New Filllng for thermometers.

Quicksilver, with which thermome-
tiers are ordinarily filled. is not as use
full as it might be, from the fact that
Just when it is wanted to register an
extraordinary degree of frost it has a
knack of becoming solid. Alcohol,
which is used for the same purpose,
frequently contains water, SO that its
registration can never be altogether
depended on. A new filing has been
discovered. 1t is called by chemists
"tuluol," and is highly spoken of. 1t
is extracted from coal tar. 1t con-
tains absolutely no water, can stand
a much lower temperature than quick
silver without freezing, and when ex-
posed to warmth extends with great
regularity. Besides possessing these
admirable properties, it is very cheap;
and as 1t is much lighter than quick
silver the tube of the thermometer can
be made much larger than is now
usual, and thus 1t will not only be
much easier to read the record, but
greater exactitude in registrations will
be secured. The dark blue color OF
tuluo, is another element which will
contribute to the ease of reading the
thermometer

1t IL Well Developed in Dogs. Cats and
Other Animals.
Animals get rid of their parasites by
using dust, mud, clay, etc. Those suf-
fering from fever restrict their diet,
keep quiet. seek dark, airy places,
drink water and sometimes plunge into
1t. When dog has lost his appetite it
eats that species of grass known as
dogs grass, which acts as an emetic
and a purgative. Cats also eat grass.
Sheep and cows when Ill seek out cer-
tain herbs. An animal suffering from
chronic rheumatism always keeps as
far as possible In the sun. The war
rior ants have regularly organized am
balances. Latrellie cut the antennn
of an ant and other ants came and COW
cred the wounded part with q trans
parent fluid secreted in their mouths.
When an animal has wounded leg
or arm hanging on, 1t completes tie
amputation by means of its teeth. A
dog being stung on the muzzle by a
viper was observed to plunge its head
repeatedly for several days into rum
ming water. The animal eventually
recovered. A terrier hurt his right
eye. 1t remained under counter,
avoiding light and heat, although II
habitually kept close to the fire. II
adopted general treatment-rest and
abstinence from food. The loca'
treatment consisted In licking the up
per surface of the paw, which it applied
to the wounded eve.
Animals suffering from traumati'
fever treat themselves by the continued
application of cold water, which M. De
launey considers to be more certain
than any of the other methods. IL
view Of these interesting facts, we are
he thinks, forced TO admit that hygien'
and therapeutics as practiced by AMI
mails may, in the interest of physiol
ogy, be studied with advantage.
Many physicians have been keen oh
servers of animals, their diseases ant
