Numbered with «tfTxer recreations suggested by La Nature in tlio one of tli rings. Take three strips of paper and paste the ends together so an to form a ring. Then cut around the center, as shown by the dotted lines. The first strip wiJl separate into two equal sized separate rings the second will form one large ring while the third will be cut into two rings linked together.

A SCIENTIFIC RECREATION.

The explanation of this pretty and simple trick lies in tli preparation of tho original rings. No. 1 is made by joining together the two ends of a scrip of paper. In No. 2 the strip is twisted once, and in No. 3 twice, before joining tho ends. It is better to make rings much larger than those shown in the engraving, as the twisting of the paper is not then so evident. lteprortucliiB Hualcal Improvisations. (Separate selections of the two problems of registering musical improvisations and mechanically reproducing music have existed for Boino time, and now, it appears, M. Jules CarpeiitiiT has solved tho first of these by uniting both of them and thus giving them a hitherto unknown practical value. M. Carjientior, according to the Freiu-h journals litis succeeded in registering the musical improvisations played upon nny keyboard instrument, an I in reproducing them throu any keyboard instrument, whatever by nu nns of apparatus iliat arc admirable for their simplicity und perfect operation. M. Carpei11ier's device, as a whole, embraces three appnnitux: 1. The inelogiaph, n:i ap[Wiratus that electrically registens tho music played. 2 The perforator, a IruiihlaLuig apparatus that perforate* the paper band* of the melogi'upli and ivnders tliein suitableforthenielotro.uc reproducti u. 8.

Preservation of Water Colors. In a paper on ''The Fading of Water Colors," by Fnifrssor Hartley, it id in the British association, lie said: In order to pre•ervo water color drawings in wbicli delicate yellow and ml tints are largely used, they thou! I lie kept in a very miImIikhI light, preferably of a yellow tint, such ns is yielded by daylight passing through blinds of unbleached linen, Tho action of the violet rays is from two to three times as powerful ns that of the red and yellow, and the difference between tho action of diffused daylight sufficient to view pictures and of direct Buulight is at least forty times as great, and in summer probably -(00 times. Heneo a picture which would fade in ten years in sunlight might be preserved for something like 1,200 years in a fellow light. The acidity of drawing paper should be corrected by a wash of a dilute solution of borax and in no case ought any paste, gum or giue to be placed at the back of drawing for tlie purpose of mounting it.

The Cutaneous Punch.

Dr. li L. Keyvs has dv«crilcd iu Scientific American an instrument which he has invented anl which he colls tho cutaneous puncli.

TRB KKW PUNCH-

This instrument is about three or four Inches long, with a hole in tho end similiar to that In an orvlinary punch, and with a sharp cutting edge defining the hole. He uses it to remove the stained specks of skin in tho face due to gunpowder also for corns and other small growths. To remove the gunpowder specks, he presses tbe punch with a rotary motion through the entire thickness of the derma and removes each piece. His results were satisfactory. In a case of corns, he presses the punch down through the center of the growth, cutting oat all the sensitive part of each corn. His results were good. A number of sism, from one-sixtrenth of an Inch up, are required.

The Achromatte ln»—It Take* Two Glasses to Make an Object Glass. Tbo achromatic lens is so called because !t transmits light without dividing it iuto colors. The white ray of light is made up of a number of colored rays, which have different degrees of refrangibility. When the direct ray is refracted it divides itself into the colored rays, which deviate in various ways from the Ttralglit lide of the simple ray, and do not all locus at the same point, thus surrounding the Object viewed with a halo of various colors. It was for many years thought that this defect could not bo remedied, but the necessary improvement was invented about 1750, by John Dolland. He made a double lens of Bint and ground glass. These two kinds of glass differ as to their power of dispersing colors, so by using a convex Jens of crown glass, with a concave one of flint glaia, a perfectly colorless imugu was obtained. rt

A New Sovereignty.

