\ Trim to the North Pole.

The belief in the possibility of sue
ceSSful aerial navigation still retains its
hold on the minds of many intelligent
men. 4 French scientist now proposes
to make scientific expedition to the
North Pole. He proposes to construct
a balloon of lined silk. 30 meters in di-
ameter, and having cubic capacity OF
I4.l2l meters. The balloon will be COW
cred with a special varniSh, which will
insure its absolute impervi0uSneSS. 1t
will be filled with pure hydrogen, and
its car will be constructed on novel
plan especially shifted for Polar eXpe-
dition. 1t is calculated that this aerial
Journey will last four or five days. 1t
is proposed 10 start from Spitzbergen,
and it is hoped that it will end on the
North American continent, or in the
northern part OF Asia.
This is by far the most important
Journey which has yet been attempted
in balloon, and if successful, it will
teach many lessons, not only in aerial
navigation, but also in many depart
mentS Of physical scrience.
Experiments are being made in an
other department of air travelling by
Lawrence Hargrave of, Sydney, New
South Wales. Mr.. Hargrave holds to
the feasibility of a flying machine in
which screw propellers or tapping wings
are used. and in his latest attempt he
used as prime mover Brotherhood en-
CINE driven by compressed air, which
was found to give Il trustworthy source
of power. These experiments have raised
a doubt as to whether the balloon is
even step in the right direction of
solving the aerial problem. They, atall
events, have demonstrated, from the
facts they have brought out as to the
flight of birds. that we have still great
deal TO learn as to the laws of animal
life, and their further investigation
opens up a wide field alike to the phySi-
ciSt and the mechanician.

Remarkable success has been attained
by Prof. Aim, of BreSau, in applying
photography to fix the indications Of
different diseases of the eye. Another
contribution TO one of the newest de-
partmentS of science are Prof. FiScher'S
photographs of civilizations of luminous
bacteria. which were photographed by
their own light-the views giving evil
dence Of the constant movement in
which the tiny organisms are unceaS-
mgly engaged One of the greatest an
thropologiSts of the century, in Paris,
has been making a collection Of various
types of mankind, and he does it by
means of the photograph. He inclineS
to the opinion that the type or origin.
the race to which the party originally
belonged, is better preserved among
women than among men. He has there
fore made his collection from among
women. and to increase its attractive
ness and value, he has announced his
intention to choose only beautiful women
for his types. ApropoS of this idea,
a prominent photographer proposes to
appeal to photographers for selection
and contribution of a Photographic re-
production of the representative woman
whom they consider the most beautiful;
so that a collection can be made which
will be handed down to poSterity as rep
resenting the standard types of beauty
in the nineteenth century.

firing at ducks, remember to shoot well
in front of them as they fly from sixty
to one hundred and fifty miles an hour.
If they come across you, about three
feet in advance is enough, and if direct
to you. from one foot TO three according
to the distance they are off. After a
storm ducks take lee shore where
they can rest and lay quiet TO recruit.
When found sitting do not fire If their
breasts are toward you, for unless hit
in the head they will escape. 1t is the
best plan to get close TO them and wait
until they strike the air. You will then
catch them under the wings.
One of the most curious methods of
Understanding is TO be found in the
ldndcS or marsh districts of France, III
the neighborhood of La Rochelle. The
local proverb runs: "Who comes from
La Rochelle smells of mud" and ii is
so. The boots of the peasant and the
cattle, horses, dogs and carts are all
plentifully bedaubed with it. The
marshes extend on every side for many
miles, not continuously, but in a sue
ceSsion of dry and wet tracts. the wet
predOminating. Paths about a foot
wide run here and there through the
moraSseS to the higher grounds where
the sheep feed, but they are winding
and tortuouS. Consequently the inhab-
itantS OF the district are a nation of
silt walkers.
