The Sensitive Flame OWited by Dr. Lc Conte and Developed by Tyndall, Exhibits Some of the Corioa* Effect* at

Routul—How to Produco It.

For tho production of a seuativo flame it is neccssary that the gas bo under a pressure -equal to that of a column of water six or eight incbe* hljjh. The common method of eecuring ho required pressure is to tako the gw from a cylinder of compressed illuminating gas, Another method is to tako the gas from a weighted gas bag, and rtill another is to fill .a sheet metal tank with gas and displacoi^tvlth water.-

NO. I—BUHNER FOR SENSITIVE FLAME. The burner is shown in Figs. 1, 2 and 3 of tho first cut. It consists of a small tip inserted In tho end of it suitable tube. Tho burner is supported in the manner shown, or other convenient way, and gas under a suitable pressure flows through and is ignited. Tho flame will le tall and slender, as shown in Fig. I. By regulatiuj the gas pressure an adjustment will bo ranched at which the flanio will IK on tho verge of flaring. When the flamo is at the point of flaring it is extremely sensitive to certain sounds, particularly those of high pitch. A shrill whistle or or a hiss will cause it to fliu'o. Tho rattle of a bunch of keys will produce tho same result. It will respond to every tick of a watch held near it.

MO. S—-HKNfUTIVS KI.AME WITHOUT EXTRA GAS PRESSURE. Another sensitive flame, which requires no extra gap and is moro readily controlled than tho late jot, is shown in tho second cut. Iu tho production of this flame a pin holo burner is employed. Two incln* above tho burner is supported apiece of Jfci-mesh wire gauze, •bout six inches square. The gas is turned on and lit above tho wire gause. It burns in a conical ilame, which is yellow at tho top and blue at tho bos.\ When tho gas pressure is stro:ig, tho flamo roars continuously. When the gas Is tnrnod olT, so as to stop tho roaring altogether, the flamo bums steadily and exhibits no moro sensitiveness than an ordinary flame. By turning on tho gas slowly and steadily, a critical point will be reached at which almost any noise will cause it to roar and become non-luminous. Any degree of sensitiveuess may be attained by careful adjustment of tho gas supply. A quiet room Is required for this experiment. Tho rustlo of clothes, tho ticking of a clock, a whl*|)er, a snap of Uu linger, tho dropping of a pencil, or in fact almost any noise, will cause It to drop, becomo non-luminous and mar. It dances perfect time to a tuno whistled staccato and not too rapidly, concludes Scientific American, from which tho cuts hero shown are reprinted.

F«nr When In High riaees. Among tho many curious psychical experiences that are now attracting attention, tho one to which the term "acrophobia" has been applied has many points of interest. It refers to an exaggerated condition of fear when In high places. Dr. Verga has recently described the phenomena in his 'vwn case. Though by nature not at all ti iid, all his courage leaves him when above ground. He has palpitations in mounting a step ladder finds it extremely unpleasant to ride on top of a coach, or even "to look out of a first story window. His idiosyncrasy forbids him to use an elovator, and tho mere thought of thoso who have cast thomsolvos down from high places causes tingling all over his person. Tho thought of the earth spinning through space is enough to cause discomfort. Qe finds this fear growing upon him as sight and hearing become less acute, and what walking in high places was formerly possible for him is getting more and more difficult. A greater or less degree of this fear is undoubtedly quite common. A very intense form of it seems perfectly consistent with normal functions.

Self Developing photographic Piute*. Self developing photogr. rhic dry plates are the latest novelty, In ich the chemicals used In developing are applied in the solid form to tho back of plate. After the exposure it is only oco. .try to immerse the plato ia tray of water, .when tho developing

KUSS will dissolve &od form a bath all ready tor usa The coavcnieoce of this method to traveler* and photographic amateurs away from their bam of supplies will undoubtedly be very great.

THE CURIOSITY SHOP. Historical Affidavit—Account of Sea Fight in Bo*t«i Harbor. The Boston Transcript publishes the followtsg.in its "Notes and Queries:"

Many residents of Boston will remember Rftnjnmtfi TYefetben, the old sailor, who far many years told nlrH*ntt/ia about our streets. Be most have lived well on to 90 years of age. One day he into the offico of the secretary of state, at the state house, where 1 was employed, and I took the opportunity of drawing up a statement from the answers to my questions, which I read to him, and which be afterward* signed. It is given herewith.

