SppctacleS I'm Art,

Among tine figures forming part of the
architec ural decorations of the interior
Of Henry WIS chapel is one of saint
reading book and wearing pair of
s1cctcles without side straps and of the
form that used to be distinguished by
the name of goggles.
Such early spectacle glasses were Cir
cular in form and tixel in frames or
rims of leather, Connected by waist or
curved piece Of the same material
Leather has a certain elasticity, enough,
at least, to hold the glasses in position
OH the nose. I have got such pair,
probably not later than the time of
Charles ii.
These leather trimmed goggles appear
to have been succeeded by glasses of the
same shape with rms of tortoise shell
and steel waist. An example of the
early part of the last century in my pos
session, in the original black fish skin
case, shows that there was difficulty in
attaching the waist to the rim with the
necessary firmness. Hence arose the
rims with rigid waist and side pieces
for keeping the "spect;.cles" in position.
But they were heavy and clumsy,
whether in tortoise shell or horn, and the
difficulty still remained of making a re-
liable hinge in such brittle material
This seems to have brought about the
heavy gold, silver, and metal trimmed
spectacles of our graudfathers. i Notes

CuriOsities of Sunburn.

Sunburn on the snow has been the
subject of an interesting investigation
by DR.. Robert L. Bowles Alpine
climbers concede the curious fact that
sun on snow burns more quickly than on
rocks or in l.1ated valleys at low
elevation, and Dr.. Bowles remarks that
sunlight reflected from freshly fallen
snow acts much more energetically on
the skin than that reflected from older
snow. Dr.. Bowles one brilliant day
painted his face brown and assembled the
Corner Graf, where there was much
snow. There were about 80 others MAX
ing the ascent. In the evening all ex-
cepting DIR. Bowles were smarting from
the effects of sunburn. He points out
that in Morocco and all along the north
of Africa the inhabitants blacken them
selves round the eyes to avert ophthalmia
from the glare of the hot sand. In Fiji
the natives abandon their red and white
stripes when they go fishing on the reef
in the full glare of the sun and blacken
their faces. In the S kkim hills also the
natives blacken themselves round the
eyes as protection from the glare of the
sun on newly fallen snow. DR.. Bowles
concludes that heat is not the direct
cause of sunburn, but that it is probably
caused by the violet or ultra violet rays
of light which are reflected from the
snow.-[ London Daily News.

Thn LiInlts of XisInn.

1t is often a matter OF interest and inn
rortance to know how far one can see
from any given height, or, conversely,
how far one must be above the earth to
STE an object at iven distance. The
exc. calculation of these figures would
require the Il G of very complex formuR,
bu;, for practical USE. two very simple
rules will suffice: The u stance III miles at
which an Object upon the surface of the
earth is visible is equal to the square
root of one and half times the height
Of the observer in feet above the surface,
and conversely. The height in feet to
which an Ob@erver must he placed to see
distant object is equal to two thirds the
square of the distance in miles. For in-
stance: The OILS river is in the rigging of
a ship, one hundred feet above the water,
low far distant is the horizon? that is,
how far could an object floating in the
water be visible before being hidden by
the convexity of the earth? One and a
half times one hundred is one hundred
and fifty, and the square root of one
hundred and fifty is, approximately,
twelve and half, therefore the horizon
is twelve and a half miles distant. AS
the deck of smaller vessels, like pleasure
yachts, is rarely mo than ten feet above
the water, it follows that the limit of
vision from that point is less than four
miles in every direction
An illustration OF the second rule may
be given as follows: A building is SO
miles away; how high hill must one
climb in order to see it? AS the square
of the distance equals 1889, ami two
thirds of that number equals 726, it fol-
lows that we must climb hill 726 feet
high before we are able to see the build
ing, even with the most powerful tele-
scope. Usually, however, the height of
the object, as well as that of the OBJ
server, must be taken into consideration,
but this simply requires the duplication
of the problem. For instance: the
Washington monument is $50 feet high;
at what height must an observer so
miles away be in order to see the top of
| it? Surprising the observer to stand
upon the ground. we find by the first
rule that he could just see the top 80
miles away, and to overcome the re-
manning 81 miles, due to the convexity
of the earth, he would, by rule second,
have to climb to the height of 294 feet.
II we apply similar calculations to the
Eiffel tower, the highest artificial struct-
ure in the world, we obtain some in.
teresting results Assuming the height
to be just 1000 feet, we find that, stand.
ing at the top, we enjoy circle of vision
bounded by a horizon SO miles distant
and that, if another similar tower should
ever be erected, it could be placed ovel
7S miles away before the rays of the
electric lights on their SUBMITS would
be eclipsed by the intervening earth

A KitR Story.

Some fishermen engaged in Belfast
Tough recently picked up very large
seagull, which was seen approaching the
boat with wings outspread floating on
the water, but quite dead. The men
were puzzled to account for the progress
it made through the water, as it went
faster than the boat; but as it came near
it was found that, wound securely round
the body and under the wings, was a
string of cordage, which, on closer ex-
animation, they discovered was attached
to large paper kite then flying above
them at considerable height The kite
furnished the propelling power. The
bird had evidently, while flying at Bel
fast, got ensangled in the string of a
boys kite, had been unable to extricate
itself, and, taking to the sea, had been
drowned in its efforts to obtain freedom.

companies toward the use of intoxicat-

officials replied to circular letter sent
out by the Independent Every one of
the roads replying HIS either specific
rules, or policy that is generally under
stood, forbidding intoxication Fifty
four require absolute total abstinence
while on duty, and 25 absolute total
abstinence, not specifying ION duty.
Nineteen require that employees shall not
be intoxicated even while off duty; 10
specify that total abstinence will be con-
sidered condition to promotion. Nearly
all testify that they have very little
trouble with enforcing their rules against
the use of liquors. One road, Kansas

the signing, prior to employment, of
a total abstinence pledge.
