Theory of Meteorites-

One of the Oldest theories, and the one
that IS, perhaps. most consistent Win
known facts and laws, is that meteorites
are bodies moving round the sun, which
occasionally enter our atmosphere, and are
either frittered into dust or reach the earth
as erolItes. In other words, they are abnor-
mally large fragments Of comets small
fragments are dissipsted in the higher re-
glons of the air by the intense heat pro-
duced by friction, ami give rise to the phe-
nomenon of shooting stars. Large pieces
appear as fire balls, and very large masses
fall through the air IN state OF comous-
ton, which Is not, however, sufficiently III
tense to consume their volume before reach
ing the ground. This idea Cf a celestial
origin seems to have originated among the
Greeks Plutarch says: Failing stars
are, according to the opinion of some physl-
cIsts, not eruptlons of the ETHEREAL fire ex-
tipguished in the air Immediately after Its
ignition, nor yet an in,iammatory comDus-
ton of the air, which Is dissolved II large
quantities in the upper regions OF space
but these meteors are rather TALL OF celes-
tial bodies, which IN consequence OF GER
tain intermission in the rotary force, and
by the impulse Of some irregular movement,
have been hurled down not TO the inhabited
portions of the earth, but also beyond 1t
into the great ocean, where we canno. md
them." The views of Diogenes OF Apol-
lonia are expressed thus: "Stars that are
invisible, and consequentlylhave no name,
move in space together with those that are
visible. These invisible stars frequently
fall to the earth, and are extinguished, as
the stony star which fell burning at 1Egos
Pc:amos" Cnladni, as the result OF his
Investigations, advanced the opinion that
meteors are bodies moving in space, being
either accumulations of matter as originally
created or fragments separated from a
larger mass of similar nature. Sir IT,
Davy offered the same explanation IN the
Philosophical Transactions for 1871.
These views. or rather a modification OF
them suited to increased knowledge of cos
mical ways and means, have their modern
advocate. in Professor III. A. Newton, OF
Yale College.

DOMESTIC.

PPOTgCTING LARGE FLOWER PoTs.-To
know how to protect our large flower pots
against early breaksge, to which they are
slngularly liable, as all gardeners Rust
know, is q matter of some importance
when their cost is reckoned. We use the
ordinary sizes, and they seem to last for
ever unless they get an unexpected crack
but in some unacc0untable way the larger
ones are sure to get broken very soon aft T
thev are placed iu use. These large pots
cost money, especially when over a foot
in diameter. and hence are not risked as
often as they would be, but wooden tubs are
used I'D their stead, and soon rot away and
often are not regarded quite rs good for
some plants as the pots would be. Now.
the reason why these large pots break So
easily is from the pressure inside the circle.
The mass of earth is very heavy. and this
added by perhaps slight jar in moving
the plant soon makes a crack. when the
pot falls apart not long after. We have,
indeed, seen cases where the mere filling
of the pots with roots has caused these
large pots to burst asunder. To avoid all
this, nothing in necessary. but 10 fr light
piece of Uire underneath the rim. Ii
lssoou done, and will thus keep in good
order for less than a cent half-dollar pot
that otherwise would be broken in year
How simple all this seems! No doubt
anybody could think of this" Perhaps
so but we only know one good gardener
who takes the trouble to do it, and we
know he finds it to his great profit to at
tend to it as well as to know il can be done.
Try it, brethren, and see if this little hint
is not worth sticking to. in saving you
many a dollar.

The Pepsiae Treatment o. Tape
Dorm.-The tapeworm is able to live in
the stomach because of its ability to resist
the digestive action of the fiuiGs normal to
the stomach. In a stronger peptic solution
the live worm succumbs and is digested
like any other flesh. Accordingly French
physician treated with stronge doses OF
pep sine child who had passed segments
of a large tapeworm. About 40 grains OF
pepslne were administered daily for five
days. The child experienced no harm and
showed no special symptoms. Then pro-
per dose of sulphate of pelletierine with
castor oil was given, and the discharges
showed no signs of the worm. Subsequent
experiments with vegetable pepsine-
papaine-which is much more active, are
said to have given very promising results.
One child passed fragments of tapeworm
ten inches in length. softened and pra"ti-
cally dIgested.

