ing and descending, caused an average
rise in bodily temperature of about three
degrees; rise in the pulse from about
seventy-fvc to eighty-three in minute;
and increase in respiration from about
twenty-one to twenty-five in minute.
In recent experiments the average
crushing force resisted by red bricks was
$3.50 pounds per square inch. They were
slightly cracked. Bricks supporting
about one-seventh of this load-or sixty
three tons per square foot-have been ac-
cepted as safe for high towers if still 'un-.
cracked. At the base of the tallest brick
structure in existence-the famous ehim-l
ney of 420 feet in height at St. Rollox,
Glasgow-the pressure is calculated at
6,670 pounds per square foot.
Snow varies greatly in weight, accord
ing to the condition of the atmosphere.
When very dry and 'feathery," scarcely
anything is lighter than a handful OF /
snow. On an average it is found that
a cubic yard weighs about 1877 pounds,
or about one twelfth of the weight of an
equal bulk of water. Ice is lighter than
water, but in nothing like the same pro-
portion; and a certain quantity Of snow
would, on the average, weigh only about
one-eleventh of the same volume Of ice.
The reason of course lies in the greater
compactness of the ice.
Some experimental yellow fever inoeu-
lations by DR.. Charles Finley, of Havana,
have been made in somewhat curious
manner, mosquito being caused first to
sting a yellow fever patient and then the
healthy subject. A mild form of the
disease resulted, which became more
severe when two mosquitoes were en-
ployed to convey the poison. Of eleven
cases of this incubation, six were efica-
cious, one doubtful, and four negative.
The period of incubation varied from five,
to fourteen days, and the fever lasted, as
in the ordinary form, from five to twen-:s
ty-one days. Dr.. Finley believes that
the artificial yellow fever produced by
this method will effectively protect
against the natural and dangerous form
of the disease. tl
