Resistance of Egg-Shells.

"Most people are aware" says the
Scientific American, "of the power
Of egg-shells to resist external pres
sure on the ends, but not many would
credit the result of tests recently
made, which. appear to be genuine.
Eight ordinary hens eggs were sud-
mitted to pressure applied external
ly all over the surface Of the she'll,
and the breaking pressure varied be-
tween 400 and 675 pounds per square
inch With the stresses applied in
~ternally to II eggs. these gave way at
pressures varying between 80 and 65
pounds per square inch. The pres
sure required to crushthe eggs varied
between 40 pounds and rs pounds.
The average thickness Of the shells
was thirteen-one thousandths inch

sunnitc and shilte Hair Growth.

Ia OEOvt gtl
The Mahometan religion is divided
into two principal sects-the Sum
mites and the Shiitcs. The members
OF these sects can be readily discrim-
mated by the fashion in which the
hair grows on their arms, for while
on those of the Sunnites the growth
turns downward from shoulder to
wrist on the interior side and up
ward from the wrist to shoulder
posteriorly, the hair on the Shiite
presents the contrary appear
inc on both sides of the arms. This
singular divergence is produced by
the manner of washing their arms
as prescribed by the tenets of the
sects respectively, for while Sum
mites hold it orthodox to stroke
their arms, after washing them, from
shoulder to wrist on front and from
wrist to shoulder on the, back, the
shiites abhor this practice and
stroke their arms in the opposite
ways, and hence the two directions
in which the hair is seen to grow on
the arms Of the two sects.-Londpp

LAUGHTER.
Study in Evolution That Would Prove
Profitable and Wholesome.

Gin all the wide range of evolu-
t%ionary studies there is nothing quite
SO interesting to me as the wide diff
ference in the matter Of laughing"
eaid a thoughtful man to a reporter
for the New Orleans Times-Demo|
crat, "and I have often wondered why
some men with chancesto observe the
differences, not only among individ-
uals belonging to the same racial
group, but among races, had not de-
,yeloped the more striking difference.
We have dealt with other important
differences, the differences in vocal
range and tone. We have developed
in our evolutionary studies the
marked differences between the mu-
sic of primitive and civilized peoples,
the broad difference, for instance, be-
tween the simple nonotonous scale of
tbe Fijian and the complex bit OF
sublimated harmony, the symphony.
Why not develop the range of laugh
ter among individuals and races? It
would be an easy matter to do this.
Besides, what more cheerful study
can n pursue than the study of
.laughter?: What more alluringthemc
can we find in the whole category OF
subjects relating to human kind?
Laughter! 10 think of it is to smile,
to enthuse, to become CHEEKY, to see
the things of the world through the
rosy glasses of optimism. Laughter
IS music. It is the bubbling forth of
the finer things Of the human voice.
1t is perfected music. 1t is the sum
total, the final All, in the matter Of
welded rhythmical tones. Yet, men
aad women laugh in different keys
and different scales. Often laughter
is as the silvery tones of the oriole.
Sometimes il is as the clear brass ring
of the blackbird calling her brood in
the blackgum tree. laughter some
times sharp, cutting;sometimes deep,
heavy, cultural, sounding a sort of
basso profundo; sometimes it is the
one voice in the scale of harmony,
and sometimes another. but it is al
ways musical: always rhythmical; al.
ways associated in some way with the
parting Of lips, and the showing Of
teeth, and the playing Of dimples,
and all that sort of thing. Laughter
is good to think upon. 1t is a good
theme, a good study, and one which
may be pursued with much profit, and
] will tip the aewy glass, with its am
Der liquid and spicy aromas to ths
fellow who will pursue this rosy
dream, which is of the angels"
