Natures Healthfulness,.

Mr.. J.. R.. Werner has, in his account
of his visit to Stanley's rear guard, some
pointed remarks on the healthfuiness OF
nature as compared with the unsanitary
conditions induced by civilization He
says:
"Nature, when left alone, does her
own scavengering; but as civilization
advances. the works of man often inter-
fere with the. natural drainage, without
providing any substitute; and it Is only
when the population has been decimated
by disease that mems eyes are opened.
The primitive savage living in his hut
has no need of dust-bin or dust-cart.
The ants from the large hill close by
will soon make. short work of any meat
he may have left on the bones. The
sexton. beetle will soon bury what re-
mains out of sight, and the wind and
rain sweep all feathers and dirt into the
river. AS civilization advances, reads
arc made, the ant-hills get destroyed,
and hawks and carrion birds disappear
before the death dealing shotgun. The
natives congregate together in large
towns, without any Improvement in their
sanitary arrangements, where the salutary
effects of wind and rain are probably
neutralized by the way in which the
streets are built; and so things go on till
disease is generated and men fall oy
hunjreds."

Curious Facts About the Sea.

The oceans and seas are the great
reservoirs into which run all the rivers
of the world. It is the cistern which
finally catches all the rain that falls not
only upon its own surface, but upon tho
surface of the land as well. ALI of this
water is removed again by evaporati on
as fast as it is supplied, it being esti+
mated that every year layer Of the en-
tire water surface of the globe over four
teen feet thick is taken up into the clouds
to fall again as rain. This vaEor is
fresh, of course. and if all the water Of
the oceans could be removed in the same
way and none of it returned, it is calcu-
lated that there would be layer of pure
salt 230 feet thick left in the bottoms of
these great reservoirs. This is upon the
supposition that each three feet of ocean:
water contains one inch of salt, and that
the average depths OF all oceans is three
miles.
At depth of $500 feet the tempera-
ture is uniform, varying but trife be-
tween the poles and the equator. In
many of the deep bays on the coast Of
Norway and other Arctic countries the.
water often begins to freeze at the bot-l
tom before it does at the surface. At
the same depth, $500 feet, waves are
not felt. Waves do not trnvel-that ISL
the water does not move forward, al
though it seems to do so; it remains sta
tionary. It IS the rising and falling that
moves on.
The pressure Of the water increases,
rapidly with the depth. At distance,
of one mile the pressure is reckoned as
about one ton to the square inch, or,
more than 1873 times the pressure Of the:
atmosphere.
To- get correct soundings in deep wa
ter is difficult. The best invention for!
that purpose. is, g. shot weighing about,
thirty pounds, which carries down q
line. Through this shot or ''sinker" .
hole is drilled, and through the hole Isl
passed rod. of iron which moves easily
back and fourth. At the end Of the bar
a. cup is, dug out, the inside being coated
with lard. The bar is, made fast TO- the
iue;. a sling holding the'shot in position.
When the bar, which extends below the
shot,. touches the bottom, the sling I'M
hooks and. the shot slides downward and
drives the lard-coated cup into the sand
at the bottom. In that way the charae-
ter of the oceans, floor is determined.
If the surface of. the Atlantic was
lowered 1854 feet it would be; reduced
to exactly half its, present width. Il
the Mediterranean were lowered $50 feet
Italy would be joined. to- Africa, and
three separate seas, would remain.-St.

JUST before the Roman cohorts
marched from their dressing-rooms
into the Madison Square Garden in
New York at the performance OF
sNero" the other night, a much
frightened gray cat that had strayed
in from somewhere scampered across
the floor. The noise of the band and
the fierce appearance of the oncomlng
warriors drove the cat into a panic,
and it danced around in most anus
ing manner. All the spectators at
oncs lost interest in Nero" and gave
their attention to the cat. The occu-
pants of the boxes leaned out to see
what it was going to do, and the null
titude in the galleries and in the re-
served seats stood up and shouted.
For about two minutes the noise OF the
band and the tramp of the soldiers
was drowned in the roar of laughter
and the shouts of the audience. Then
pussy desperately leaped into one OF
the boxes, causing ND little panic
there, and scampered through and
around the seats until it found shelter
In some hidden nook.

Conditions of. Vigorous. Old. Age.

The present greater proportion than
formerly existed of men who pass the
age of seventy years, reach fourscore,. or
are active at ninety years, points to'one
of the brighter phases of our civilization.
The association of this vigor with differ
ent physical types is suggestive Of cer-
tain generality of origin, and encourages
the hope that it may be partly dependent
on personal conduct. As a; first: oondi-
tion toward obtaining effective longeH-
ity, Dr.. B. W. Richardson advises pal
rents to begin for their children by saving
them the infiction of mental shocks, and
unnecessary grief, and making every
thing as happy for them as they can. .The
persons themselves, when older,. should
avoid grief and eschew hate, jealousy,
unchastlty, and intemperance,. all OF
which hasten the coming of old age.
When old age has really begun, its
march may be delayed by rules securing}
the least friction and the least waste
subsistence on light but nutritious, food,
varying according to the season.. audl
moderate in quantity; dressing. warmly,
but lightly, so as to enable the body to-
maintain its. even temperatures: keeping
the body in fair exercise and, the mind
active and cheerful; maintaing an inter
est in what is going on in the world, and
participating IN reasonable labors and
pleasures; securing plenty Of sleep dur
ing sleeping hours, in a. room kept at At
moderate temperature; and avoiding pas
sion, excitement and luxury. The:weakerf
man may thus sometimes, show HIMSELF
the more tenacious, of life.-Popular Sci-i
