MOVING PICTURES.
Originated In the Spinning of Coin
h.. Cir Inhn Aarenhal

Originated In the Spinning of Coin
by Sir John HerscheI.
Sir John Hersehel after dinner in
1926 asked his friend, Charles Bah
bage, how he would show both sides of
shilling at once. Babbage replied by
taking a shilling from his pocket and
holding 1t to a mirror. This did not
satisfy Sir John, who set the shilling
spinning upon the dinner table, at the
same time pointing out that if the eye
is placed on level with the rotating
coin both sides can be seen at once
Babbage was so struck by the expert
ment that the next day he described
it to friend, DIR. Fitson. who immedi-
ately made working model. On one
side of disk was drawn bird, on the
other side an empty birdcage. When
the card was reyolved on silk thread
the bird appeared to be in the cage.
This model showed the persistence of
vision upon which all moving pictures
depend for their effect. The eye re-
tains the image Of the object seen for
a fraction of a second after the object
has been removed. This model was
called the thaumotrope, Next came
the zoetrope, or wheel of life. A cylin-
der was perforated with a series of
slots. and within the cylinder was
placed a band of drawings of dancing
men. On the apparatus being slowly
rotated the figures seen through the
slots appeared to be in motion. The
first systematic photographs taken at
regular intervals of men and animals
were made by Muybridge in 1877.

MUSIC AND THE MASSES.

Popular Opinion Should Be Educated
to Be the Arbiter as to Merit.
Give me the approval of the masses.
and can survive without the aristoc-
racy or the critics; not that the latter
are to be despised or ignored but their
minority decision should not be final.
What makes or breaks great works
on their first performance in Europe?
Not the verdict of the aristocracy nor
of the critics, but the masses, the COM
mon people. 1t is in the galleries that
the battle is waged, with Kisses and
applause, and it is upon the prevailing
opinion of this portion of the audience
that the fate Of a work depends. But
In America, alas, the masses do moth
ing. 1t is the critic who assumes to
tell this nation what is good work and
what bad, and believe and am daring
enough to say that there is no man or
small coterie of men capable of teach
ing nation art. 1t needs the battle of
minds among the people, and again
say, alas, our people, our masses, have
not yet been unsteady educated, nave
not yet had an opportunity to live in
the proper musical atmosphere.
One great drawback for the masses
here is that the opera season lasts but
a few months and that the prices of
the limited number of representations
during that brief period are so very
high that the people generally cannot
afford to go. 1t is dreadful to me to
realize that it is the very people whose
souls long for music and who sooner
or later will, believe, be the chief
factors in building it up here as they
have been in Europe and who are now
denied the opportunity not only of sat
isfying themselves, but of lending their
aid to the spread Of art feeling and
comprehension.-Mar Garden in Ev-
erybody's.

The saItpster Man.

The saltpeter man of the first half Of
the seventeenth century was hated
even more. if that be possible, than the
"window pepper of those more recent
days when light was subject to heavy
taxation. Before the importation Of
saltpeter from abroad as an important
ingredient in the manufacture of gun
powder it was a crown monopoly, and
agents, popularity known as saltpeter
men, were sent all over the country to
seek for it in stables, pigeon cots, pig
sites and indeed in almost all other
places the soil of which was supposed
to be impregnated with animal matter.
The injury these men did and the irri-
tation they caused by digging up floors
and pulling down fences were great.
No householder was free from their
visits, which were rendered especially
odious from their being empowered to
impress carts and horses for the pur-
pose of carrying away the mineral and
the utensils employed in its manufac-
ture. This CALLING domestic tyranny
though, of course, not to be compared
with things of far greater moment
was no doubt one of the factors in the
national irritation which made the civil
war possible. The monopoly was put
an end to by parliament In 1656.-Lon-
don Athenaeum.

There are certain large sea spiders
two feet from toe to toe, called Colo
sendeis gigas, that live in the water
and feed entirely upon mollusks and
worms.
The carnivorous wolf spider, an am
phibious inhabitant of the tropical re-
gions of South America, is said to pre-
fer a fish diet, though 1t is not averse
to eating mice, young birds and even
snakes, resembling in this respect the
theraphosidae, or bird catching spiders,
Of India and Queensland, some Of
which equal a rat in size.
The collosendeis is the most formida-
BILE specimen of the spider family,
measuring six inches around the body
and possessing twelve long, hairy legs,
with which it grips its fnny prey 1t
attacks fish several times larger than
itself and after biting them through
the back and singing them to death
gluts itself by sucking the juices from
the bodies of its victims.

