Tal K DAILY EXAMINER. JANUARY 22, 1881. Scientific Miscellany.

Lunar AND StveLLAR Heat.—The deli- cate radio-micrometer of Mr. C. V. Boys has been used for studying the heat of the; stars and the moon. ‘Though 60 sensitive as to be influenced by the heat of a candle. at a distance of a mile and three-fouths, | the instrument gave no pereeptible indica-| tion of héat from the brightest stars. The; indications produced. by the moon, how- ever, could b. detected if only one 150,000th aS great. An Iwsecr-DestroyInG APPARATUS.— The Kew Bulletin reports great destruction nen, (Liparis Monaicha), which at intervals has appeared in yast numbers iu Europe. The creatures are eaten by birde, and by wasps and other insects, but the most ¢ffective destroyer has heen found to be an als- exhauster operated near a powerful e ectiic light. The motks are attracted by the light, and a strong exhaust current of air drawn into a huge funnel sucks them into an underground chamber, where they are effectually buried. A similar destruction in Bast Prussia, in 1853, is said to have been relieved by a great storm, which drove the moths to sea, from which they were afterwards thrown upas a huge bank several miles long. ArricaN Earraworms-——Mr. Alvan M iison, the Assistant Colonial Secretary vf Lagos, traces to earthworms the aston- ishing rapidity with which land recovers from exhausting cultivation in the Yoruba country, West Africa. In the dry season the worm casts may be seen closely packed over scores of square miles. A caretul estimaie shows that a total of not less than 62,223 tons of subsoil, rich in plant food, lis brought tothe surface by the worms jevery year on each square mile of the cul- ltivable land, and that every particle of the ‘earth to the depth of two feet is brought to ‘the surface once in 27 years. It is to this activity of the humole workers in the sround that the natives owe their subsis- tence’ A correspondent of Nature points out that a better notion of our isolation from the fixed stars can be had by considering that each light-year of distance represents a mile on a scale giving one inch - to the sun’s distance from the earth. Thus, the eight of 61 Cygni is 74 (7.464) years in reaching us, and 7$ (7.499) wiles will re- present this star’s distance on a scale giv- ing one inch for the sun’s distance. Diamond mining in South Africa has re- vealed the existence in the earth's crust of circular or elliptical chimneys, from 390 to 500 yards in diameter and of considerably greater depth. M. Daubree believes that these were produced by gases at high pres- sure, aud he has imitated the phenomenon, ScrprisinG Srmivariry.—The great re- semblance of twins is not confined to per- sonal appearance, but extends to mental characteristics, and even to daily exper- iences. The biography of one of a pair is very likely to read much like that of the other. In his effurts to trace the respec- tive parts played by nature and by educa- tion in heredity, Mr. Francis Galton has sent out lists of questions concerning twins, and has received about eighty answers, with thirty-five sets of minute details. He is struck by the similarity between twins in the assuciation of their ideas, as shown in not less than 11 of the 35 cases. ‘*They on the same occasion,” he says, ‘“*make the same remarks, begin singing the same song at the same moment, and so on, or one would commence a sentence and the other would finish it. An observant friend graphically described to me the effect pro- duced on her by two such twins whom she had met casually. She said : ‘Their teeth grew alike, they spoke alike, and together, and said the same jhings, aui seemed just ene person.” One of the most curious anecdotes that 1 have receive’ concerning this similarity of ideas was thac one twin, A, who happened to be at a town in Scot- land, bought a set of champagne glasses, which caught his attention, as a surprise for his brother, B; while at the same time B, being in Eugland, bought asimilar set of t Cream, Cream of Witch Hazel, for oma, JOUNSONS DRUG STORF, Dec. 27, 1890 Corner Kent and Prince Streets.

