TO France probably belongs the credit
Of using the camera for war purposes
in a most satisfactory manner at Il
time when ii was of the utmost impor-
lance When Paris was besieged COM
munication with the outside world was
had only by means of balloons and
carrier pigeons. The dispatches sent
by the carrier pigeons were photo
graphed on small films, which could
be attached to the feathers of the
birds, and in this way single bird
could carry thousands of words. Like
wise the aeronauts who lowered over
Paris used the camera for photograph
ing the different positions of the Prus-
slams. These photographs were the
first ever taken of an invading army
from balloon. Prohting by this ex-
perience the French army and navy
have increased their carrier pigeon and
balloon service. Several hundred Off
GERS in the French army are expert
photographers and every engineering
corps carries with it complete photo
graphic outfits.-Ch Chicago Post.

The Rainbow.

When n ray of sunlight falls on =
raindrop it is refracted: then part Of
the light is reflected from the internal
surface and again refracted Oh leav-
ing the drop The white sunlight is
not only refracted when it enters and
leaves the drop, but dispersion also
takes place. The eye sees bright cir
clos Of light for each kind of light, and
since sunlight Is made up of different
kinds of homogeneous light we get It
series of circular arcs, showing the
spectrum colors. the red being outside
and the other colors following in the
order of descending wave length The
whole constitutes a primary rainbow.
A secondary bow Is sometimes seen
outside the first. This is formed by
the light being twice reflected inside
the raindrops. The less refrangible
rays are on the inner side. Rainbows
due to still more internal reflections
are too feeble to be observed. 1t is
possible to get a white rainbow if the
sun is clouded or il there is Il mixture
of raindrops of very different sizes.

In Japan it has been observed with
increasing astoniShment as almost a
freak of nature that ever since the
adoption by the Emperor Mutsuhito,
thirty years ago, of European customs
and costumes the Europeanization of
the physiognomy of the Japanese has
been growing apace. One of the. no
least wonderful results the trayelel
will learn from the BARRIERS of Toxic
and Yokohama is the increase in the
growth of the beard, and of the lesser
stiffness of the hair, owing to the habit
of wearing hats and of brushing and
oiling the hair.
The increase of stature among the
Japanese is very perceptible, and the
substitution of tepid and even cold
water for the hot baths among many
of the people is responsible for an in,
creasing horidity of the complexion.
