Influence of Heat on the Human Body.

DR.. Craig, of the Medical Service Of
the United States army, prosecuted
some experiments during the hot sum-
mer of 1870, as published in the Ameri-
can Journal Of Science in reference to the
influence Of external physical conditions
upon the temperature of the human
body. The highest bodily temperature
observed by him during that time was
99.70 T. He states that below 99' he
did not feel uncomfortably hot; but
when 9920 was reached, then the sensa-
ton Of suffering from heat came on.
BY the prolonged use of the shower
bath he was able to reduce his tempera-
ture to 97.70 in the hottest weather,
which constituted avery great ameliora-
ton of his sensations. lie concluded
that the discomfort we feel in hot
weather is not from the heat on the
surface, but from the secondary effect
Of heating the whole body. Should the
internal heat of the body be raised
above 1902, he thinks that apoplexy and
sun stroke would be quite likely to SUI
pervene. Judging from some expert
ments recorded elsewhere, DR.. Craig
thinks that a reduction of the tempera-
ture as low as $50 F., by external appli-
cations of cold, is as great as it is safe
to venture upon.

Cencaye and Convex Mirrors.

The German journals speak with APP.
proval of the invention of Nesmith, of
Manchester, for the ready preparation
of concave and convex mirrors, which
usually constitutes an expensive and
tedious branch of the glass mannfao-
turer's art. For thi. purpose a flat plate
Of glass, about forty inches in diameter
and three-sixteenths of an inch thick,
is first cemented to an iron mould, hol.
lowed out hemispherically. BY means
of tube attached TO this mould all the
air can be removed from the hollow
space beneath the glass. The simple
act of sucking away the air by means of
the mouth will cause the disk to bend
under the pressure of the external air,
so as to acquire concavity in the mid
die of hree-fourths of an inch. If air
be blown into the cavity, on the other
hand, the plate becomes convex. 1t is
expected that the process can be made
so perfect as to render the convexity
uniform for two plates, and filled with
some strongly refracting liquid, will
serve the purpose of cheap and power
full lens. Indeed, an inventor in Balti-
more has realized this expectation, and
succeeded in producing lenses of great
power and unusual cheapness.

Great Destruction of Cattle i'm Texas

The present winter has been an un.
usually hard one in some of the West
ern and Southwestern States. In Texas,
east of the Nueces, not less than 35 to
40 per cent. Of the cattle have persisted
from the deep SHOWS and driving sleet.
Within five miles of Kennedy's Ferry,
two miles above Nuecestown, between
four and five thousand head OF cattle
have been skinned, the only use that
could be made OF their carcasses. West
Of the Nueces the loss sustained has
also been severe. This is terrible blow
to the stock. raising interest in Texas,
the effect Of which must be felt for a
long while.

Tricks OF Wedding Present Givers.

A New York letter to the Utica Ob-
server has the following:
1t is said Of weddings, that an ingej
NOUS method of making bridal presents
has been discovered, and one fair bride,
at least, has been enlightened regard.
ing "the tricks and the manners" of
wedding guests. A newly made wife,
having had a multiplicity of SAVERS
given her on her wedding day, claimed
the privilege usually accorded the re-
cipient of such favors of exchanging
whatever duplicates she might possess
for something Of which she stood in
greater need. With this end in view
she repaired to Tiffany's one day with
duplicate salver and made known her
wish to exchange it. What was her sur
prise, however, TO zee the shopman
glance suspiciously at the article and
deny that it had ever been purchased at
that establishment.
Where did it come from, then?"
the lady somewhat Indignantly asked.
+" Doubtless from some dollar store,
madam" was the candid reply.
1t was in vain the lady asserted that
such could not be the case in vain that
she called the shopmans attention to
the elegant case bearing Titfany's own
trade mark.
THAT makes no difference, madam"
was the reply. "There is a great de-
mand for our empty cases this season
and this is probably the use to which
they were put. A salver like that can
be purchased for few dollars on any of
the avenues; whereas, were it the
genuine article, it would cost hun
dred, and the donor fancies he has had
the credit of bona tide gift, if it is sent
in one of our cases.
The bride probably left Tifany's
sadder and wiser woman, and it is
equally probable that another 1" wedding
guest was shortly made to beat his
breast with modification and chagrin.

A Queer Family.

In Boone county, Kentucky, there is
family whose singular manner Of
living, and other peculiarities, excite
general interest. The head of the fam
lily is native of Scotland, an educated
man, we'll read, and of fine converse
tional powers. He. does nothing for the
support of his family, and, although
they are in an almost starving condi-
ton, is devotinc his time to the study
of the Greek language. While he is
thus engaged they are living in miser-
able hut without floor or windows, and
with scarcely food enough to keep them
from starving. The woman has neither
education nor sense in fact, the only
thing she has worth speaking of is fits.
She gives the family what attention it
gets, and prepares the food sent them
by neighbors, while her husband is en-
gagged in his classical studies, or in prowl.
ing about the eighborhood, reading es.
says to his acquaintance. People sup.
pose that be is crazy, and in the spring
an effort will be made to provide in some
way for him and his helpless family.

Russian Peasant Huts.

Nothing drearier can be imagined
than these log huts, with roof OF
boards and often but single window
which seem dropped without the least
order upon the bare plain. Though
sometimes miles from any town, they
had often no apparent shopo any kind,
nor street, nor winding path, nor tree,
nor shrub, nor window flower to relieve
the hard monotony. The poorest High
land Smelling has its eorse and heather
and its mountain setting; for the Irish
cot there is the little garden and the
encircling green; over the mud hut of
the Egyptian the palra waves its plumes;
but neither nature or art cheers these
mean abodes which subserve only the
rudest necessities Of existence. Enter
them, and you see but a few clumsy ar
ticies Of furniture OF the peasants own
manufacture, with nothing to raise the
thoughts above groveling cares but the
little picture of the Madonna, or some
patron saint, hung high in the farthest
corner of the room, before which lamp
is suspended, and kept, if possible, al
ways burning, and to which all the
events of the humble household are
made known. Yet as the prison cap
tive finds q world of delight in the un-
folding of the tiny flower or the weav-
ing Of spiders web, so, doubtless,
even here the loving human heart sees
much TO make life sweet and desirable.

Fatal ARRAY near Independence, Mo.

The Kansas City Times states that
George Webb shot and killed James
Aid, and wounded David Hamilton, on
Saturday last, in an ARRAY at Salem
Church, five miles from Independence,
Mo. 1t appears that little family feud
existed between Webb and Aids fami.
lies, and, as both parties belonged to
the same Baptist Church, an effort was
made to settle the difficulty within and
through the influence of the Church.
With this view, meeting of the respec-
tive friends was held on Saturday, and,
while efforts were being made to heal
the differences between Aid and Webb,
a few angry words were spoken, where.
upon Webb shot and wounded one OF
the Aid brothers. In an attempt to
stop the fight, David Hamilton was
wounded and Webb killed, the latter
receiving seven bullets in his body.
James Aid and Daniel Hamilton were
arrested, and warrants were issued for
other parties.
