiisl antlers, awaited the attack. Ho did not have to wait long. The dogs came with a rush and hurled themselves at their prey. First one and then .mother dog was caught in the elk’s antlers and sent howling into the depths below. Just when the tight was tlie hottest the rock, or ledge, upon which the buttle was being fougnt. suddenly gave way. and with a crush tlie combatants were drop|>ed into the water and rocks at the fool of the falls, and their bruised and bleed ing remains were swept on down tlie stream.—NC. Louis Globe-Democrat. I TWO WAYS. CtfOOSK WHICH! There are two usual ways of doing what Na ture sometimes does incompletely, namely, to relieve the bowels. One U to «wallow a drastic purgative which evacuates profusely, abruptly and with pain, the och» r is to take Hostetter s Stomach Bitters, the effect of whkh is not vio lent, but sufficiently thorough, and which does not gripe the intestines. If «he first is selected, the person employing it need not expect perma nent benefit, ano he cannot hope Co escape the debilitating reaction which leaves the organs as bad or worse off than before. If, on the o her hand, he resorts to the Hitters, he can rely upon the restoration of a regular habit of body, consequent upon a renewal of a healta- ful tone in the intestinal caual. Besides health fully relaxing the bowels, the Bitters arouses a dormant liver, imparts a beneficial impetus to the action of the kidneys, and counteracts the early twinges of rheumatism, a tendency to gout, and malaria in all its forms. catarrh CREAM BALM. lianulvM (ultet «niel. «.„ sud piwwviu.

Butin MrotVa KmnlNlon of Cod Liver Oil with Hypophosphites the two are combined, and the effect is wonderful.
