POPULAR SCIENCE,

1 AoCording to Paris publications the observations of Alva Clark and Pergival Lowell in Arizona have increased the number of canals visible on Mars grom seventy-nine to IS3, all in geometrical proportions. The seas under these observations have turned to prairies and the lakes to oases. In an old Indian mound, near Cedar- . Villa, Ohio, was found a stone Image of a woman in a sitting posture. It is smoothly and beautifully carved and shows the features clearly. Prof. Stahl thinks the find dates back many centuries, probably to the times of the Shepherd kings, and long prior tc the mound builders. The planet Mars resembles the earth more Closely than any other of the solar system that we know anything about. Mars is smaller than the earth, end its specific gravity is less. Its atmosphere is rarer than that on the highest mountains. It has probably no oceans and very little free water, except in spring, when the snow melts. As to Mare being inhabited, it is not impossible. G. Brinton in Science, “were developed tat Prof. Ranke at the last meeting of the German Anthropological Society, in relation to the relative weights of the brain and spinal cord in man. It is well known that man has not the heaviest brain of any animal j the whale and the elephant have heavier. Nor has he the heaviest in proportion to his weight; some singing birds, vailput small apes and the mole have proportionately heavier brains. What Ranke brings out is that the weight pf the human brain is much greater in proportion to the weight of the spinal cord than in any other veterbrate; and tbi* therefore, constitutes an anatomfepal distinction of man, strongly confrosting frlyn with all other animal teaml*

HE WAS REPRIEVED.

Bnt Thron#h an BnorUac H * Died Jut the Same. The custom in English navy, np io the beginning of the present century, >f keeping back from men reprieved, ifter sentence of death, all knowledge ►f such reprieve until the last moment, vhen ell the formalities attending the execution of the sentence, except the iread one that came last of all, had jeen duly observed, is answerable for several terrible mishaps involving tragic consequences. One dreadful affair >f the kind occurred in 1766. A marine rad been sentenced to death for desertion, and the day fixed for his execu:ion had arrived. The man received he sacrament, and was duly conducted :o the place fixed for his execution, unler escort of an officer’s guard, with all he routine formalities usual on such iread occasions—his coffin immediately preceding him, and the band playing the “Dead March.” The preliminaries »ver, he was placed in a position to re;eive the fatal volley. His eyes were bound. The firing party stepped forward and took post within six paces. “Make ready.” Click, dick, click went the flint locks. “Present.” Up went the muskets, all leveled in a row at the prisoner’s breast. Then there was a pause as the officer in command, holding in his hand, rolled up, the fatal handkerchief, the dropping of which had been arranged as the signal to “fire,” turned away. Every one looked on, wondering at the delay while the officer was apparently trying to get at something in his tunic pocket. He grasped it and pulled out a paper, but in his eagerness dropped the handkerchief. Instantly there was a line of spurting flame points—a rattle and an echoing crash—as the nine reports rang out in unison! The culprit pitched forward heavily on his face with a dull thud, aud lay stretched out as dead as a stoue. It was too late when, almost throwing himself across the line of fire, the officer ejaculated to tones of horror, “My God, stop! Here’s his reprieve!”

ODDS AND ENDS.

Queen Victoria owns $2,000,000 worth of china. A Sevres set is estimated at $500,000. The city of Philadelphia is reported to have made a profit of nearly $300,000 last year from its gas works. Statistics show that about one-flfth of the wage-earners of New York City are compelled to work on Sunday, In China an army recruit must be able to jump across a ditch six feet wide, or he Is not eligible for enllstififnt centenarian who died recently in London had smoked steadily since he was 15 years old.

Congressman White of Illinois wears a seal ring whose historic interests far surpass the intrinsic value of the jewel, although it is probably the finest intaglio in Washington. It is a plain hyacinth, bearing the classic head of Antonins Pius, ruler of Rome from 188 to 161, and was cut and worn by the great Roman philosopher and emperor 1,700 years ago. Mr. White secured it during his sojourn in Italy, paying for it about S6OO in American money.

Where Comic Valentines Come From.

Fifteen million comic valentines are printed annually by a firm in Brooklyn, who virtually monopolize this pecu--■liar business and give employment to 400 men and women the year round. Most of the caricatures turned out at this plant are drawn by a well-known magazine artist who says that he designs them only when he is out of humor. Instead of venting his anger In words he draws diabolical pictures of the person with whom he is angry, and the more horrible the picture the more fiendishly happy he is. The pretty lace work affairs that hold GnDids and

When dandruff appears it is usually regarded as an annoyance * It should be regarded as a disease. Its presence indicates an unhealthy condition of the scalp, which, if neglected, leads to baldness. Dandruff should be cured at once. The most effective means for the cure is found in AYER'S HAIR VIGOR. It promotes the growth of the hair, restores it when gray or faded to its original color, and keeps the scalp clean and healthy. “For more than eight years I was greatly troubled with dandruff, and though a young man, my hair was fast turning gray and fallingout.

HISTORICAL. In the light of history Napoleon HI, becomes a curious.phenomenon. But his morose idealism proved to France Mm greatest misfortune that'ever visited It. Until 1869 that country was surrounded by nothing but Inconsequential neighbors. At the downfall 9f Napoleon it touched elbows with two powers of magnitude. To the last of his reign Napoleon nourished the illusion that at Magenta and Solferlno he had procured for France a mighty and a faithful friend. The phrase, “Driving a coach and six through an act of Parliament,” occurs In the “Memoirs of Ireland,” published anonymously in 1716, but commonly attributed to Oldmixon. In speaking of Stephen Rice, who was made Chief Baron of the Irish Exchequer by James IL in 1680, and was removed by William 111. in 1690, Oldmixon sayst “He distinguished himself by his inveteracy against the Protestant interest and the settlement of Ireland, having been often heard to say before he was judge, “that he would drive a coach and six horses through the Act of Settlement.’ ” This date (circa 1686) Is at least a century earlier £han the date popularly assigned to the origin of the phrase. Coltsfoot, or the leaves of the lettuce, being slightly narcotic, would form a harmless make believe for the good folk who persuade themselves that 'hey could not sleep a wink were they deprived of their evening comfort. Ages ago both Greeks and Romans, according to Dioscorides and Pliny, found comfort in smoking through a reed or pipe the dried leaves of coltsfoot, which relieved them of old coughs and difficult breathing. We can picture the legionary in Britain’s bleak atmosphere, while pacing the Roman wall, trying to console himself in his lonely vigil with the vapor from his “elphin pipe,” fragments of which have been found among the ruins of those early memorials to the Scots' persistent determination to travel southward. And as to the lettuce, It has been famous since the time of Galen (Claudius Qalenus), who asserts that he found relief from sleeplessness by taking it at night .noast beef, or fowl, will be muck nicer if they are kept covered whiU roasting; it keeps them moist; uncover past time enough to let them brown
