    CAMERA FOR INSECTS.
Hon to Adjust the Photographic Ap
paratus and the Proper Method
of Ktponare.
On the top of a tripod or camera
stand may be fixed a double, board,
hinged so that it will turn up at right
angles with its base as in the accom
panying sketch, and supported 6y a
side rod or slotted bar. It will be seen
that if the camera is screwed to the up
right board, the lens will point down
ward to the ground. It is obvious that
if anything is placed on the floor, by
using the camera in this position the
object can be very readily seen on the
ground glass of the instrument. Hooks,
manuscripts and sueli like things that
are difficult to fix up can thus be very
easily copied, and with a great saving
of time. The size does not matter. One
has only to lengthen or reduce the dis
tance between the object and the lens
to get the necessary reduction; but it
is not for this purpose that 1 now de
scribe an arrangement 1 have success
fully used for some years in photo
graphing insects, such as butterflies,
beetles, or shells, leaves, single flowers,
etc. Much time can be saved, as one
has <jnly to place the object on some
suitable support and photograph. Some
people may inquire about the shadow,
as it often mars the beauty of the photo
graph, though sometimes it adds very
materially to its relief. To obviate this
I place my object on a sheet of clear
Jypgp

glass with a piece of white or colored
paper, as the subject may require, at
such a distance as to cast no visible
shadow. That is to say, the shadow is
lost before it reaches the paper. By
this means one gets a negative, of the 1
object only. Some subjects look better
on a clear ground, then use a sheet of
white paper. For tinted ground, a
gray; and for black ground, a dull
chocolate paper will be found the best,
as it seems to have the least reflection
and absorbs the light better than black.
Such butterflies as the common and
marble whites, small blues, etc., look
better on a dark ground, whereas near- |
ly all the others show better on a clear
ground. The same remarks will apply
to other insects. In making a series
of photographs of butterflies, they
should all bear the same relative pro
portion to one another, as in nature,
and not be the same size. To obtain
this, they should be taken with the
same extension of the camera, anil the
same distance between the object and
the lens. By working on these lines
one can obtain a set of photographs
that are perfectly accurate in size, with
relation to one another. I have not
said anything about the method of ex
posure. This is the crux. If one's sub
ject is not properly lighted and exposed
we do not get a negative worth print
ing. I would at once say that if one
has the opportunity, there is nothing
like daylight; but it is not everyone
who can spare the time to work in the
light of day. Further, many days dur
ing the winter months are not tit for
such work, so it is best to use mag
nesium ribbon, as its photographic
value is nearer to daylight than any
thing else. With seven inches of the
ribbon, and a rapid, thickly coated
plate, one will find it easy to get a good
negative, full of detail, and gradation
of light and shade. The best developer
to use is pyro-soda. For the formulae,
see any of the photographic text
books. I need scarcely remark that
any printing paper may be used, pref
erably those of the gelatino-eliloride
type, as they give a brighter image.—

The average time taken for each

tjhiss ns Piping; -Material.
Glass pipes are now coining into use
for tin; conveyance of water, oil. gas,
sewage, etc. The chief advantage
claimed for glass as a pipe material are
that it does not rust as metal does, and
being a nonconductor of electricity it
is corroded by leaking currents of elec
tricity from street, railways, electric
light plants or other sources.
Telephone for the Deaf.
A miniature telephone to take the
place of the ear trumpet for deaf peo
ple has made its appearance. A tiny
receiver is placed in the passage of the
ear and connected by fine wires with
a transmitter worn on the breast and a
battery carried in the pocket or other
convenient part of the dress.

uriN Im Produced.
At a recent conversazione of the
Royal society, says the London Graphic,
a curious exhibit was shown by i'rof.
Arthur Thomson, namely, a model to
illustrate how natural curlincss of hair
is produced. According to the explana
tion three factors require consideration
in the production of curly hair: (1)
The hair shaft; (2) the hair muscle,
and (3) the sebaceous gland. Straight
hair is always circular on section, and
is usually thicker than curly hair,
which is ribbonlike and fine. In order
that the muscle may act as an erector
of the hair it is requisite that the shaft
Ttr\
HOW HAIR CURLSNATtIiALLY.
of the hair imbedded in the skin should
be sufficiently strong to resist any ten
dency to bend; unless this be so the
leverlike action necessary to produce
its erection is destroyed. When the
hair is fine and ribbonlike the shaft ia
not sufficiently stout to resist the strain
of the muscle and naturally assumes a
curve, the degree of curvature depend
ing on the development of the muscle,
the resistance of the hair and the size
of the sebaceous gland. The curve thus
produced becomes permanent and af
fects the follicle in which the hair is
developed, the softer cells at the root
of the hair becoming more horny as
they advance toward the surface, retain
the form of the follicle; the cells on the
concave side of the hair being more
compressed than those on the convex
side. In this way the hair retains the
form of the follicle after it has escaped
from it.

