How Sugar Melts.

HOW sugar mele0s
II We drop a lump of sugar into Gun
Of tea, we find it takes q considerable
time to melt if allowed to remain at the
bottom Of the vessel, but If we hold il
up In the spoon near the surface of the
liquid it dissolves much more speedily.
This Is owing to the sugar, as it melts,
rendering the portion Of the tea con-
tanning It heavier. The sweetened part,
therefore, descends, leaving the sugar
constantly in contact with unsweetened
or only partially sweetened tea, in fact,
q continual circulation of fluid is pro-
noted until the whole is dissolved.
When the sugar is placed or permitted
to lie at the bottom Of the cup, it dis
solves until the layer Of fluid next it is
thoroughly sweetened or saturated, when
it practically ceases to dissolve any fur
Their, the sweetened and heavier stratum
above it acting for considerable time,
until the law Of diffusion comes grad
ually into play, like an impervious COW
ering in keeping back the lighter un-
sweetened fluid above.
Hence the reason also why stirring, in
breaking up the saturated layer and al
lowing access to the unsweetened por-
ton, is 30 effectual in bringing about
the uniform sweetening of tea. Life is
not infrequently sweetened by the same
stirring up process. -Brooklyn Eagle.

Feacoclks' Feather.

Peacocks' feathers have been handed
down to us from the ancient days of
mythology as mathematical of treachery,
evil and misfortune. The origin of this
strange superstition is founded upon the
following classical story: Osiris, king
of Egypt, upon starting on his Indian e1-
petition, left his queen, Isis, regent, with
Argus, his minister, as her chief adviser.
Argus, with his hundred eyes, or rather
his spies, soon made himself so formi-
dable and powerful that he seized the
queen regent, shut her up in q strong
castle and proclaimed himself king of
Egypt. Mercury was sent against him
with q strong army, took him captive
and cut off his head, whereupon Juno
metamorphosed him into peacock and
Get his spies in his tail. From this legend
and the various additions made to it
from time to time the belief has arisen
thatit is unlucky to havepeacocks' feath-
ers inside q house.-Brooklyn Eagle.

Human limitations OF Vegetables.

Human limitations OF Vegetables.
Referring to the fact that the human
head is sometimes facetiously and IT.
reyerently spoken of as "a cocoanut, I"
the Boston Transcript remarks that sci
entists have recently discovered a re-
markable resemblance between the shell
Of the fruit and the shell of the human
brain. Then it quotes French scien-
tific periodical to prove that there is q
wonderful likeness between other hu-
man organs and vegetable products.
For example, the meat Of the English
walnut is a close copy Of the form and
convolutions Of the brain; plums and
cherries are like the eye; almonds are
shaped like the nose; the ear is brought
to mind by an opened oyster and shell;
in a mammoth squash the entire body
may be traced; the open hand is found
in growing scrub willow and celery, and
the heart is seen in the German turnip
and the eggplant.
