Dalton's Experiment.

The English chemist Dalton was a
schoolteacher. He worked without a
laboratory and with crude apparatus,
mostly made by himself from simple
materials. Here is an example describ-
ed in his own words:
'ToOk an ale glass of a conical fig
ure, two and a half inches in diameter
and three inches deep; filed it with
water that had been standing in the
room and consequently of the temporal
ture of the air nearly; put the bulb Of
the thermometer to the bottom of the
glass, the scale being out of the water
Then, having marked the temperature,
put the redhot tip of the poker half
an inch deep in the water. holding it
there steadily for half a minute, and
as soon as it was withdrawn l dipped
the bulb of a sensible thermometer
into the water, when it rose in a few
seconds to $50 degrees"
He then determined the temperature
of the water at the bottom after five
minutes, after twenty minutes and aft
er an hour and found that it rose grad
ually from Al to 50 degrees. This
simple experiment proved that water
has the power to conduct heat. which

An Eccentric Russian Doctor.

The famous Russian, the late DR..
Zaharin, was noted for his eccentric
methods. When summoned to attend
Gar Alexander Ill in his last illness.
DIR. Zaharin required the same prep
aratiOn for his visit to the palace as
to any of his patients houses. That is
to say, all dogs had to be kept out of
the way, all clocks stopped and every
door thrown wide open. He left his
furs in the hall, his Overcoat in the
next room, his galoches in the third,
and, continuing, arrived at the bedside
in ordinary indoor costume He sat
down after walking every few yards
and every eight steps in going up
stairs. From the patients relatives
and every one else in the house he re-
quired absolute silence until he spoke
to them, when his questions had to be
answered by "Yes'' or mo" and moth

MAN MONEY.
The Old Teutonic Law on Killing or
Iniurinq Others.


The system of atoning for death or
bodily injuries inflicted on others by
paying damages is as old as the earli-
est TeutOnic laws. praised by Tacitus
The trespasser was always required TO
make peace with the aggrieved family
of the victim by. "Wer-Geld."
''Wer'' is the ancient German for
man. Geld" now. as in the days of
WOtan. means money.
Damages were assessed in accord
ance with the rank and wealth of the
injured party, and the money was
paid over in the presence of the whole
community, its acceptance fOrestalling
feuds. Indeed. the recognition of Wer-
Geld c'money for the man" killed. by
law precluded further blOodshed or
other forms of revenge.
If the slayer was not rich enough to
pay the required sum, he turned over
to the injured parties his sons as
slaves. If his sons were not sufficient
guarantee for the payment of the
debt. the slayer himself had to turn
bOndsman. both the letter and the
spirit of the law requiring that the
full amount of damage inflicted be
recovered by the aggrieved parties -

promptly attacked them, but were con-

That, he said. would remind them of
