An ingenious Swindle.

A large number of chemists in Paris
have just been the victims Of an In
genious swindle. About 200 of them
the other day received visit from an.
individual who handed in a prescrip-
ton to be made up. Among the ingre-
dents was one which was quite UNI
known to them, and note was added
to the effect that it was to be obtained
only at a certain wholesale depot. The
chemists almost to a man sent or to
the depot for the special Ingredient
and paid u francs for q bottle OF stun.
The prescriptions were duly made up,
but were never claimed, and 1t now
transpires that couple Of men had
temporarily hired the depot and sold
bottles Of colored water to the unsus-
pecting chemists at - francs apiece.
The Paris police are anxiously inquir-
ing for them as well as for their con-
federates who visited the chemists

Wonderful surgery.

Among recent wonderful surgical OPP
erations is one Of the most daring and
unusual nature. An idiot six years old,
the daughter Of resident OF Berlin,
has been converted into an intelligent
being by the process Of grating part
OF the mothers thyroid gland upon the
child's pancreas. In more popular Ian
guage, this means that part OF the
mothers throat has been transferred
by the grating process to a gland, or
tissue. lying directly at the back OF the
stomach. The operation was carried
out by DR.. Carl Care, a German sur
geon. whose success in the transplant
ing Of organs from one animal to an.
other and even from the lower ami.
mails to human beings has attracted
wide attention.

COUNTING THE STARS.

/ Use Made Of the Microscope and Of
Photographic Plates.
The gigantic but fascinating task
which J. anklin-Adams, F. r. A. S.,
has undertaken of counting the myriad
stars in the heavens and assigning to
each its proper magnitude Is one which
demands the quality of almost infinite
patience.
Mr.. Franklin Adams has already Sc
cured Photographic plates covering the
whole Of the southern hemisphere, and
these, with the series dealing with the
northern hemisphere, will number more
than 200. Each plate, which is fifteen
inches square, records from 10000 to-
250,000 starry images, and on rough
calculation the total number of stars
photographed will prove to be about
q, 100000. s.5. s.S
The task of counting the stars on the
plates has already been commenced,
and that work, together with the cata-
loguing, will take another ten years.
The method of counting the stars on
the plates was, explained by r. ].
Mitchell, Mr.. Franklin-Adams' chief
assistant. ,y #
"First taking one Of the plates" said
Mr. Mitchell, 1--WE move it across a
graduated grating contained in the
field of high powered microscope. A
horizontal strip in the grating Is then
examined, and the stars in this small
area are then counted from left to
right. or course it is impossible to in
sure absolute accuracy, for there is the
possibility that a star may be counted
twice or missed altogether.
"Then there is the difficulty present
ed by mechanical specks on the plates,
which may at first be taken for stars,
but Mr.. Franklin-Ada has a method
by means of which all stars above the
tenth magnitude can be differentiated
from dust specks. Mr.. Franklin-Ad-
ans and his assistants check one an
other in the counting, but there is al
ways slight difference in the totals,
due, of course, to the personal equa-
| ton as represented by the operator.
Merely to count the stars on an
average plate apart from noting their
, Photographic magnitude occupies the
time of two men for more than fort
! night If they work seven hours day.
In taking the plates Mr.. Franklin-Ad-
ans used q triple achromatic ten inch
lens working at FL. In the northern
hemisphere the minimum exposure was
two hours twenty minutes and In the
southern. with Its clear atmosphere,
