BABY,s CREEPING RUG.
1t should he Made of strong Material
and as Large as the Nursery
VIII Permit

The creeping rug has quite taken
the place of the creeping bag for the
baby, as the former allows more free
dom to the little one. who is less
hampered than by the clumsy bag
gathered about its chubby knees.
For the creeping rug some strong,
firm material should be used. Canton
flannel is sometimes employed. 1t
should be doubled and the edges
bound with bright braid or finished
with buttonhole stitching in colored
wool Denim is even more desirable
than the flannel, as, having smooth
er surface, the child can creep over
it more easily and not drag it up into
lunches.
The rug is generally bordered with
a procession Of animals, cut from a
contrasting material-eioth, linen or
cotton. and appliqued near the outer
edge of the rug. Instead of making
the animals from single bright color
Of cloth, it is better to have the rug
of bright hue and the animals, as
far as possible, in natural colors. An
effective rug is made Of blue denim,
with border of black cats in all pos
sible attitudes and antics.
AS to size. the rug should be as
large as the nursery viii permit. Too
small a rug is practically worthless,
because the baby is never on it.-N.

FUNNY LITTLE FELLOW.

His initial Caw.

The picture here given is the portrait
of a little colored creature who has rel
atives all over the United States. His
name is James Grow. but when you get
to know him you may as well call him
Jim.
Just month before this picture was
taken his mother. Mrs. Crow, was sit
ting on five dark green eggs which lay
in a large nest of sticks which she had
built in the top of tall pine tree. She
had been sitting there for about two
weeks, when suddenly she heard one Of
the eggs go crack and out from
among the broken shells stepped JIM

brothers and sisters made their way
out of the other eggs, and then Mr.. and

until dark bringing food for the babies.

DREAD THE x-RAYS.
Light on the Lower Orders of
Animals and Insects.

Some interesting experiments On the
effect Of the Roentgen rays on the
lower animals have recently been made.
A box was made half of wood and
half OF sheet lead. In the wooden half
number of flies, bees, beetles and
other insects were placed and the box
was then put in the field of the X rays.
The insect colony at once became
greatly excited, and after crawling to
and fro finally emigrated, to worm,
to the leaden half of the box, where
the rays could not penetrate,
The experiment was repeated many
times and always with the same result.
A similar experiment was tried with
the blind larvae of certain species of
beetle. A number of them was placed
in an open cigar box, which also con-
tanned metal box with an opening.
No sooner were the rays turned on than
the insects showed signs of distress.
Their uneasiness increased, and in a
little while they all sought refuge in
the metal box. The X rays, it should
be remembered, easily penetrate wood
and most other substances, but cannot
pass through metal unless it is in very
thin plate.
As the larvae in the second expert
ment were entirely sightless, their per-
ception Of the rays must take place
through the nerves of the skin.
This assumption is in accordance
with the frequently observed fact that
prolonged exposure to the x rays gives
rise, even in human beings. to infam-
nation of the. skin and causes the hair
to fall off.-N. Y. Journal

LINGERING APOPLEXY.
No Reason why the Third AttncL OF

When apoplexy does not kill its VIC
tim outright one of two things oc-
curs-either the patient slowly recov-
ers, the brain clot becoming absorbed,
or secondary inflammation changes
take place in the brain membranes,
and also in the brain substance, which
finally end in stupor and death from
the accumulated pressure of the new
disease products.
When the clot is effused and in
wolves the centers of muscular power
paralysis of one or more limbs or of
one-half the body results. The. suffer-
er is then rendered more or less help
less, according to the size and extent
of the escaped blood.
The cause of rupture of the artery,
which is the initiatory cause of the
trouble, is brittleness of the walls of
the vessel involved-a condition which,
in its turn, depends on degenerative
changes associated with advancing
age.
For this reason it is often said that
when there is one attack from which
there is partial recovery, another is
likely to follow. Usually it is under
stood that the third seizure is always
fatal. There is, however, no special
reason why this should be the case,
and it is mere incident in the his
tory of the disease.
In fact, there is no rule which can
govern this limited liability as TO the
actual number of attacks, as every
thing depends upon the real damage
done at the time. Thus, the first, sec
ond or third stroke is on virtually the
same par, considering that the orig
inal invitation to accident is always
present, and the conditions which gov
ern the result are obviously progress
sive. It is easily understood, also,
that a promising recovery from the
palsy and gradual return of power
of motion are merely explained by.

