MUs1CAL SALTS,—Laughter is the harmony that silences the dissonance of care. Humor has done much where medicine has failed. It has been satisfactorily demonstrated that music may be used as medicine. Music attacks the uervous system directly re- acting and rousing where physic and change of air can neither reach nor rouse. The vibrations of sound induce a sympathetic yibration on every nerve in the body, The cause is found to the fact that the auditory nerve is closely connected with the great ner- vous system, Half of our diseases come from disordered nerves, stag- nation of the emotional life or the fati- gue of overwrought emotion. .The ruin of life is ill regulated emotion which makes, unhappiness, checks en. terprise and spoils success, The Greeks understood how sound regulated emotion for not a procession, soctal gathering, gymnasium or important oration was thought complete without music. Music will bring into harmony this disordered emotion for music is harmony and harmony is the Music of repose. This recalls to us the most perilops condition of our modern life, the lack of repose and harmony. Consider the repose in Nature. You can perceive it in the rising and setting of the King of Day and in the forest depths of woodland music. 'I'he sound of falling waters and the gentle mur- mur of a bidden brook will fill you with a grateful sense of repose, a serenity surpassing words. The music of Nature in this harmony appeals not only to the eye and ear but to that mysterious part of the man called the soul. The soul feels tbe repose of the lofty mountains as they meditate in cloudy silence, of the winds bellowing through the lofty pines, and the low voice of the waters chanting a vesper to the evening star. Let us tune our lives more to the music of Nature and rejoice in this sweet repose, There is repose not only in the harmony of Nature but in the music of man. An observant physician speaking of it as a theraputic adjunct says "melancholia, insomnia, hysteria, business reverses, delirium, pain and fatigue are helped by the beneficent influence of music." When the bells of the spirit of man are jangled out of tune let us make "undying music" in the world and restore harmony and repose to the growing life of man, E. F. A, Vt.
