SCIENCE AND PROGRESS.

8CIENTIFIC RECREATIONS AND POPULAR SUBJECTS CONSIDERED. ,,

The Magic Basket Trick, Common with Xatt Indian Ja^gleri, Is Shown to Be Remarkably Simple One by Robert

Hoadin.

A common trick with East Indian jugglers is to placo a child in a basket and strap the cover firmly down. A sharp sword is then passed through the sides of the basket arid is palled out dripping with blood. After the spectators have been duly horrified at the apparently atrocious murder, the basket is opened and shown to be empty, while the child makes bis appearance at a little distance, alive and unhurt. The trick, as performed by the skillful orientals, is a very surprising one, but the explanation, as given by Robert Houdin and published in La Nature, is remarkably simple.

THE MAGIC BASKET.

As might be supposed, the secret of the trick lies in tho construction of the basket, which is represented in the engraving, Fig. 1 showing it as it appears when tho chC Is first placed in it, and Fig. 2 showing it

on its side and opened so that the spectators may see that it is empty, the double sides, A, C, B, swinging outwardly and allowing the child to escapo into the flowing robos of the juggler, to emorgo from thence whilo tho attention of tho audience is distracted by the ag of the sword through tho sides of tho tet and into a spongo filled with some red colored substitute for blood.

A similar basket or box can bo easily constructed, and when skillfully handled can be used to produce some surprising illusions. The movablo sides, A and C, are fastened firmly together and turn on a hinge at C. In tho illustration the end of tho basket nearest the spectator is omitted, to show more fully tho interior construction.

The Peculiar Influence of Antipyrin. The now coal tar product called antipyrin, discovered by a German chemist, is a compound whoso remarkable qualities have brought it into use tho world over. It is claimed that it has the power of reducing the temperature of tho body by several degrees, and so is of vast utility in treating fevers and feverish stages of many diseases. It does its work by depressing the action of the heart, and generally when employed by physicians it is accompanied with digitalis to noutralizo its influence in tho latter regard. Women uso it partly because it is a sedative and partly because it makes tho complexion beautifully clear and pale by keeping tho blood away from tho surface of the body. Tho habit, like all others, grows upon tho person who practices It. It does harm, however, from the first With women who are weak it increases their weakness with those having a predisposition towards heart disease of any sort, it increases the tendency to a terriblo extent. Besides these results, antipyrin exerts a peculiar infiuenco upon the blood, which is not yet thoroughly understood by the faculty. It seems to undergo some decomposition or breaking down when nbsorbed by tho system, developing unknown compounds, which cither attack tho blood itself or else powerfully influence tho nerves and ganglia, which control tho vital functions.

Klaatlo Traces for Draft Horses. Six years ago tho directors of tho Eastern railway of Franco be^an to harness all th) horses employed in shifting froight cars at their Paris station with traces mado of chains having a strong spiral spring inserted in them. A largo number of horses is employed iu this service at the station, and the effect of tho change has been very satisfactory. It is claimed that a considoriiblo gain 1ms boon mado in tho durability of tho harness and tho regularity of tho work through the diminution of the number of chains broken in tho sorviee, whilo tho horses have done their work bettor and with less fatigue. These elastic traces are now adopted in all jwrtions of tho vast network of lines under the control of tho company referral to.

Tho Flying Pendnlnm.

In the accompanying illustration is represented a model of a pendulum of recent invention, which has been applied to clocks with some success. It is described as follows by Scientific American:

1-tYtSO PKJrOCLCM.

Two cross bars are supported from the base by two wire*. In the lower cross bar and in the base is journakd a wire having a hook at the upper end. This vertical wire carries a curved arm, to which "is attached a thread having at its extremity it small weight, such «s a button. The propelling power in this model consists of an elastic rubber band placed on the hook ou the vertical rod, and received in a hook on the little crank in tho upper bar. The rubber band is t^ Jed by turning the crank, and the crank is pn-

vented from retrograde movement by the wire catch at the side of the bar. As the arm is carried around by the power stored iu the rubber band, tho weight on the thread is thrown outward by centrifugal force. When it reaches ona of the side rods, it wraj* the thread aevenU times around the rod. thus holding the arm until the thread t* unwound by the action of the weight, when the ana describes another half rerohitfoo tud Uv operation just desrrib.xl is repeated.

Mental Overwork.

Tho English Anthropological society has been culling from reports of schoolmasters' observations on the symptoms of mental fatigue. The observations reveal that wearineeB of mind reveals itself under the aspects cf irritability and incapacity. Children at school showed such signs of mental irritability as sleeplessness and nervous laughter, while those who were fatigued could neither sleep nor get up their task work. The flagging will showed itself by lolling, yawning and a languid manner. Headache also resulted from overstrain in study, when combined with defective ventilation. The London Lancet, commenting on these observations, says that mental and bodily overwork is the most general and the least regarded form of illness in this age. Its treatment requires that due attention be paid to the two great essentials of timely rest and wholesome diet. A man, says the Lancet, may work on a liberal scale, provided he will interrupt its continuity by timely and adequate intervals of rest and will eat heartily of plain food. Bo long as appetite and sleep are unimpaired there is little danger of overwork, but the failure of either is nature's warning signal that the strain must be relieved.

Suicides./.

The statistics of suicides show that the number of them does not greatly increase year by year. In New York, from 1870 to 18S4, suicides did not increase as rapidly as the population. They averaged the first three years of this period of fifteen years, 118, in the next three years (covering '73, '74 and '75), 155 in the next three years 140, and in the next three years but 145, But in the last three years, *82, '83 and '84, all hard years, suicides rose to 196 but even this is not GO per cent, greater than the hard years, '78, 74 and '75, although population has risen to this extent.

