Instances of the Phenomena Recorded
by the Youths Companion.
Owing to Its varying and irregular
refraction tho atmosphere sometimes
plays strange tricks Everyone Is IA
miliar with the phenomenon known
rs mirage In which landscapes and
objects to distant to be seen under
ordinary circumstances are brought
into view and sometimes appear as II
suspended In the air before the aston
ished spectator. Unusual clearness
of the atmosphere Is a condition not
unlikely to be accompanied by such
effects During last summer several
remarkable instances occurred OF the
visibility OF very distant objecta due
to a peculiar condition OF the air.
In July the atmosphere over the
Mediterranean sea was uncommonly
clear. and on two days In that month
inhabitants OF Malta and Coco stand
ing on the shores OF their islands
were able to sec the cliffs on tho
coast OF Sicily and the great conc OF
Mount Etna clearly outlined against
the blue sky. although the distance Is
more than 100 milea and ordinarily
the objects named are completely in
visible. Owing to the peculiar re-.
tractive effect OF the air. Sicily
appeared at Malta to be lifted up into
sight from behind the horizon.
Another instance In which atmos-
pheric reiraction probably played an
important part Is furnished by the
experience Of Captain Ingraham OF
the steamship Penobscot plying on
the coast Of Maine.
One night last SINNER the captain
was able to SEQ simultaneously the
lights on Thatchers island. the Isle OF
ShoalA Boone island York harhOr.
Cape Elizabeth Seguin island and
Monbegan. The distance from
Thatcher's island TO Molbegan ID
eighty seven miles II Is said that
this is only tho second time on record
that all those lights have boon seen
at once.

A wonderrul Oucr.,ion.

Professor Benedict one OF the
great lights OF the medical science Mt
the University OF Vienna had a pa
tient suffering from epileptic fits
These fits he had observed. began
always with spasmodic twichings Of
the right side OF the face. from which
part the spasms would spread to the
arm. the shoulder. and SOON over the
body. From this fact the professor
inferred that the seat OF the disease
was at the root OF the facial nerves.
He took the patient to the operating
rooms OF the famous Professor Billroth.
There the skull OF the patient was cut
open. the affected parts OF the brain
were examined. and such parts as APP
peared morbid were removed. The
wound healed rapidly and the patient
has had no fits since
