The ives of "A Bee.

Every bee has two kinds of eyes-the
two large compound ones, looking like
hemisphees on either side, and the
three simple ones which crown the top
of the head. Each compound eye is
composed of $500 facets-that is to say,
an object is reflected $500 times on its
surface. Every one of these facets is
the base of an inverted hexagonal pyra-
mid, whose apex is fitted to the head.
Each pyramid may be termed an eye,
for each has its own iris and optic nerve.
How these insects manage this mar
velous number of eyes is not yet known.
They are immovable, but mobility is I'M
necessary because of the range of vision
afforded by the position and the number
of facets. They have no lids, but are
protected from dust and injury by rows
of hairs growing along the lines at the
functions of the facets. The simple
eyes are supposed to have been given the
bee to enable it to see above its head
when intent upon gathering honey from
the cups of flowers. Probably this may
be one reason, but it is likely there are
other uses for them not yet ascertained.

used by the ancient Greeks and Romans,
and since his day similar instruments have
been found in comparative abundance both
at Herculaueum and Pompeii. The first
account of the manufacture of white
iron" or steel needles, says that they were
made at Nuremberg, in 146O, and, while
the exact date is in doubt, they are said to
have been made in Britain as early as 1913.
The account further adds that the first
needles manufactured in England were
made by a Spanish negro, who died with

Physical Culture and Long Life.

According to leading medical jour
nal, out of 5000 soldiers who were ex-
amined recently by a surgeon nearly 80
per cent. were found to be suffering
from heart trouble as the result of forced
exertion. This leads that journal to the
conclusion that athletic sports are not
conducive to longevity, and it points as
a proof to France, where there is no
craze for muscular development, and
where one finds more people over the
age of sixty than in England, with its
rage for physical culture. 1t would
seem, however, that the distinguished
editor of the journal in question con-
founded the rage for display" athletics
with that for general physical devel.'S'
ment.
