A Lucky Accident.

One Of the greatest discoveries ever
made was the result Of the purest &C.
cident. 1t was the year 1895. The
citizens OF Munich had just witnes sed
the first triumphant performance Of
Motzart's opera, don juan" and the
theater was deserted by all save one
man, Alois Sennefelder, who. after
making round of inspection in the
building to see that no sparks had
ignited anything combustible, retired
to his room to stamp the tickets OF
admission for the day following.
When he entered his apartments he
had three things in his hand-a pol
ished milestone which he had pur-
chased for sharpening razors, a ticket,
stamp still mOistened with printing
ink. and check upon the treasury of
the theater for his weekly salary. AS
he laid the latter on the table a gust
Of wind swept it high up in his room
and then deposited it in basin OF
water. Sennefelder dried the wet
paper as we'll as he cou d and then
weighed it down with the milestone
upon which he had before carelessly
placed the printing stamp. When no
returned to his room the following
morning he was asst )nishel at seeing
the letters printed with remarkable
accuracy en- the dampencd paper. A
thought came to him. He wondered
IL by some such means he could not
simplify his work fcontinually copy
Ing the songs of the chorus. He went
out and purchased large stone, COM
menced making experiments, and, as
we all know. finally discovered the
art ofprinting from stone. Il itnogra-

"BOttle Papers'' and Ocean Currents.

'DOCtlo 1ApcES' ana Oce8u currents
In order to add to the exact knowl-
edge of ocean currents there are
forms which are called "bottle papers. :"
On these little papers an invitation,
in six languages, is extended to the
masters Of vessels to enter OCCASION
ally upon the proper lines of the
form the name of the vessel and her
captain, the date, and the ships po.
sition; and then to seal the paper in
bottle and cast it into the sea. In
other lines of this form request is
made, in the same six languages. that
the finder will write clearly the exact
place where, and date when, any bot
tie was picked up, and by whom, and
then forward it to the photographic
Office at Washington, or to any Of
our consulates abroad. These bot
ties, of course, drift in the ocean
currents. Some are picked up soon
after they are thrown overheard,
Others drift for more than a year be-
fore being recovered. They furnish
valuable records for more correctly
fixing the currents already known.
Day az er day these reports are re-
ceived by the meteorological Office;
each one is acknowledged promptly,
and then given to the staff Of work.
ers known as nautical experts.
The result of their labor is that on
the last day Of every month is issued
chart ON which appears all the in
formation received during the month
that haa gone. The chart, then, con-
tains review OF the past month,
and forecast for the month that is
to follow.
The prevailing winds to be expect
ed, and their strength, as foretold by
men Of many years Of experience, are
also given for the month to come.
The various sailing-routes best adapt
ed for that month are mapped OUT
as well as the steamship routes adopt
ed by the principal transatlantic
steamship companies. Every float
ing wreck. with its position when
last reported: each iceberg in its
place as met with during the preced-
ing mouth, and the fog-bankS, deter
mined in the same way, are fixed and
shown by marks. Besides all this,
the latest charts that have been is
sued by the Office, and the last "No-
tices to Mariners" are mentioned.
In the upper left-hand corner is either
little chart prepared in addition on
some subject of timely interest, or
some further remarks about things
upon the great chart itself-St

A Lady Born.

True pOliteness does not consist OF
the artificial airs of the drawing
room, in what is sometimes called
company Manners that continue
so long as there are persons present
to look on whose good opinion is de.
sired, and relapse into barbarism as
soon as the company is gone. 1t is
the Unborn impulse of higher and
nobler nature. Here is an apt illus
tratiOn:-
An aged truckman bent under the
weight of a big roll of carpet. His
bale hook fell from his hand and
bounded into the gutter out of reach
Twenty idle clerks and statesmen saw
the old mans predicament, and
smiled at his look of bewilderment.
No one ventured to help him. A
fashionably dressed young woman
came along, took in the situation at
glance, and without looking to the
right or left stepped into the gutter,
picked up the hook in her dainty,
glOved fingers, and handed it to the
man with a smile. The idlers looked
at each other and at the fair younG
woman.
The old truckman, in violent eff.
fort to express his thanks politely,
lost his hat 1t rolled into the gut.
ter where the hook had been. This
was almost too much for any woman,
young or past young; but this New
York girl was equal to the occasion.
Into the gutter she tripped again and
got the solled hat. When she handed
it to the truckman happy smile
was seen to play about her lips.
''God bless We MISS" the old man
said, as the fair maiden turned her
back on the idlers and went on her
way.
What an example of true polite
ness!

The Fly's Foot.

The foot of a fly is quite as ingeni-
GUS 40 the leg Of bee. 1t is COM
posed of pair OF claws and pair OF
flaps, which form what may be called
the sole OF the foot. Most boys have
made disks of leather, placed a string
through them, wetted them, stamped
them on fiat stones, and then swung
the stones in triumph. The secret
of the lifting power is, Of course, the
pressure of the atmosphere on the
upper surface of the leather, the air
having been expelled from between
the leather and the stone. Well. the
fy's foot acts on the same principle
Each of the flaps has on its lower
surface a large number of minute
trumpet-shaped suckers. These suck
ers are hollow. and down them passes
little sticky substance, which helps
to exclude the air, and like the heavy
boots of diver, assists it in lain
tanning a firm foothold. So that the
fly has three separate appliance -
hooked claws for rough surfaces, at
mospheric pressure flaps for ceilings
and the like. and liquid glue for
smooth window panes. In the au-
tumn the fly, through old age and
general debility, is unable to lift up
its suckers, anG is frequently found
dead and fast moored by its feet.