The mean temperature was 805°. The highest extreme, how- ever, was reached as usual at Adelaide, where the mercury rose to 109° in the | shade on Jan. 13th, and climed to 1707 > | in the sun. This station was also the driest, its mean humidity being 63 per cent. The collest station was Winnipeg, where the temperature fell to 426° below zero on Feb. 23rd. This station had also the least rain fall, 14.95 inches. ‘The greatest rain fall was 73.79 inches, which was recorded at Trinidad. The cloudiest and dumpest station was London, with a mean hamidiiy of 31 per cent. How a Foal Grows. One of the most comical and _helpless- ; looking creatures imaginable isa very young foal. He sprawls painfully upon the stable floor, and with his tangled mass of abnormal legs looks like some huge spider or polypus. When the foal is a few moments old he wishes to attain a standing position, so aiter considering the matter carefully, avd languidly gazing at his mother, he stretches out his legs into dilfereut corners of tie stable and essays to rise. The stable floor now behaves like a hurricane-tossed ship; his legs come back under him and get en- tangled with each other, aud when he has partly risen the floor rises up and bangs him a tremendous thump. Again he en- deavors to rise, and his mother, by way of encouraging him, plants her gentle hoofs all over her offspring, knocking him down when he is up. By and by the foal fiads milk, and he makes the most of his discovery. He does not bother about high license, lecal option or Sunday closing; ke wants a drink, and now that he knows whers to get it, he means to have it. The fval does not foster any prcehioition ideas, either; his owner's sympath es are entirely with him hire. After the foal has swallowed all the milk he possibly can, and added considerably to his girth thereby, he starts out and tries to walk alittle. Slowly, carefully, as if he tad skates on, he tukes his experimental steps, with stiff knees and a flutteriag heart, then reels and totters, tries vainly je recover himself, and falls with a thud upon the floor. Sie Isaac Newton dis- covered tbe law of gravitation very sudden- ly, and so has our foal. After lying down and pondering over discouraged, he thinks that while there’s life there’s hope, so rises to his feet again, blinking at the daylight and wondering why his mother is making that crunching noise with her jaws. The foal, by the way, is a thirsty as the Washington political Micawbers, and drinks as often, and sometimes when in a stable with a lot of other horses will mistake some other mare for his mother. Alas! Alas! mistakes cost dearly with foals as well as men. The other mare promptly convinces the foal of his error by kicking him across the stable. Though I have often seen a foal look surprised at this forcible demon- stration of his error, I have never yet seen one stay to argue the matter This style of argument and reasoning, while open to crit- icism, is final and convincing, and has ru- merous admirers among bipeds as well as quadrapeds. The foal soon recovers from the shock, is ravenously hungry by this time, and not being able to make an affi- davit as to which is his lawful mother, is afraid to approach anything lest another argument may ensue. Unlike Goldsmith’s achovlmaster, who ‘“‘when vanquished could argue still,” the foal admits that the mare was quite right, and that the hasty retreat on his part was not only a necessary policy, bus a wise one. He cudgels his brains for some time, and when he has gazed at his mother sufficiently from a safe distance to be reasonably sure he is not going to make another mistake, he approaches her as timidly asa young man meets his landlady when his weekly sub- scriptions are vverdue, The foal is right this time, and in order that he may be sure on future occasions, he follows the sage ad- vice of Cap’en Ed’dard Cuttle: ** When fouad, make a note on,” When the foal is out in a pasture other difficulties present themselves, It is a hot morning, and he ia near the fence, at some di.tance from his mother, Again that over- powering thiist preys upon him, and he must be relieved. He shuffles toward her until he comes toa shadow thrown by a telegrapi pole, and it is the most terrible-looking object that he has ever seen. How shall he get over it? That awful-looking black thing, so weird and mysterious, Very hesitatingly he approaches it, starts violently back, and ag+in gues up toit. Hesnifls at it, snorts with terror, and then screwing up his courage to the sticking piace makes a prodigious effort and leaps over the uncanny thing. The foal takes his meals onthe European plan, and when he has stuffed to his entire satis faction goes back to the mysterious black object and tempts fate again After several hours he arrives at the conclusion that it is entirely harmless, and turning his back kieks up bis heels deris:velv at it. As the fol grows, though not gifted with divine effiatos, he fancies he knows consider- able and begins to get impudently sdveuturons. A sort of Stanley spirit of exploration com-s upon him, avid he concludes to explore th, surrounding region. He takes short excu: sions away fom his mother’s side, with a ‘*see-you- later” lock upon his face, but every few moments comes flying back, panting and sweating with terror. One time he saw a watermelon which he fancied was going to bite him; another time the cause of his stam- pede was a bioodthirsty-looking creature witt four ears and a beli on its neck. Hitherto the foal has been brought in from ture every night wi h his motner, but now e has arrived at the latch-key pe iod and ‘‘ won’t go home till morning” sentiments o} youthful males, so while bis mether walks demurely into the stable he makes a wild rush for the other end of the pasture, evidently reseived to put agirdle round the earth iv about three seconds, He th nksthis is splendid, | ing Way. The grooms, showering compliments and soothing word-paintings upon him, sun until they are sore, and the frolic invarisby ends in passion, profanity and punishmeni. He is as difficult te catch as a phantom: it is jimpossibie to 'ead him, and as for driving him it would be easier to drive an inebriate asylum. The foal’s courage grows in proportion to his stature, and soon he is afraid of nothing. He often jumps the boundery fences and strells leisurely into some a jacent honse, where he gets a burried and liberal application of a club or whip administered by the startled occupants. Taking this as a delicate bint that he is not wanted, the cot travels else- where, rosming, for a brief period at bis own sweet will, a sort of equine Child Harold. Unfortunately his guiden days do not last long, and before he realizes it he has grown up and been broken it. Hard work ead, I am sorry to say, harsh treatment is often his lot now, and the poor, honest creature is too often made by the lords of creation to realize most painfully “how full of briars is this working-day world,” Re aA = — _ eee Se eer ee ete ee FOO EERE EEO SOLERO eed PPLE ODODE ELL OLD LEO OLA SOES CURE { in its First Stages.