Two brothers, aged respectively 28
and 22 years, were driving together
near Chester in a dogcart during a
thunderstorm. They were apparently
struck by lightning and seem to have
fallen simultaneously out of the back
of the vehicle, for they were found
about five minutes after the flash lying
side by side on the road with the seat
of the dogcart under their legs and the
driving apron over them. 1 arrived
from ten to fifteen minutes afterward
and found them both quite dead; the
bodies were lying in the road in the
same position as they were found. The
elder brother had no external sign of
injury. The younger brother present
ed the following appearances: The
epidermis was burned over the chest
and abdomen, not continuously, but in
a number of circular holes from one
sixteenth of an inch to a quarter of an
inch in diameter. The metallic collar
sttid was fused and Ihe skin beneath
was deeply burned. The back from the
neck to the buttocks was burned, but
less severely than in front. The vest
and shirt were charred, but the waist
coat and coat were uninjured. The
woolen drawers and trousers had a hole
burned in them about about two inches
in diameter corresponding to a burn
on the right buttock. On the occiput
there was a contused scalp wound evi
dently due to the fall from the ve
hicle. There were no other injuries
nor were any of the clothes torn off
either of the bodies.
There was still no rigor mortis an
hour and a half after death. His watch
was going and seems not to have been
magnetized, as it has kept good time
since. The cloth of the cushion on
which the younger brother sat. was
burned on its outer surface, but the
wooden seat beneath was uninjured.
The tailboard of the dogcart has the
paint slightly singed immediately be
hind the younger brother's seat, otner
wisc the vehicle bears no traces of the
■lightning. It was very wet from the
rain. No one else was in the cart be
sides the two brothers. The horse was
uninjured and trotted home of its own
accord. The road also bore lie tr*ieesof

TREATMENT FOR IDIOCY.
Thyroid Kxtrnet HUM Jimt Heen Pro
nounced mi Almost Infallible
Care l'or Cretinism.
Cretinism is a form of idiocy caused
by the lack of part of the thyroid gland.
It is a form of goitre. Many children
have it. The moment the thyroid secre
tion stops forming the development of
the child stops short. If, for instance,
the child had advanced to the age of
seven and then failed of its thyroid, it
would go through life as a seven-year
old child as far as brain development is
concerned. There is an opposite condi
tion brought about when too much
thyroid secretion is deposited. \\'<s
know it then as exopthalmie goitre. A
person with this malady is the opposite
of the idiot that is, intensely active
and alert, supersensitive in all things,
the antithesis of dullness, as it were.
Exopthalmie goitre can be cured by
removing part of the thyroid gland
from the throat; cretinism can be
cured, or rather held in check, by ad
ministering thyroid extract to the
idiot. If a child is taken young and
properly doctored with thyroid extract
it will goon developing just 'ike smy
normal child. But if the administering
of the extract should be stopped sud
denly. the youngster would relapse into
its former idiotic state, or, at any ruto,
•toy oft v, hare it was.

