What in the world is to be done with
those otherwise good people who persist in
conversation in using II and sshe'' in the
objectives Most of these people know bet
ter, though some of them are college grad
yates, but they go on saying, "Will you
20 with Dick and to the symphony"
and even, "It was between he and /, !"
though they would never, Of course, say,
stWiIl you go with II" The number of
people who use this solecism is apparently
increasing. Public school teachers use it,
and the sound of it is not altogether unfa-
miliar in what is called good society,
though sine and him did it" is not whit
more ungrammatical than between you
and IL Evidently some people use the
phrase without knowing that they do it,
but why should they? Still other people,
who have been taught that "me and him
went; is not correct, ignorantly suppose
that "between you and me" is also un-
grammatical In this case, of course, the
mistake is due to pure ignorance, and no
one can complain of it, because ignorance
is generally a misfortune rather than a
fault But when people who have been to
school use the nominative case in the OBJ
jective and say between you and l, or
~ will letyou and he know one feels like
projecting some convenient article of fur
niture at them. Perhaps some form OF vi
olence will have to be resorted to in order
to break up the practice. Boston Tran

The Rite of the Tsetse Ely.

Singular indeed is the effect of the bite,
or as the Bocrs call it, the "stick," :" of the
tsetse fly, for the carcass, when examined,
is found to he almost bloodless. The eel
lular tissue under the skin is distended
with air, resembling number of soap
bubbles, the fat is yellowish green and
oily, the heart SO soft that the fingers can
be made to meet through it, the lungs and
liver are diseased, the stomach and bowels
are pale and empty and the gall bladder is
distended with bile. Yet, as Livingstone
says, wild animals nearly akin to the horse
and OK, such as the buffalo and zebra, suf
fer no harm. Neither do pigs, goats and
wild antelopes, but dogs suffer as severely
as horses and oxen.
The skin of an animal which has died
from the tsetse shows all the punctures on
the inside with ring of yellow mucus on
the flesh beneath each puncture as large
as the palm of the hand and resembling
the appearance of snake bite. No certain
remedy is known for the puncture of this
terrible f1y.-Chambers' Journal.

Photographinr tho Sea Bottom.


Experiments have been made in France
which promise considerable success in sub
marine photography. A specially con-
structed camera was carried down by a
diver to depth of 22 or 23 feet, and with
an exposure of half an hour negatives were
obtained which, although showing lack
of depth, were fairly satisfactory.
1t was found that the best results were
obtained by placing blue glass in front
of the lens. 1t is intended to have lenses
specially constructed for under water work.
Instantaneous photographs of the sea
bottom during storm have been obtained
with the aid of flash light. This light
was furnished by an alcohol lamp fed from
q reservoir of oxygen. Magnesium powder
was projected into the flame through a
tube from the shore. 1t is thought that
such flashlight photographs may be made
at any depth to which diver can 60

Rcd Hair and sunstrolse.

Nobody ever heard of redheaded man
being sunstruck. Why red head should
afford any protection from the rays Of the
sun or give its owner immunity from one
of the most singular affections that hui
manity is heir to is one of those mysteries
that even the doctors cannot fathom, but
the fact remains that men with red hair
can stand almost any amount of exertion
in or out of doors during the hottest wealth
er and never feel any serious results from
it.-St. Louis Globe Democrat.
