Henry Fawcett, Lost His Eyes.
"'Never mind, father, blindness shall

Fawcett, when his father reproached
himself for earelessly destroying all his
sons prospects of advancement.
lone pleasant day in 1858 the two
had gone hunting together. A flock of
cartridges flew over fence where the
father had no right to shoot; but as he
was moving forward, they flew back
toward his son. The father. SO eager

shots entered Henry's breast, and one
went through each glass of pair Of
spectacles he wore. In an instant he
was stone blind for life.
but within ten minutes from the
time of the accident which deprived
him of eyeslght forever this boy of iron
nerve had determined that even blind
ness should not swerye him from his
purpose.

he began the study of political economy

The "w,ll-o'.the.wisp."

The "will-o' the wisp' usually ap-
pears in marshy places or In grave
Yards II is believed TO be due TO the
spontaneous combustion of phosphuret-
ed hydrogen from decomposing organic
matter. and II issues from the soil as n
long flame. while on water 1t inhames
Mt the surface with the production OF
long wreaths of phosphorlc anhydrlde.
II can be reproduced artlficially by
throwing calcium phosphide into water
or bnrying II In moist soil.
A scientific Frenchman, DIR. A. Bleu-
nard, reports some remarkable observa-
tIons OF the will-o' the-wisp at Croisie,
a seaport of France. during last August
and September, the lights having been
visible every evening over consider
able area of water. The bubbles Of gas
werevery large In August, during the
season OF thunderstorms, but became
smaller and smaller as the temperature
fell, until the phenomenon ceased about
the Goth of September The bubbles
we're mostly confined to two basins that
contained no mud. but were rcceptacles
of much fish refuse. As such organic
matter as the brain of n sheep failed to
produce phosphureted hydrogen when
decaylng under water, the conclusion Is
rea ched that the waters of the port OF
Croise must contain some rare fer
ments, hitherto unknown and existing
only under special conditions, which
decompose organic substances rich in
phosphorus in a manner to set free
phosphureted hydrogen.

The Lancet says that the air OF

simply suspendlng moist linen sheets
in a keen. dry wind. and then hanging
them up in the house. 1t Is thought
the generation of the ozone may be
due to the rapid passage of atmos-
pherlc oxygen over the broad, wet sur
faces OF the sheets. Ozone exercises
a purifying effect on the air.
W. E. Roth mas recently published
the results of his studies among the
native Inhabitants Of the northwestern
part OF central Queensland, in Aus
tralla. His most interesting discovery
Is that OF the existence of a sign lam
guage, expressed by means of the
hands. and capable of conveying COM
pick as well as simple Ideas. Mr.. Roth
gives illustrations Of 2l3 of the man

Statistics are presented In n recent
number OF Nature which tend to sup

about thirty-iye years In the course
of which the earth experiences

period back TO cold and wet period
again. According to these statistics
we are now In one OF the comparative

OF the two liquid envelopes that en-
wrap the globe the atmosphere Is the
thicker, and 1t has had more to do
with shaping the surface of the earth
than one might suppose without giving
the matter due consideration. Not only
does the wind carry vast clouds Of dust
aud sand from place to place. but 1t
bears inland the yapor which rises
from the ocean. and which comes back
to MS condensed into rain. All the
erosion of the soil that is accomplished
by rivers, all the transportation OF solid
material that these streams and the
ocean currents are responsible for,
would he impossible were there no air.
The waves, too, are raised by this
agency, and their havoc must also be
charged In part to the account of the
atmospheric sea.

Harold Frederic's self confidence and
power Of dominating strangers stood
him in good stead in one of his first
visits--if not his very first visit-to
Berlin. The incident as he related 1t
seemed natural enough to an American
not brought up in awe of military
caste, but to those who knew Germany
it was almost surprising that he came
through it with his life. He had been
paying some formal diplomatic calls,
and in the evening dropped in at the
frock coat and a tall silk hat. This hat
was carefully hung ON a hat stand, and

the lieutenant, booted and spurred and

against the hat stand, knocked Frederic's

looking around. The slight to the hat
was more than Frederic could endure.
In towering passion he went to the
lieutenant. stood over him and pointed
to the object on the floor. "Pick up

stared amazed; the walters were par

what he was told. He was as irresisti-

master, or perhaps he thought Frederic
