The bioscope is proving itself to be an instrument of some value in scientific investigation. At Washington cer'ain scientists have made a series of ins.antaneous microphotographs of growing ‘cry- stals, their object being to deter- mine the manner in which crystall- ization begins. With high microscopic powers some observers have thought that they could detect the formation of minute globules imme iiately pre- ceding the appearance of crystal forms. But the new bioscopic pictures of forming and growing crystals show only crystalline shapes from the be- ginning. They also reveal the fact that the growth in diameter in the first second of a crystal’s existence is vastly more rapid than during the subsequent period, aad it is thought that this swift growth at the start is the cause of a lack of definition which deceives the eye, but not the photographic film. Transparent Eels. There are not very many trans- parent animals, but 1 scent studies of two larval eels which possess this peculiarity, and which belong to the National Museum, seem to show that among the possible advantages of being transrarent is economy in personal decoration. In ordinary opaque animals the color markings are symmetrical on the two sides of the body, but this is not the case with the transparent eels. Each of them, who looked at from one side, appears to have seven large black spots arranged at nearly regular intervals along the length of the body, but closer examination shows that in each case three of the spots are on the left-side and foun on the right, and irregularly spaced, but in’ such a manner that on look- ing through the body, all seven ap= pear in a symmetrical row.