Ni1d Aninnn1a Fear Fire

All really wild animals have an in
born dread of fire, partly on account of
novelty and partly through the MEM
Org, inherited or otherwise, of prairie
and forest fires. An animal may, how
ever, become more or less familiar with
fire, and still be in the wild state, such.
for instance, as lions, tigers, hyenas
and wolves, accustomed to seek their
prey near the habitations of men.
There are cases on record of such ami
mails showing little if any fear of fire.
Travellers have also observed that mon
keys soon get used to it, and will even
come and warm themselves at a desert
ed camp fire. They see the sticks burn
ing, but they never think Of putting
fresh ones on.

Telephonfc Signals MT Sea.

It has been suggested that the dories
of the eodfshermen who ply their in
dustry on the Newfoundland banks in
the path of transatlantic steamers,
and who are frequently lost in fogs or
run down by vessels, should be fur
nished with telephone apparatus for
detecting the approach of steamers in
time to give warning signal. Sound
is transmitted very distinctly under
water, and advantage is taken of this
fact in the suggested appliance. 1t
consists of sensitive microphone,
which is submerged in the water. and a
telephone and battery connected with
it. BY this instrument the thrashing
and tiuttering of a steamers screw can
be heard about three miles, thus giving
time enough for the boatman to make
the usual signals.

from that of the African continent.
Whilst Africa possesses unenumer-
ated herds of zeDras, antelopes, ele-
plants, ETC., none of these animals
exist, or ever existed, on the island
of Madagascar. On the other hand,
however, this country seems to have
been the original birthplace of the
ostrich. Mr.. Krause went to the is
land for the special purpose of in
yestigating the question as to what
kind of ostriches were the forefathers
of the present bird; and from numer-
Gus diluyial remains and bones he
discovered in the interior of the is
land. he concludes that the original
ostrich must have been bird of un-
usually large size. He also succeeded
in securing, with the assistance of a
number of natives, two well preserved
eggs of this prehistoriea1 bird, and,
though there are in all IS eggs of this
kind in various museums of Europe,
yet those found by Krause are the
largest ones known. The picture
represents the traveller holding these
two eggs with an ordinary ostrich
egg and chicken egg of an average
size. The magnitude of the two
aepyornis eggs-as they are called
may be gathered from the fact that
it would need the meat of eight nor
NAL ostrich eggs or 1s5 chicken eggs
to fill the interior of one of those
gigantic ostrich eggs. Should the
comparison be extended to pigeon
eggs, there would be needed no less
than 20,3o8 of the latter class. Krause
states that the quantity of eggs laid
by hen of this gigantic breed con-
sisted of from Is to 20 eggs. Suppos-
ing it would consist of only one dozen,
this would be sufficient to feed a
whole village of 2,215 persons, each
one receiving quantity equal to
that of three chicken eggs. As to the
prices of these eggs, it may be men
toned that one of them was pur-
chased by the Warmbrunner museum
at 10000 marks. or about 5000. AS
rule, however, they are much cheap
er. The Budapest museum bought
oIe III 1888, tHe price ol WhIeH was
only 1900 florins, or about s546. The
Provincial museum, of st. Omer, in
France, owns two of these eggs. for
whcih it paid 1900 francs $4,000
apiece.
The eggs were for the most part
found in rivers and streams having
doubtless been carried away by foods
and deposited on the bottom of riv-
ers, and thus preserved from decay
and injury Philadelphia Record.