The Congo Free State is now one of the recognized sovereigutiesof the world,constituted under international guarantees. Tl.e sovereign of tho Free State is King Leopold of Belgium, and there are under him four administrative divisions or provinces, at the head of which are native chiefs. The area of the state is 1,056.200 square miles, with a population of 27,000,000. Tho territory includes a strip on the north side of the Congo, except from Manyanga to the Likoua, claimed by France, and embraces tbe basin watered by tho Congo and its tributaries, extending to the Niger water shed on the north, to Uganda and Ujiji on the east, and to include Ulunda, Urula and Lake Bangweola on the south. The trade is to be free to all nations, and the navigation of tbe Congo is under the direction )f an international commission.

Natural Gas.

The striking of a natural gas well at Knowersville, near Albany, N. Y., brings the supply of this valuable fuel within measurable distance of a number cf the great industries situated along the Hudson riv r. Each succeeding tnouth brings new discoveries jf gas nearer to New York, and recalls the prediction of Mr. Henry Wurtz, tli3 eminent ihemist, made seventeen years ago, that mtural gas will be found in a belt following the outcrop of the great gas bearing beds (the principal of which is theMarcellus shale), at such a distance from their outcrops as will give a depth of about 400 feet to the bed. Professor Wurtz, as long ago as I860, urged the use of natural gas in the region of which the great gas well at West Bloomlield. Ontario county, N. Y., wus the center. {J

Parallax. m-'ft

The distances of the sun and the fixed stars are determined by ascertaining what is called their parallax. To detennine tho distanco of the sun the diameter of the earth is taken for a base line, and from its extremities imaginary lines are drawn to the sun's center. This gives two angles and aside of a triangle from which, by applying the principles of trigonometry, the other elements are ascertained, among which is the line of distance.

In tho case of the fixed stars the diameter of tho earth's orbit is taken for the base line, or nearly 184,000,000 miles, but their distance is so great that an idea of it cannot well be derived from figures. Light moving at the rate of 12,000,000 miles a minute would require three and a half yeors to reach tbe earth from tho nearest fixed star.

Primitive Cannon.

The first camion which came into use after the discovery of the explosive projierties of gunpowder during the fourteenth century were called bombards. They consisted of iron bars bound together with hoops of the same metal. The first camion bulls fired from these primitive weapons were rouud stonee. It is a mistake to suppose that br«ech loading guns were not tried till recen Ty. They were made when cannon fiit came into use, but were soon abandoned because no one knew liotv to make them strong enough. Among tho early cannon were Culverins, which were made four times the length of a* man, the early artillerists having conceived the idea that the longer the gun the further it would carry.

The word atheist is from the Greek

os." "without God," and signifies on© who denies the exisistenco of a God. Infidel is from the Latin "infidelis," "unfaithful," but with us meaning unbelieving. Atheism is not common nowadays, but agnosticism—belief that we do not know the nature of the controlling power of tho universe—is quite prevalent. Materialism, which indicates that matter contains within itself the power of assuming its different forms and motions, is considered by many to bo atheism, but it is not necessarily so, for the materialist may still point to the Power that gave matter its attributes.

.Salllug With and Across the Wind. Why is it that a boat sailing before the wind will not go as fast as one sailing with the same wind on the quarter? It is this: A boat sailing before the wind can go no faster than the wind that drives it A boat sailing with the wind on the quarter has the force of the wind continually pushing it. That is, when the boat acquires a speed equal to that of tbe wind the force ftill bears upou its sail? as one walking across a current of air will always feel it, but when walking with tha*' same velocity with tho current will feel no wind.

What Is Color?

White is usually defined as a combination of all colors, and black as the absence of color. Speaking accurately, an object is white when it throws back all tho rays of light, and black when it absorbs all. A blue object absorbs all rays except the blue, which it reflects, a red object reflects tbe red rays only, and so on through all the colors and their combinations.

