Time-reiIIno Inventions.

It seems that the invention Of clocks
and watches was not the fruit Of
single discovery, but was really slow
growth, side by side with many other
advances in civilization, and of course
the earliest clocks and instruments
were sun dials.
The invention of the sun dial is
generally attributed to a. Grecian as
tronomer who died about SAT b. c.
The dial was followed by the hour
glass, and this by the water clock.
which marked time by the escape of
water through an orifice. These were
introduced into Rome about 1853 B. c..
but are believed to have been in use
in Chaldea and Egypt for q hundred
years previous to that date.

ALL FEAR THE MANTlS
INSECT, FOR ITS SIZE, HAS NO
EQUAL IN THE WORLD.
Remarkable Attitude Of Prayer While
In vtait for Prey Has Made II
Unique Among Creeping
Things Of Earth.

Most persons know the praying man
tis-that large, greenish, grasshopper-
like insect which holds up adoring
arms as if venerating some deity of
the woods, or making an invocation
an oracle among insects, as the old
Greeks thought it. But these atti-
tudes of prayer conceal the most
atrocious habits; these supplicating
arms, to fall into Fabre's picturesque
phrasing, are lethal weapons; these
fingers tell no rosaries, but exist to
seize the passer-by Although a MEM
Der of vegetarian family, the mantis
feeds exclusively upon it's living prey
1t is tiger in ambush; and if only
it had sufficient strength it's ogrish ap-
petite and it's horrible facility of con-
cealment by color and form among the
green leaves where peaceful insects
travel would make it the terror of the
countryside.
At first glance it does not look very
terrible. Its neck is flexible and it can
turn its head and look with sharp eyes
in all directions, but no formidable
jaws alright a victim. In it's power
ful uplifted forelimbs lies the hidden
danger, the cruel trap. Each long
thigh, shaped like fiattened spindle,
carries on the forward half of it's low
er face a double row of steely spines,
alternately long and short; and three
needlelike spikes, longest of all, rise
Behind the parallel rows, between
which the fore leg lies when folded in
prayer" This fore part of the leg is
G mil q RI " rnd htrf xr-it Low
spikes, and terminates in hook with
blade like pruning knife and a
tip as sharp as a needle. Handle the
insect incautiously, and this arma-
ment discovers itself to you instantly,
thrusting it's needles and blades into
your flesh, gripping you in stinging
wise and forcing you to crush it to get
free.
When the mantis is in repose these
weapons are folded and pressed
against the chest, showing nothing Of
their ferocity. The bandits sword is
sheathed and it seems at its devotions.
But let victim come within reach and
the ruse-if ruse it be-is abandoned
like a flash. The three long joints
Of the deadly forelimbs straighten
and shoot out their talons, which
strike the victim like the unsheathed
claws of cat and drag it back be-
tween the saws of the thighs. The
wise closes with an upward motion, as
a man would bring his hand up to his
shoulder, and no cricket, grasshopper,
beetle or spider can struggle out Of
the crook of that terrible elbow

More British Doctors,

By a change in the bylaws of the
Royal College of Physicians in Lon
don, made in December last, says the
British Medical Journal Oondon), /,
the number of persons entitled to use
the title of Doctor" in Great Britain
has been largely increased, although,
curiously enough, the number of
qualified physicians remains precisely
the same. The fact is that until this
change all British physicians were not
entitled to be called Doctor" Only
those who had received the doctorial
degree from university were so en-
titled. The Royal college gives diplo-
mas to it's graduates, but has no pow
er to confer degrees. To the ordinary
citizen, however, a physician is a
Doctor" degree or no degree; and
the British apostles of red tape have
been obliged to bow to the popular
will. The Royal College of Physicians
of London, by the alteration in its by
laws, has recognized this fact.