Paster, Chamberlaud. and Roux unite
in arriving at the conclusion that new
disease can he developed from the saliva OF
a victim of hydrophobia. The germ which
produces the disease Is of the shape OF
small rod constructed at the middle and I'M
bedded in MUCOUS matter. Strange to say,
although closely resembling the microoe
which causes chicken cholera, it has no
effect upon fowls. The salivs experimental
with was taken from a child that had died
of a bite from mad dog. Rabbits lnnocu-
lated with a dilute solution OF 1t, sfter SUI
ering from loss of appetite, paralysis,
swelling in the groin and in the axill9, died
within twenty-six hours, and other raooits
iunoculated with the blood of those which
had been poisoned with the saliva soon died
also. Dogs similarly treated did not 1--we
more than two or three days, but they did
no, manifest any of the symptoms OF
rabies. Guinea pigs, although so like rao-
bits, seemed to escape all evil conse
ouences. The experimenters are OF the
opinion that the disease is quite different
from hydrophobia but they have not as
yet pushed their researches far enough TO
be able to say what precise connection eA-
lists between the two maladies.

Separation OF Nickel Oride and Co
bait OT'ide.-The author proposes to give
a process for the separation OF the two
metals, derived from two known methods,
aud permitting the exact determination of
the two oxides, and the preparation of tine
two metals in a state of purity. The two
fundamental processes are that of Pisani,
who uses caustic pOtassa in presence of an
ammoniacal liquid, in which are dissolved
the two metals, with exclusion of air. The
nickel oxide is precIpitated alone in bulk,
but always carries down with it more or
less of cobalt oxide. The second method is
that of Terrell, who precipitstes cobslt in
an acid solution in the state Of roseo cobal-
tic hydrochlorate. The cobalt oxide is
peroxidized by means of permanganate.
We suppose that the two bodies, cobalt and
nickel, haye been obtained by known
methods, either as pure oxides or pure sui
phides, free from all foreign matter. The
mixed oxides or sulphides are dissolved in
an aqua regia containing large proportion
of hydrochlorlc acid. The solution Is large
ly diluted with water and saturated with
ammonia in excess. Permanganate is then
added until the solution remains rose color
ed for some tiue. Pure potassa is then
added, when the nickel is precipltated as
hydroxide, carrying with it manganese
oxide, derived IRON the permanganate.
The precipitate is washed by decantation
and filtered, redissolved in hydrochlorc
acid, and treated again with ammonia, per-
manganate, and caustc potassa. The wash
ing waters which contain the cobalt are
collected, saturated with acetic acid, and
precipltated by sulphure:ed hydrogen The
mixture of nickel and manganese oxides is
redissolved in hyrochlorie acid, and the
solution saturated with ammonia The
solution is exposed to the air for some time,
and the manganese oxide is by degrees en-
tirely precipitated. 1t is filtered of, the
filtrate is saturated with acetic acid, and
the nickel thrown down by means of sui
phureted hydrogen. The process may be
employed on large scale for obtaining
nickel free from cobalt.

MULES on THE rARM.-Some way or
other, mules tor work on the farm: are not
appreciated by the agricultural community.
Why 1t is so no one can tell. 1t does not
cost but little over half as much to feed
grain to mules, as it does horses, as they
require SD much less and remain in good
order, and as far as work is concerned a
span of mules will do as much and prob
ably more work than span of horses can.
They are as gentle and as easily handled
as horses. 1t is true they are not as hand
some, and few years ago they were not
as gentle, but the American mule is a great
improvement in every particular on his
Spanish brother. They are found to be So
profitable by the farmers in the South that
it is seldom span of horses can be found
on farm, but all the teams are composed
of mules There should be more of them
in the North.

Professor Bowditch, of Harvard col
lege, having examined the measurements
of some 1000 Boston school children,
finds that the growth of children
takes place in such a way that, until the
age of eleven or twelve years, boys are
both taller and heavier than girls of the
same age: but at this period of life girls
begin to grow very rapidly, and in the
next two or three years surpass boys of the
same age in both weight and height-boy'
then acquiring and retaining size super
ior to that of girls, who have now COM
pleted their full growth.

To HARDEN FINISHING VAHNIsH.- A
newly vanished carriage is liable to spot.
To prevent tins, some wash the carriage
two or three Tires in clean cold water, ap-
piled with sponge instead of using hose;
thus will help harden the surface. and pre-
vert II, to some extent, from being injured
by the mud o: water getting splashed on
the job. Never let mud dry on the surface
and then wash off expecting to see no
spots on the varnish. You will certainly
be disappointed, and the only way to
remedy the evil will be to have 1t reyarn-
ished. Soft water is better than hard Wa
ter for the washing of carriages as the
lime which is in the hard water is very
liable to iniure the varnish.
