KINSHIP OF ANIMALS. The analogies of the creation teach us that everything is spi n of the. stuff and upon one plan. Let a pour, erfulexarapleof this fact betaken in hand at ouoa and aome fwrtion of the apimcl creation be utilised. Now, we have ail of us necks, some of ns graceful necks, some of ns apoplectic necks and some of us no nocks at ail to speak of.. Again, the giraffe has a very long nock, the elephant a very short one, and the porpoise apparent, ly stops fckort of one altogether, but in each and every case we lind seven cervical vertebras—and seven only. Again, they and human beings also, aill have the same number and variety of muscles and l igaments. Some of "them certainly hro simply mere representatives. For instance, the powerful ligamentum nucha? of tho horse is hut very feebly reinresented in man. “Padding” accounts for all tho rest—a little more or less of fat and cellular tissue. Our limbi form beautiful subjects for comparison. Throughout tho vertebrates they never exceed four in numljer. They aro all modifications of the one type, whether we take the fins of fish, the wings and legs of birds, fore and hindlegs of quadrupeds, or arms and legs of mum. Comparing t ic leg of a bird with the leg of a man, we see that tho complete leg of a bird shows the thigh bone, then tho tib ia or lower leg bone, and then in the place of tho tarsus and metatarsus a single bone;, with, at its lower extremity, a small hone supporting the four toes. Primarily tho analogy between the last five bones of the bird and the so call- ! ed tarsus, metatarsus and toes of man does not seem very complete, but if tho chick in tho egg be examined its legs will be found to consist 6f the thigh bcn% of tbe tibia, of two tarsal and mreo or four metatarsal

bones o»d tno toes or phalanges. | The upper tarsal bon® subsequently J becomes anebylosed with tbo tibia; and tbo lower one with tbo cortsoli-; dated metatarsus. Now tbo analogy ; becomes much more complete. f Tbe borse has but a single] metatarsal bone (tbo third), with rudiments of the second and fourth. These rudimentary metatarsal bones of tbe horse are very interesting. B> means of tnem it is comparatively easy to trace out bis descent. The; whale possesses tbe rudiments of bind logs, tbo boa constrictor jjossesses also the rudiments of a leg j arkl a pelvis, and the rudiments | of the wings are discoverable in tbe; apti rvn. The third eyelid of tbo bird exists also in seme amphibians and s reptiles and in sharks; also in manj as a rudimentary "structure. Tbe mamter in which cows, deer and sheep tour up the grass when they; are feeding, plucking away at the! tufts, hi familiar to any observant man. Tbe incisors of tbo upper teeth I are wanting. The interesting anal-1 ogy is the fact that the teeth are really there, but they are uncut—j that is to say, they hav© never; pierced thegtun.-r-Gent leitfan’s Mag- j azine. _ 'j ■ 1 The Battnau. A most curious utensil of a Balia i man dwelling is a lug cement oven, | like a cone, at tbo bock of tbo house. | In tbigi the family bread is baked. | Babamans are physiologically j starved, and their tbiti, attenuated forms show it.* An unvarying diet of fish and fruit is not nour&hmg enough, and tbo fact speaks ipr itself in these islanders. The white; Babamans are homely and sallow unless burned so that ti e complexion I is a thing of the jiast. They rarely— j some never—wear shoes. Hence feet in thes® latitudes are feet and not merely the ends of legs. I used to j gaze in admiration at the feet that' daily and nigkily visited our. schooner. The owners of the append- j ages could walk where a shod foot could not bear to tread. The skin be-! comes tougher than leather. Black Bahamans are the finest specimensj of the negro race to be seen outside; of Africa—strapping fellows, with magnificent arms and chests—but they are dreadful beggarsand dreadful liars.—Montreal Star.

Bread. Mrs. Borer is an aident advocate of the whole wheat floor. “Bread, ” she says, “made from this floor not only contains Taper cent more nourishment than white turead, hot it is nature’s own remedy for dyspepsia and kindred ailments, brought on by excess of starch in white floor bread. Apoplexy and Bright’s disease am tie traced in many cases to an excessive use of starchy food. Entire wheat bread is so rich in flavor, palatability and nourishment that only a few weeks’ regular jise ,of it suffices to make all other bread taste flat, insipid and unsatisfying. New York Times. > A Deck P»i*tiiter. A sailor at Liverpool hailed a cab along,-side his shipto drive him home. ; The cabby proceeded to put tho luggage on the top of tho cab, when the salt called out: “Biere,'cabby, none o’ that for me! It’s me that rides op on deck, and my box must go in the hold!’*—Liver pool Memory.

