Bear Batting In OIden Days.

So popular was bull batting in older
days in England that riots followed
the attempt to suppress it in the large
towns. Bear batting was more popular
still, if that could be. In various
places, Liverpool. especially, 1t made
part Of the festivities at the election
of the mayor, being held before his
worship started for church. Ladies
commonly attended in great numbers
There was famous bear at Liver
pool which showed such grand spor,
in 1852 that certain fair admirers pre-
scented it with a garland. decked il
with ribbons and carried it to the the
alter, where a special entertainment
had been commanded" which bruir
sat out in the front of their box. BuI

AN Interesting Experiment.

That the earth revolveS on its axis
can be proved by simple experiment
Fill medium sized bowl nearly full
of water and place it upon the floor OF
n room that is not exposed to Earring
from the street. Upon the surface OF
the water sprinkle a coating Of lycopo.
dunn powder. Then take powdered
charcoal and draw straight black
line two inches long upon the coating
The line should be north and south
After this is done lay upon the floor
a stick so that it will be exactly paral
lei with the charcoal line. Any sta
tionary object in the room will an
swer as well, provided 1t is parable
with the line. If the bowl is left I'm
disturbed for several hours it will be
seen that the black mark has turned
toward the parallel object and has
moved from east TO west in direc
ton opposite to the movement of the
earth on its axis. This proves thai
the earth in revolving has carried the
water with it, but the powder on the
surface has been left a little behind.

was beginning to sound far away.
Il wish you to stop this rolling al

a Chaotic Child.


Surely the mystery of life was great.
er than the mystery Of death in the
case Of a five-months-old child which
has been the subject of an inquest at
Battersea. 1t had what the doctor
calls "drumstick" fingers and toes, its
heart was on the right side instead Of
the left. the position Of the lungs was
reversed the aOrta curved down the
right side Instead Of the left, there was
side, and there was no division be-
tween the two cham bers of the heart,
while the artery which should have
supplied the lungs with blood was clos
ed, the blood passing through com
muniCation between the aOrta and the
remaining portion Of the pulmonary ar
terry. With all this jumbled anatomy
the child lived. and the medical evil
denCe proved that its death was not
directly due to the disarranged organs.
but to an attack of bronchitis. Still,
death came mercifulIy, for the medical
view was that if the little one had
lived until it could stand it would have
died of heart disease. That it breathed
at all proves the tenacity OF life and
forms a comment on the vast sacrifice
Of healthily constituted children which
annually results from negligence.-Pall
