M e te o r o lo g ic a l Science U.inbo«llcil In P o p
u lar Sayings — T h e M i x i i i ' i Influence.
The poraistent survival of weather lore
in these davs of intellectual emancipation
is not at all remarkable when we con
sider the extent to which the vulgar «ay-
ings etnltody real truths. A few years
ago Messrs. Abercroinby and Marriott
emltarked on an extremely interesting
inquiry with a view to determine! by
actual comparison, how far the popular
proverbs express relations, or sequences,
which the results o f meteorological
science show to l>e real. The investiga
tion proved that something likea hundred
of the more popular sayings are, under
ordinary conditions, trustworthy. Such
being the case, we need not l»e surprised
that simple country folk prefer familiar
couplets to ail the “ isoliars.” ‘ ‘cyclones’ *
and ‘ ‘synchronous charts” iu the world.
I f “ hills clear, rain near,*’ means the
same as “ the presence of a wedge shaped
area o f high pressure, accompanied by
great atmospheric visibility, is likely to
be followed l>v the advance o f a disturb
ance with rain and southerly winds,”
which for all practical purposes it does,
the preference is justified on tlie mere
ground of breath economy. The thirty-
one words demanded by science stand no
chance against four.
Hut it is unfortunate that, along with
the
limited number of folksayings
founded on truth, there has survived a
very large number founded on the grosaest
error. These latter have borrowed cre
dence and respect from the proved credi
bility o f the others, ami ap|>arently they
are all destined to sink or swiiu together.
Hammer as we will at certain favorite
proverbs which we know to l»e based
uj>on error, it is all in vain. The rever-
ence for tradition is too much for us.
And o f all the supe st it ions, pure and
simple, which defy our attempts at de-
struct ion, tho most invulnerable are those
ascribing certain effects to the influence
o f the moon.—John Westwood Oliver in
Popular Science Monthly.

THE

However far liack in the dim |ast the
pauoraina idea ran be traced, the rollcT
pyuorama is comparatively modern, and
its ciireer was destined to be brief, for its
mill's o f canvas with crude color fur
nished pictures that were devoid of en
during qualities. It gave rise or revived
an intiiiitelv lietter and more instructive
and valuable exemplar in the present
panorama that the eastern cousin calls
the cyclorama. History credits Robert
Barker, a Scotch artist, with the inven
tion o f the circular panorama, he having
exhibited in Edinburgh that city’» pan

of London, sea fights and tiie N a

panorama and that of the present there is
a deep gulf fixed. The former carried
