When distant objects appear to be un-
usually near rain may be looked for,
because when the air has nearly reached
saturation there is a cessation of those
vapor movements by which the air is
rendered in some degree obscure. Sir
Isaac Newton observed that the stars
seemed nearer and better adapted for
observation in the clear intervals of
rain, or between showers, than at any
other time.

"Last year." says the Iron, 'the out
put of coal in Great Britain and Ireland
was 1872, 900, 900 tons. A cubic mile is
equal to 147, 1913, 600, 900 cubic feet, and
allowing PCT cubic feet of coal in the
solid to weigh a ton, we have 5,000,U00,-
900 tons Of coal in q cubic mile, and this
is q greater weight than has yet been
raised in the British Islands. Accord.
ing to the most trustworthy statistics,
the end of 1878 will just complete the
first cubic mile of coal, exclusive aof
waste in mining.

MI. Darwin has carried out a series Of
successful experiments to test the ques-
ton whether ~carnivorous plants really
benefit by the insects they capture and
kill. About two hundred plants of
Drosera rotunditolia were cultivated in
plates during most of last summer. One
half of them were regularly fed with
roast meat, and the other were left to
care for themselves. At the end Of the
season it was found that the plants
which had been supplied with meat
weighed 21.5 per cent. more than the
others, and that their fower-stems,
seeds, and capsules were p times
heavier, and the seeds weighed ! times
more than the unfed LEI This seems
conclusive that the plants do assimilate
the insects that they capture, and that
this variety of vegetables can be regu-.
larly fattened for the market.
