A Human Rat Tran,

A recently issued patent in the way
OF traps for rats, mice, etc., is worthy
Of particular notice. The inventor de-
scrtbes ordinary traps as Eat best in

NAL more or less quickly, subjecting it
to torture arising from its imprison-
ment, as well as the possibly much
greater torture arising from the con-
temptation of it's impending fate" and
adds that these animals soon become
very shrewd, it often happening that
after few have been caught and
killed the others become so knowing
that it is impossible to tempt them
into traps with any kind of bait" AS
more humane and efficient method of
Kidding house Of these pests, the in
ventor provides a trap which, as the
rat goes into its wide open entrance,
will spring upon the body of the rat an
elastic band, to- which are attached
bells and punches or tufts of cotton or
other material, painted or coated with
phosphorescent paint. The rat, 1t is
claimed, will then Immediately run
away with the bells tinkling and the
plumes waving, so frightened that he
will make tour of all his holes and
runways, meeting all his brethren and
frightening them by the sound of the
bells, the phosphorescent tufts, and his
fantastic appearance" 1t would not
be strange if this being kept up for a
short time would drive all the rats
away.

What Are sun snntaa

At recent meeting of the ROYAL
Dublin Society Pro. j. Jolly presented
a new theory of sun-spots. He sue-
gested that there may be certain levels
in the brilliant shell of hot vapors con-
stituting the visible surface of the sun
where the temperature, although very
high, falls below the critical tempera-
ture of the elements there present. In
that case those elements would he nra-
eipitated into liquids, If the pressure
were sufficiently great. Such liuuefIed
masses, floating in gaseous matter NJ
greater density, would, he thinks nre-
sent the characteristic appearance Of
sun-spots, for if the liquid were OPAQUE
1t would look darker than the sur
rounding philosophers. When the liouid
re-evaporates, the spot disappears
This theory implies that the sun-snots
are the first visible beginnings Of
change of state in the sun.

the Continent of EurOpe-A Time

The Fruit Cure.

The so-called fruit cure" although
aot much heard Of in England, says
Nature, is well recognized at various
places on the Continent. where So
Jailed grape cure stations have been
established. In recent number of
Modern Medicine and ARCHAEOLOGICAL
Review there is an interesting article
IN the subject, in which the historical
SIDE OF the question is dealt with. Thus
we are told that many medical author
ties in the tenth century became en-
'husiastic in their writings over the
remarkable curative virtues Of grapes,
while certain Van Swieten, of a more
modern date, is said to have recon-
mended in special cases the eating of
twenty pounds of strawberries a day."
Inc same gentleman also reports case
Of phthisis healed by Strawberries, and
cites cases in which maniacs have re-
gained their reason by the exclusive
use OF cherries in food! These instances
rather SAVIOR of the miraculous; but
there is no doubt that the so-called
grape cure, for indigestion and other
evils, Is carried on in many places on
the Continent, and that people betake
themselves to Meran, Vevey, Bingen,
or to Italy and the south of France
with the intention of devoting six
weeks to the cure, during which time
they are expected to have gradually
accomplished the feat of consuming
from three to eight pounds of grapes
daily, as the case may be. Grapes are
said to exercise a salutary action on
the nervous system and to favor the
formation Of fat; that is to say, when
fruit Of good quality is employed; If
the grapes are not sufficiently ripe, and
are watery and sour, the patient may
lose rather than gain in weight. DR..
kellogg, director of the Sanitarium
Hospital and Laboratory Of Hygiene
at Battle Creek, Mich, is of opinion that
the valuable results obtained by a fruit
diet in cases of biliousness which he
has observed are due to the fact that
noxious germs habitually present in the
alimentary canal do not thrive in fruit
juices.

Of the apparatus is conveyed to the
