MeIanel,elia.

Melancholia does not mean depres- sion of spirits. A man may be as de- pressed as it is possible to be and still not have melancholia. Melancholia is despondency on account of painful de lusions. One of the two typical delu- sions of melancholia is that the unpar- donable sin has been committed, that God has been offended beyond redemp- tion and that hell is to be the ultimate goal; the other is that of impending poverty. Everything is lost or is about to be. The patient and his family are going to end up in the poorhouse. His acts alone have brought about this ter .rible calamity from which there is no escape. It can be readily seen that a person having delusions Of this type must be necessarily depressed>e There is probably no form of insanity in which the anguish e the patient equals that of the nlelancho1iac. Life is one continuous horror.-Exchange

Matara,nouta.

The Waterspout at sea and the tor nado on land are manifesto lions of great instability of the atmosphere in a vertical direction, caused either by an abnormally warm surface layer of air or an abnormaIly cold layer at the cloud level, says Nature. The former cause is common in summer; the lat ter occurs both in summer and winter and is usually associated with Tine squall' OF " shaped barometric de
 pression. The Waterspout shows the track along, which surface air passes spirally upward to restore equilibrium. The commotion of the sea is due to the exceedingly violent character of the phenomenon. The funnel itself is probably composed partly of moisture condensed out of air by the sudden -diminution of pressure which occurs and partly of sea water in the form of spray. Sometimes the middle portion of the visible funnel is absent. but there must in that case be a core spending complete funnel of rotating air from the surface of the cloud.

Homina instinct of Crabs.

Who would believe that among crea- lures having well developed domestic instincts we must include the humble crabs, the spiders of the sea-" as Vic tor Hugo calls them? Once under wa ter, we might expect one part of the sea to be as homeIike as another, but that only shows how little the average human being understands a crabs point of view. Some one, however, suspected them of the -homing instinct and so tried the experiment of catch ing a pair of them on the Yorkshire coast, in England, and, after marking them, carrying them south fifty miles or more, returning first one and then the other to the water at different points on the shore. Then the York shire crabbers carefully searched their traps as they made each haul, on the lookout for the possible return of the wanderers. Strange to relate, ofe day not one, but both of the crabs. were caught a second time, having made their way back across the intervening miles of sea bottom to their Yorkshire home.-St. Nicholas.
