Philippine Positions Not Wanted.
 Positions in the Philippines seem to go begging. Several months ago Col. Edwards. chief of the insular bureau. called upon the civil service commis- sion to certify candidates for 150 teachers positions paying from $2,000 to $500 per annum. There were few applicants, fewer took the examina-a ton, and only AZ were found eligible for appointment Another examina- ton will, therefore. be held early in October. The insular bureau will not permit women to take the examina- ton for these positions and the du- ties or pay of pedagogue do not seem to appeal to the young men of the country.

Vacuum.

The space above the mercury In
thermometer is not perfect vacuum.
There is not infrequently a small por-
ton of air left in such space, and there
is always an atmosphere of the vapor
Of mercury. Physically speaking, it is
perhaps impossible to procure a vac
uum. 1t is most likely that even If a
real vacuum could be procured for an
instant air or other vapor would at
once begin to be disseminated from the
sides of the vessel in which it was
made. and it would thus instantly cease
to exist.
1t is true that DeXarteS denied the
very possibility of Il vacuum and says,
IF a vacuum could be effected in a
vessel the sides would he pressed into
contact" but it is hardly correct to
say, scientists say that vacuum can
not exist" What scientists do say is
what Galilei said Mature abhors a
vacuum" AS the statement of fact
is true, Nature does, to the best Of our
knowledge, abhor vacuum. She never
suffers it to exist to the extent of al
lowing any space which is perccptible
to our senses to be vacuOus. Vacuum.
in scientific speech, simply means 4
space from which air has been expelled.
