THE SIMMER SOLSTICE.

On the Dist of June, at o'clock in the
morning, according to he Scientific american,
the sun enters the ign Cancer, and inaugurates
the great physical epoch known as the summer
sOlstice. He has reached his extreme northern
declnatiOn of twenty-three and half degrees,
and just grazing the Troplc OF Cancer, pauses
for few DAYS in his cOHlse before turning his
steps from our northern cline 1t would seem
as If our hottest days should occur about the
21st of June when the suns perpendicular
rays fall upon this portion of the globe. But
such is not the case. As midsummer APP
proaches the quantity of heat received from
the sun during the day is greater than the
luanGty of heat lost during the night, and
fhere is therefore an increase of heat each day.
The daily increase reaches its maximum at
The summer sOlstice. But the heat garnered up
by the process causes an accession of heat each
day until the heat lost during the night is Just
equal to that received during the day. This
happens sometime in July or August. Our
hottest weather for this reason occurs some
time after the summer sOlstIce, lust as the hot
test part of the day is sometime after midday,
and the coolest part OF the night IS toward
morning

SEWER GAS IN HOUSES.

Professor Kerr in late address before the
british Civil and Mechanical Engineers
Society. expressed views on the sewer--gas
o1estion very similar to those urged by Drs
Hamilton and DOremuS, of this city, IN the
discussion of the same question here last
March They knew. said Professor Kerr, that
gas was generated by the decomposition OF the
1ecayinc matter ia sewage when deposited, III
however slight a degree, upon any interior
surface. What followed They knew this
gas had two qualities which were extremely
obnoxious one quality was that 1t assembled 10
the highest level by reason OF deficient speclhc
gravity and the second quality was that when
II reached the highest level 1t exercised pres
sure, being an extremely elastic gas. lie need
scarcely point out the effect of these two con-
alterations When the sewer-Sas "a most eX-
cellent name, without going into particulars

an an rer the country, too, persons or families of
this dark early type occur here and there
sporadcally.
6ebt Aryan people, who have broken over the
Islands in three distinct waves-Celtlc, English
and Scandinavian,-and have everywhere
MIXED more OF less with one another, and with
the old Euskarian race. Ireland is, perhaps,
mainly peopled by Euskarians intermlxed, IN
most parts, with Celts (but least so In Come
mara and Kerry, while round Its east coast
there is much Scandinavian blood; and IN

But, as whole, Ireland is probably more
Euskarian and less Aryan than any, other part
of Britain. In Scotland, the north and the

English and the western LOwlands are pe0-
pled bv Strath lyde Welshmen-that Is to say,

of Aryan Celtic and English blood than else

slightly Celticized, and with a little English
and Morse blood. England itself is mainly
English COR Low-Dutch) in the southeast
adIoivtnre i'm the eastern counties, the north
and and the midlands; English and CeltEuskarian
in the west country and the Severn valley ;
and Morse and Cet-Euskarian IN Lancashire
and the lake district. Cornwall alone remains
almost wholly Euskarfan in type.
All these statements, however, must be &C
cepted merely in the rough, and they apply
especially TO the agricultural classes ana the
Mass of the people.

DECIDING DEAD HEATS.

Mr.. Muy bridge, who was so successful IN
photographing the horse in motion, says there Is
no such thing as a "dead heat IN horse races;
And he suggests that photography should
be called in to decide where judges disagree.
With the aid Of photography, the astronomer.
the pathologist, the chemist and the anatomist
are enabled 10 pursue the most complex Inves-
LEGATIONS with absolute confidence IN the truth
it reveals; why should those interested IN trials
of speed not avail themselves of the same
resources of science.7 And he ventures to
predict in the near future that no race OF any
Importance will be undertaken without the
assistance of photography to determine the
winner of what might otherwise be so-caiIed

A CrRIOUS DISEASE.

1t has been observed that the manufacture of
bichromate of potash has "a singular effect upon
the nose, manifesting itself IN a curious man
ner. little hole is formed on the septum or
partition of the nose dividing the nOstuls, and
increases gradually until the partition entirely
disappears, with the exception of It's lower
part, so that to a superficial observer there Is
nothing the matter with the nose, except "a
little outward depression. As soon as the par
tition is destroyed the process appears to stop
there neither the lungs, alI-tubes nor throat
being in the least degree affected. Some
workmen at the chrome factory in Russia,
where the disease has been chiefly watched,
have been employed tor ten years and re-
NAMED unaffected while with others the hole
in the nose begins to be formed after one
months work. But that the disease is some
thing more than an individual peculiarly is
evident from the fact that an inspection of all
the hands proved that more than 80 per cent
of the men had diseased noses. The early
symptoms are slight tickling of the part
affected, followed by bleeding, but with no
uncomfortable feelings, and, in fact, the de-
structive process is painless

MILITARY AERONAUTICS.

Germany and Russia are both pushing for
ward experiments in flying machines for use In
war or otherwise. The direction in which
these are working. says The Pail Nal Gazette,
ignores the inflated gas-bag, which Is enormous
in size, difficult and costly 10 ill in war, and
floats-a gigantic derelict-at the mercy of
every current of air, huge mark for the first
gunner who can hit and bring it TO the ground.
Baumgarten, in Germany, and Baranovskl, IN
Russia, adopt the principle of the inclined
plane pressed against the air, and thus capable
OF making some attempt at least TO regulate ItS
own course. In the kite the force that presses
the inclined plane is the hand of the boy acting
through the string. In the sail of the boat the
RESISTANCE OF the water to sldelong mot2h
Keeps the sail pressed against the wind. In
HyIng machines the pressure is given by an
engine carried by the machine, and acting by

practical knowledge accnmulators may be
fairly expected to supply the maximum of power
with the minimum of weight Then the prob
lem OF flying in still All will probably be solved.
