annual subsidy was 100000, and in
return FOR this the publisher was ex-

the Fost Office Department without
prejudice to his further privilege Of
making private sales. The price Of
the annual guide was 81 giving

Scientific Miscellany.

Experiments in THO artificial color
ing of the corolla of flowers have been
for some time conducted by Prof. Sachar-
do, Of Padua. The ;;ao6 is NOT new but
the methods employed are original. He
simply causes the flower to drink certain
colored solutions-chiefya niline-which
penetrating the tissues, modify color, or,
in fact, dye the nervelets and veins Of
the carolla. It is known by gardeners
that hOrtensias receive blue tint from
the mixture Of iron filings with the soil
around tho plants. pansies and stocks
have their flowers colored in fifteen min
utes if their roots are immersed in q So
lntion of green aniline. The plant, how
ever, dies within week when thus
treated. Watering the soil with col
ored solution produces no effect, rs the
coloring matter is absorbed by the earth.
In the peninsula Of Paman, in Rus
STA, tomb dating from the third'century
before the Christian era has been discov-
cred. In it was found gold collar or
namented with lions heads; crown of
the same metal adorned with precious
stones, having in the centre a swan with
a Cupid on its wings; round gold
brooch with pin representing Venus
holding Cupid in her arms j; collar Of
pearls; earrings, chains, rings, bracelets
in gold, and vases of silver. The tomb
is supposed to be that of young girl.
Various saraats have tried to apply
to the color sense the Rrinciplea Of the
evolution theory. They represent that
our ancestors Of prehistoric and even Of
historic times had but an imperfect sense
Of colors, similar to that of the color
blind Of the present day; the latter be-
ing regarded as cases Of atavism, OF de-
generation to a primitive state. Argn-
,nents in favor Of this view arc drawn
from the designation of colors in very old
books, such as Homer the Bible, etc.
DR.. Dor, of Lyons, combats this theory,
contending that color-blindness is large
~ due to . lack Of proper training and
education, and tl' a! Aristotle was able to
distinguish rainbow colors as readily as
the average of our contemporaries. He
shows from the very writings upon which
the new theory was based numerous pas
sages indicating very highly developed
ideas Of color, while modern literature
abonnds in inaccurate color designations.
In conclusion, DR.. Dor brings facts from
the most early historic times, those of the
Egyptians and ancient Assyrians, to
prove that the color-sense was developed
;'s much as to-day, even Ut that distant
period,
-Phe mysterious power, electricity, is
undergoing every kind of manipulation
by enthusiastic scientists in endeavors to