It comprised about ten centuries, and ts also often called *Tbe Dark

YOUNG FOLKS' COLUMN.

SAD FATE OF LITTLE PEOPLE WHO WONT LEARN TO SPELL.'

Important Rules to Ui Observed la Baseball—An Est Way of Twisting and Doubling Twine Into a Strong

String. Among the needs of young as well as old folks a common one is that of a cord or line bigger and stronger than twine. Nearly every one knows bow to twist and double a bit of twine, by making one end fust and turning the other between the fingers nntfl the wholo is twisted so firmly that it will "kink," and then letting it double upon itself so as to form a cord of four strands.

A DOUBLE TWIST.

The following method recently described and illustrated iu St. Nicholas is a much easier way of accomplishing the same end. Take a piece of wood of a size that can be conveniently held in the hand and bore in it a hole several times tbe diameter of the twine to be twisted. If the twine Is not too large, a common wooden spool will do. Procure also a small stick six or eight inches long a lead pencil will serve. Double tbe string by tying tbe ends together. Make a loop in each end of the double line, one of these loops over a nail, pass the other loop through the wood or spool and then thrust the small stick through the loop. When the line is pulled taut the stick will be iu position across the bit of wood and can lie turned rapidly aud evenly around iu the direction that will also twist the strands of string more tightly.

Do not double this twisted line unless you have some one to help you. If you are alone it is better before beginning to twist at all to make a third loop in the middle of the doubled cord. Place this-middle loop over the nail and twist each half separately before letting the two twi.st upon eucli other. To keep the flrft half from kinking while twisting the second make it fast and taut to some fixed point or wind it tightly around anything tbut wi'l hold it. Each of the two halves should receive about the same number of turns to insure evenness in the final double. It is a good plan to Wretch tho first two lengths side by side after they are twisted and lush the corresponding ends together beore ajiowing them to take the final twist. .'••--•y What a Cavalryman Says About Homes.

Three Kales for Baseball.

Young baseball players, as a rule, tbroW tbe ball badly. W. J. Henderson tells Harper's Young Peop that there are three rules in regard to this part of the game which ought to be borne in mind: Throw the moment you get tbe boll, without wasting time in preliminary movements. Never throw the least bit more swiftly than is absolutely necessary. Learn to throw with more than one style of delivery. If you follow the first rule carefully you will soon learn not to break tbe second. Tbe ma rity of young players, in the is field especially, after stopping a grounder, go through two or three preliminary motions, such as stretching tbe band with tbe ball in it out in front before drawing it back, pointing at tbe base man with tbe other bond, or taking a step or two forward. All these things are unnecessary. If you have to stoop to pick up a grounder, straighten up tbe moment you have it, drawing back your arm as you do so, and send the ball to tbe base tbe very second you have risen up. Remember that tbe distance from home to first base is ju*t thirty yards, and that even a poor runner can do that in four and a half seconds. If, therefore, it takes tbe grounder owe second or a trifle more to reach you at short, and it requires about three-quarters at a second for tbe ball to travel from you to tbe first base man, you cannot afford to waste two seconds or more In preliminary movemesss before throwing the ball

PHYSIOLOGY AND HYGIENE.

Dr. Banting on Obesity^Crltleal Bonn la the Sick Koom- One Core tor Earache. Dr. Banting gives, in Popular Science Njiws, directions for the treatmcut, without meti'-'-ine, of obesity, of which the following are h. substance the principal points: People' inclined to corpulence must diminish the quantity of their food. They must also take tbe sort of food that will produco tbe least amount of fat, but will give streugth they should therefore take more of nitrogenous and less of carbonaceous food. Of beet, veal, mutton, lamb and pork, the first is the least and the last tbe most beat producing. Pork, therefore, should not be eaten. Wbite bread makes beat and fat rye is less hcuting oatmeal is good for strength aud is very suitable rice makes fat potatoes contain a great deal of starch and arc not to be eaten milk is too fattening fruits may be eaten coffee and tea cnu lio taken, but without milk or sugar. Water must be taken very sparingly—one glassful in twenty-four hours, if jpossible. Exercise must not be violent, as tbat produces an appetite yet, if it bo walking, if perspiration is produced to a slight degree, it is an advautage. Eight hours' sleep is enough as a rule, and seven will be geueraliy sufficient.

