The Law of Growth.

DR.. Charles Sedgewick Minot, pro.
fessor of histology and embryoIogy in
the Harvard medical school, backs up
his theory Of the law of growth by the
results of several years of observations
upon guinea pigs, dogs, rabbits, ferrets,
and other small animals, as well as
Boston school children. He says that
In all growing animal organisms, from
the period Of birth to death there Is a
steady loss Of the power to grow, con
trary to the general belief that this loss
begins later in life. The body develops
all the time, but the power to keep up
that deyeloument steadily decreases
after birth, and II decreases much more
rapidly at first than later in life A
guinea pig two days old will gain 10
per cent. of its weight in the next two
days. But the twenty-fiftb addition Of
10 per'c cent. to its weight will take the
pig lightweight days. The law ID the
same with animals and man.

HE CRACKS A WHIP.
hut He Is Phenomenal Artist In ths Use
Of the Lash.

hut He Is Phenomenal Artist In the Use
OF the Lash.
A decided sensation has been created
in Vienna bya man who probably stands
alone in the world in his particular line
of performance. This gentleman's name
is Piskslug, and he is an Austro-H Hun
garian by birth. He is an expert. or.
rather, phenomenal artist, in the use
of the whip.
The first thing he does is to take u
long lashed, stout handled whip in each
hand, and. with orchestral accompani-
ment, proceed to crack or snap them at
terrific rate. The sound made by his
whips in this manner is graduated from
a noise like rifle report TO the soft click
Of a billiard ball 1t makes a curious sort
of music and serves to show how he
can regulate the force of each stroke.
More interest, however, is evinced
when he seizes vicious looking whip
with an abnormally long lash. 1t is pro-
vided with very heavy handle of medi-
um length. This is his favorite toy, and
what he can do with it is really won
derful. He first gives an idea Of what
fearful force there lies in whip lash in
the hands of an expert.
A large frame, over which is stretched
a calf or sheep skin, is brought on the
stage. This is marked with dots of red
paint. The man with the whip steps up,
and, swinging the lash round his head,
let's fly at the calfskin. With every blow
he actually pulls piece right out from
the leather, leaving d clean cut hole.
These pieces are distributed among
the audience to show that there is no
trickery about the performance. After
/ this he takes a frame with three shelves.
On these there are u dozen or more Of
medium sized apples lying very close to-
gether and provided with large numbers.
Any one in the audience may designate
which apple he wishes struck. and the
unerring lash snatches it out like flash.
A still more difficult feat is the snap
ping of coins from narrow necked
bottle. A piece Of silver about the size
of half crown is put over the cork Of
the bottle, which stands on the edge Of
table. The whip artist. without ap-
pearing to take any sort Of aim. sends
the long lash whiZZing through the air
and picks off the coin without jarring
the bottle, much less breaking it. Wi

Fog Horns.

In a communication to the French
Academy Of Sciences an explanation is
given of some Of the hitherto unaccount-
able phenomena pertaining to gdr horns.
1t has been found in regard to acoustic
signals, or sirens, that they are sur
rounded by a neutral zone in which the
sound is not heard at the sea leyel--a
zone more or less distant, according to
the height Of the siren on the coast
and ii has amean width Of about s, 400
feet. On the nearer side OF this zone the
sound is of course heard perfectly, but
whers it is traversed the sound weakens
gradually until it becomes scarcely per-
ceptible, when it increases again, and,
on the zone being left behind, the sound
resumes its full intensity. Experiments
have been made on this line with o
steam vessel, by causing it to approach
or recede from lightship In different
directions and ID a astraight line. in each
course, according to the account pub
lished, the sound was deadened almost
completely in zone whose central line
was about IS. 900 feet from the siren.

How Sand Hills Grow.

A sand hill is not made so much as
planted. Wherever patch Of "marrum
grass" takes root, there the sand blown
from the great bank gathers round it,
AS the sand spreads, the grass grows
through it. until the hard dry blades
form the nucleus Of thousandsof tons Of
"hills. Near Holkham bay there lay
not 40 years ago a wet "lake" inside
the high sand. There the "gunners
used to hide for curlew, digging holes
and filing them with "marrum grass
to make them dry and comfortable.
This grass took root, the sand gathered
round, and where the "lake" lay is now
a tumultuous mass Of rounded hillocks,
rising 20 feet above high water level
built by the "marrum grass" from the
surplus driftings Of the mighty sand. -

When Mr.. Leicht, OF the Paepcke-

twenty-five horses belonging to Mr..
Lelcht's firm would have lost their
lives In the fire which partially destroy
ed Its lumber-yard ON Tuesday night.
The horses were In stable In the rear
of the building in which the fire was
discovered, and though the night
watchman cut their halters they would
not leave the building. Jock seemed
to understand the situation, and. rush
ing into the stalls, drove the animals
out one by one. He barked and bit at
the heels Of the frightened animals.
and did better work than a score OF
men. One OF the animals after he was
outside ran back into the burning sta
BILE and was followed by Jock But the
efforts of the dog were OF no avail; the
horse was fire mad" and was burned
to death.
Jock Is four years old and Is the
nightly companion OF Watchman
Arndt. The dog discovered the iire
and by barking attracted the atten-
tion of the watchman. When his work
of rescue was complete he took up a
position by the yard gate, and neither
streams Of water nor showers Of sparks
would dislodge him from his place.
Jock is of pure Scotch breed, and, ac-
cording to his owner, Tuesday nights
occurrence was not the first exhibition
of intelligence above the ordinary. Sew
eral times he mas arlven suspicious
characters away from the yards, and
