Why Snow Is White.

The pure white luster of snow Is due
to the fact that all the elementary col
ors of light are blended together in the
radiance thrown off from the surface
of the crystal. 1t Is quite possible to
examine the individual snow crystals
In such a way as to detect these sew
eral colors before they are mingled to-
gether to constitute the compound I'm
preston of whiteness upon the eye.
The soft whiteness Of the snow Is also
in some degree attributable to the large
quantity of air entangled amid the
frozen particles. Snow Is composed of
great number Of minute crystals,
more than thousand distinct forms Of
which have been enumerated by va
rious observers. These crystals and
prlsms reflect all the compound rays
of which white light consists. Sheets
of snow on the ground are known to
reflect beautiful pink and blue tlnts
under certain angles of sunshine, and
to fling back so much light as to be
painful to the eyes

The Royal William.

A tablet was erected two or three
years ago in the great hall Of the Par.
lament Buildings, Ottawa, eommem.
Grating the fact that the Royal VIII.
lam, built In Canada In 1888 by James
Gondie, was the first vessel which
crossed the Atlantic propelled entirely
by steam. In 1918 a ship called the
Curacao Is stated to have made the
voyage from Helvoetsluis, In Holland,
to Surinam and Curacao, occupying
thlrty-two days on the voyage, In elev-
en- of which she was under steam. In
the same year the Rising Sun, steam
er built by Lord Cochrane, crossed the
Atlantic. A year later vessel named
the Savannah crossed from the port of
that name to London; but owing to the
wood that she carried for fuel running
short, she was compelled to cover the
greater part of the distance by the aid
of her sails. The successful Inaugural
tion, however, of transatlantic steamer
Is due to the Great Western steamer,
built for the Great Western Steamship
Company by ]. X. Brunei. The Great
Western was 212 feet long, 35 feet 4
inch beam, and registered 1,340 tons.
Her engines were of 40 horse power.
The Great Western started from Bris-
tol on Sunday, the Sth Of April, 1886,
and completed her voyage across the
Atlantic In fourteen days, arriving at
New York on the 23d of April, the same
day as the Sirius, which had started
four days before her.

Frog, Eating in France.

The French have never been frog
eaters to the extent that is commonly
supposed. With them the taste for this
reptile Is rather epicurean than popu-
lar. Myriads of frogs are, so to speak,
wasted in the country because of want
of zeal In catching them. In some Of
the most 'froggy" parts of France at
night the croaking of the reptiles over
powers every other sound; but the crea-
lures might live to n good old age and
their hind-legs grow as tough as string
for all the Inconvenience they are put
to by the human enemy. The taste for
this food depends greatly upon the To-
cality; and even then frogs leg are n
dish for the gourmet rather than for
the workman or the peasant. The legs
are occasionally hawked about Paris
on skewers; but they are by no means
cheap, and they appeal to the person
whose cultivated and jaded appetite
needs tempting rather than to the hun
cry proletary.