As there are more thin ieople iu the world than fat people. Dr. Banting adds a word of advioo to the former. They must sleep all they can: keep early hours for retiring lie down in the middle of the day drink a great deal of water eat heartily, especially of farinaceous food take plenty of excercise, but in moderation. The value of cheerfulness is emphasized. Follow the old adage, "Laugh and grow fat."

.Lemon Juice.

The lemon is a fruit mucb used in the sick room and, in the opiniou of Herald of Health, in many instances unwisely. Lemonade being a very refreshing und agreeable drink, is easily taken in excess by ]ei-sons suffering from fevers, a fact which should not be forgotten. In typhiod fever, for instance, its immoderate use would be attended with danger, inducing, ns it might, additional derangement in an already inflamed intestinal mucous membrane. In all inflammatory diseases of the stomach and bowels lemonade shculd only be given ufter the attending physician hps sanctioned its use. During tho past few years lemon juice has become quite popular in the management of diphtheria from the supposed action ou tbe membraneous deposit in the throat. There have also been attributed to the juice marked virtues in the functional derangement of the liver, commonly called "bilious disorders." Sonio persons so affected havo found benefit from its persistent use the symptoms of others, however, have been aggravated by it.

Purifying Water by Boiling. In some parts of Germany no water is given to children until it has been boiled to kill the germs of any disease present. Dr. M. Holbrook points out certain advantages and disadvantages of this practice among the poor, with whom food is not abundant, as follows: Tho boiled water deposits on tho kettle its lime, and this is a loss of so much mineral matter. It kills the germs, which is beneficial. If tho child is suitably fed uo harm is done, but. a positive beueflt but if not well fed it direct loss to the bones to lose the lime in the water. Pure fresh water from springs does not contain germs, and if it is used there is*no use in boiling it. Germs, however, may develop in standing water ULaJew^boura' ejcposure to the.Hir.

'The Ice Bag in Sea SicknoHs. In a recent letter to a daily paper, says Science, correspondent states that he has made twenty-six trips across tbe Atlantic, aud lias iu every instaucer except the last, suffered very much from sea sickness. On his last trip be had with him a rubber bag, twelve inches long aud four inches wide, tho mouth of which was closed by an iron clamp. This ho filled with small pieces of ice and applied to the spine at the base of tbe brain from half to three-quarters of an hour every morning. It had a most soothing effect, and he enjoyed every hour and every meal.

Xhe Hours of Fate.

According to Dr. Richltalson the animal vital processes are at 1 heir lowest ebb in the period between midnight und 6 o'clock in the morning. It is at these times that those who ore enfeebled from any cause most frequently die. Physicians often consider theso hours as critical, and forewarn anxious friends in respcct to them. From time immemorial those who have been accustomed to wait and attend on tbe sick have noted tho hours most anxiously, so tbat they havo beeu called by our old writers "the hours of fute." i- %$•*

A Cure for Earache.

Money matters are always a delicate subject between friends. But, suggests tbe authority already referred to, though we can seldom remunerate them for tbe trouble tbey take for us in dollars and cents, yet sometimes there will be ways in which it may be done. It is easy to givo presents to children, and although it is harder to give anything to tbo mother, yet by exercising a little tact, you may be able to do it. She cannot refine a pretty piece of fancy work that you have twfU during your visit, and books and magazines can usually be safely offered.

BERLIN'S FAMOUS STREET.

