Curiosities About Fish Scales.

The thin si!vory coatin@ of fish scales derives is Iustcr from many minute crystals of lime mixed with a peculiar substance called "guanin. :" This coatin" of silver crystals is very easily rubbed off the scales, and in the case of a European species of carp known as the bleak the crystals are so numerous that a metallic pigment, commercially known as "argentine.' is made from them. The large globular glass beads known as German or Roman pearls are coated on the in, side with this substance. In some spe- cies of fish with luStcriess scales the silvery lining is found on the inside of the body. X well known example of this is seen in the coInmon snlelt.

AN AFRICAN RAILWAY.
Tho Way It Was Described by an
 Educated Native


 c. J. Phillips, business agent in Uganda of the Church Missionary so- ciety. throws light upon the workings of the native mind by quoting re- markable letter in which native member of the katikiro's prime minis ter'sl party gives description of the Uganda railway.
 My friend. can tell you the Euro peans have done marvellous thing tc make the railway and the trains. They fasten ten or fifteen houses together and attach them to a fireplace which is as biG as an elephant, and the road 1t goes on is as smooth as the stem of plailtain. It goes as fast as a swal low fling; 2&d everything you see out side fits past you Klhe spark from a fire. If it were to drop off one of the for it goes dreadfully quick. The hills 1t passes are as high as those of koki, and they have bridged over great val leys which are as deep as that you see when you look from the top of Nami rembo, so deep that you cannot see the bottom when you are going over them Later there follows a description of ship: Tt is as deep as our two sto- ried house and as wide as the kings road in Mengo. and it is as long as from the katikiro's fence to the gate of the kings inclosure. It las three tall poles in it and big throat, out of which smoke comes, which is as wide as the new drum in the church at Ma mirembo. The rooms in it go down three stories, and the boards of these I cannot describe to you, for such have not been seen before. There is a lot of metal work about them, too, but these also cannot describe. for it is so fine. There are children on board and a flock of sheep and places to wash in attached to every place where chief sleeps. such as even our king has never possessed" d."-London Strand MagaZine
