GREAT SHOCK AFFECTS HAIR
Well-Auth«nticat«d Cases of Sudden
> Whitening Over the More Impor
tant Nerve Centers.
There has been some interesting
j correspondence in the Scientific Ameri
can about the possibility of a person's
; hair “turning white over night,” and
; now Elmer <». Still of Livermore,
Cal., contributes a letter from the
viewpoint of a phrenologist. He as
serts that there are many cases on
record in which a great shock to a
specially sensitive emotion was fol
lowed at once by whitening of the
hair just over the region of the
1 bruin in which this emotion is sit-
I uated.
i He cites one case of a man with a
large hump of cautiousness, who was
upset from a sail boat and clung all
| night to its bottom. In the morning
1 his hair had turned grey in two tufts
the size of a half dollar on each side
1 of his head, right over the centers of
j cautiousness.
Another was the case of a woman
w hose hair fell out over the region of
conjugal love while her husband was
undergoing a serious operation. The
hair grew in again, but quite white.
The region of conjugal love is situated
about two inches directly back hori
zontally from the meatus of the ear.
Another is that of a man with a
triangular tuft of white hair just below
the center of the back of the head,
over the region of philoprogenitive- j
ness, or love of children, and on in- !
1 qtiiry Mr. Still found that he was a
man remarkably fond of children.
BELIEVE THEY HOODWINK GOD
Chinese Seemingly Have Little Re
spect for the Intellectuality
of Their Deities.
One of the strangest things about j
! the religion of the Chinese is the rev- j
j erence they hold for their gods, de
; spite the belief that the gods are gul
lible as a man of Inferior intellect.
Instead of attributing Infallibility to
| the deities they worship, as all other
* races have done, the Chinese resort to
i tricks of childish simplicity and are
sure they have deceived the god.
Usually the tricks employed are to
make sure the god does not betray
the sins of a Chinese to the higher
deities. An amazing example is the
treatment of the kitchen god just
before lie is to start on one of his
periodic visits to heaven. This trip
is limited, because the kitchen god
may be absent only seven days.
The householder thinks he must pre
vent the god from reciting his sins to
the deities. So it is the general cus
tom, before the god is to depart on
the seven day’s absence, to prepare
large hollow balls of the god’s favorite
candy. The kitchen deity has a very
small throat. When the candy, of
which he is extremely fond, is placed
before him, the Chinese say the god
stuffs his mouth with it, being too
gluttonous to leave any behind. His
small throat prevents swallowing the
confection, and thus when he appears
before the ruling deities he is unable
to talk, and the householder’s alas
remain a secret.
“Apple-Pie Order."
Few persons take time to trace ex
pressions they use every day. When
a thing is in “apple-pie order,” for
example, you mean, of course, that It
is clean and neat and generally every
thing that it should be. The expres
sion originated under somewhat differ
ent circumstances, observes the New
York Sun.
“Apple-pie order” is an old New
England phrase, and is well grounded
In the blue law's of several centuries
ago. Formerly the New England
housewife did little work on Sunday
and among the many things she didn’t
do was baking. Everything of that
nature was finished Saturday night.
When the baking was done all the
pies and cakes were ranged in a row
on the kitchen shelf. With the flour
still on her hands and apron, the good
housewife would come out with a
smile on her face ready for the Sab
bath. Everything was in "apple-pie
order.”
Birds That Dive.
Aquatic birds that are ordinarily
able to float high on the water can
also sink at will by expelling the air
that is inclosed within the film of
feathers surrounding their bodies, thus
making them heavier than water.
This mechanical trick on the part
of diving birds is probably familiar
to all who have watched the king
fisher at close quarters and have noted
the sudden contraction In the bird’s
apparent size as it takes the plunge.
This is much more easily observed in
the case of the starling, which some
times Imitates the kingfisher by plung
ing into the water. The shrinkage of
the bird is very apparent when, after
hovering above the surface. It turns
downward to dive.
Some One Else’s or Some One’s Else.
The expressions some one else, any
one else, everyone else, somebody else,
etc., are used correctly as substantive
phrases (that is, used as a noun,
serving as subject or object, whether
a single word, phrase or clause) and
have the possessive inflection upon the
else, as some one else’s house. Some
hold these phrases as elliptical ex
pressions (expressions having part
omitted), as. the house ia some one’s
else (that is, other than the person
previously mentioned). Therefore,
either some one else’s or some ene’s
else is correct. However, soma one
else’s is the expression In general u*e
at the present time.
