' Ostriches lay the largest eggs of ssi birds now extant, according to a' writ er In tbe Bclenllflc American, hot the ostncn'e tgf wo ma .im - mwvmrvi small beside that' extinct IfadagaAcar bird, tbe ebyomla, whWa measured 'more than thirty tnches tn Its small est circumference. The smallest birds' eggs are those of the minute species of humming birds, which are smaller than, the eggs ot certain kinds of trop ical beetles. But the cuckoo lays the relatively Bmallest,egg that la to say, while the jackdaw and tbe cocko are about equal In size, the former's egg is five or 'six times larger, than .the tat ter's. Tbe fact ' that ' the - cuckoo Is wont to deposit its eggs In the meets of birds which are usually, much small er than Itself doubtless- accounts ' for this. The relatively largest egg is laid by the kiwi a strange, wingless New Zealand bird. The egg Is no less than five inches long, although the extreme length of the blrd itself la only twen-' tyeven inches.. '.'Z'l'jl ' Tommy artd the Wom.

They have an Interesting origin. Meteors or shoot ing stars have been bombarding the world from the beginning at a rate es timated at many thousands an hour, of which, however,, nn average of only five or six are visible to the naked eye In that time. , . Owiug to our protecting envelope of air few of these missiles reach us. In weight meteors vary from a ' few ounces to many pounds. Occasionally one Is of sufficient dimensions to sur vive the passage of eighty to a hun dred miles through, atf atmosphere in creasing In density as tbe earth Is ap proached. ; ' f. v . ' Tho speod at which they enter the atmosphere? calculated at not less than thirty-live miles a second, generates snob Intense heat by friction that the iron, of which' the meteor principally consists, te Immediately" reduced to an tftaiideSeent vaporwhfcb is the lumi nous train so freqnently seen in the heavens on a clear night The vapor rapidly cools and condenses In ' the form of these minute partfctos, which assume; the spherical f orm, aa . does snot during Its fall from the top of tbe tower.' . : . . Finally tbe little epheses are scatter ed by the winds anU currenta In the tipper air and gradually descend In their millions as an Invisifle. never ending shower.
