People who are quite deaf cannot enjoy wireless at the present time, but science is making suoh rapid strides that it seems likely that this difficulty will soon be overcome; and that those who are permanetly deaf may, after practice,be able to receive wireless messages by tasting them 'With the tongue. • At least, that is what a number of scientists are miming at just now. These scientists employ an ordinary wireless receiver containing three valves, and in place of the usual head e phones or loud -speaker theytwo have suitably -shaped pieces of silver or cop - Per, which are separated from each other py, matins of a strip of, ebonite. These are placed in the mouth of a deaf person. so that they rest comfort ably over the tongue. A spark transmitting apparatus was used, and each dot or dash sent out by wireless excited a strong metallic taste in the tmoigth of the deaf person. This is easily understandable, because, instead df the ieceive'd signals being: made to 'actuate a pair of.headphones or a loud -speaker, they were Passed onto the ,insulated silver plates. in :the. mouth of tlile'deaf Vinson, an'd each im pulse of current made Its presea ce known -by Meats of a characteristic taste.

' How is it that more people do not take up as a hobby the collecting of music? Many -people collect books, pictures, and stamps, with a view to retaining these against all time. Not many do this with music. Why not start collecting classical music, songs of good quality, and dance pieces— both old and new publications, and also old scores? Think how Interesting to present- day dance lovers would be a series of bound' volumes of the dance music game 1900 to the present day, .:The idea could, be carried further ' and periods could be particularized in when dances are held. As an example, what could be called "the 1906 dance" couldbe glventwhen every item should consist of dance music in 1906. Then again think how useful such collections of music would be to our children and their children. Standard pieces of music such as we all as children have to learn, would always be in the music cabinet. Pamela could see when she was learning a Grieg sonata just where her mother had dif- ficulty by the marking on the page. Such collections of music would be eyeeedingly valuable -es valuable as any libraries. Cotton materials .. with the appear- ance and feel of wool are being made in Germany.