/ ^ its Shadow thirty miles away. Am Sicht From » Orilfcnda Mwintsilu at Sunrise. Just about four times a year the sunrise visitor to Mount Diabio's summit may witness a rare phenomenon, the “shadow of the devil, “ talked of vaguely for scores of years all along the Contra Costa county side A long time ago the Spaniards •who dwelt here and there about Diablo’s foothills noticed the phenomenon* and gave it the name it still bejitsi, investing it with superstitious fancies, and holding it to be a thing significanfof good or ill. The sheep men or rancher whom sunrise found near enough the peak on the quarterly shadow days to see the strange landscape freak would cross himself piously and go home believing he had an omen. , Last Sunday the first photograph ever taken of the shadow was made from the top of Diablo afew minutes after sunrise. It is in a way a notable .picture, and the taking of it was extremely difficult, "as the lights and shades are varied and extremely hard to manage. The party which went up Diablo was composed of a quartet of cyclers, one of whom, J. J. B. cArgenta, is an enthusiastic member of the Camera club At 4 a. m. Sunday the party rose and went to tbo summit, pushing their wheels before them in the darkness over the roughest sort of a mountain rood. By the almanac the sun was scheduled to appear that morning at 32 minutes after 6 o’clock, but it was 23 minutes to 7 o’clock before he appeared to the waiting quartet. At 20 minutes to 7 o’clock the shadow appeared, and the picture was taken. It is no wonder that the Spaniards called it the devil's shadow. It has an appearance of the nether regions, and is mysterious. It only lasts for a few minutes, and then is swept out of the early morning scenes as a breath from a looking glass fades. If the observer did not know just where to look for it, it might easily come and pass for another three months and the watcher not bo any the wiser.

There is a simple enough explanation for tho shallow. Diablo is a fall | 1,000 foot above any of the1 other mountains in the rangenbontit, and when the sun rises behind it a triangular shadow of the great conical peak is thrown against Grizzly, which is back of Berkeley, 30 miles away. The town west of Diablo, Walnut Creek, on tho left, and all the cluster of tiny hills that surround Diablo like brilliants aronnd a Stone of the first water are still in darkness. The two largo valleys at cither side seem almost black when tbe heavy shadow is thrown on the scene slantingly clear and sudden. Tho lights that set off tho shade are peculiar in tho extreme, and that is what makes photography up there such a delicate and difficult matter. On the right side of the mountain the light nearest to the black line that accentuates" tho shadow was palest yellow, shading gradually into green, until it was lest in tho green of the hills. On the left the line was reddish, and the shadow itself was blue black. No donbt Grigzly is overshadowed every morning by its pre-eminent neighbor, 30 miles away, hut the atmosphere is seldom kindly enough to allow’ one to see it from Diablo. No one ever seems to have seen the shadow from the intermediate lowlands in darkness.—San Francisco Chronicle. An Intelligent Walter. The rising sun was kissing the gilded dome of Boston’s celebrated statehouse whfen a man might have been seen seated at a small table in a restaurant qdpthat city. j “Waiter,” the man said, “you may bring me some beer—some hock beer—hie, hac, hoe. ” And he laughed with hihaself mightily over the flow of his humor. Whereupon' time went cm and on and on. “Waiter!” then cried the man once again, “did not I long ago order some hock beer?” “You did, sir, ” quoth the waiter courteously, “but you instantly thereafter declined it” Which teaches us that we should be careful what we say to a Boston waiter.—^x?kland Tribune.

Red Flannel. The last idol to be broken is the I ■worship of red flannel. Those stern; iconoclasts, the scientists, say that; the notion that there is any virtue , in wearing red flannel against the j skin in rheumatism and kindred ail- j meats has no foundation in fact. | Flannel is valuable wear, hut the red ! tint has no value except as it receives the light. And instead of advising it these persons forbid it, on the ground that the dye may irritate some tender skins.—New York Times._ Johnny explain*. Teacher—Why did you hit Willie I Winkum with a stone? Little Johnny—He—he got mad i and looked as if he’d like to hit me with something, so I jus’ chucked ♦he stone over to him, so he could throw it at me,—Good News. i

