The Voice of Niagara.
In an article o.i Niagara Falls, an
I evening paper observes, anent the mighty
roar of its waters: One can never forget
the effect of listening to this might/
voice for the first time, nor is it an un
pleasant sound which assails the car.
Tho roar is positively musical, they say,
and a few years ago a distinguished
American organist spent a long time in
studying it, .and trying to lc-am the meas
ure and compass of its tones. Ho finally
came to tlio conclusion that tho deepest
tone made by tho failing cataract was
that which would bo produced by an
organ pipe about 100 feet in length, and
of pro|>ortionato dimensions as organ pipes
aro made, Now, 100 feet, which is
about tho height of the falls (this varies
from 160 feet to nearly 180 feet!, is much
longer than any organ pipe is mado, and
tho sound emitted by such a pipe would
not be sensible to us as a musical sound.
Therefore our ears could hot apprehend
tho music of the deepest tones; and as
our ears are at fault, we give this deep
tones music such discordant epithets as
noise and roar.
This story, according to ono account,
seems incorrectly stated. Tho organist
in question suggested a sound not nearly
three octaves iiclow thirty-two feet C,
but about F sharp below that note. Tho
present writer tried to define tho vast
harmonic hum of tho great waterfalls,
and carno to the conclusion that tho task
was all hut hopeless, although a steady
kind of tono seems to bo maintained,
and certainly tho imagination might
readily seize upon such a noto os tho au
thority in question named, but-whether
tho indefinite sound could bo described
os of foundation or upper partial tono
character it would bo altogether impossi
ble to say.—London Musical World.

• Unusual Storage of Life.
From tho facts at our command, thero
is evidence that individual storago of lifo
may bo far greater than tho vast ma
jority of pcoplo either expect or hope for.
Tho mean duration of lifo in England
may bo taken at 41 years. But wo havo
instances upon instances in which this
storago of lifo is doubled, and somo in
which it is trebled. I recently had, in
tho consulting room, at tho samo time,
tlireo gentlemen, whoso united ages
reached tho total of 203 years, or over 87
years each, and each with a fair promiso
of from four to five years of lifo at least.
I also, within the present quarter, saw,
on the samo day, two gentlemen, whoso
united ages gavo 180 years, or an aver-
ago of fl3 years each. I havo seen, and
carefully examined physically, a woman
who had attained tho ago of 103 years,
and who Jived afterward for tlireo or
four years; and I onco conducted an au
topsy of a man who had passed liis 03d
year.
Thero was nothing in tho social condi
tion of tho individuals concerned that
could of itself account for sucli an un
usual storago of lifo as that whleh they
presented. Two of those specially re
ferred to were men of tlio highest class
of mental power; tho other lias como
liown from ono of tho oldest of tho tioblo
families of Europo; a fourth lias fought
liis own way from tho lowest position to
one of nflluenco nml power; while the
oldest of all was, from ifrxt to last, in
nbjoct |x>vcrty and was in a workhouse.

Tho Origin of Ideas.
Whilo Capt. (afterward Sir Samuel)
Brown was occupied in studying tho
construction of bridge?, with tho view of
contriving ono of a cheap description to
lio thrown across tho Tweed) near which
ho lived, lie was walking in his garden
ono dewy autumn morning, when ho
saw n tiny spider’s not suspended across
liispnth. Tho idea immediately occurred
to him that n bridge of iron ropes or
chains might ho constructed in like man
ner, and tho result was tho invention of
his suspension bridge. So James Watt,
when consulted about tho modo of car
rying water by pipes under tho Clyde,
along the unequal hod of tho river, turned
his attention ono day to tho shell of n
lobster presented at table, and from that
model he invented an iron tube, which,
when laid down, was found effectually
to answer the purpose. Sir bembert
Brunei tool; liis first lessons in forming
the Thames tunnel from the tiny ship
worm. Ho saw how tho little crea'ura
perforated tho wood with its well armed
head, first in one direction and then in
another, till the archway was complete,
nml then daubed over the roof nnd'sidcs
with a kind of varnish, and by copying
this work exactly on n largo scalo Brunei
was at length enabled to construct his
shield and accomplish liis groat engineer
ing work.—Onco a Week.
