why It Is Cold on the mountains.

Go into a greenhouse on sunshiny day,
and we find the temperature much hotter
there than outside. The glass viii allow the
hot sunbeams to enter, but it refuses to allow
them out again with equal freedom, and con-
sequently the temperature rises Our whole
earth is in this way to be likened to a green
house, only, instead of the panes Of glass, we
are enveloped by an enormous coating Of at
mosphere. When we are on the earth's sur
face we are, as it were, inside the greenhouse,
and we benefit by the interposition Of the
atmosphere; but when we begin to climb
very high mountains we gradually get
through the atmosphere, and then we suffer
from the cold If we could imagine the earth
stripped Of its coat Of air, then eternal frost
would reign over the whole earth as well as
on the top Of the mountains, Boston Budget.

A Beneficial Movement.

The Nan About Town noticed an announce
ment in the daily papers lately that struck
him as being significant and pleasantly
characteristic Of the tendency Of the age In
this country A certain club, composed Of
young laboring men Of St. Louis, has devoted
one night Of every week to a series of lee
lures, most of which viii be given by the
professors Of several educational institutions
located here, and will cover subjects Of en-
tertainment and Improvement This same
club, under the guidance Of a competent
critic, lately made visit to the Museum Of
Fine Arts, where they studied the collection
earnestly and ntelligently. This sort Of
work, spreading among that class of sturdy
and vigorous young men employed in the
trades, means a degree Of self improvement
and an increase Of intelligence in the mass Of
the people which is Of the greatest promise,
and should be encouraged as the most bene-
fetal movement that could be inaugurated.

Concerning cnlnr nlindnsss.

The following is from paper read before
the Kansas Academy Of Science at Leayen-
worth.
The fact that blindness to certain colors
exists among civilized people is well estab-
hshed; also the percentages Of cases to be
found among males has been determined with
considerable probability for the races Of
Europe and America. There has been much
diversity in methods of testing, and the re-
suits of mony reported determinations might
well be called into question. Still it is prob
ably not far from the truth that about four
out Of every hundred males are more or less
deficient in color sense. OF females there
have been reported (B. J. Jafries, M. D.,
Color Blindness, page "a as examined in Eu-
rope and America SO, ,S2s; and Of these only
sixty weTe color blind, or two per cent. OF
both males and females, 1861 732 have been
tested; and Of these g, III or 427 per cent. are
color blind. These statistical facts have
naturally excited interest and discussion. II
solarge number as four out Of every hundred
arc unable to distinguish colors, there arises,
Of course, a practical question important to
the railroads, marine, etc.
The gravity Of this fact is already recog-
nized more or less in all countries by the test
examinations for color blindness among en-
ployes. But there is in these statistics also
much Of interest to scientists.

Minister pelmont,s Humane Act.


A private letter from Madrid gives the fol
lowing: During the military maneuvers to-
day an incident occurred in which tho Amer
ican minister, Mr. Perry Belmont. played a
commendable part The reviewing ground
is about three miles out Of the city. Tho
queen and all the high court officials wero
present, and there was en- immense concourse
Of people. During ono Of the naneuyers an
artilleryman was thrown from his horse,
and before the onward rush could be checked
be was run over by the gun carriage and
badly hurt, his leg being broken. The point
at which this accident occurred was just op-
posite to where the American minister was
looking on from his carriage. Mr.. Belmont
at once alighted and had the injured man
put in his carriage and driven TO the hospital,
some miles away. This humane and grace
ful act was loudly cheered by the crowd, and
tho cominauder-in-chief rode up and rendered
Minister Belmont his thanks in person. De-

The Causs Of Dizziness.

Darwin explains the origin Of dizziness in
persons whilo looking down from a lofty po-
sition in the following way; He says that in
learning to walk, we judge of the distance Of
the objects we approach by the eye, and by
observing their perpendicularity determine
our own; and that at all times we determine
our want Of perpendicularity or inclination
to fall, by attending TO the apparent motion
within the sphere Of distinct vision. Hence,
when we are upon the summit Of a high cliff,
tower Of other eminence, and look down, we
become dizzy, because the objects below are
out of the sphere Of distinct vision, and we
are obliged to balance ourselves BY the less
accurate feelings Of our muscles.-New York
