scorpion, but the TACT seems to be That'
it is no more dangerous than that Of
the honey bee. This remark applies to,
the scorpions of the United States,
which in Arizona and elsewhere III the
southwest are sufficiently numerous
and formidable. In tropical regions
however, larger species of scorpions oc-
cur, and these, having poison glands,
are more dangerous. Sometimes, as is
the case also with tarantulas, they are
brought to the northern states in
lunches of bananas, and are apt under
such circumstances 10 create surprises.
But, though the sting of scorpion
causes much swelling and pain, there
is no authentic case of death resulting
therefrom.
Half a dozen years ago DR.. Maus, U.
S. A., sent to the war department an
extended report on the subject of the
scorpions of Durango, Mexico, which
he described as so virulent as to cause
very many deaths annually. Accord
ing to his account, the city council of
Durango made standing offer of rs
centayos for every 100 scorpions with u
small advance on this price for females,
and from so coo TO 60 900 dead ones were
delivered annually for the bounty.
Subsequent estimony seems to shows
that evilly-disposed persons in Durango
went out of their way to stuff" DIR.
Maus, and that the extensive mortality
reported by him was imaginary,
a great deal has been said, particu-
larly in newspapers, about the danger
Gus character of. centipedes, but mcst
testimony of this kind seems to be er-
roneous. The notion that the legs of
centipede are poisonous, 50 that it
leaves trail of fire when it runs over
the skin, is an absurdity. Also in the
class OF lies may be put the statement
that centipede when surrounded by
ring of fire will sting itself 10 death.
The centipede bites with IFS jaws, but
its poison gland is small

in close contact. A little chamber
in the block which presses the paper
upon the cylinder is filled with com
pressed air, and whenever q perfora
ton in the paper enters this space
the air passes through. This air
pressure thus admitted releases the
internal mechanism aud pushes u
matrix for single type or character
into position before the casting box.
The position of the perforation on
the paper determines the type which
is to be cast. A plunger forces
molten type metal into the matrix
and cast is made, after which the
letter is pushed into line. The
spaces are east all of uniform thick
ness, in given line, and when the

When the galley is filled or the

The errors are corrected, not by re-
setting the whole line and risking
another error, but by casting the
necessary characters singly and set
