A Winning Combination.
Cuero Star.

(uero Star.
A combination between a news
paper solicitor and an oculist ought
to be three-time winner. If you
want to locate all the blind people
in the community just let the news
paper man begin a canvass. We
find people sometimes who tell us
they haven't read anything for ten
years because of irritated eyes or
falling sight, or under instructions
from their doctor, yet these same
people will ride three miles to
sponge on their neighbors and take
their papers just at a time when
they are most interested in them.
Undoubtedly the dollar is the thing
that hurts worse than any latent or
acquired ocular inhrmity. If there
are any oculists who have trouble
in locating the sceble-eyed we will
guarantee them more than they
can do if they will just follow a
newspaper canvasser. But we
want it distinctly understood that
we don't guarantee the pay part.

coLoRINo BUTTERFLIES.
Interesting Experiments of Scientists
in the Production of Differ
emit Species.

A discovery Of the greatest impor-
tanoe to zoology, nothing less, In fact,
than the production of varieties Of but
TEXTILES simply by the use of changes OF
temperature of the chrysalides and
cocoons, is announced in Nuova Anto-
logia, of Rome. Such experiments are
peculiarly interesting, in view OF the
recent work and theories Of Prof, Hugo
De YFiee, Of Amsterdam, on the sub
ject of species and variation.
For long time work in zoology has
been conferred upon classification, but
now the study has become an expert
mental one, anu IN this new road Prof,
Standfuss, of Zurich, has obtained
some remarkable results. 1t seems
that certain species Of butterflies have
successive and different generations,
the chrysalides Of the vanessa lavana,
for example, producing in the spring
q butterfly which differs entirely In
form and color from the first genera
ton. Now, II we submit the autumn
egg to a high temperature, SO degrees
Fahrenheit, the butterfly which is
born has the same form and color as
the summer insect.
The same result Is obtained with the
Yanessa urticae, which is found under
different s1rms at the North Cape and
III Sardinia. By cooling the air In
which the egg, cocoon or chrysalis Is
placed, there is obtained the northern
form of the butterfly, while If we warm
the egg or cocoon to So degrees Fab
renheit the southern form comes into
existence, A splendid experiment
is the one which may be performed
with the macaone. In this case one
need only raise the temperature to OBJ
tain the beautiful form of the butter
fly which lives in the orient; exposing
the chrysalis alternately to tempera-
lures Of 40 degrees above zero cent?
grade and 40 degrees below, we obtain
an ancient species, which Is no longer
in existence. This experiment was
made by Stsndfuss on from 5000 to
1000 coceons and chrysalides, and he
succeeded in obtaining the greater por
ton Of the species Of the past as well
as some of the new species. and this
to such a degree that he could clearly
demonstrate the effect Of heredity.
Not only differences of temperature,
however. but also the chemical COM
position Of the air, has its effect On tho
"hrysalis and produces a variation In
the development. 1t is possible sim
ply by changing the chemical compo-
sition Of the air to change entirely the
color of the butterfly.

THE RAILROADS OF CHINA.
Many New Lines Planned by Other
Governments Which Have Sc

China has ten railways in opera,

arc Cor were) Russian, covering In all
1900 miles Of prolific Manchuria. Thus
the Russians, before the war, had their
grip on more than half of China's exist
ing railroad mileage.
The English own one little road IA
miles long, running from Shanghai to
its port, Wusung.
Belgium has a big road, Picking to
Hankow, 500 miles long. This Is
most valuable possession for little Bel
GUM TO own in the far east.
The Germans own 271 miles Of rail-
road in China. Their lines are Using
tao to Tsinanfu, 1877 miles, and the
branch to Poshan coal mines "a miles.
The Chinese own only three Of the
ten railroads; Shanhaikwan to Ten
tsin, ia miles; Tientsin to Taku, q
miles, and Tientsin to Picking, 70 miles,
in all $50 of the 2,235 total mileage.
Many railroad schemes are under
projection, most of which will fall
by the wayside, but there are five new
roads actually under construction,
Two Of these are Russian, one Ger
mar, one Belgian, and one American,
The latter is a very important road
from Canton to Hankow. Both these
are good sized cities, particularly Can
ton, which has q population of more
than 100000,
In addition concessions have been
granted for six other roads. Four OF
these are English, one French and one
German, All Of these will doubtless be
built.
China will be gridironed with rail
ways If all or most Of the present
railroad schemes are put through.
One English syndicate proposes to put
girdle Of railroads around Shanghai,
connecting nine important cities with
the market of Shanghai. Another Eng
lish scheme is to connect Hankpw with
several important cities north and
south Of the Yangtse river. England's
chief sphere Of influence is the Yangtse
valley, with its immense wealth of min
eral deposits-chiefiy iron, and anthra7
cite and bituminous coal.
There is another English scheme to
connect Canton with Changtu, the cap
ital of szechuen province, and the head
Of the navigation Of the great Yangtse
river.