"GOING TO BUY A BUGGY."
Mm iKice Uutten Out of the Wily—
Typical Story of a Jiebruhku
Fa niter'* Experience.
A few years ago hard times made
the Western farmer deny himself
everything save the barest necessities
of life. Then came the great crop
year of I*'.» 7 and with it a story.
A Nebraska farmer carried a mort
gage of $4, -00 011 his property, and it
was a burden hard to contend with.
The wheat crop in 'O7 was enormous
and prices were high. He appeared
at the bank shortly after harvest,
pulled out $4,000 and asked for a loan
of S2OO to enable him to cancel the
mortgage note. The banker, who held
the note, urged him not to bother about
it, but go and buy cattle with his
$4,000, feed |iis corn crop and in that
way get the maxirniftn for his product.
"No, sir," replied the farmer, "I want
to pay that note now. Then when I
harvest the corn crop I'm goin' to pay
you back that S2OO I just borrowed,
and then do you know what I'm going
to do?" and his honest face beamed all
over with pleasure. "I'm going to buy
a buggy!" This little incident tells the
story of thousands of others out in
Nebraska, and the fact that during the
past six months one concern in Chicago
shipped to one firm in Omaha alone one
hundred and thirty carloads of buggies
and carriages,averaging about. 22 to the
ear. makes it very evident that prosper
ity is with Nebraska. It is a wonderful
state with great resources, and the
crops of the past few years have put
Nebraska farmers in an enviable posi
tion.
GETTING A DINNER.
Hon- Two Sehemlnir llaseal* Vic
timized a SI ran lie ron the
t'ariH Ilonlevard.
The other day a rather amusing
scene was witnessed on a l'aris boule
vard. Two friends of rather excitable
temperament perceived quietly sitting
at the foot of a table in front of a cafe
an enormous dog. with a head, teeth
and claws that would have done credit
to a lion.
"Well," said one of them, "the owner
of that creature need be afraid of no
body with such a protector."
"What, that dog!" said the other.
"Why, he wouldn't move a paw."
The dispute grew warm, and the first
peaker emphatically declared:
"I bet a dinner that you won't ven
ire to touch its master!"
"Not venture, indeed! You shall soon
see!" was the quick rejoinder.
So saying, the latter dealt a box on
the ears of a gentleman who was drink
ing a glass of beer at the table where
the dog sat.
The gentleman littered a loud cry and
rushed upon his assailant; the dog re
mained impassive. An explanation fol
lowed, and the injured gentleman was
informed of the wager in question.
"But the dog isn't mine," he howled,
in a tremendous passion.
An hour later, however, you might
have observed through the windows oi
a famous restaurant a little distance
away three jovial guests sitting before
a sumptuously spread table, and dis
cussing the merits of several bottles
of old wine. They were the bettors and
their victim.—Tit-Bits.
Chart ren.se.
More than 40 plants enter into the
composition of the liqueur, chartreuse.
The principal one is balm (meiissa offi
cinalis), of which from 250 to 500
grammes are present in 100 litres; hys
sop in flower, peppermint, Aipinegen
epi (artcmisia glacialis), the seeds and
roots of angelica, of each from 125 to 250
grammes; then, in smaller quantities,
varying from 15 to !i0 grammes, arnica
flowers, thyme, balsamite, the buds of
the poplar blossom (populus balsamea),
Chinese cinnamon, mace, coriander,
aloes, cardamoms, etc. Moreover, each
100 litres contains an aleoliolate in
which are present, with "majolaine"
clove pinks and lavender, four kinds of
pepper (long, Jamaica, cubeb and culi
nary), pine resin, treacle, hyacinth, bal
sam of nutmeg, kneaded together in
Malaga wine. A hundred litres of the
liqueur contain about 2,600 grammes of
this mixture, and the cost of prepara
tion scarcely exceeds eight francs. The
quality and age of the alcohol used in
the manufacture are the principal fea
ture. —N. V. Home Journal.

WATERING TREES.

Very Simple Hut lillcetlvc In
Every Inntuuce.
In transplanting trees, success de
pends largely upon the water supply.
Most trees do the major part of their
growing in the springtime. After the
middle of summer practically all wood
growth ceases, and the balance of the
year is devoted to hardening up the
wood to withstand the cold of winter,
so that the wood growth of trees de
pends largely upon the kind of spring
and June weather encountered. If the
spring is a backward one, and a May or
June drought ensues, even though
slight, no matter how splendid the
growing weather of the latter part of
summer and fall may be, the wood
growth of trees will be light. There
iP/ ill^
HOW TO WATER TREES.
fore it is well to irrigate transplanted
trees.
In watering plants of any kind a
large proportion of the moisture ap
plied is lost by evaporation. A very
simple method for sub-irrigation of
trees is shown in the cut. Take four
pieces of eight or ten-inch board, two
feet long, and nail them together into
a simple, four-sided box without ends.
Set this in the ground at the base of
the tree and let the top project above
ground three or four inches. Throw
some coarse grass or trash into the bot
tom of the box, and a pailful of water
can occasionally be poured into the
box and allowed to soak into the earth
gradually. In this way no water will
be wasted and the surface soil can be
kept finely pulverized and conserve the
moisture down at the roots. This meth
od of watering is especially practicable
for transplanted trees, because their
roots are all in a small compass and
have not yet spread out the height of
the tree, as will be the case later. A
large tile forms an ideal box of this
kind. Soapsuds or waste water of any
kind can be used to good advantage in
this manner.—Guy E. Mitchell, in

Feeil ami Pork Flavor.
There is a vast difference in the qual
ity of pork. Some is sweet, tender and
juicy. Some is directly the reverse.
Feed is largely responsible for this
difference, says the Epitomist. In ex
periments, conducted for the purpose
of determining the influence of food on
the quality of pork, it has been found
that milk, corn, barley, oats and peas
produce the most solid and best-fla
vored meat. I'otatoes produce a soft
pork. By-products of the flour mill
make an inferior pork. Oil meals pro
duce pork that is oily and of poor flavor.
The meat, made from feeding beans is
without flavor, and hard and indigesti
ble. Acorns do not make good pork.

It is reported that a Swedish in- '

the butter is produced from the cream,

milk, separating the cream and <;on
