upon sound the other night, | want, through the
medium OF your paper to have him solve TITS
WHY the faint tones of distant bell arouse the
sleeper oftener than the violent ringing OF one near
by7 The distan, sounds seem to vex the ty1nPa-
mum alnest TO pctuance, and the person cannot be

ceased, while the same membrane Is palsed when
acted upon the clamor OF adjacent Il
cannot be owing to the scundness unsoundness OF
sleep, for my lie is so uniform, and my heath SO
GOOD, that each night my sleep is=regular aud pro-
found, while otIen,mes have been awakened by
the faintest uaduation OF dstantbeil, and otener
have been told in the morning that the TWO bells IN
same street have been ringing during the night IN
rapid alarm, and not aware OF IT,


II tits owing to the sensltiveness OF the organs
the interruption is pleasing that will nos cure
it; ii TO SOME law of sound, the explanation must
be brauiiiul-in either case, Doct LardnerS scien-
