Soap Bubbles.

NJ. Izarn has communicated to the
Academy of Sciences a new method for
obtaining soap bubbles lasting much
longer time than those obtained from
the soap water generally used He has
recourse to a resinous soap made by the
following formula: Pulverize together
10 grams Of pure rosin and 10 parts
Of carbonate of potash; add 100 parts OF
water and boil until complete solution.
We obtain in this way a thick solution
which may be kept in stock to be diluted
for use with from four to five times its
volume of water. It can be kept indef,
nitely even when exposed to the air. The
bubbles produced are very persistent and
consequently can be made useful in the
study Of phenomena: relating to thin
laminae and in making photographs in
which soap bubbles play part.

GREAT WRITER'S LONELY HOME
House of Thomas Carlyle Uninvitinq

A recent visitor to Craigenputtock,
Carlyle's home in Scotland, where he
lived for some years after his mar
rage, says of it: thine has wrought
little change in the house, and 1t
stands almost exactly as it was when
II sheltered Carlyle-a gray, gaunt
two-storied whinstone house, built OBJ.
viously with every regard for solidity
and durability, and with the most
complete disregard for aesthetic con-
s1derations. Round it huddles a group
OF white-washed outhouses-the barn
the byre, the stable, the penthouse,
and the other Offices of hill farm.
Behind it is a clump of fir trees, Just
planted in Carlyle's time, but now
grown to funereal maturity. The sit
uation is dreary and lonely and SOL
ftary in the extreme. It stands a gray.
oasis in desert Of undulating brown.
moorland, through the sullen ten.
acious soil Of which sluggish hill
streams wind their way tortuously
and laboriously toward the Solway
firth. The nearest human habitation
is a mile away. Dumfries, the near
est town of any size, is distant six
teen miles. Mrs. Carlyle, with fem
anine exaggeration, averred that in.
still weather she could hear the sheep
pibling half 4 mile away IL: I

Those who love to watch the opera
tions of nature will find much interest
in observing how the locust leaves the
case III which it has lived for II years
in the EARTH One who watched them
thus tells his story:
"Naturalists say they come out only
in the night. For almost two weeks /
watched them nightly, and they made
their appearance an hour before sun
down. increasing in numbers until
dark. Crawling by thousands through
the grass and over the bare ground in
their brown casing, which they are
about to throw off, they are often COW
cred with mud. Ascending weeds, POSTS,
fences and frame work in droves, and
particularly trees, they fix themselves
to the bark and OH the leaves AT this
time they encounter many enemies, as
chickens, hogs, squirrels and birds are
very fond Of them. Our cat was seen
every evening watching in the grass,
seeming to relish them as a dainty.
Zone evening secured seven on Que
branch and witnessed the operation Of
their new birth by lanplight. They
were some time running up and down
selecting position. Once fairly fixed
the back part of the head soon becomes
smooth and glossy, as if stretched to its
utmost tension. In five minutes from
the time of settling in position longi-
tndinal fissure appeared, showing a
threadlike white line where the split &C.
ours, on the back of the head, extending
finally from the first joint, connecting
the proboscis or forceps to the body
joint, half an inch in length. In three
minutes more the head had pressed it's
way out. Gradually the fore legs were
withdrawn from their sockets-say in
one minute. ~ =,
'*Then the whole body swung slowly
backward, head down aud feet outward,
suspended with an occasional tremor,
as it trying to extricate the hind part
and legs When it had hung for three
minutes, it then very slowly, like an
acrobat, brought its body up to the orig
inal position, withdrew the hind legs
and body, land in two minutes more
stood outside the pupa skin in full form,
an inch long, Of a white, waxy appear
ance, with red eyes like rubies. The
wings showed only as mass of cramped
up white film. In minute the wings
had grown to three quarters of an inch,
by measurement; in three minutes to
one inch and III six and half minutes
to the full size of -one and quarter
inches in length and half an inch in
breadth. In 20 minutes the whole proc
ess was accomplished. The yearly 10

Should Stars Knock Together tho Fire

| Would Be IndescribAble. < : -; 81
Professor Ledger Of London, whose
series Of Gresham astronomy lectures on
KNOCKS In; Their Relation to Astrono-
my has been completed, in his last dis,
| course pointed Sout that the universe,
instead of being fixed, is alive with mo-
ton, each star with its attendant plan
cts hurlying through space. If star were
to knock against star the intense heat
and fierce fire generated by the enor-
nous velocity and vast momentum Of
the two masses would be such as to pass
human conception.
It may be that the sun was formed by
the collision Of two stars. The effect of
two such bodies attracting each other
and meeting would be to reduce them
to a violently agitated gaseous mass,
which would oscillatG, first inward, pro-
ducing uncomfortable heat, and then out
ward again, ultimately assuming the
condition of the SUM- The general re-
suit would be that the two bodies would
revolve around their common center OF
gravity-that is to say, around each 9th.
er-creating a double star. Lord Kel
vim has calculated that if $4,000, 900
solid globes, each of the mass Of the
moon, should be scattered over a spher-
ical surface 100 times the radius of the
earth $ orbit, they would come together
and be raised to a temperature Of
l00,0 900 degrees. They would oscillate
outward and inward, reaching to less
distance each time, and ultimately set
thing down into sphere.
The nebulsH we see around us NAV,
Professor Ledger suggests, have been
produced by the knocking together of
two great bodies rather than by the ag-
gregatiop of many smaller ones. The
collision of two huge suns would thus
lead to rcjuvenescence and the formation
of new systems Phenomena indicating
that something very much in the nature
OF collision had occurred are the out
bursts Of temporary stars such as those
observed by Tycho Brahe in 1879, by
Kepler il 1904 and those Of ]949, 1866,
1876, 1885 and 1892, the last being the
new star Auriga, which declined through
ten magnitudes, Or became 100000
times less bright III two months. The
great increase III the light Of comet as
it approaches the sun may be due to
tidal disturbance in tho bodies forming
it, causing them to knock against each
other, and thus generate heat and light
In the same way the twinkling of the
stars may be caused by the knocks of
the molecules Of the atmosphere On the
ether, whose undulations carry their
light to us. The excessively great aud
the exceedingly small are all interde-
pendent, and the past, present and prob
able future Of nebulous bodies oil hinge
Oh the relations they bear to the knocks
Of the molecules of their gases, while
the knocks Of immense bodies depend
ultimately OIL the knocks of their constit.
uent atoms.
