An interesting experiment is described iu Le Cbercheur. I'u a lighted caudb behind a bottle, pickle jar, stove pi|»e or any other object liuving polished rarfocn then station yourself nlxmt t»vdve inches from the object, so that it bides the flame of the candle from you, uttil blow with your breath. The caudle will bo very easily extinguished, in consequence of tbe currents of air that you hare created arou :i the object meeting near the fin mo. With Uxml or a sheet of cardboard of the width of the bottle in front of the candle sxtioctiou t'.ould l»e impossible.

Thte exjieriment bus a counterpart tlmt was cointnunicnted to the joumal quoted from by Mr. Ilarmaud, of Pari*. In this latter take two bottle* instead of one, and place them alongside of each other, no i* to leave a space of hulf an inch between them. Place the candle npiiosite this sjxioo, ami, preserving the same distance as l«fnie lietweeu your mouth and the candle, blow strongly against the flame. Not only will tho latter not be extinguished, Liit it will incline slightly toward you as if through the effect of miction. This phenomenon, which is unnlogou* to the preceding, is due to the fuct Unit as |Krtlon of the air cannot pons hcttv*cu tho Ijottles, itflows (iround their exterior mid returns to the ojierator.

Good and Itnd Temper.

Mr. Francis Gultmi.ih The Fortnightly Review, given nn analysis of statistics on good and bad temper. The statistics embraco descriptions of the tempera of 1.1181 persons Good und bad tempers again grouped by Mr, Gal ton Into five main classes—mild, docile, fretful, violent, masterful. Tho three former predominate In women, the two latter In men. The mimlier of person*, however, in the two groin* of good and bnd tcmier, is about equal one set of daUi making it fortyeight good to ilfty-two bad, ami another forty-seven to fifty-three. There likewise little difference U'tween tho sexes but what there is. I* in favor of the gentler sex, there lieing 45 per (rent, of bod teni|en» amongst them nml 55 (H.r cent, amongst men. Altogether SKI |H-I cent. were mild in temper,

more distant ones.

per cent, docile, per cent, fretful, 12 per cent, violent uml Bjicrcetit. masterful. It Is curious to note how well the tiumltcrof persons recorded as good, bad or neutral in tem|er coincides with what theoretical considerations demand. Of l,8fil iersons, 821 nrs di-wrilrt'd iv good, 34- as I Kid. and 705 as neutrul (!ii»t ot the Inst not lieing described at nil) that is, theso observers unconsciously 11 vt jrwjie» into four equal dosses—good tciuiH-red, bnd tempered, not ikviilodly either but

Willi

more of a tendency to good, and

similarly towards the bad. This shows that tho Hue of average tuuiper was placed where it IM long*, wil!i equal deviations In either dire ion. A'lother mark of reliability to lie found in the fact that near relatives are spoken of as bad tempered quite as unreservedly

Whether teni|er is hereditary is a question not ca-ily answered but when asked of couple-.il! which both parents are good tern p«.red, or Isith |nrents l»ad tempered, tho answer is emphatically in the afttrnjativo. Thirty per cent, of the children of the former are sjwken of as good tempered, and only to per cent, us bad while, with regard to tho children of tho bnd tempered, only 4 per cent, are good tempered and 25 per cent bad. Similarly, by a method necessarily somewhat arbitrary and not easily dcscrilied, Mr. Galton concludes that in ihe ancestry of grvxl tempered persons, three persons of good temper wllf occur to two of lad temper, and vice versa In the ancestry of a bail tempered person. Apart from direct heredity, education and circumstances evidently affect temper. A lui-ge class «»r such influences are about as favorable to good as to l*a 1 temper, and so tend to produce a variety of tempers. Auother class of Influences, typically illustrated in the case of a not unusually docile woman

becoming

be

very docilo «s the wifo of a

masterful husband, tends to divide persons (and Uils applies parUcularly to the offspring) Into distinct groups while tho effect of a prepotent ancestor may tie working to continue one kind of temper through many memlwrs of the family. Mr. Gallon finds that, in fourteen casta of forty-nine, these domestic and social influence* are too weak to overcome the secondary Influences in course of heredity, either by th«* p.epotent temjerof one member or tho general concurrence of temper in several. Finally, it may

noted, that, though so important and

readily olwei ved a trait, temper is not a uriMw consideration in marriage, men of each kind of temper about as frequently choosing wifo of one temper as of another.

lioman Amphitheatre*.

