THE PRINCE OF PHYSICISTS,

Among the members who crossed the
Atlantic to attend the. meeting 81 the
British scientists at Toronto Lord KEEL
win claims especial mention AZ the
prince Of physicists. At the Montreal
meeting he was Sir William Thomson.
His present title was conferred in 1892
He was born at Belfast. Ireland. in
1924, and was educated at the univer-
stiles of Glasgow and Cambridge. In
1S46 he was appointed professor Of ma
tural philosophy in the University Of
Glasgow, where he still remains. His
papers on electricity and magnetism
published from time to time have been
many and masterful. He, edited the
Cambridge and Dublin Mathematical
Journal from 1916 to 1853 and has for
many years been the leading editor Of
the Philosophical Magazine. He was
president Of the British association for
the Advancement OF Science In 1871 and
the Royal Society Of London in 1891.
Lord Kelvin has been active as an en-
9ineer and inventor. It was in great
part due to his skill in solving the
many intricate problems involved In
marine telegraphy that transoceanic
signaling became such success that
he was knighted in 1885, The best
known of his many inventions are bis

Cholera 1nfantum.

No one supposed that cholera infau-
tum is wilfully caused by mothers or
persons who have infants in charge:
yet in some places large proportion
of all children born die of that dis
ease. That 1t results from causes
which are preventable are shown by
several facts: g
(1) Among the higher classes OF peo-
pie the mortality is very much less
than among the less intelligent and
less provident.
(2) Infants who are nourished only
by mothers milk are almost wholly
exempt from cholera infantum.
(3) The disease Is undoubtedly caused
by, changes in the infants food or
drink, due to bacteria, fungi, or soms
sort of micro-organisms.
Diarrhoea.- What is true of cholera
infantuma u, in great part, true Of d.
arrhoea. The great cause Of infant
mortality is largely due to ignorance
and carelessness on the part Of those
who. hare the care Of children,
It ought TO be. known to every per-
son who has the care Of child during
the hottest day OF July and August
that a good light. clean, dry, warm
flannel over the entire abdomen is a
very important article for every child
who is in danger Of any bowel trouble.
The rapid evaporation Of perspiration,
and the consequent serious GOODNESS. OF
the abdomen. can be prevented by the
flannel. .

a TAME butterfly,
Uow 1t Was Kept, Trained and Fee
for Several Months.

Uow 1t Was Kept, Trained and Fee
for Several Months.
The butterfly seems to be born and
to die three times; but it is only q case
OF progressive development, accom-
plished in the midst Of an apparent tor
Dor. The caterpillar already contains
the rudiments Of all the forms that 1t
10 to take on in succession. The
anatomist discovers in 1t three crea-
lures, one encased within the other;
and the third is enveloped In double
winding sheet, which 1t finally throws
OF, to appear in all its beauty. One
cold. bleak November morning, when
all nature wore the sullen aspect OF the
English climate at that season. lady
that had just risen from bed OF sick
ness, went into an adjoining apart
ment. where she was astonished ana
delighted to perceive beautiful but
terdy In the window. As the sun came
out for brief space, 1t huttered JOY
ously about the window. and impaired
to the sick room an air Of cheerfulness
and hope. Towards evening the tiny
creature dropped Its wings, and the
lady placed 1t in a glass tumbler on the
mantelpiece. During the night hard
frost came on; the room was very
cold, and in the morning the butterfly
lay In the bottom Of the tumbler ap-
parently dead. The invalid, grieved
that her gentle companion OF the pre-
W HoVv at,0 mace
some effort to restore its fragile exist
ence. She put it in her own warm
hand, and, breathing upon 1t, perceived
that 1t gave signs of returning ANNA
ton; she thence once more placed II
in the glass tumbler on the rug before
the fire.
Soon the little insect spread out Its
many-colored wings and flew to the
window, where the sun was shining
brightly. BY and by, when the sun re-
tired, the window-panes grew cold, anu
the butterfly sunk down on the carpet
again, apparently lifeless. The same
means were used to restore animation
and with the same success. This al
formation Of life and death went on
for many days, till at last the little
thing became quite tame, and seemed
to be acquainted with its benefactress.
When she went to the window and held
out her finger, it would, Of its own &C.
cord, hop upon it; sometimes 1t would
settle for an hour at time upon her
hand or neck when she was reading or
or writing. Its food consisted OF
honey, a drop Of which the lady would
put upon her hand, when the butter
fly would uncurl it's sucker and gradu-
ally sip 1t up; then it usually slipped
drop Of water in the same way. The
feeding took place only once In three
or four days. In this manner Its ex-
istence was prolonged through the
whole winter and part Of the following
spring. AS 1t approached the end OF
its career. its wings became trans
parent and its spirits apparently de-
jected. 1t would rest quietly In the
tumbler even when the sun was wooinS
it to come out, and at last. one morn
ing in April, 1t was found dead.

Until quite recently there were twelve
casks Of hook, in the German city Of
Bremen, christened the Twelve Apos-
ties, which had been In the possession
Of the municipality for two centuries
or more. 1t was the privilege Of ev-
cry ratepayer who entertained dis
tinguished guest, or had serious ill.,
ness in his house, to apply for bot
tie Allied from one Of these famous
.Aums; and 1t has been computed that,
taking out of storage and other ex-
penses into consideration, the cost Of
