The Almanac

The word almanac" is derived
from the Arabic 'Ealand manah,"
which means to count and thus
aptly applies to measurements of
time. In ancient days almanacs
were employed by the, Alexandrian
Greeks, but it is uncertain as to-
when they were actually introduced
in Europe. In 1850 a. D. Soloman
Jarchus issued an. almanac in script,
but the first printed one was
brought to Vienna in 1457 by the
great astronomer, Purbach. The
most celebrated almanac maker was
an adept in the so called black art,
Nostradamus,. and since his time,
somewhere toward the middle Of
the fifteenth century, almanacs with
predictions have been in vogue.
and their pictorial prophecies and!
weather lore have invariably appeal
ed to a large number Of people.

How Animals Learn.

DR.. T. Zell, an eminent German
naturalist, has collected many in
stances to prove that animals learn
by experience and thus become
wiser than their uninstructed par
ents. Game animals of, all kinds,
he AYERS, have learned the range of
modern rifles. Greyhounds quickly
learn to let rabbits alone, and fox
hounds pay no attention to either
rabbits or hares. Killer whales and
Sulls follow whaling vessels, Just
as vultures follow an army. Crows
begin to accompany the chamois
hunter as soon as they have seen
the result of his first successful shot,
and rough legged buzzards follow
The .sportsmen after winged game.
The number of birds that kill or in
jure themselves by flying against
telegraph wires is much smaller
than it used to be. DR.. Eel also re-
fers to the fact that birds and
quadrupeds have learned to disre-
lard passing railway trains, as
horses quickly cease to be frighten-
I'd by motorcars.

BURNING DIAMONDS.
Costly Experiments Finally Settled :
Much Disputed Question.

LSSs1H Experiments FiHuuy 9oSIeo
Much Disputed Question.
In the year 1904 it was discov-
cred by actual experiment that
diamond would burn. Then Cosmos
III. had one fixed in the focus of
burning glass, and after some ex-
posure to the rays of the sun il
cracked, corruscated and finally dis
appeared Ike a ghost, leaving not
a single trace that it had ever ex-
listed, not even an atom Of ashes.
But experiments of this sort were
costly. They were long in yielding
any scientific result. It was only a
king or a sovereign prince thai
could afford to see his Jewels vanish
ike the gifts Of a fairy godmother.
Another potentate, Francis l., tried
the quality of number of yalua-
bic diamonds in the heat OF a fur
mace and may have felt some graft
fication when he found that they
had disappeared. This was in 1850,
and about twenty years later scien-
tifc experimenters burned magni-
fcent diamond in Paris.
a jeweIer named Leblanc now
came forward and denied the pos
sibility of burning diamond, even
going SO far as to accuse the chem
ist Maequer of fraud in conduct
ing his diamond burning opera
tons. BE had often, he asserted,
exposed diamonds to great heat,
with the sole result of increasing
their brilliancy.
a Mr.. Streeter had done the
same with success, but it seems that
Leblanc only knew half of what
Mr.. Streeter knew. When Macquer
demanded that the jeweler inclose
some diamonds in coal in a cruel
bic he rashly assented, and in three
hours they had all disappeared.
Then Maillard, who seems to
have had his suspicious of these
operations, put three diamonds in
an earthen bowl packed in powder
ed charcoal and exposed them to
intense heat without injury. Next
Lavoisier came forward with his
explanations of the phenomena at
tending the results of these various
experiments. He says that by
shutting out the air diamonds are
preserved in the intense heat of a
furnace, but that the admission of
oxygen, which combines with the
carbon of the diamond, allows it to
burn almost as readily as piece of
coal.

A Million Anen,tor,.

It may be a little surprising and
of interest to learn that person
may have had more than a million
ancestors within comparatively re-
cent years, and that without taking
into account pncles and aunts.
Starting with ones parents, each
person, of course, has two, a father
and a mother. The father had his
two parents, and the mother had
hers. Thus each person has four
grandparents. One step farther,
and We have eight great-grandpar-
cnts. A simple calculation gives
the astonishing result that our
ineal ancestors during twenty gen
nrations number no fewer than
! ,04s,576, or sufficient people, if all
living, to populate the whole of

Reauish Ravnn,.

The raven of southern Europe is
bold fellnw-not unlike his cous-
in, the crow. Some notices of the
bird, given by an English traveller
in Corsica, offer amusing proof OF
this.
a youth whom I employed to car
~ my camera could never look on
ravens with any equanimity, for he
had suffered much from their thiey-
ish impotence when sent to the
bush to gather irewood. On one
occasion he lost his dinner, loaf
Of bread wrapped in a napkin, al
though he was working close to the
spot where he had laid it and had
turned his back for only minute.
But the most objectionable insult
he had ever received happened on a
day when he was out gathering
wood. As he was stopping down to
bind bundle of fogots a raven
suddenly swooped from behind, lift
ed the cap from his head and flew
away with it to a lofty crag, from
which she uttered croaks of tri-
umph. The cap was subsequently
seen lined with straw and serving
for a nest.
