Thriving on Strychnine.

A correspondent of Nature recently
noted this singular fact in connection
with strychnia: Some wheat which
had been poisoned by soaking in solu-
ton Of strychnine, and which was in
tended for killing sparrows, after hav-
ing been kept for some time in card
board boxes was found to have become
infested with weevils. On examination
it was found that the boxes were full
Of weeyils and their eXcrement and the
wheat was more than half eaten. Strych-
nine was found to be present in the
wheat, and i'll apparently still larger
proportion in the excrement of the
weevils, so that it had evidently passed
through the digestive apparatus I'M
changed. When so little as from half
to threefourths of Il grain of the aka
lOid is sufficient to kill strong man,
the difference between the role played
by the alkaloid becomes very striking.
1t has been found that tho weevil An
thonumus druparum can feed with I'M
punity on kernels containing hydrouy-
anic acid, while the same acid admin
istered to caterpillars Of Deiopela pull

Eyesight and Electric Light,

Among the phases of modern scien-
tific methods calling for special study
is the deprecated eyesight in the case
of sailors due to the brilliant electric
lights used on shipboard Gray and
blue eyes, not being heavily charged
with pigments, are found to be the most
subject to injury. Resort is had by those
working the searchlights to the wearing
of dark blue glasses. These, however,
while tending to mitigate the intensity
of the light, fail to absorb the source of
the trouble-namely, the ultraviolet
rays. The latter, nevertheless, can be
intercepted by goggles or screens of
uranium or yellow glass, and these, it
is expected, will i'll course of time be
extensively introduced. Operators with
the electric drill-burning out holes in
a hardened steel plate-have sometimes
had to be treated for intense pain and
partial blindness. This kind of drill as
is known, acts by fusing hole through
the steel, and the intensity of the light
is greatly increased by the rays thrown
off by the molten metal. The use of
dark glasses by those engaged in this
kind of work has proved great boon
i'll obviating its otherwise disastrous eff
fects. A singular feature of the injury
done to the eyesight is remarka BILE
similarity to snow or desert blindness,
being, as in these, probably due to the
ultraviolet rays Of the spectrum. New

"But presently MY eyes were blinded
by many small mirrors, as it seemed to
me, casting a dozen shadows in my eyes

them to cast these shadows. They were
grimacing, comforting their faces and

hypnotist might say, What do you

"Then | found out that these silent
men had once been the vociferative,
shouting hackmen who make themselves
so omnipresent on the platform stations
of most small towns The good people
of Princeton determined to live in peace
and quiet, and, by act of the city coun-
Gil they prohibited the hackmen from
using their voices. But even this did
not abate the nuisance. The hackmen
would run up to the train and almost
carry away their patrons by force So
the city council passed law forbidding
them to stand on the platform. Deprived
of speech and power of locomotion,
these hackmen had a happy thought.
Each one bought a bright tin plate and
had the name of his hotel embossed on
the plate i'll raised letters. So they all
stand there, waving their tin plates and

Even Drop of Lemonade Is Sufficient to

American girls are fond of pearls and

the possessors of these gems that pearls
are regarded as "well' or ell" from a

beings they require fresh air to be kept

tions, and yet they are not exposed to
the chances of discoloration by being

1t is easier to keep pearls in fair con-
dition when they are set in lacepin

Worn when there is likelihood of being

About a month ago the owner of a
beautiful pink pearl worn in finger
ring was alarmed to find the stone was
darkening and becoming covered with
an Opaque dark crust. She took it to her
jeweler, who pronounced it a case Of
"scale. He told her the delicate sub
stance had been in contact with some
acid, and as she insisted this had not
happened he reminded her that a drop
OF lemonade would be sufficient to do
the mischief. She then remembered
drinking lemonade while the ring was
on her ungloved hand.
The only remedy for scale is remov.
al of whole layer of the pearl. This is
an excessively delicate business, which
should be done by an expert workman,
and never undertaken by apprentice
hands. 1t is a costly business and re-
duces the size and value of the pearl

FRUIT CLEANING MACHINE.
may be yielding and flexible one, not
liable to injure the rinds, and the fruit
is passed out through a delivery spout
at the opposite end of the machine.
The Popular Science News gives a
very simple and effective way of clean
ing rusted iron articles, no matter how
badly they are rusted. 1t consists, accord
ing to Carl Herring in attaching piece
of ordinary zinc to the articles and then
letting them lie in water to which a
little sulphuric acid is added. They
should be left immersed for several days
or a week until the rust has entirely
disappeared, the time depending on how
deeply they We're rusted. If there is
much rust, little sulphuric.acid should
be added occasionally. The essential
part of the process is that the zinc must
be i'll good electrical contact with the
iron. A good way is to twist an iron
wire tightly around the object and con-
meet this with the zinc, for which a
remnant of a battery zinc is suitable, as
it has a binding post. Besides the sim
pllclty OF this process it has the great
advantage that the iron itself is not at
tackled in the least as long as the zinc
is i'll good electrical contact with it.
When there is only a little rust, the gal
vanized iron wire wrapped around the
object will take the place of the zinc,
provided the acid is not too strong. The
articles will come out a dark gray or
black color and should then be washed
thoroughly and oiled.

of velvet, which has heretofore been rel,