"Uoter den Linden" Does Not Deserve Its Keputation—.Berlin's Big Crowd. The Baedeker population of Berlin has grown to colossal proportions this summer. The beautiful weather with which north Germany has been favored of late seems to have had an unusual attractive power upon tho traveling public. Half the peoplfi one meets upon tbe thoroughfares are busily eugoged reading their red covered books. One look distinguishes them all when upon the lioulevard—providing they take time from iedeker for individual impressions—a look of disappointment at the Linden. Unter den ndeu is, I fancy, the most famous street in

world, not excepting the prominent oues of Paris or London, but it does not deserve its reputation. The trees are scraggy, short und uneven—here a live, there a dead one, uud over there one in the last stage of consumption. "But," says the Berlinor, "you should have seen them years ago, before the era of gas and electricity." Perhaps but the stunted dwarfs of today do little honor to the giants of yesterday the street is broad, and this is its only pleasing feature.

On each side, bordering the pavements, are the ashphalt roads for tho vehicles next these, on either side, are two for horseback riders, and between these is the famous uliec, flanked by the Linden. This is the thoroughfare almost exclusively of the street urchins. Dirty benches, distasteful in form and color, are filled by the Berlin proletariat, who suu themselves from morning till night The houses are anything but palatial, with few exceptions The "Linden" is not more than a quarter of a mile long. Oarlyle, when visiting Berlin years ago, wrote of the bouses liordering the boulevard as "too squatty/' The same is true to-day. The entire stretch from the Prillwitz mansion to tho emijeror's ilnco contains hardly a building of pretentious architecture. Most of them, even including tbo Russian embassy and the Imil ings of the departments of war and Iho interior, are such as might grace city of 100,000 inhabitants, but not a metropolitan capital. Tho famous Restaurant L:tng ot, Berlin's Deluionico, wouldn't compare with half a dozen in New York. The Academy of Art, lieur the palace of tlu kaiser. a smoked stone building whose ouo half used as a soldiers' barracks, and has little to indicate tbe high purpose which it serves.

As for the imperial residence behind] the celebrated bronso statue of Frederick the Great, I do not believe there is on Fifth avenue a bouse so purely non-ornanicutnl. Just at this time tbe place in front of tho historical window is crowded daily at 1 o'clock, when his majesty, true to his custom, shows himself to his people. It is often impossible to pass at that hour. All tbe troops return then, saluting their aged commander, and replacing the regimental standards which are always kopt in the room near the emperor where ho loves to look at them. Nowhere else in all Berlin is a crowd allowed to gather.—Berlin Cor. New York Tribune.

Bad Effects of City I.lfe.

A competitive examination -of candidate! for appointment as midshipmen in the Annapolis naval acaueiny from tbo Seventh Now York congressional district, which is made up of threo assembly districts of this city, wns held the other duv, at which twelve lads between 14 and 18 years of ngo appeared. Not a single one of the dozen passed the physical examination, four being rejected for heart troubles and mulformation of the t. three for defective eyesight, one for failure to meet tbe roquirementt wis lost atuce, aud lie other four for various other bo lily defects.

This incident is a remarkable confirmation in America of a law as to tbe bad effects of city life, which is laid down in an interesting ppju^r recently published by J. Milner Fotber^ill, M.D., nr. eminent London physician, whe reasons from English experience. "Tin effect of town lift," says Dr. Fothergill, "is to produce a distinct retrogression to a smaller, darker, precocious race of less potentialities than tbe rustic population." As the town race grows in precocity, it loses in vitality, and either the women cease to bear children or their offspring succumb to the diseases of childhood. For these reasons medical authorities of high standing say that it is well nigh impossible to find a true Cockney of the fourth generation, and Dr. Fothergill qnotes another physician as informing him that of 800 inquiries mude at the Loudon hospital only four resulted ill diseoveriug genuine Cockneys of the fourth generation. It would bean interesting study to trace the family history of the New York youths who were rejected tho other day.—N. Y. Post..'nf'- &.•-