MOW YO CLEAN LENSES. flatMgpttpHa* mad Telescope Owaers C*a De ll TkcuMln* WiUMd Dw^r. On© erf tli©. first things which the owner of a lens, either of a telescope car of a photographic camera, wants to Imow* is how to dean it. More dust cap he? removed with a camel’s hail* brush, there being nowhere found any opinions forbidding that. But in the changes of an ordinary climate a lens will get considerably blurred with filmy ecerm illations, even though it may never have been | touched by the hand or brought in con tact with grease in any form. Yet satisfactory knowledge of how to! clean a lens seoins to be always difficult to get. A practical photographer oiioa said that if a finger mark should i come upon a lens which he valued very highly he would immediately I return it to its European manufacturers. He would not dare to touch it himself. i * Lens cleaning is simple and easy, j Popular Astronomy contains a juiper I on 1‘his subject by one of the first of j authorities, Mr. J, A. Brashear, one I of the leading telescope makers liv-j ing. Mr. Brashear disposes of the j common advice that on “no account! should two glasses forming an ob-j jeclivo bo separated or taken apart j by an amateur. ” Any one may ven-j tore upon taking an objective apart j and. cleaning it, provided he will only do it carefully. In the first place, Mr. Brashear j says, “Do not use either fine chamois j skin, tissue piper, or an old silk handkerchief, or any other such material as is usually advised. ’’ Use | cheesecloth. It is not tho wiping ma- j terial, though, that is apt to do the! mischief, but tho fine dust particles, | which mav be silicious and become j attached to tho glass. This is the J way to begin on the elective: Take a wooden bowl, cleaned with j soap and water; then half fill it with j clean water of about the same ten-j peraturo as the glass, and put in a; teaspoonful of ammonia in half a | mil of water. First wash a niece of

cheesecloth thoroughly with soap J and water, and rinse and clean. Then | pla<3e it in the bowl or pail, so that j tho lens won’t slip. ’Never use the j same pi^p© of cheesecloth twice. klr. Brash oar says that when the lens has been dusted arid placed in tho water ho prefers to rub it with the palins of his cleaned hands, although cheesecloth is good. There seems to Ikj absoh-.tely no danger of scratching it when plenty of water is used. When thoroughly washed, hike the glass out, lay it on a bundle of cheesecloth, and use several ] ieces of the, same, which have beer previously washed clean, nod dried, and dry it. Don’t let it drain dry. Take np all the moisture with the :!oth. Vigorous rubbing will do no h: rm if j the surfaces have no abrading material. “I have yet,” says Mr. Bmshear, “to injure a glass cleaned in this way. ” An objective can bo cleaned without taking it out of its cell. First) dust off tho particles ; then ti e the eheesecloth with soap and water. Go over tho surface gently with one piece of cloth, and throw it array and take another; then a thir l one. When the glass is clean, take a piece of dry cloth and dry it. Of course photographic lenses can be cleaned in the same way. Pwtato Perfume. “There is one odorous essence in very common use, ” said Dr. F. G. Coalter of Indianapolis, ‘‘of which the majority of people know nothing whatever. This is potato ether, distilled from potato spirit. No one would suppose that humble vegetable ca]»ble of yielding a perfume. Yet it does yield three, and very good ones they are. They go by the; names of pear, apple and grille oil, from a resemblance between their odors and t^iese fruits. Confectioners use them largely to perfume their finest candies. Chemistry tells some queer stories about perfumes. It is found that the sole constituents of juniper oil, attar of rosemary and | that of lemons and turpentine are really the same, seven parts carbon, with one of hydrogen. We cannot j combine these substances so as to form any one of the perfumes men- j tioned, nor explain why, with the j same constituent parts, they exhale odors so different. Eau de cologne, j which won fame and wealth forgot only a family, hut a city, is rtially i indebted to the orange for most of, its charm, there being four different perfumes distilled from it whiciiare used as ingredients in eau do Cologne.”—St. Louis Globe-Democrat, i

A Stetwmtii Downed. “J’m sorry Bill got beat, ” said the Constituent. “That there bill he "was intending to get passed 'will never j git through, I suppose.” * | “What was it?” asked the etherj constituent „ * , J “W’y» 7W know what is called a, derelict—one of them abandoned j ships that is sich a danger tons riga- [ tkm?” f . * 1 “Yes.” , "Well, Bill he allowed tq git a bill through requiring tl&m all to t arry red lights at night. It would ’a’ been a big thing fer navigation i:nd fer Bill too.”—Indianapolis Jquj h U %
