every hoof had been pared to suit his ideas
of the way that the hoof needed fixing in

VIII AT Is MANI

There have been two very interesting
little meetings in New York recently.
One of them was meeting of men, called
together by man who had ideas of home
Life which did not accord with the ideas
of his beloved wife. All of the men who
attended this meeting agreed that it was
impossible to get wives nowadays to stay
at home and boil the kettle. "Where,"
asked one of the men, ''are our wives"
In the streets, he answered, at teas,
luncheons, dinners, in the shops, travelling
abroad, or away for an "outing," at
Browning clubs, faith cure seances.
women's rights meetings, Ibsen reunions,
Meredith mornings, Blavatsky circles, in
digent female rescues, arriving emigrants'
shelters, mothers meetings, church
sociables, Bulgarian bazaars-anywhere
everywhere, except at home. This view
of the situation had the hearty endorse
ment of the other members of the assem-
bly,.
The other meeting was the latest meeting
of Sorosis, at which men were discussed in
q way which seemed to indicate that, in the
opinion of most of the discussers, Man was
made to be managed by Woman, and that
it is easy for Woman to manage him if she
will only pay little attention to the study
of him. One married woman asserted a
dictum, founded on her own experience,
that husbands needed to be trained from
the cradle. This alarming decision was
supplemented by the frank statement of
another orator, also married woman,
that eve are all strong minded wo-
men here and have our peculiar views
about the management of our husbands.
But think that we had better keep our
methods of government to ourselves Our
husbands will be more easily managed and
better pleased if we do so." After more
of this kind of wisdom nice old lady who
had never been married spoke up and at
tempted to convince the meeting that love,
sympathy and mutual forbearance were
the best of all household guides. And she
was smiled at as one who meant well but
didn't know.
This appears to leave the important
question, What is Msna still unanswered.
But perhaps it is not so important as Man
thinks it is.

The Scorpion and the vioIIo.

Correspondence of the London Speciator.l
have studied the habits of the scorpi-
on for many years. aud have often noticed
how very sensitive scorpions are to the
most delicate sound, musical or otherwise.
Under the thorsx the scorpion has two
comb-like appendages, which are the an
tennm (pectinate-) 1t is pretty well set
tied by Psychologists and entomologists
that in insects the antenne represent the
organs of hearing. These delicate struo-
lures are easily affected by the vibrations
of sound, and there can be no doubt what
ever that they are also affected by sounds
quite inaudible to the human ear. The
from any cause whatever, at once puts in
motion the delicate structures which com
pose the antennR, to which organs insects
owe the power of protecting themselves
against danger as well as the means of re-
cognizing the approach of one another.
Spiders have wonderful eyesight. but
am quite sure that the scorpions vision,
notwithstanding his six eyes, is far from
being acute. 1t is very difficult to catch a
spider with pair of forcsps, but q scor-
pion can be easily captured if no noise is
made. Spiders their prey before they
are caught in the web; but the scorpion
makes no movement whatever tn seize flies
or cockroaches until they indicate their
whereabouts by movements. This being
the case, il can be readily understood how
easily the scorpion may be reused into mo-
tion by the vibrations of music. as de-
scribed in the article alluded TO III a tun-
ng-fork be sounded on the table on which
l keep my cagrd scorpion he at once be-
comes agitated, and strikes out yiciously
with his sting. On touching him with the
vibrating tuning-fork he stings it, and
then coils himself up scorpions do when
hedged in. In Jamaica the negroes be-
lieve that scorpions know their name; so
they never call out, See, a scorpion" !"
when they meet with one on the ground or
wall, for fear OF his escaping. They thus
indirectly recognize the scorpions delicate
appreciation of sound; but if you wish to
stop a scorpion in his flight blow air on
him from the month, and he at once coils
himself up. i have repeatedly done this;
but with spider it has a contrary effect
Music charms a snake into silence, as the
experiments at the Zoo aud elsewhere
prove; but the agitated eontortions and
writings of The scorpions wh-n reused
by the sound of the violin only prove that
they are rou-ed by the vibrations of sound
caused by music, and this would happen If
they were disturbed by the discoriant
sounds of penny trumpet or any other
unmusical Instrument.

at any rate, very soon, it cannot fail to be

for its employment, declaring after thir-

which the population is equal. The sig
niicance of this gradual withdrawal of the
mean population line from the coast must
not be missed. The fact means that the
Anglo-SaIons in the United States are be-
coming what they have never been before
in their history, an inland people. In
very little time the vast majority of Amer
but will never have been within q thou
sand miles of it. The destiny of the
American people is to become as much q
people of great inland plains as the Rus
slams, and this fact will be made clear to
the world when travellers leave the ocean
at New York, and after travelling inland
over q thousand miles, find themselves in
O city as big as Vienna and ten times as
rich and energetic.
The existence of great city so far Ie-
moved from the sea is probably unique in
the worlds history. Delhi in the days of
its greatest prosperity had no doubt a very
large population, but unless Moscow can
be called great, We can recall no other
great city of ancient or modern times sit
uated in the heart of a continent 1t may
be said that Chicago is en- exception only
in name, and that il could never have
achieved the position it has achieved but
for the fact that it is situated on the shores
of a great double-srmed inland sea- No
doubt the great lakes have helped Chi icsgo,
and no doubt also the fact that they re-
quire from the populations which sur
round them all the seafaring qualities of
the English race, will prevent it's inhabi-
tants from becoming too inlandish In their
habits. Chicago, however, Is not enough
in the middle of the continent to hold for
ever the position of the typical American

some younger rival to the west and south,
possessed of a geographical position more
suited TO the commercial capital of q nA-

land people. Still, as We have said above,
Chicago for the time will serve as an OBJ
ject lesson in regard to the great change
which has come over the conditions under
