STUDY OF VARIABLE STARS
Constant Growth of Photographic As tronomy Discovery Made by
 Madame Ceraski.

Photographic astronomy has grown constantly in importance as 1t is more widely practiced, says the Springfield Republican, and 1t Is always worthy of note when such a thing happens as the discovery of new variable star in the Little Bear, made by Mime. Ceraski in her examination of photographs taken at the Moscow observatory. Nearly 90 stars have been shown to be either cer- tainly or probably variable by the ex- aminations made by Mrs. Fleming and Miss Leavitt of the photographic plates taken this year at Harvard observatory. Of what consequence are these discov- cries? We do not know as yet, but that there is something of moment concern ing the constitution of the universes involved in these riddles of the heavens is sure, and at some time that some thing will arrive nearer solution. Nven at this age the immediate use of such additions to knowledge has ceased to be questioned. Astronomy is magnifi- cent region in which the ideal will all ways reside.

DUCKS AND THUNDER.
The Possible Origin of an Ancient
 English Expression.

The Possible Origin of an Ancient
 English Expression.
 The phrase, like a dying duck in thunderstorm" probably originated in the peculiar susceptibility exhibited by these birds to electrical disturbances. They hang their heads at such times and turn up their eyes in the most comically pathetic fashion, giving Il faint die away quack now and again, as though they had quite made up their minds that their last hour had come, but were resigned. They are thus pre- cisely typical of people whose subnis- sion, more or less forced, is made main ly with an eye to effect.
 This susceptibility seems to be in- herent in ducks, for their eggs in course of matching are spoiled by thunder storm when hens eggs escape.
 It is worth noting in this connection that Shakespeare in '"imon of Athens" says, We, poor mates, stand on this dying deck" It is just possible that this may be the real origin of the phrase, as it refers to the sinking of a ship during thunderstorm, and deck may have been carelessly recast as duck.--London Answers.

MOST PoIsoNoUs DRUG.
Cyanid of Cacodyl Has This Distinc- tion-In Time May Be Used
 as Medicine.

A drug known as cyanid of cacodyI Is the most poisonous drug known to man. It was discovered long ago by French chemist, says Medical Talk, but attention has been called to it quite recently by an English chemist. named Scott This drug is 8 thousand times more poison ous than pure prussic acid. When .ex- posed to air 1t gives off slight vapor. which to inhale is death. One millionth part of a single grain of the drug ex- posed in an air-tight cage is sufficient to kill four dogs instantly. And yet in spite of its poisonous qualities and it's terrible power to destroy human life, the doctors may find some way to use It as a medicine. It would be too bad to let any poisons get away. Some man. ner must be contriyed to use them all. else what Is the use of having poisons.

DOG TRAVELLERS HARNESS.
Orders for Canine Gear Begin to Pour Tn When Summer Exodus
 Starts.

Harness makers have their harvest as soon as the summer exodus begins, and then orders pour in for dog harness. The only dog harness to be purchased ready made is built for toy dogs of the terrier type, and so the owner of a dog of larger growth is compelled to have his harness made to order. And this harness is an absolute necessity in the dogs travelling outfit. Cruel as it seems to the dog lover. all railroads refuse to carry dogs as anything save baggage. and so the pet dog has to be tied up in the baggage car. The uninitiated ask if this business cannot be done by means of collar and leader. Not so. Nine times out of ten a dog excited by trav- cling will slip his collar and cause no end of hubbub in the baggage car, but he cant slip the proper harness, which is securely strapped behind his forelegs.

PremOnitiom of Death Caused Karott
 toIPay For Stolen Ride.
 President Earling of the Milwaukee railroad received an interesting letter not long ago from one of the soldiers of the mikado's army, says St. Paul dispatch to the St. Louis Post-D Dispatch. The letter is as follows:
 Most Illlstrious Gir-Your humble serv- ant. in the expectation of death, desires to make restitution to you for thievery having been accomplished by him while he was living in that grand America.
 When the Second corps of the army was mobilized at Tokyo l, Matsuda Karott was in Chicago. l was without dollars, and the hurry to arrive at home was great to me- I therefore took a piece of plank ing and inserted 1t in on the rods of one of your most ulustripus chair cars.
 Thus arrived in St. Paul last October. had much trouble on the ride, but when here my noble friends, in Japan already for my passage money had sent. and did not have to use my board any further than St. Paul.
 Tomorrow this battalion moves on the redoubt of the oppressive foe. and, while l know the army of the emperor cannot fail, I shall die.
 l. Matsuda Karoti of the samurai do wish to free my mind of the weight of its guilt in stealing from your most magnif- cent railroad ride, and therefore do | send 30 yen in the money of nay noble emperor which makes about the fare from Chicago to St. Paul. Your humble slave, MATSUDA KAROTI, Eighth Imperial Battalion of the Second
 Corps.
 Near Yinkow. July 2, 1904.
 The letter was referred to General Passenger Agent Miller and by him to Northwestern Passenger Agent Dixon. No news was developed to indicate whether the soldier fell when Oku's army took the Russian outposts July 4 at Yinkow, although the officials took the trouble to wire to the Japanese legation at Washington to find out if any officer by the name of Matsuda Karoti had been reported killed in the charge.
 The officials say that the restitution. of the amount of first class fare un- der any circumstances by the con science stricken is extremely unusual and that for a soldier to do so is al most unknown,
 The 30 yen has been turned into the treasury of the road.
