WHY ONE'S TEETH "CHATTER" I HOW ONION AFFECTS EYES
Certain Set of Muscles, Affected by the
Cold, Get to Work, Irrespective
of Will.
The little muscles which closo the
Jaw tire acted upon by the cold In such
n way that" they pull the Jaw up nntl
then let It full by Its own weight.
This, repented many times, causes
the teeth to click together and produce
what we know ns "chattering."
We think of It In connection with
our teeth because It is the teeth which
make the sound, but the cause '.ies In
the muscles which' we use In chewing
or In opening our mouth when we
hpeak.
The chattering occurs In spite of the
will or hrnln. We have little control
over It, and can stop It only by clench
ing Iho teeth. It Is rcnlly a mild va
riety of spasm caused by the cold,
which acts on the jaw muscles In much
the same way that some poisons pro
duce muscular spasms which cannot
be controlled.

IN BEHALF OF DISABLED MEN
"Gas" Given Off Causes Smarting and
the Organ Hastens to Take Relief
Measures.
The "gas" given oft by n freshly
peeled onion makes Itself apparent In
two ways by a strong aroma which
Is at once apparent to the sense of
smell, and by a" smarting of the eye
halls, which, being very sensitive, aro
hurt by this substance to which they,
are not accustomed.
The nerves of the eye immediately
signal the hrnln to turn on the tears
or liquid which' Is secreted by the body
us a natural eye-wash. This, flowing
over the eyeball, forms n curtain which
prevents the onion "gas" from coming
In direct contact with the nerves und
thus Injuring them.
Tears aro present In the eye at nil
times. When we wink, u tiny drop of
the tcnr-llnuld Is smeared across the
ball of the eye and washes off pnr
tlcles of dust which may have accum
ulated. But when this liquid Is pro
duced so rapidly that It cannot hb
carried off by the trough at the lower
part of the eye, the tears overflow and
run down the face.
Not for Him.

pears."
