Uncovered by the Wind.

SIN the year 1793," says an old chrOn-
icle, ''the waters Of the Rio de la Plata
were forced in the month of April by
q most violent current Of wind to the
distance Of ten leagues, so that the
neighboring plains were entirely inun-
dated, and the bed Of the stream was
left dry. A number Of ships which had
been sunk in the river for upward of
thirty years were uncovered and,
among others, an English vessel which
was cast away in 1862. Several per-
SONS repaired to the bed Of the river,
on which they could walk without wet
ting their feet, and returned laden
with silver and other riches, which had
been long buried under the water. The
phenomenon obtained for three days,
at the end Of which the wind ceased,
and the water returned with great viO-
1ence to its native bed"

A Bath q Month,

Apparently the people of Persia are
not great believers in the old maxim
Cleanliness is next to godlineaO," fOE
baths are only taken one a month by
the people, when they go to the public
baths and make amends, so to speak,
for the infrequency' Of their additions
by spending a whole day getting clean
ed and trimmed. At the baths they
are washed, shaved, dye their hair and
nails, get shampOoed and spend the
rest Of the day eating buns and drink
ing sherbet. There are fixed days for
men and women. and on bath days q
nan goes about the streets shouting.
"Hamum!" C"Bath daVP'J. After the
bath the ladies have Wheir hair plated
I'm a number OF thin plaits, which are
not opened and combed out until the
next bath day comes around.

FORCE OF VIBRATION.
4 Musical Chord That Shattered q
HUGE Glass Bowl.

SSS VICES SOWts
Discussing the proposition that a
Wineglass can be broken or shattered
10 pieces by a musical chord, Edgar
Lucien Larktn In the New YorkSAmer-
lean says
Il had a huge glass bowl one foot In
diameter resting ON it's glass stand.
The flint glass was from one-Quarter to
three-auarters OF an inch thick. I rOS-
ined a violin bow, drew It across the
edge. and the entire hemisphere OF
solid glass disintegrated into hundreds
OF small pieces. The sound Of break
ing into fragments was entirely un-
known to nae, n cracking or grinding.
and the bits OF glass few far apart.
III had used this same bowl before
classes for several years with violin
bows. But On this particular day the
students as we'll as / were surprised at
the breaking and ~unearthly noise.
"The fact is I happened to vibrate
the bowl with its key note-that is, set
harmonic rate, which means the pre-
else rate with which It was able to vi
brate to send forth that note, for notes
are rates of vibration, and they all
obey rigid and beautiful harmonic
mathematical laws, and these agree
with other set and fixed laws"

LEFT HIM IN IGNORANCE.
No Wonder the Shade Of Sir Isaac
Newton Was Disguised.


Augustine. BirreIl, author and.states-
man, at a newspaper mems dinner told
O unique ghost story.
81 have been haunted ever since ]
was almost a boy" he said, by the
constant repetition of M and the
same dream 1t comes to me again
and again. It is this: I dream I am
walking about somewhere In some
plain or desert, and l suddenly encOun-
ter the agitated ghost of Sir Isaac
Newton. He approaches me, his eyes
almost starting out of his head; he tells
me who he lis and how ignorant he is
Of all that has happened ia the world
Of science since he left.
"'NOw.' be says. L want you to tell
me i'm a few words. for | have only &
quarter of an hour left, all that has
happened to the race-th the progress.
How is it? | know what it was when
| left it. What is it nOw?' My heart
sinks. and, covered with confusion, !
stumble. l Stutter. l Stammer, / be
come more and more involved, my ig-
noranee becomes mere and more ap-
parent. and at last the unhappy ghost,
throwing up his hands, leaves me with
dismay.
THAT dream constantly comes to me,
The only difference is that the moment
the unhappy Sir Isaac Newton ees me
now he says, oh, that old ignOramus!
and departs."-Pall Mall Gazette.