Amphitheatres were vast structures in ffae Roman empire, to amuse, or rather brataiuxi, the people, and qualify them for military life, by the exhibition of murderous contests between gladiators and wild lieasts. They were of an elliptical form and adapted for thousands of fpectatorx, to whom carnage waa made a pastime. They were invented by Julius Caesar und Curio, and Augustus caused them to lx! erected everywhere. In tho reign of Tilierhw one fell at FidentE, by which 50,000 persons were killed or wounded. Vespasian built the first of stone, the vast Coliseum of Rome, for 100,000 spectators. Its longest diameter is 015.5 feet and the other 510, covering flvo and one-half acres, and being 120 feet high. In the different amphitheatres of Rome, on the triumph of Trajan over the Dacinns, 11,000 animals were killed, and 1,000 gladiators fought during 123 days. The gladiators at first were malefactors, who fought for victory and life, or ^aptives and f-laves, who Were made to fight for freedom but soon many followed the profession of the gladiator for gold uud fime.

Portuguese Man of War.

In tho Gulf of Mexico there are communities of jelly fish so organized that they seem to constitute one animal. The whole has been given the name of Portuguese man of war. Tho community consists of a beautifully crested air sac, only a few inches in length, floating on the water, from which stream a number of long appendages. The different parts are so many different kinds of members of this animal community, all filling different functions. Some catch mid eat food, others produce buds, and others are the locomotive or swimming members, having tentacles in some cases thirty feet long.

Thirty years ago this famous dansccse, Maria Dolores Porris Gilliert, was attracting a great deal of attention. 8he was born in Limerick about 1820. When she was 36 years of age she went to Munich, where she captivated King Louis, of Bavaria, who gave her the title of Countess of Lansfeld, She guined great influence ut court and through her instrutncntuliry several ministers wero discarded but in 184S her enemies prevailed and she left Bavaria. She wis afterwards married twice, and liecunie a lecturer. She dkd in 18CI and was buried in Greenwood cemetery at Brooklyn.

Hence the bookseller, from occupying this station, Iwcame know as a stationer.

A TRUE STORY OF THREE CHILDREN AND THE LOST PAPA.

Aunt 8alty, ait Amusing Game of Engli«h Origin—Some of the Characteristic* of Guinea Pigs, with lirectio»s for Taking Care of Them.

Among tho numerous pets for Leys the guinea pig has always held its own and formed an imiwrtaut adjunct to the rabbitry. Guinea pigs are very timid by nature, and, like rabbits, prefer a darkened hutch. Burrowing uiulcr the hay or straw, they will squat or hours, sitting Closely together. The dinner hour marks an exciting period in these little creatures' lives. As their keeper arrives with the meal, a Ieafeiiiug chorus of squcalps is raised and the pigs'.rot about with their beads in the air. Cut no sooner is the pen door opened to throw iu the food than away tho little grunfcers rush to thoir hiding place in the straw.,

After a timo tticy timidly creep oat. to feed, sending a small femalo first to reconnoiter, the gent Ionian pig waiting until tho females have made quito certain that there is no danger. Then they set to work and greedily tear up the food,'with much petty quarreling and gnashing of teeth Over dainty bits. The meal over, the toilet occupies some little time, for guinea pigs area }arterii of clcauluiess.

A G0INKA PIG HUTCH.

The same requirements are observed in making hutches for guinea pigs that are given to those for rabbits. Golden Days recommends the one shown in tho cut, and describes it as follows: It is 5 feet long, 2 feet 6 inches wide and 2 feet bijh. A is the door of the sleeping a|»artinent, .vith a circular hole communicating with tho wire run. is the door of the living and feeding compartment, and has also a circular hole into the wire run. C, the wire fronted run in tho middle, with tho drawer for cleaning out purposes.

The above is a portable hutch, and in fine weather may be lifted out ou the grass and the drawer removed, so that the little pigs can enjoy run ou the grass.

laco Aprons.

Attractive aprons of lace are made of the skirt widths of Oriental and other fiouncings in black and white. The usual model is arranged with a yard of flouncing, cut off at the top to make it the desired length, then either hemmed or trimmed with lace edging ou the sides, and gothered over a riblion at the top, which ribbon forms the belt and strings. The piece of lace cut from the apron is made up in shirred pockets, which aru flushed with ribbon bows. *, ',

The Lo«t Papa.

The following story, related in Babyhood, is said to be an actual fact: Three little children rode down to the star Uon with paps, who was going "to town" for family supplies. Papa had always worn heavy whisker* and imwtncha. He visitnl the barber and came home with closely cropped locks and close trimmed mustache only. The loss of his luxuriant beard actually transformed him so that his "best friend" would have scarcely known him. The children, being accustomed to stranger*, chatted with liim on his return: and nothing strange was noticed until they began to worry lest papa was not coming home that night "Why, papa has come home," said mamma in wondering tones. "Why don't be come in the boovP "Why, be has been in. Dont you remanl«r be brought yoa some peanuts?" "That gentleman? TbatS company?"
