GIVING the height OF the Venetian
VI Venus, five feet five inches as the ac-
cepted perfect stature for a woman
here is how you may know whether you
are perfect specimen Of your own sex
by applying other rules laid down by
authorities:
For a woman five feet five inches, 1873
pounds is the proper weight, and Ii she he
wei formed she can stand another ten
pounds without greatly showing it. When
her arms are extended she should measure
from tip of middle finger to tip of mih-
die finger just five feet five inches, exactly
her own height. The length of her
hand should he just tenth OF that and her
foot just seventh.
The distance from the elbow to the
middle finger should be the same as the
distance from the elbow to the middle
of the chest. From the top of the head
to the chin should be Just the length
OF the foot, and there should be the
same distance between the chin and the
armpits. A woman OF this height should
measure twenty-four inches about the
waist and thirty-fOur inches about the bust,
i ifmeasured under the arms, and forty thr ec
il over them. The upper arm should meas
ure thirteen inches and the wrist six. The
calf of the leg should measure fourteen and
one-half inches, and the thigh twenty-five

mas succeeded in rendering directly visible
The rays discovered by Prof Roentsen
The observation made by Prof. Salvioui. an
Italian physicist. that lenses are only in n
very slight degree penetrable by Roent-
gems rays, suggested to Dr. Brandes the
'dea that iavfsibility might be due to
circumstances connected with this fact
He accordingly resolved TO test the effect
OF Roentgen's rays on Ienseless eyes
There are many people who have had the
lenses or their eyes removed as a remedy
for extreme shortsigbtedness or for catar-
act. A girl who had had this operatio lon
performer on both eyes, but n whose right
eye remnant OF the lens had been lert
allowed the experiment To be tried upon
her.
Prof. Dorm, whom DIR. Brandes had in
terested i'll the investigation. subjected
the girl quite Unexpectedly to the rays.
and when the strong current passed throu yh
the tube, which had been totally darken-
ed, she declared that she saw a light with
her left eye. Profs. Dorm and Brandes at
first thought it possible that a spark had
leaped across, but when this had been rem
dered impossible the girl continued to de-
clare that she saw light
ON further trying the experiment. the
two servants saw the light too. They then
continued their Investigations and ascer-
tained that Roentgen's rays really affect
the retina. If we place our head. com
pietely enclosed in an entirely opaque
vessel. near tile source of the rays, we see
light even with the closed eyes, and we
see ii most clearly at the periphery More
over, we continue to see it even when a
large aluminium plate, which would COM
pletely exclude electric rays. is placed be-
tween Hittorf tube and the eye. Utter.

known, is only in slight degree penetrat-
