FORTUNES OF PHYSICIANS.

The late Sir William Jenner, of Lon
don, left large personal estate, valued
at Sl,S75,0O0.
DR.. Thomas Armitage left over ST.
0G0.000, but the bulk of this was certain
ly not professional earnings.
Dr.. Paul, of Camberwen, amassed
over 100000, but he owned one if not
two, lucrative private lunatic asylums.
Sir William Bowman, the ocuIist; Sir
Prescott Hewett, Sir George Paget and
Sir Risdon Bennett left substantial for
tunes, but all were well under the $780,
600 mark
Sir William Gull died in 1890, leaving
S,720,ll0 behind him. This, of course,
was the result Of professional fees,
large proportion of which for a long
series of years had been exceilently in
vested.
The late Sir Andrew Clark left s ,o34,-
465. Sir Andrew sank good round sum
in real estate. Another big fortune was
Sir Oscar Clayton's, about $T35 900, and
yet another, of quite recent date. Sir
Richard Quain's, about s5s5 900.
There has been speculation as to what
incomes some professional doctors
earned; $4,000 or SEQ 900 a year is "A
big income for professional man. but
at one time Sir William Gull's profess
sional fees most certainly averaged
$1,000 week, If not more, while Sir An
drew Clark's takings at the zenith of
his career must have amounted to an
average Of over $500 for every six
working days.

81. Louis. he said. being the most inn
portant commercial city and the me
tropolis of this great tract. had under
taken to give the country such an
exposition as it had never known be-
fore. He said the country needed more
of these expositions: that they were
abettors TO civilization and lifted the
people to higher plane of living. lie
believed that the country should have
one mammoth exposition similar to the
worlds fair at least every ten years.

gates to the transmississippi congress,
| in order to get the influence and CO
operation of the delegates from the

OF A SCIENTIFIC SORT.

Horses, giraffes and ostriches have
the largest eyes OF all terrestrial ami
mails, but among marine animals there
are cephalopods, or ink fishes, which
have eyes as large as plate.
A mixture of ice and salt is colder
than the ice alone, because in all cases
of saline solution without chemical
change heat is absorbed from the solv-
ent. The salt is taken into solution by
the water on the ice. and heat is taken
up, and thus the temperature OF the
mixture is lower than the temperature
of the ice alone.
One OF the divisions of the United
States fish commission has Investigated
q number Of problems connected with
oysters and their culture, and has re-

vegetable matter used by the oysters
for food, and in no way Injuries the edi-
BILE qualities of the biyalve.
Wood crackles when it is ignited be-
cause the air expanded by heat forces
it's way through the pores of the wood
with cracking noise. Green wood
makes less swapping than dry, because
the pores contain less air, being filed
with sap and moisture, which extin-
gushes the flame, whereas the pores of
dry wood are filled with air, WHICH sup
ports combustion.

Prof. j. b. johnson, of Washington

floor beams from brick walls, when ex-
posed to fire, and finds that, under such
circumstances, they soon become red
hot, and then burn their way rapidly
through the end of the beam, while, at
tire same time, they soften and bend
down, the result being that the beam
drops out of its bearing in is or 20 min
