From the result of M. l?otularies recent survey, as reported by him to the French academy of sciences. it is generally believed that an in land sea may be created, 2o0 miles in length, witltout serious diffi culty. The practice at kindergarten schools of braiding bright colored bands of paper, sewing fine silk upon tracings, and the picking of holes over a tracing on paper, has become so noticeable injurious to tht fyftsight of children in most instances that the occupation is being abandoned in many schools and employment of other kinds substantiated. Since short-sightedness is almost always, caused bv strains sustained by the eye during study in early youth, and since the malady is be coming increasingly prevalent in this country, then should certainly be some steps taken to abate its continuaiic. Affection of the eye is seldom found among pupils of village schools, while in high schools and colleges, where the demand made upon the eye is necessarily much greater, its fre quency is increased. As a partial remedy, an improved typography of text bookj, a sufficient lighting of class rooms, and above all an abatement of the modern practice of "era in mi rig,' are suggested. Under the direction of the Vi enna Geographical society, au im portant Austrian expedition, under the leadership of Dr. Kmil Holub, will shortly be undertaken. A corresjKHident states that Dr. Holub intends crossing the whole length of Africa from south to north. He will start from the cape of Good Hope, and penetrate to the Zambesi, thence explore the Manitheummbunda territory, the watershed district between the Zambesi and the Congo, and from then visit the like sources of the Congo, and then through Darfur, he will endeavor to reach Egypt. The journey is expected to extend over three years, and if good luck attends the parties in their hazar dous journey, a most interesting report may be expected on their return. Scientists- vary much in their belief regarding the probable hight of the earth's atmosphere. Not many years ago the general idea placed it at less than one hun Jred miles. Some investigators have reacted as far as two hundred and fifty miles, but now comes Pn fessor M. Landeur, after several years of stud' and investigation, who places the distance at not less than 22,000. In corroboration of his calculations, he shows some what conclusively that the hight at which meteoric aiatter becomes incandescent on approaching the earth is far beyond the distance heretofore assigned to it, and therefore there must be an atmos phere at that great distance to produce the incandescence. His theory is also strengthened by the belief of other eminent scientists who attribute the accelerated movement and the revolving of the moon around the earth in thi influence of this extended belt of atmosphere. Otherwise, these gen tlemen claim that the moon would revolve as do other planets around the sun. To l,et. Several furnished or unfurnished rooms at Airs. .Uunsons lodging house.
