Elliot Smith finds the bi-utus of most
uon-uiumllied bodies of the cemeteries
have been naturally preserved even
from predynastlc times. The convolu
tions may be mapped, and an account
is soon to be given of tbe brain struc
ture of Egyptians of different periods.
A file specially designed for work
ins on gun metal Is being used in
French machine shops. It has shallow j
dlagoual channels, at Intervals of half
an Inch, the teeth being on the raised
portions between the channels. It is
claimed that these ulos. clogging much
less rapidly than others, increase the
work done by about fifty per cent. ,
No white pigments have been found
in feathers, and the whiteness of white
feathers is ascribed to total reflection
of light from their exposed surfaces.
Some have supposed the reflection to
be from air spaces, or bubbles, in the
feather structue, but It. M. Strong, of
Ilaverford College, says that the white
effect Is powdered glass, upon the
small size of tbe structural elements.
These have a large number of surfaces
so placed for any puhliluu of the eye
that there Is a maximum reflection to
the eye, and almost no absorption by
the unplgmented feather substance.
To get the eggs of a new species of
mosquito Inhabiting a South Carolina
swamp, Dr. W. C. Coker, of the Uni
versity of North Carolina, had to bor
row the aid of a horse. The horse was
driven Into the low ground haunted by
the mosquitoes, and when he came out
the insects were found drilling through
his skin. They were carefully re
moved, put In a tin bucket, fed daily
with blood from tbe band, and after
about five days, to tbe doctor's great
delight, they laid their eggs in the
water. It was to procure and study
these eggs that he bad taken all bis
trouble. In such homely ways science
sometimes makes its advances.
Astonishing effects as a tonic and
blood-former are claimed by Dr. Nau
gler, of Paris, for balloon ascensions,
lie states that an air trip of two hours
gives a marked increase In the red
corpuscles of the blood, this Increase
continuing to be noticeable for at least
ten days afterward, and that five as
censions within six or seven weeks
impart more benefit to an anaemic per
son than three months in the moun
tains. The good results begin almost
Immediately, prol6nged stay In the
upper air being of no advantage and
possibly harmful. He urges that the
city should give poor people the bene
fits of a change of climate by provid
ing a large balloon capable of taking
fifty patients daily on an aerial out
ing. A remarkable example of tbe power
of mimicry possessed by some persons,
but altogether lacking in others, was
furnished by the late Professor
Roberts-Austen, of England. Ills
friend. Prof. T. E. Thorpe, recalls
many interesting Instances of Roberts
Austen's singular gift, which was pur
posely exercised only occasionally for
tbe entertainment of his scientific con
freres at a club meeting. But wbat
lends special interest to the case wa9
the fact that Roberts-Austen frequent
ly exercised his power without being
aware of It. "I have heard him, to my
terror." says Professor Thorpe, "in the
course of a conversation gradually
copy tbe tones and Inflections of a
man's voice, and have seen blm re
produce his manner to his very face."
In such cases there was no conscious
ness of what was being done In the
mind of the mimic, or on the part of
the person Imitated, and Professor
Thorpe believes the origin of tbe un
intended mimicry was sympathy alone.
Cold Water Absorbs Poison.
In connection with tbe subject of
water there Is one peculiar property of
that liquid with which everyone
should be made acquainted, and that is
its capacity for absorbing impurities,
which Increases proportionately the
colder It -gets. Hence water that has
stood In an Insufficiently ventilated
sleeping chamber all night Is not only
unpleasant, but positively Injurious to
drink, since It readily absorbs tbe poi
sonous gases given off by respiration
and action of tbe skin. An ordinary
pitcher of water, under such conditions,
at a temperature of sixty degrees will
be found to have absorbed during the
nlgbt from a pint to a pint and a half
of carbonic acid gas, and an Increase
of ammonia. Ice water Is an objection
able drink at all times, but If It Is In
dulged In, the vessel containing It
should never be left uncovered In sleep
ing or sitting rooms, because at freez
ing point Its capacity for absorbing
these deleterious substances Is nearly
doubled.
If a fool possesses tact and assur
ance be will distance the wise guy who
