Formation Of Ice.

The cause assigned for the fact that
water freezes only for a comparatively
small space at the surface Of rivers or
ponds Is thus explained. Scientists au-
thoritatively declare that water Is at
its heaviest when It reaches 40 degrees
F.--that Is. degrees above freezing
point On a frosty night. as each TOP
layer OF water falls TO 40 degrees Il
sinks 10 the bottom. therefore tho
whole pond has 20 drop TO 40 degreea
before any OF II can freeze At length
It is all cooled 70 this point. and theu
ice begins to form. But ico Is a very
bad conductor OF heat. therefore Il
shuts or the freezing air from thu
body OF warmer water underneath.
The thicker It gets the more perfectly

LIGHT AND FLOWERS.
Why a Garden Is More Fragrant by
Night Than BY Day.


The light we receive from stars Of
the first magnitude. like Vega. is equal
approximately TO a forty thousand-mil-
liouth part OF that OF the sun. 1t is cal
culated that the total light received
from the lesser stars is equal to that OF
5000 stars OF the irst magnitude, or
sixth part OF that which is sent to US
from the moon.
Light exercises a mechanical pressure
which can be measured IN the labora-
tory. Il has been shown by expert
ments with artificial light that Ia It's
production enormous quantities OF en-.
ergy are dissipated.
In an ordinary wax candle the total
energy which Is transformed into light
is really but per cent. Gas aud kero-
sene lamps are not more economical.
On the other hand. the glow worm
transforms into light. by means yet un-
known. 90 per cent OF the total energy
expended.
IL is known that light Influences very
largely the aroma Of flowers. A garden
Is more fragrant when IL Is shaded
than when the sun Is allowed 90 shine
