MEASURING DEPTH OF AIR
Atmospheric Envelope of Earth De-
termined by Interesting Scien-
tific Observation.

One hundred and 81 miles is the
height of the atmosphere as measured
by Prof. T. J. j. SAs, who determines
the thickness of the air envelope by
noting the difference between the time
of sunset and the complete disappear
ance of blue from the sky The mo-
ment at which the blue changes into
black can be observed quite easily
with approximate certainty by the
naked eye when the air is clear; and
by trigonometry may be ascertainea
the distance below the horizon of the
sun at the moment of change. BY this
means may be calculated the HEIGHT of
the smallest illuminated particles of
oxygen and nitrogen which give to the
sky it's blueness of tint by the reflec-
ton of the smallest wave lengths of
the suns light. The instant of change
from blue to black is possibly little
difficult of exact observation, bu. tfs
method is not more doubtful than that
based in the observation of shooting
stars. The shooting star method gives
a result not greatly differing from the
vanishing blue method. The former
gives the height of the atmosphere at
1909 miles.

PERFUME MADE IN GERMANY
Growth of Industry Makes That
Country Rival Of France
and England.

Vice Consul Fuller writes from Han
over that the German perfume indus
try is now one of the most important
and successful in the world, ftvaling
that of France OF England. He de-
scribes it in the following letter:
Some of the biggest factories are in
Leipsie, but Berlin, Carlsruhe and
Hamburg are important centers of the
trade. There has been vast increase
in the last few years In the diversity
of essential oils produced from plants
and do varieties of those plants are
employed in the German factories,
which use as we'll such products Of for
eign lands as nutmeg, cinnamon, cam
phor, balsams. pepper, musk apd am
bergris.
The production of the essential oil
is expensive ranging from about 1927
a pound downward, according to the
scarcity of the oil in the plant. With
fresh flowers the distillation takes
place as near the place of pickiag as
possible. as he fresher the products
the better. The stills ain about
9,300 pounds IF fow?"s e:.d the neces-
sary amount of waer Great care is
taken as to the amount of heat sup
pied and to its regularity, the process
being thoroughly controlled, an excel
lent product resulting.

LAUGHTER AND DIGESTION.
It Has Been Shown That Mirthful
ness Stimulates Gastric
Secretion.

Nothing will take the place of good
cheer and laughter at meals or any
other time in the home. There Il Il
vital connection between availability
and digestion good cheer and
assimilation, writes Orison SWEET Aiar-
den, in Success Magazine. Laughter is
the best friend the liver has, and de-
preston, or melancholia, its worsi en-
envy. Numerous experiments have
shown that mirth and cheerfull.ess
stimulate the secretion of the gastric
juices, AMI are powerful aids to dizes-
ton. Yet, knowing this, many OF us
sit as gloomy and absorbed at the ,sble
as at a funeral. In many homes,
scarcely word is spoken at IN ais,
outside of requests for an artic.c OF
food.
The meal hour ought to mean sCne-
thing besides supplying mere animal
function. The bell which calls the
family to the table ought to be the sig
nal for good time generally, when
all cares should be thrown off and
everybody appear at his best. Il
ought to signalize the time for mirth
and laughter. It ought to be looSed
forward to by the members Of the fam
lily as the recess or incoming is looted
forward to by pupils in school, as a
let-up from the strenuous life.

Am azing Marine Procession.

The fleets of the world which roam
the seven seas occasionally bunch up
in some prominent port or passageway
like the Suez canal and make an i'm
posing showing. But in point Of mag
nitude almost any of. these marine pro-
cessions fall short of that unending
commercial parade which is forever
steaming down the great lakes and
through the canals. The immens ty of
this t.offic is reflected in the official
figures Tor April, 1906, for the 800"
canal alone. During the 80 days of last
month LOIS vessels of 2,C06,640 tons
net register and carrying 2,513,267
tons of freight passed through this
great highway. Nearly one-half of this
traffic was iron ore, with coal to the
extent of about 650,C0O tons second in
prominence and grain and flour next
on the list-Portland Oregonian.
