Borrowing a Posture.

An old woman, whose husband was
ill in bed, sent for the doctor, who
came and saw the old lady. r,'

said ON leaving, (which must be taken
in a recumbent posture"
After he had gone the old woman sat
down, greatly puzzled.
"a recumbent posture-a recumbent

p~osture!!' she repeated. 81 haven't got
one At last she thought, Il will GO
and see if old Mrs. Smith has got one
to lend me-"
Accordingly, she went, and. said to
her neighbor:
"Have you a recumbent posture to
lend me to put some medicine in?"
Mrs. Smith, who was equally as ig-
norant as her friend, replied:
II had one, but to tell you the truth,
I've lost it.'-Tit-Bits.

Some interesting Investigations have
recently been carried on by physicians
and scientists, intended to prove the
lOng-suspected relation which mosqui-
toes bear to malaria. Enough has
been done to demonstrate clearly the
fact that the night air is not the real
enemy, but the mosquitoes which en-
ter when the windows are open. Per-
Ons wen in the most malarious of
countries, who wear gauze wells by day
and who sleep under nets at night, re-
main i%mpervious to the evils of the eli
mate, proving that insects, not the air,
have caused the trouble. A limited OBJ
servation has shown that babies suffer
something more than the mere local
irritation when an insect has stung
them and many remember how gener-
ally miserable they have been after
several bites. The conclusion reached,
therefore, can hardly cause great sur
prise and since they add more proof in
favor of open windows and fresh air at
night, most ~will5accept them gladly.
One of the few Englishmen whose
name is known all over the world for
his scientific discoveries, is Prof. D. E.
Hughes. His printing telegraph in
strument, now in use throughout the
continent, dates from 1857; his mi
crophone dates from a paper read to
the Royal society May 9, 1878; his dis
covery of the remedy for induction
and cross-talk on telephone wires by
the use of twisted wire arrangements,
now universally used, from March II,
1879; his induction balance, from May
5, 1879. Since then he has read nu-
merous papers before the Royal society
and elsewhere upon magnetism and
the like. His whole early career was
devoted to establishing his printing
telegraph instrument on all the i'm
portant telegraph lines of the CONT
nent, for which the different govern
ments have bestowed upon him nine
of their highest decorations. He very
generously abandoned to the public his
rights to the celebrated ~microphone,
out of which he might have made a
large fortune.

Used His Brains.

:, Some time ago a brakeman on the
Baltimore & Ohio Rail Road used his
brains and saved a passenger train
from running into two detailed cars.
The Company SEN him Il check for $50

him for his quickness of thought.
A few days ls'er, Engineer John
Hagerty was oiling his engie at, Con-
nellsville,. while waiting for the pas
sengers 10 alight. He heard another
train coming, and believed that it was
not under proper control. He sprang
into his cab, opened the throttle ano
started his,ttrain!r The other engine
struck the rear car, but it was not q
hard blow land Hagerty's promptness
saved ten or a dozen lives.
The Company, has ordered a hand

and a gold chain for Engineer Hagerty,

Luminosity of Gas Nantes.
water.

The delicate white nantes used in
Welsbach lamps consist Of a mixture
OF two rare earths-thoria and ceria.
For some reason not yet clearly under
stood, these substances must be com
bined in a definite proportion in order
that they shall give the maximum of
light. Pure thoria, or pure ceria,
made into a mantle, gives only about
one-eleventh as much light as a mantle
containing SO per cent of thoria and
1 per cent of ceria. The remarkable
thing is that sc slight a quantity of
ceria added to the thoria should so
enormously increase the illumination,
especially in view of the fact that a
combination of equal quantities of
thoria and ceria gives practically no
light, becoming barely red-hot in the
gas flame.

One of the browning achievements Of
the nineteenth century is bringing
light into dark places. This does not
mean sending tracts to the heather in
Africa, but the use of prisms for il
Eliminating easements, apartments and
the like. When a ray of light passes
from one transparent medium, such as
glass or water, to another, it undergoes
a change of direction at the surface of
separation. This change of direction
OF light rays is called ~refraction. The
knowledge of this property of light has
been utilized in the new prism
method of lighting buildings. The
natural light of a room comes d.
rectly from the sky, and, striking the
foor within ten or twenty feet of the
window, is almost entirely lost. The
quantity of light utilized is very small
in comparison with that which enters
the window. In the new system now
very extensively used, the light is re-
ceived upon a plate of prisms, and,
under the laws of refraction, is divert
ed and borne back into the room. No
light is lost. None is created. But
through the prisms daylight is diffused
uniformly throughout the interior
space. Architects and owners have
been quick to see the great practical
value of a simple, certain method, Of
giving to interiors the great desidera-
tum of natural light. Prisms, without
loss, without any cost of maintenance,
displace gas and electric lights, and in
their place give natural and wholesome
light. The prisms are generally used
vertically and bring the sky, as it we're,
to the window. They have nothing to
do with refiectors. They are squares
of clear crystal glass, scientifically
formed, having one prismatic surface
electro-glazed. 1t has been shown that
they increase the light Of a room from
five to twenty-five times. They are
%fire-proof and are stronger than plate
glass. A Canadian named Pennyquick
invented the prism plates.

A most exciting cat fight occurred re-
Gently in the back room of n. Bergmey-
er's saloon. Thirteen cats met there,
presumably to discuss plans by which
they could effectually disturb midnight
slumbers, when in the midst of the dis
cussion, and while a large tomcat was
making an impassioned address, a dis
pute arose, and the fun began. Fur
flew and a din was raised that aroused
the town. 1t was dangerous to attempt
10 quell the riot, as the cats seemed
perfectly wild. After a few minutes
they ceased from utter exhaustion, and
three cats lay stone dead, the others
staggering on to their various homes.
They presented such an appearance
Of intoxication, that George Notes, the
barber, made an investigation, ana
found that the cats had been drinking
beer which had been left in a keg in
a corner Of the room. He determined
to watch the cats, and late that night
saw a cat walk into the room and slyly
creep to the keg, where it drank until
hilarious. This story may appear in

New Life Saving Device.

There was recently a successful trial
in st. Katherine's Docks, London, of a
method of rendering boats unsuitable
the invention of Mr.. E. S. Norris
a method which is as simple as it is
effective. Supposing that he wishes
to apply the invention to a lifeboat
which is already fitted with water-tight
compartments, he would fill those
spaces with an adequate number of
closed tubes, each only a few inches
long, made of some strong impervious
material such as waterproof paper. But
a boat with such compartments is not
necessary, for the little cases can be
held in a canvas band which can be
nailed along the sides of any ordinary
rowboat, and render it quite unsinka-
BILE. The principle ear also be applied
to ~lifeboats and buoys-replacing the
cork ordinarily used, with a great saw
ing or expense. In the trials referred
to, a specially designed boat, with can
vas-held tubes along her sides, as we'll
as fore and aft, righted herself after
being purposely capsized, although
fitted with a mast and sail, while an
ordinary boat similarly treated failed to
sink, although the bung was removed to
fill her with water, and w men were
aboard. These hopeful experiments
were witnessed by representatives from
the admiralty and various shipping au-
thorities.-Chambers' Journal.
