Museum Notes.

The Johnson Normal school about So
in number, and several teachers, will visit
the Museum today. Miss Griffin will adj
dress them on The Museum as a Help to
Vermont Teachers.
The educational collections ilustrat-
ing commerce and industry have been in
creased by fine exhibit of coffee and
spices presented by A. Nd. Walbridge of
New York. There are II kinds of coffee
including specimens from Rio Janeiro,
Venezuela, Mocha, Liberia and lava.
Coffee is almost never seen in the cherry
or held in the inner parchment but ex-
hibits in both these states are shown
here. The spice exhibit is equally inter
esting and the housekeeper will hardly
recognize mace, allspice, ginger and pep
per in their natural state.

die to the grave, until their ears are actu-
ally detormed by the constant pressure.

March 10, the cuckoo finch, March 30,
and the song sparrow, April 2nd.

experience of hearing the northern shrike

its song to that of the catbird is very
marked 1t has for years been mooted
question among ornithologists whether
or not the northern shrike does sing and

1t was a kindly custom in a certain
village for the Weather inhabitants to
make good the loss which a poorer vii

receiving visit from a laborer's wife
"Lost pig, eh?" he repeated gruff.

Relative Hardness of Precious Stones

Relative Hardness of Precious Stones
The relative hardness of various
stones is easily determined by testing
the power of one stone to make
scratches on another. If a diamond is
rubbed with one of the points of a
topaz, the topaz point is blunted and
the mark which will be seen on the
face Of the diamond is only the dust
Of the topaz, which can be brushed off
with the finger But If the topaz is
rubbed against the diamond the lat
ter is unaltered and the surface of the
former is marked with a scratch
which can be removed only by fur
Their polishing down. 1t is on the basis
of this process of comparison that
scale of comparative hardness has
been formed represented by ten sub
stances. of which diamond is the high
est and graphite the lowest in the
scale. 1t is a curious fact that these
two extremes of the scale, the brilliant
and hard diamond and soft black
graphite, are both chemically the same
