JENTIFIC MISCELLANY. | SC Considering three varying character istes of races (cephalic index, or ratio of | extreme width to extreme length of skull, | and hair), a French anthropegist finds that, while ander three headings these give twenty-seven possible combinations, in reality only six occur in considerable | numbers among the inhabitants of Europe, | with four more in smaller numbers, He concludes that only the following six primary races—excluding Turks, etc.— inhabit Europe:Northwestern race—blonde, dolichocephalic, (long headed), very tall; eastern race—blonde, sub-dolichocepbalic, short; Ibers insular race—brown, very dojichecepbalic, very shor; western race —brown, very brachycepbalic (broad- headed) ehort; Atlanto- Mediterrauean— race—brown, sub-dolichocephalic, tall ; Adriatic race — brown, brachy - cephalic, tail. These four secondary races are probably due to mixtures of the pri- A race of Eastern brussia—blond mary. mesvcaphalic (medium-beaded), tall; of Sweden— blonde, mesocephalic, very sbort; of Ireland and Belgium— medium, sub-dolichocephalic, tall; of Holland to Bavaria—auburn, eub brachycephalic, medium, The primary object of the insect-grafting experiments begun a year or more ago by Mr. Henry E Crampton, Jr., bas been a study of insect coloration, coucerning which the results have oot yet been satis— factory.

Woodward of the British Museum, has changed the character of a considerable portion of tne British Isles toa remarkle degree. The borders of the fens were once covered witb forest, and the beaver was one of the most plentiful anima's of the region. Its dams turned the streams from. their natural course. The water—ae in the valleys of the Lea, the Ouse,the Cam, and the Nere—wasthus madeto flow over the country at random, the valleys gradually becoming stagnant, areas filled with bog mose, and forming what we know as the fen lands, A surgical operation upon a woman of thirty-eight hes resulted in a fistula throvgh which Dr. Franz Pafaff has been e.abled to study the effects of drugs on the eecreticn of bile. The investigations cor- recta general delusion by showing that drugs have no influence. Calomel and corrosive sublimate did not affect the flow of bile, salol caused @ very slight increase marked eficct was the womaus own toil and the onjy substance that produced any administered in pills. These pills increas- ed the secretion more than a third in twenty-tour hours, the quantity becoming less than before an ceasing to give the pills. An effort has been made to determine the pulling strength of elepbante, horses, and men.

The sterilization of grape~juice— a pro- cess having been devised by M. Rosenstei, a French chemist—is urged in Algeria as a means of creating a home market for the product of the vineyards. The religion of the Mohammedan does not forbid the use of unfermented grape-juice, as it does that of ordinary wine, and temperance sovieties outside of Algeria would welcome a pleasing drink free trom alcohol. Wooden pavements in Paris have been condemned, es they serve as a breeding place for all kinds of dangerous germs. A recent interesting discovery is that many lizards, in running rapidly, take an erect posture and use the hind legs only. This curious fact was first noticed by Mr. W. Saville-Kent, an Australian observer, in the Australian Frilled Lizard, and has since been seen by him in other Australian species. The structure of American lizards leads him toinfer that Mr. | MacIntyre, Henry Prestoe, who hae lived twenty years in the West Indias, confirms these con- clusions, stating that every jizsri he haa seen running—from ve Tygnana which is five feet ‘ong and lives chiefly in trees, down to the smallest mite one sees” oceasionally about the stones—mov es on two legs when hurried.

You suffer pain in fifty forms and yet won't call the doctor, be- cause you hope that the pain “will go away after a while.” And, too, you know by experience, that that first visit of the doctor is generally followed by many others, with the inevitable consequence of a big bill “for professional services.” You don’t know what to do for yourself or what to take. But suppose that you could get free, ab- solutely free, the advice of cne of the most Emineni PRUSICIGRS == in the United States? Youcan. The phy- sician is right here. He has an office in the building, he has a staff of correspondents to assist him, and anyone and everyone, who needs medical advice is invited to write to him. If it’s baby’s health or mother’s or the health of any member of the family you may write about it, sure of a careful read- ing of your letter, sure of a conscientious diagnosis of your case, Sure of a Cure if cureis possible. Every letter will be held as a strictly confidential communication, Remember these facts.

Postal and Traveling Accommodations of the Old German City. The post relations of ancient Stuttgart were unpretenticus. The two maid- servants of the postmaster distributed through the city the daily letters, which they carried in the same basket with the family marketing. Letters were carried out of the city by postilions. There was a number of couriers, and as a surety agaiust mistakes there hung in the post office, beside the curious mail bags, a huge whip, with which, when the com- mission had been given to the courier, a powerful blow for ‘he strengthening of his memory was dealt him. Coaches and post wagons were inno- cent of any suggestion of comfort—a high, clumsy wooden box was secured by thick leathern straps, and in the cavernous bottom were confined together packages and passengers. Up and down hill, over ruts and rocks, the cumbrous vehicle rattled on its way, the hapless travelers being ever on the defensive against the assaults of tumbling boxes and bundles. And then the weary slow- ness of the way! Formerly the journey from Stuttgart to Tubingen was made in 12 hours. The same journey is now made in four hours. The postiliona alighted tv take refreshments when it pleased them, and one traveler has left a dismal record of a journey that he once made, during which the drives took the horses from the carriage and attached them to a hay wagon that had been left mired in the mud. The man drove the wagon into the next village, and when there he joined the grateful neighbors in a carousal, while the tired passengers languished on the dusty country road.—Elise J. Allen in Har- per’s Magazine. The Modern Agnostic. We look at our churches with their congregations, growing in numbers and dwindling in faith, says H. G. Chap- man in The Atlantic, and we ask our- selves: In all these buildings, cheap or costly, what real prayers rise, and of those that rise do any get above the roof? What God hears them and has there ever been an answered prayer? We look at the face of the dead and repeat a burial service. If after the manner of men I have forght with beasts at Ephe- sus, what advantageth it me if the dead rise not? And as we say the words we ask ourselves, ‘‘Do the dead rise?’’ And if any one is found who believes these things he knows that there is another at his elbow who believes them not a whit or an atom, and these two can hit on no universe that shall satisfy both, mor can ove be poet to the other.
