When will the doctors abandon the
absurd old practice of writing their
prescriptions in Latin? 1t is apretenti-
GUS relic Of the dark ages in which it was
sought to envelop the physicians call
ing in mystery; and to this end not
even n little pure water could be order
ed by its proper name, but it must be
written aqua Jont." 1t may be a poor
excuse for the mistakes sometimes
made by druggists clerks, but in
pronouncing on such a case rs this one
which has just happened at Providence
this antiquated and ridiculous practice
is properly to be considered.
A youth in the employ of a Providence
apothecary put up wine of opium for
the rinim port indicated on a physi-
clans prescription, and a child was
nearly dosed to death in consequence.
If the prescription in plain English had
called for port wine it is not likely that
the perilous blunder would have hap
pened.

The shah,s Krupp Cannon.

The Shah of Persia one day expressed
u longing for a Krupp cannon In the
presence of the Russian Minister, who
at once informed the Car of the Shah's
desire. The Car, who was anxious to
crafty the Shah, by return mail, rs it
were, sent m of the monster cannon
"a 300-pounder-to his ally. The
present was landed at Enzili, on the
Caspian Sea, but it took n months
labor by a regiment of the Persian
army to get tho cannon to Teheran.
Arriving there a day was appointed to
fire it. The court and almost the en-
tire population of the city assembled.
Bang! went the cannon, away scamp
cred half the multitude, and down
tumbled the minaret off one of the city
gates, near which the gun had been
placed. But there was another disaster.
In m hours time q messenger arrived
from a village five miles away, and re-
ported that its inhabitants were be-
wailing the loss of their mosque. The
cannon-ball from the cannon had struck
the building and ruined it. The shah
was so dismayed by the effect that he
never permitted the cannon to be fired
again.

Mars Moons and the zodiaeal Mgat.

The following is a part of a CONVEX
sation about the moons of Mars with
Professor Watson, of the Ann Arhor
observatory
RI understand you have a notion
that these moo have a very recent
origin, and consequently could not have
been visible until lately.
W.-(Cautiously)-It may be SO.
Ron what grounds do you incline
to that view,
WI have observed Mars pretty
closely for twenty years, and I have
seen a sort of nebulosity or halo-bur
about the planet that ! could not think
belonged to its body; and have noticed
that it seems much less distinct at this
opposition than previously.
R.-What connection exists between
this nebulosity and the moons?
W.-Thesatellites may be composed
of this nebulous matter.
R.-Then you make the moons of
very recent formation?
W.-Yes; but it is only a theory.

The Duke of Brunswrek's M%ausoleum

The Duke of Brunswick, who died n
of considerable wealth in diamonds and
other precious stones. His collection
was for some time in this country.
In a modest house, at st. Johns Wood,
q burglar and fireproof room was built,
in which it was kept; but the owner,
growing, perhaps, tired of the monot-
ony of English society; removed to
Paris some years before his death, and
took with him to that paradise of Yam
KEGS the whole of his mineral and other
possessions.
These, along with other property of
immense value, he bequcathed to the
city of Geneva, and the municipality,
after mature consideration of the most
appropriate manner in which to record
their gratitude, have resolved to erect
a mausOleum to the memory of their
benefactor which shall he without n
parallel in Europe. The monument is
to be placed in the Jardin DIES Alpes,
and it is TO cost 1,400,0 900 francs, or
S240,000. The design includes 4 series
of six statues, representing ancestors of
the deceased Duke. The first is to be
Duke Henry ''the lion,'' and the last
that of Duke Frederick William. who

Immediately preceded the defeat of the
French at Waterloo. On 4 colossal
pedestal of polished granite, sixty feet
in height, will rest the sarcopagus, on
which will be n recumbent figure of the
prince, and over this will be a canopy
to he surmounted by an equestrian
statue of the late duke in modern civil
costume. The canopy is to be supported
by pillars of white marble richly sculp-
tured.
The artist selected for carrying out
this grand design is NJ. France, n citi-
zen of Geneva. The statue is to he by

satellites may have been If 1t
becomes certain that they have been
registered, then il is interesting to
inquire whether they have, meanwhile,
increased in size and brightness.

board, between Bombay and Alden, on

expedition. L was, of course, familiar
with Jones observations on the zodiacal
light, in the japanese exploring eNpedi-
tion: and while ! conceded to him the
credit of being a careful observer, | had
never given much credit to his con-
illusions. When in Chinese waters, just
where he had claimed to see the Zodia-
cal light spanning the skies, | looked
for the same phenomenon, and looked
for it carefully, Int in vain; | saw moth
ing to substantiate or throw light upon
this theory. But in the Indian ocean.

Professor Watson discountenanced
the opinion that the zodiacal light was
a ring of matter revolving around the
sun; for, if it were, since it extends far
beyond the orbits of Mercury and
Venus, it would play the mischief with
those bodies. Although somewhat

to diminish the light Of stars shining
through to the extent of fully M
magnitude. He judged it to reyolve
$1,000 or 20, 900 miles from the earth.