DAVID PVLSUTKB.

I, Benjamin Ttefetben, of Boston, born on New Castle Island, Portsmouth, N. II., Jan. 18, 1790. have resided ia BantM tiivcr 1828. to the present thne. la the year 1812.1 shipped to serve on board the frigate Chesapeake, tbesi lying in Nan casket Reads, In the haruor of Boston went on board Doc. 5i. 1812. The Chesapeake was at that time commanded by Samuel Evans Shipped with five others in Portsmouth by Li. J:. Budd, and came immediately to Boston The last of Hay. 1818, the frigate Shannon, commamt-d by Capt. Broke, made Iter appearance off tJosioii harbor. On the 1st day,of June the Chesapeake, commanded by t5apu James Lawrence, who succeeded Capt Evans, got under weigh and proceeded down the harbor under full sail to mcut the Shannon, at that time standing in The Shannon very soon tacked and stood off. When in the offing near Marblebead, between si and 3 o'clock p. m., as near as I can recollect, the action commenced The Chesapeake had the weather gage and engaged the Shaauoa, the guns on tiio larboard side bearing upon the starboard Bide of the Shannon. We were so near that I cannot say which flred the first gun the firing was near together. As we pa.-^ the Shannon we fired two broadsides. 1 be!-:i jed to the third gun on the spar deck, and while look IIIR to see the effect of the shot while firtng, a cannon ball from the Shannon passed over my head and took off the head of John White, our sailing master. The engagement lasted not more than three-quarters of an hour. The Shannon ut the close of the engagement was in a sinking condition, having three and a half feet of water in her hold and I always believed that those who boarded the Ch ^.ipeake jumped on board tosavetheir lives. I aft-."•wuvd*. counted seven plugs in the starboard cids «nc Shunnoa.

When we were sailing past tho Boston lights to meet the Shannon, while I was taking dinner with others between tho guns, Capt Lawrence came along and, making a rstop, looked at us earnestly, and said, "Bear a hand, boys, and get your dinner you'll have blood for supper."

The First Wooden Clock.

E. A. Fen writes in Tho Alligan (Mich.) Journal: About tho year 1800 thero lived a sort of indolent, thriftless, unpromising young raau by the name of Eli Terry. His birth place was tho samo as mine, Plymouth, Conn. He sought tho hand and heart, of a Miss Warner, and was bitterly opposed by her friends on account of his inability to supor a

Eli had no visible moans of support, but spent bis time sitting on a stump or block whittling out a circlo he struck with an old compass or sawing of? bits of wood from some dead trees, and thus, day after day, his time was spent, und tho general opiniou was he was crazy. Waut pressed so hard iu the home that the wife, by urgent entreaty of her friends, had about made up Iter mind to return to her parents' home, when the fruits of Eli's whittling and sawing materialized in tho iirst wooden clock ever made in America, and, I believe, in any country. It was readily sold to a neighbor for $30 and paid for in pork, flour, potatoes, other family necessities and littlo money, with which he bought, tools to facilitate his work in further prosecution of clock making. Another and another was made that sold readily as soon as completed. The foot la tho und small circular saws were added, then men were employed, clocks more rapidly mado and eagerly sought, after, and Eli Terry began toaccumulate. In the meantime ho had made application for letters patent upon his clock, and about 1802 or 1803 built small shop and commenced improving on his clock and construction of machinery ami tools, and tho foundation for a vast fortune was made, which materialised in after yc*ars. Notwithstanding his unltounded benevolence, ho bocamo very rich. He died about 184.5, at tho advanced age of 85 years.

Union acta.

Tho question has been asked have the United States and? Great Britain' ensigns cr,lied union jacks!

Tho United States has not Great Britain has a union jack. Tho union jack bears on a hlue ground tho red cross of St. George for England, tho whitn diagonal cross of St. Andrew tor Scotland, nnd tho rod diagonal cross of St Patrick for Ireland. Tho original union jack was adopted in UiOfi, three years after James VI, of Scotland, became king of England, and consisted of the crosses of St George and St Andrew. The name jack is said to be a corruption of tho word Jacobus, Jaques, or James. The flag was adopted 101 years before the two kingdoms were united during that timo they were separate kingdoms, with, •s it happened, one ruler. In 1801, when Ireland was "taken into the union," the cross of St Patrick was added. Our jack tears thirtyeight or forty-twostars, typical of our states, and may properly bo called a union jack, only it isn't so called and any "union jack** casually mentioned must be understood to moan a British ensign.

