Value Of Cold. Fresh Air.

Cold. fresh air has special value be-

degrees in its temperature increases
the proportion OF oxygen In air one
seventh This Is why one feels bet
ter In cold than In warm air. The
vital fires as well as fires in CRATES
burn brighter in cold weather. The
whole tide of life moves with greater
activity. When oxygen is not plenti'

burn sufficiently to consume the fuel
and waste of the body, then much OF
the waste material Is left behind In
the form of imperfectly burned sub

the term govt and they attributed
the disease to overindulgence and

Greek writers the word Is frequently
used, particularly in Ovid and Pliry,
and Seneca in his ninety-ffth epistle
mentions the prevalence of govt
among the Roman ladies OF his day
as one OF the results of high living.
Sir Thomas Watson says: The in

1t Is not necessary TO plant them in

There is new theory e1tant that 1t
Is possible to determine the age of
fishes, especially those of the cod fami-
ly, by counting the periodic growth Of
the scales.
We know that the growth of the
scales IS annual in the carp. Why
should it not be SO in salt water fishes ?
Mr.. J. S. Thomson, an English hiolo-
gist of note. has been making some in
teresting experiments in this line to
test the age of fishes
The scales are first carefully exam
ined, then the fishes are labeled and
returned to the sea for future observa-
ton.
In some cases study OF the scales
reveals changes, so that the rings IN
the scales can be distinctly traced
from year to year with a certain fixed
regularity.-Boston Globe.

CHOICE MISCELLANY
Brain. OF Nc, and Apes.

According to the examinations of the
brains Of Europeans that have been
made by anatom.sts, one OF tie most
important physical differences between
men and apes and monkeys las been
the absence Of the so called silnian
fold in the human brain. This Similar
fold. or sulcus, which occurs on the
posterior portion Of the main hemi-
spheres, has recently been discovered
by Professor G. Elliot Smith OF the
Egyptian government School of Medi-
cine In tho course of an examination
Of a number Of brains "| egyptians
and SudaneSe II /" .uund that in
certain exampl. ~ brains in his col
lection the characteristic folds found
IN anthropoid apes are so closely repro
duced that he Is able to trace and clear
" establish the identity Of every sui
Gus, or flssure. Professor Smith has
also succeeded in finding human brains
where the occipital pattern corresponds
closely with the brain of the gorilla.
AS these points Of identity between
man and his nearest relations have not
previously been encountered by Euro
pean scientists in their brain studies,
their Importance can be realized, as
they do away with one Of the supposed
and hitherto recognized structural dis
tnctions.-Harpers Weekly.