Mrs. Humphrey Ward,

Before Mrs. Ward was married her name was Mary Augusta Arnold. She is the eldest daughter of Thomas Arnold, M. A., of University college, and fellow of the Royal university of Ireland. She is granddaughter of Dr. Arnold Rugby and niece of the late Matthew Arnold. She was born in Hobart, the chief town of Tasmania, 120 miles southeast of Australia. In 1873 die was married to Thomas Humphrey Ward, fellow of Brasenose college, Oxford. Her home is 61 Russell square, London.

The Longest River.

If wo toko the Mississippi and Missouri together thoy probably form tho longest river in the world. The Amazon by naxno is only a thousand miles long. It then Iweomes the Solomoens. Taking its longest waterway, it is not so long as tho Mississippi-Missouri, but longer than what we call the Mississippi. Tho Nilo Li supposed to have the longest waterway of any rivor in tho w6rld, but we must wait a little before accepting all tho surmises concerning its

Twentieth Century Regius.

The Twentieth century begins tho instant after midnight, Dec. 31, 1900. The reason is this: Tho First century didn't end with thj year 95), but with tho year 100, the Second with tho year 000, the Nineteenth with the year 1900—just as your first hundred dollars ends with number 100, and your second begins with 101 and aids with 200. Some people absolutely wont see this.

Marriage Contract.

Marriage in itself is a double contract: (1) between the man and woman (2) between them and tho state. Thoy have absolute power over their own contract They may live together or separately. But over the contract between themselves and the state they have no control. They cannot annul it without the consent of the state given by its courts.

Xtanlsh Journals in America. In tho United States several Danish newspapers are published, among which may be mentioned The Dannevirke, Hie Nordvesten and The Nordiske Blade. Owing to the large number of Danes residing in tho large cities, and throughout the west and northwest, all of these api to enjoy a large patronage and to be do^ug a paying business.

MARIA AND WILIJAK.

"You see how Maria sticks up her lffligj ears, wad looks as bright and knowing as can be. But if you should get on her back or harness her up, down they would go, and she would look just as meek and pretend she was too weak to go, only just walk slow. "Donkeys are great humbugs but they are knowing. And they are strong, too. They can draw big loads. "But their bray is awful. Hee-haw I heehaw! is the way they go. My Uncle John says it sounds just like scraping a lot of old brass kettles together. "It's great fun to ride Maria backwards, with your back to her head. Then she sticks up her ears and goes! She likes the fun, I guess. "In somo countries they dress up their donkeys with little tinkling bolls and bits of

silver

on tbeir bridles, and blue and scarlet ribbons. "I think Maria would like this."

I am visited with them myself, and I dare say that you aro also. Now, then, for my prescriptions.

complexion and the care of the skin, a writer on the subject explains that the skin of the face wrinkles exactly for thesamo reason and by the same mechanism that the skin of an apple wrinkles. The pulp of the fruit under the «Hn shrinks and contracts as the jtiices dry np consequently the skin, which was once tight and smooth, now being too large for the contents, puckers and lies in folds. Similarly, when the subcutaneous fat of the cheeks and brow, which in youth is abundant —especially under the eyes and at tho corners of the mouth—begins to be absorbed and to disappear, the cuticle, which so long as this fat lasted remained smooth and even, begins to shrivel and fall into lines because it is no longer exactly fitted to the lining which was formerly beneath it.

In many cases the formation of wrinkles may be prevented and the skin of the face kept smooth to an advanced age by the following mechanical treatment: Having slightly oiled the fingers, the skin of the face is to be gently but firmly rubbed in a direction contrary to that the wrinkles threaten to take—L e., vertically if the lines are forming horizontally vice versa. This should be done at least once daily, and the operation continued for fully five minutes at a time. The hands may be changed in case of fatigue, the fingers being twice or thrice freshly oiled, and the pressure used should be even, firm and gentle.

Since the above treatment was advocated, a new and valuable toilet adjunct for the treatment of crows' feet and wrinkles has been discovered in wool fat, according to the authority already quoted, who describes it as follows: "This remarkable body is the actual gloss or fatty matter of the hair and skin. Science has at last succeeded in isolating this body in a state of great purity from the fibers of the sheep's wool. Its value consists in tho fact that both the skin and hair will greedily absorb this body, whereas all ordinary oils and fats are not absorbed, but lie on the surface in a greasy film. It will at once be seen that we have here the means of restoring a full, smooth and rounded outline of the skin by replenishing the wasted subcutaneous fatty tissue. I do not mean to say that all wrinkles will now be things of the past, but I think that by means of this wool fat we have made a remarkable advance in our power of preventing and removing them. "I find a cold cream prepared from this wool fat and cucumber juice to be most readily absorbed by the skin, and I consider this cream to bo invaluable for the removal of crows' feet and incipient wrinkles, and for their prevention."

One Thing and Another. 1

Baths aro an active remedial agency, and for that reason can easily be misapplied. They should never be given in serious illness without the sanction of the doctor in charge of the case.

The human frame should, undoubtedly, be clothed in woolen garments, says Health, for wool Is a bad conductor of heat Enveloped in flannel the body maintains a normal temperature, which is of the greatest importance.

It is claimed that' the germ which causes diphtheria has been discovered by two physicians who are assistants of the famous Professor Pasteur. No preventive or cure is as yet announced.
