How to Warm Rooms.

Frequently the chilly feeling that one
experiences from the windowward side
as one sits in room is caused, not BY
current OF cold air setting from the
window to .he fire, but by the GOODNESS
OF the window itself. For this latter
being Eept at q low temperature By con-
tact with the open air, draws the heat
from the body, or rather the heat radi-
ates from the body TO the window, the
temperature of the air in between max
ing no difference whatever 10 the trans
ference, in accordance with we'll
known property of radiant heat.
For instance, the air in room may
be quite hot, and yet a large window,
however air-tioht, will make itself I'M
pleasantly felt on cold day. just as Or
board ship the propinquity of an ice
berg is announced by lowering Of tenn
perature. A screen interposed between
the window and any one exposed TO its
malign influence will often afford relief,
and one reason why rooms so frequent
ly feel more comfortable in the evening
is that the cold glass is eiiectually shut
OF behind the closely drawn-curtains.
In countries where the SHOWS are
habituaiiy severe the advent OF frost is
usually the signal for the fixing Ep o.
inner windows. the laver OF air between
these ami the outer ones forming ar eX-
ceIlent barrier to the escape OF heat,
owing TO its low conducive power.
Cold walls also induce Il sense OF chilli
ness, but if they are properly built there
should be no difficulty in keeping them
warm upon the inside.
The experiment has sometimes been
tried OF warming rooms by means OF not
air Onty, but the result has never been
good; and Tor this reascu-that, in or
der to warm the walls to the requisite
degree, the air must be far hotter than
Is healthy or agreeable for breathing.
in fact, the principle is wrong; the air
should not warm the walls, but the
walls WarGn the az.
An open IRE acts in this latter way.
The rays OF heat pass through the air
without heating il, and produce no effect
till they impinge on the walls. furniture
ana carpet oE the room. These. being
thus gently warned, communicate
their heat by contact with the air about
them, and ia this way. while the objects
IN the room are raised GO p sufficient
temperature, the air is not rendered IN
pleasant by being cYer-heated.
We see, then, that our faVcrite open
lres have nhucn to recommend them,
whatever may be said aoOut their waste

A Bird's-Eye Wv of the Earth.

If we imagine an observer contem-
plating the earth from convenient
distance III space, and scrUtinizing its
features rs it rolls before him, we may
suppose him TO be struck with the fact
that eleven sixteenths of its surface a:e
covered with water, and that the land
is so unequaily distributed that from
one point of view he would see hemi-
sphere almost exclusively oceanic, while
nearly the whole of the dry land IS
gathered in the opposite hemisphere.
lie might observe that the great oceanic
area of the Pacific and Antarctic Oceans
is dotted with islands-like & shallow
pool with stones rising above its surface
as if its great depth were small in
comparison with its area. He might
also notice that a mass or belt of land
surrounds each pole, and that the
northern ring sends off to the south
ward three vast tongues of land and of
mountain-chanS, terminating respect
lively in South America, South Africa,
and Australia. toward which feebIer
ana lnsular processes are given OF by
the Antarctic continental mass. This,
as some geographers have observed,
gives rudely three-ribbed aspect to the
earth, though two of the three ribs are
crowded together and form the EurOp-
Asian mass, or double continent, while
the third is isolated in the single conti-
nent OF America. He might also observe
that the northern girdle is cut across,
50 that the Atlantic opens by wide
space into the Arctic sea, while the
Pacific is contracted toward the north,
I,,tt i,,nr.t /, b,, A,f
The Atlantic is also relatively deeper
and less cumbored with islands than
the Pacific, which has the higher ridges
near its shores, constituting what some
visitors to the Pacific coast of America
have SO inaptly called the back of the
world" while the wider slopes face the
narrower ocean, into which for this
reason the greater part OF the drainage
OF the land is poured. The Pacific ard
Atlantic, though both depressions or
flattenings of the earth, are, we shall
iind, different in age, character, and
conditions; and the Atlantic, though the
smaller, is the Older, and from the geo
logical point Of view, in some respects,
the more important of the two. Ii our
imaginary observer had the means of
knowing anything OF the rock forma-
tons OF the continents, he would notice
that those bounding the north Atlantic
are i'll general OF great age, some be-
longing 10 the Laurentian system. On
the other hand, he would see that many
OF the mountainranges along the
Pacific are comparatively new, and that
modern igneous action occurs IN con-
nection with them. Thus he might be
led 10 believe that the Atlantic, though
comparatively narrow, is an older
feature of the earth's surface, while the
Pacific belongs to more modern times.
