Cavern Rats.

The cavern rat, found in the. Man,
moth cave Of Kentucky, is of a soft,
blush color, with white neck and feet.
1t has enormous eyes, black as night,
but quite unprovided with iris. These
eyes are perfectly insensible to light
and when the experiment has been
made of catching cavern rat and turn
ing it loose in bright sunlight it blum
ders about, striking itself against every
thing, is unable to provide itself with
food and finally falls down and dies.
In it's native depths, however, it is able
to lead comfortable enough existence,
as it's enormously long whiskers are so
extremely sensitive that they enable it
to find it's way rapidly through the dark
ness. The principal food of the cavern
rat consists of kind of large cricket Of
pale yellow color, and, like most other
cave jewellers, itself perfectly blind

DIAGRAM OF THE DKPTHoMETER

lines on the diagram. This pipe is,
however, not used if the vessel be open
to the atmosphere, and in that case
coupling No. 2 is left open to the air
The gauge reservoir is next almost
filled with the indicating fluid (petrol
water, etc., and when at rest the
liquid should just appear at, the base
of the visible portion of the gauge
glass; The instrument is then ready
for use.
The method of working is as follows:
Raise the compressor lever to it's high
est point, thus causing the air cham
Der to expand and take in a supply OF
air; the latter enters at coupling No. 2,
passes through the upper chamber,
down the gauge glass, through the
liquid in the gauge reservoir and final
ly reaches the air chamber On de-
pressing the lever the air in this cham
Der becomes compressed and passes on
the liquid in the gauge reservoir. The
air cannot, however, return through
the gauge glass, as the end of the lat
ter is sealed by the indicating LIQUID.
Some of the air, therefore, passes into
the line tube No. /, and on reaching
the tank forces out any liquid which
may have risen in the dip pipe, and
ultimately the excess of air escapes
from the open end of the dip pipe into
the liquid in the tank:
During this operation the liquid
column in the gauge glass of the
depthometer will be seen to rise
gradually to certain point and then
stand. The column ceases to rise far
Their the moment the air commences to
escape at the open end of the dip pipe
in the tank, and the column thus
shown will be equal in height to the
depth of liquid in the tank, as it will
be seen that the air, having completely
filled the line tube, has created an ex-
act balance between the column of
liquid in the tank and the indicating
column of the depthometer.

NAMES OF DISEASES.
Deflniteness in Them Is Consricu-
Ously Lacking in Medical
Science.

One of the first essentials in the study
Of any science Is definite nomencla-
ture: the fixing Of one name to one
thing, for without that there can be no
common ground of discussion, and the
words OF writer may convey a wrong
impression, and give rise to erroneous
ideas, the opposite, perhaps, Of what
was intended, says Youths Companion
Unfortunately definiteness in names
is conspicuously lacking in medical
science, and not only in the popular
names of diseases, but even in the terms
employed by physicians themselves.
This confusion OF speech Is particularly
unfortunate in medicine, for it may be
the occasion of very serious errors. For
example, mother hears that a neigh
boris child has membranous sore throat
That seems a simple little thing, and
she takes no care to keep her own child
away from the neighbours house. The
neighbors themselves are not alarmed,
but even let the little visitor into the
sick-room. If the doctor had not en-
ployed euphemism, but had called the
every one would have known the gray
ity of the case, and other children would
not have been needlessly exposed.
Much misunderstanding results from
the loose use of the word typhoid" 1t
really means resembling typhus, and so
the term was attached to fever some
of the symptoms of which resemble
those of typhus fever. But it is applied
also in the form of an adjective to other
conditions and diseases. Thus the
typhoid state" is a condition of ex-
IRENE weakness with temporary mental
clouding, such as one sees in the third
or fourth week of a severe typhoid
pneumonia is sometimes employed to
designate pneumonia in which the pa
tient is overcome by the poison of the
disease, and has fallen into the typhoid
state;" but it does not imply mixture
Of TYPHOID fever and pneumonia, as is
popularity believed.
Inflammation of the lungs and lung
fever are popular expressions meaning
pneumonia, but the term pneumonia it.
self is applied to several entirely dis
tinct diseases of the lungs.
Scarlatina is another name for scar
let fever, and it does not signify a mild
form of the disease. Varioloid also is
real smallpox only in mild form; and
varioloid patient may give smallpox in
most virulent form to an unprotected
person.
All this goes to show that diseases,
like other things, should be called by
their right names.

NOVEL DEPTHOMETER
Something New in This Line Re-
Gently Invented in Ireland.
1t In Said to he an Improvement Over
Many of Such Instruments
Now in Use in This
Country.

A novel invention in the way Of a
depthometer has recently been COM
pleted in Ireland, and promises to SUI
persede many other forms of these in
Struments
The depthometer is an instrument
designed to show the depth of liquids
either in open vessels-such as water
tanks, watts, ships holds, well, ETC.
or of liquids enclosed in vessels under
any degree of pressure, as in the case
OF petroleum tanks in some motor cars
and other vessels of this kind.
The diagram shows the depthometer
attached to a tank containing liquid.
The instrument, shown in section, is
placed somewhat above the tank and
registers the exact depth of liquid in
the tank by means of the column Of
liquid seen in the gauge glass. When
wishing to ascertain the depth of liquid
In the vessel connected, it is merely
necessary to raise the lever marked
compressor lever" and bring it back
again to its starting point. On doing
this the exact depth being measured
Will be shown by the column in the
gauge glass OF the depthometer.
The parts of the depthometer shown
in the diagram are as follows: Two
chambers, fixed one above the other,
are connected by gauge-glass tube,
open at both ends, which reaches al
most to the bottom of the lower cham
Der and only just enters the upper
chamber from beneath. The upper is
called the upper chamber" and the
lower chamber is called the gauge
reservoir" The latter has attached to
It's top flexible 'air chamber" capa-
BILE of being enlarged or reduced in
area by the compressor lever shown in
the diagram. To the upper part of the
air chamber short tube and coupling
is attached, from which the line tube
mo- u can be carried to the distant
vessel. The line tube may be bent in
any way convenient for fixing and
should finish at the top of the tank,
where it is attached to a dip pipe, the
open end of which reaches to the bot
tom of the tank
If the vessel be under pressure Sec
ond line tube (No. p is necessary and
is laid beside the first tube, reaching
from the top of the tank chamber of

Rat Makes himself U.efu1.

In Middletown, Conn, is a store,
which is noted for the fact that no
flies exist there. The thing has caused
much comment, for most of the flies
that come in during the day would be
gone in the morning. The mystery
was solved the other night by people
who sat on porch opposite the store.
Shortly after the store was closed at
six o'clock a large rat was seen maxi
ing his way up the inside of the win
dow frame, feeding on flies as he went
along. He proceeded from place to
place, planning his attacks so that not
a fly escaped him. Several people were
called by the discoverer to watch the
work of the rodent. The proprietors
do not intend to interfere with the
rat.
