A Curious Discovery.
Boston Herald.
Tlie head of a Danuth public charity, Dr.
Malline Hengen, principal of tho Copen
hagen Inetitntion for the Deaf and Dumb,
him recently made a discovery in pbysiology
which may he attended with exceedingly
important reaulK Dr. Hnnsen has had
under hia charge 130 pupils, 72 boys and 58
girls, and, as a resnlt of careful and long
persisted-in system of examinations, he is
now able to assert that the development of
the human body, during the period of child
hood, is marked by distinct periods of
growth, and does not increase In height
and bulk evenly all through the year. In
order to demonstrate this point, Dr. Han
sen had all of the ohildren under his charge
weighed four times daily, in batches of
twenty; in the morning, before dinner,
coln ' after dinner and nt bedtime, aud each child
was measured once a day. It was fouud
that there were three distinct periods of
increase in the mutter of hnlk, the maxi
mum period extending from August until
December, the period of equipoise lasting
from December until the middle of April,
anil the minimum period extending from
April to August, Tlie increase of bulk or
weight in a child which is retained by it is
all accumulated each year between the
months of August and December. Ftom

she, “and waa in despair at missing you; you have

IIOWTO ARREST DRUNKARDS.
Tlie Peculiar Features or One llranch of a
Policeman's Duties.
Denver Tribune-Ilepublican,
One of the hardest and most frequent duties
which a policeman hasHo perform is that of looking
tother must lunch with ure,—let me see, I be- after drunkard*. In every city of moderate slxe?

am! August. The
u f children shows
the siime divisions into periods, only in a
different order. Thus, a child grows fastor
from April to August, at a time when it is
losing weight, and increases in height less
in the fail months, at a time when it is
gaining in weight. Thus, when the body
works for bulk there is an arrest in its
growth, and when the period for growth
rnmes the working for bulk U suspended.
As auxiliary evidence of this curious law
of nature, Mr. Hnnsen has found, by dai
measurements, that these rules of grow
apply to vegetation as well as to living or
ganisms. He has proved, by a constant
succession of experiments, that with
yonng tree the entire force is ex-
jicnded in lengthening the branches in
he months of April and May, and that
during this time no increase in bulk can be
discovered. In .Tuno and until tho middle
of July, when 4he new twigs bad all been
formed, it has been found that the trunk
absorbs the nonriKhment from tho roots
and bulges out. After ibis comes the peri
od of rest and inactivity, both os to height
and breath. As might be expected, tho
mblication of these facts has excited not a
ittle interest in Europe, and considerable
attention has been turned to the work of
verifying them by trials made in other pub
lic institutions. Should Dr. Hanson’s as
sertions be thus confirmed, the facts will
be of material and practical benefit in every
household where thero are young and grow
ing children.
