REMARKABLE results are reported to
have been obtained in England by
treating wounds with oxygen gas.
Two kinds of micro-organisms are
found in wounds, one kind being be-
neticent and the other injurious in its
effects. Oxygen causes an increase of
the former and decrease of the lat
ter, so that, according to writer in
the British Medical Journal, wounds
treated with oxygen heal more rapidly
and with less pain than by any other
form of treatment.

Mr. HOLMES, the librarian of Queen
Victoria, is making rapid progress
with his life of the queen. 1t is char
acteristic of her majesty's love of thor
oughness that she revises every sheet
of the manuscript herself, and that she
will strike out the slightest biograph-
ical error which may occur. The
queens memory is singularly acute,
and she often surprises her ministers
by correcting them in some detail
which, to them, seems trifling, but
which to her seems all-important

A NEW explanation of the so-called
''canals" of Mars has been offered the
Royal Dublin society by DIR. j. Jolly.
He suggests that in past times cracks
may have been made by the attraction
of small satellites rotating close to the
planets surface, the ''double canals, :"
with their seasonal variations of visl-
bility, being probably mountain
ranges produced by these disturbances.
Such satellites at distance of 20 to so
miles would not exist more than a score
or SO of years, when they would reach
the larger body and be absorbed.

1t is no longer necessary to make the
prison bars so heavy and so hard that
cutting through them becomes very
difficult; but, instead, they are made
simply of pipes, forming part of a
high-pressure water system. Should
any of these pipes be severed, the wa
ter would escape and quickly give
warning of the break.

IT has been ascertained by expert
ments that a number of persons who
use the telephone habitually hear bet
yer with the left ear than with the
right. The common practice of the
telephone companies is to place the re-

left ear. In order to educate the right
ear to the same point of efficiency it is
recommended that the receiver be held
in the right hand half the time.
