Scientific A tube containing fn "a mixture of trio- thylamine and water exhibits turbidity | at a temperature of 26° CO. Noting this fact, Prof. J. H. Poynting considers that | such tubes may prove useful in indica~ | ting the temperature of fever patients. The latest medical dictum as to smok- ing is that it is a prolific cause of nasel | and nasopharyngeal catarrh; and pro- duces necrosis of the teeth, instead of | preserving them; but is an excellent’ remedy in the incipient stages of insan- ity. Manganese in appreciable quantity has thirty-four samples of wine. Tests also As it can be detected also in nearly every description of rock the above facts go to prove the wide diffusion of this metal throughout nature. Sawdust when used as a substitute for sand in house plastering is alleged to impart very desirable properties to the plaster. It makes the covering for walls light, warm and porous. By its non- conducting qualities it causes the inner surface to retain the heat which sand plaster allows to escape. Mr. Crisp showed at a recent meeting of the Microscopical Society, London, a very curious microscope bearing the dato 1772. Besides possessing other peculi- arities, it had three objectives attached piece in a manner similar to that adopted in the construction of the modern Har- bey and other microscopes. Dry pocket-glue is made of twelve parts of good glue and five parts of sugar. * The glue is boiled until it is en- tirely dissolved, the sugar is then put into the glue, and the maas is evaporated until it hardens on cooling. ILukewarm water melts it vory readily, and it is ex- cellent for nse i firmly, cleanly, any disagreeable " C3 oO lor. if sample of petroleum is dangerous or not has been recommended by a chemist of considerable standing. An ordinary tum- jee is filled two-thirds full with the oil Vhile filling up the remaining one-third ith boiling water a flame is held over the vessel. If the vapor which rises takes fire the test indicates that the pelircleum is not safe to be exposed to the atmos- phere. A a meeting of the Berlin Medical So- ciety lately photographs were shown by Prof. Virchow of the gigantic plane tree the Island of Cos, under the shade of which Hippocrates is said by tradition to bave held medical examinations. The tree stands in the market-place of the town of Cos, on the east mide of the island, and the branches, which spread over nearly the whole area of the market- place, are supported by marble pillars. German experimenters reports that Caucasian petroleum is not a good lubri- cant for machinery. Its properties as an uluaminant, however, are of a higher or- der, and with a suitable burner excellent results should be obtained. The point of ignition is high, and this oil is there. fore munch less liable to give rise to ex- plosions than most other kinds of petro- leum. During combustion the Catcasian variety only slightly carbonizes the wick of a lamp. Ae Prof. Boheibler, of Berlin, has invented a process {or the production of phosphor- ic acid irom the slag made in the Thomas | (iilehrist method. Theslag, having been | roasted in an oxidizing flame, is pulver.’ ized and sifted. The powder is dissolved’ in hydrochloric acid, and the solution saturated with lime-water. The resulting product contains from 85 to 87 per cent. of phosphoric acid in the form of bibasis’ phosphate of lime, and a second ronsting’ yields a substance in which the content of phosphoric acid is as high ss 45 per cent. i A description is given in the Eaglish! Mechanie of what appears to be a novel electric bell, a oylinder of brass, inside which the line wire can be coiled by turning a little winch handle, and the gong is carried ei! one end of the brass case, serving as a, cover for the magnet, etc. The onse is’ provided with legs, so that the arrange. ment can be placed in a horizontal posi.! tion, and there is also a ring, which en. ables it to be suspended wherever it may be desired. The outside dimensions of the whole apparatus aro six inches by four inches, One of the best electric light systems was recently introduced into the Court Theatre at Stuttgart. Quite unexpectedly the orchestra immediately showed signs that they disapproved of the new means of illumination, and they have petitioned the management to restore the old oil lumps. The orchestra state that the brillinney of the electric lights has an un- pleasant effect up the nerves, and that it has become difficult to follow the baton of the conductor. To ascertain whether there may not be something substantial in these alleged grievances a committee of oculists and disinterested musicians have been officially appointed. “000 yar Is of best culicoes ; all styles — Germans, | LUITO-PLAYEKRS AND DREAMS, | sm— Lotto-players rely on chance ciroum- | s'ances, omens, sod dreams for the num- He bers they desire to play.

The vault | is located by the mide of the large old. On the floor ad-| ore | this entrance was obtained to the hiding place. Inside the wvanlt are plain evi. derces of a former staircase extonding a smnall enclosed space on apother side of the chimney. This place, which is now plastered op, is supposed to have heen a sort of a closet. Whether Arnold used the vault for secreting Tories or the patriots, built it to afford a retreat for himself, no one knows That it should have remained undiscovered until Mr led to its construction. a — I...

A! jten o'clock he is expected to begin i elenning up the Nght and putting things jin order for the ensuing night. In some of the large light-houses four keepers are employed. When the light-house is 'on some reef, surrounded by deep water, the lonely keepers ave often worried with a feney that the foundations are erumb- ling beneath them. This is more apt to be the case during the prevalence of a heavy storm, when the furions gusts of wind seem to make the tower rock. The men oan ocoasionally obtain a fow days’ leave of absence. The keepars are paid in proportion to the importanceof the lights, and the amount of labor required. Their wages range from twenty-five dollars a moath upward, and they are also sup- plied with food. hy —————— You will notice the reformed drunkard or the newly converted sinner, notwith- standing be pretends to bo ashamed of his past career, never knows when to leave off bragging over it.