Low. BOTTOMS il the Middle Ages.

In a lecture delivered before the AS
ISOLATION of Surgeons of Munich by
Professor Klein on the subject of mar
cotics the speaker said that the process
of reducing the sensibilities Of patients
with a view to making operations
painless was known and practiced in
the middle ages. The narcotic was
known then as 'love potion" and
recipes for compounding it have
come to US from our ancestors. Pro-
fessor Klein said that the story OF
"Tristan und Isolde showed that the
love potion was only a narcotic. Bish-
Cd Theodorus of Chervira wrote pre-
scription for a pain destroyer in the
twelfth century which contained OPT
um, morphine and hyascum. A med
ical work printed in 1460 contains the
first known treatise on inhalation, and
we now inject under the skin the
soothing mixture which in AGO was
inhaled. A love potion prescribed in
1897 by Hieronymus Of Braunschweig
contained opium and number of use
less ingredients. Many of the mixtures
known as love potions were lost in the
course of the Thirty Years. war and
were rediscovered later to serve again
in the field of science.

A curious mourning custom obtains
among central Australians, who, al
though representing perhaps the low
est and most degraded type of human
beings, have managed to evolve most
complex system of rites and ceremonies
which governs almost every action Of
their lives. When a husband dies the
widow paints herself all over with
white pigment and for the space Of
year must not exhibit herself to male
member Of the tribe on pain of death.
For the rest of her life, unless she mar
ries again, which Is sometimes allowed,
she must not speak. but communicate
with the other women by means Of a
sign language, consisting Of movements
of the hands and fingers, which has
been developed by these savages to a
marvellous extent and by which their

KILLING A WHALE.
Where All Of the Boats Crew Looked
Like Murderers.

Where All of the Boats Crew Looked
Like Murderers.
1t was my boats privilege to fasten
first, and we did so in grand style, says
a writer in Forest and Stream. The
big fellow lay blowing in one position,
and we sailed on him head and head
and fastened to him with two har-
poems, one of them being an explosive.
When he felt the iron he turned and
plunged under our boat and covered us
with the spray from his fukes as he
tossed them up in the air to dive. And
he did not stop. either, for our line
whizzed around the loggerhead, Civ
ing out blue sheet of smoke until the
end of it went by us like bullet, he
had gone down with our 300 fathoms
Of line In less than minute.
In a few minutes he appeared again
near one of the other boats, and he got
two more harpoons. one of them ex-
plosive, and then the other two boats
shot in, and fastened with two irons
apiece.
Meanwhile the beast was coursing
around and spouting blood in frantic
manner, and it took six bomb lances
besides the eight harpoons to subdue
him.
Our next hit was made on the 9th,
when our boat fastened again. The
whale did not go very far this time,
but just circled around us in short
line. Another whale from the herd
kept by him until the kill and then
made off to windward The other boat
was off after some other whales. They
could have got him easily.
While we were tied to the dead whale
we made out his comrade coming down
to us at great speed, and it looked as
If he meant mischief We hurriedly
cut adrift- from our capture and, get
ting fresh harpoons and lances ready,
prepared for his onslaught. In min
ute he was close to us, and while he
stopped to take look we jumped the
boat ahead and darted two irons, which
started him off at high speed to wind
ward, and the people on the ship told
US afterward that we literally skipped
from one sea TO the next. All we were
conscious of was the fact that the boat
simply rested on her keel, and the spray
few over us in great Sheets
At last he Stacked up and gave us a
chance to put in bomb lance. He
made rush to leeward, to where we
had left the dead whale, straight as a
die and right over him, dragging us
over, too, of course, all the time spout
ing blood. Then be Owed under us and
came up with his blowhole right I'M
der the mates nose, who was looking
over the side for him, and he got the
spout of thick blood right in the face
at less than a yard distant. OF
course it spattered all of us, and when
we hauled alongside with our two
whales we all looked as much like
murderers as anything else The cap
tain was highly pleased with our per-
Torrance, and he at once awarded our
mate the pig, for it had been put up as
