VARIOUS RADIUM RAYS.
Beyond the Scope of the Strongest
Microscope to Determine.


For the sake of distinction the ra-
dium rays are known as the alpha
beta and gamma rays. Two of these
kinds are actual matter. The first
seem to be about the size of atoms,
they travel enormously fast, but are
easily stopped by n thin sheet OF
metal. The second are atoms thou
sond times smaller than anything
else known. and they go right
through most metals. Both sorts are
electrified. The third class of rada-
tions are apparently the Roentgen
rays. 1t would seem as If this waste
of substance and power could con-
tinue for thousands of years. and yet
tho radium show no sign of growing
less. All these rays are far beyond
the scope OF the most powerful mi
croscope, but are caught and shown
by the Crookes screen.

The Quality of a Mirror.

In the mirrors of to-day tthe light
is reflected by layer Of silver or an
amalgam of tin, but a proportion of
light is lost in the process of rellec-
ton and the image is less luminous
than the original. The value of q
looking glass is usually estimated by
the thickness OF the glass, because the
thicker 1t is the stronger 1t must be.
But, speaking scientifically, thick
glasses are defective because the
outlines of the image reflected are
less clearly defined.

Medical Value Of Flowers.

1t Is now established that flowers
and the perfumes distilled from them
have a salutary influence and consti-
tute therapeutic agency of high
value, and that residence in a per-
fumed atmosphere forms a protec-
ton from pulmonary affections and
arrests phthisis. In the town OF La
Grasse, France, where the making OF
perfumes is largely carried on,
phthisis Is unknown.

Passing of the Glacier.

According to experts who have
been studying the question, the
death and total extinction of the pre-
historic glaciers is only matter of
time. In the Dauphine Alps seven
teen main glaciers have been under
close observation since 1890. and all
have shrunk steadily during the pc
riod, some of them as much as fifty
feet day.

Habits of Domcsticotcd Animals.

The dog is the most widely dis
tributed of the domestic animals. He
lives In the lowly hut OF the African
savage and is the companion of the
Greenland Esquimaux, the most
northern inhabitants of the wrold
He is, in fact, the inseparable COM
panion of man and is found where
ever the human race exists. His hab-
itat is thus extended further north
and further south than that of any
other domestic animal.

Uses of COCOnnut.

Oriental Goals not being well suit
ed for the production of large guam
titles of Illuminating gas, and gaso-
line not being readily obtainable, the
government laboratories in the Phil
ippines have adopted method Of
preparing gas from cocoanut oil.
The oil is slowly poured into red hot
cast-iron retorts. and gas Of high
quality is given off, with the produc-
tion of very little tar.

IN Illusive Plant.

There is a plant in Chile and
similar one in Japan, called the
flower of the air." 1t is so called
because 1t appears to have no root,
and is never fixed to the earth. It
twines round a dry tree or sterile
rock. Each shoot produces two or
three flowers like a lily-white,
transparent and odoriferous. 1t Is
capable of being transported six to
seven hundred miles and vegetables
as it travels suspended on a twig.

Toilet of the Ant.

A naturalist has been making OBJ
servations on the toilets of certain
ants, and has discovered each insect
goes through most elaborate ablu-
tions. They are not only performed
by herself. but by another, who acts
for the time as lady's maid. The as
sistant starts by washing the face Of
her companion, and then goes over
the whole body. The attitude of the
ant that is being washed is one of in
tense satisfaction.

Strnnyo Coincidence.

There is mysterious coffin
shaped grave In the churchyard at
Montgomery, England, on which the
grass refuses to grow. According to
the local legend, young man Of
Montgomery was hanged for mur-
dering his sweetheart. He asserted
TO the last that he was not guilty,
and on the scaffold, declared that no
grass would grow over his grave un-
I'll his innocence was proved. The
prophecy. it is alleged, has been full
filled to the present day.

Sale of Asses Milk in London.

This has been a good year for the
sale of asses milk, the consumption
of which varies according to the
amount of illness prevailing.
Two or three asses dairies still
hold their own in London, one being
within a couple of hundred yards of
the Marble Arch, where "mllch
asses" are kept on the premises.
From this establishment the milk is
sent all over the country in sealed
bottles, the price being 6s. per quart.

Snow is sold in the north of Sicily,
and ii fetches about cent a pound,
1t is government monopoly, and
the Prince Of Palermo derives the
greater part of his income from it.
The snow is gathered on the moan
tains in felt-covered baskets, and is
sold in the cities for refrigerating
purposes

Zone OF the SilkMnrm.

The sillworm girdles the earth be-
tween the fiftieth parallel of north
latitude and the Tropic of Cancer,
being found further south only in
Siam and Cochin China. In other
words, 1t lives wherever the mul-
berry and other trees on which it
feeds are found in perfection.

Solving the Tramp Question.

The city of Colby, Kan, had 1000
meal tickets printed and distributed
among the housewives of the place.
The tickets are good for one meal
when countersigned by the city mar
shall. When a hobo appears at the
back door and asks for a handout he
is given one of these tickets. which
the marshal will redeem for two
hours work on the streets. Unless
the tramp follows this procedure he
goes hungry in Colby.

"singing Insects" of japan.

More than three thousand persons
In Japan make a good living by
breeding, training, and selling what
are known as singing insects" The
insects somewhat resemble our
crickets, being known in Japan By
the name of kusa-hibari. The music
which they make resembles that OF a
silver bell. and, though rather mo
MolOnoas. is very clear and sweet.