Depot.

"Depot* is a French word but it does not "speak for itself." As used by the French it has a great.variety of meanings,but no one of them ha* anything whatever to do with railroads so that, the American use of tho word in this connection is a purely arbitrary one, leased on nothing (much like that of "parquet" or "parquette," as applied to theatres). On the other hand, the won! "station" is used indiscriminately In this country, as well as in Great Britain, and even occasionally on tho continent, to signify either a "terminus" or a "way station," and is a correct terra for either Usage, however, makes "depot" correct in America. _______ "CoektalL"

The following has been given as the origin of the word "cocktail": tn a note to Cooper's "Spv." as we recollect, it is said that a buxom widow who kept a tavern at ant named Westchester town used to provide "f acers" for the young French officers that would make them fed as "light as a ixvk's tail." Iu time the compound which prudmri the effect received the name of "eocktau The date of this important occurrence feat given.

The years 400, 800, 1300, as well as the intervening centarial years, were loap years it was Pope Gregory XIII, who, in 1583, reformed the calendar so that only the centarial years, divisible without a rcmainder by four, should be leap years. A. D. 1600 was, and 2000 will be, a leap year. The months had respectively, these number of days: SK 90,31, 90, 31, SO, 31, 30, 80, 30, 30, 31, making a total of 865 days in the year.

PHYSIOLOGY AND HYGIENE.

Sir Morell Mackenzie** Remedy for Tonailiti*—A Novel Accident. In a lecture at tho Edinburgh Eye, Ear and Throat hospital on acute and chronic tonsilitis. Sir Morell Mackenzie lately expressed Ids preference for guiacum as a remedy at tho outset. The guiacum is made into lozenges containing about three grains each. Nine cases out of ten rapidly recover when one of these lozenges is given every two hours at the commencement of the attack of tonsilitis. Sir florell sometimes also applies locally a little bismuth and opium, or an eighth of a grain of morphia with a quarter "f a grain of starch, because the problem is not only to cure tho patient but to keep him comfortable until he is cured.

Sometimes tho guiacum causes some diarrhea, but this is rather &u advantage, and the morphia usually soon checks it as well as aHaystho slight slanging sensation produced by the guiacum upon the throat He uses this treatment in acute inflammations of any part of the back of the throat and after an experience of fully twenty years pronounces it really specific.

Uiting the Fin cr Nails.

A novel accident resulting from a habit of very common prevalence among nervous {coplo, is descriled by Dr. J. Tuthill, of Chicago. A young lady presented herself at iny offico, complaining of a coustant irritation in her throat Two weeks previously she had been taken with a severe "sore thmit," which was treated by a neighboring physician. Under Lis care, she says, the inflammation quickly subsided, but there still remained a sensation of irritation. Examination revealed a small fleshy looking object, about the size of a kernel of wheat, adherent to tho tissues posterior to the left tonsil, by one end.

The other parts of tho throat were,uorznaL The little mass could, not lie detached by a cotton covered probe, but by tho uso Of forceps it was easily removed, and on esniliquation proved to be a pieceof finger nail, which had becomo covered by a checsv deposit A broken picce of the nail was also removed from under the mucous membrane at the same spot by a sharp pointed probe. The JMItient then confessed to the habit of biting hor finger nails, and, moreover, could remember that a day or two previous to tho onset of her throat trouble a piece of nail which sho had bitteu off had become lost in her mouth, but after it had caused a fit of coughing sho had forgotten about it until reminded by my discovery.

Tho Itest Tim© to Bathe.

The best time to bathe, according to London Lancet, is just l»efore going to bed, as any danger of catching cold is thus avoided, and the complexion is improved by keeping warm for several hours after leaving tho bath. A couple of pounds of bran put into a thin bag and then in tho bath tub is excellent for softening the skiu. It should bo left to soak in a small quantity of water several hours before lieing used. Tho internal aids to a clear complexion aro most of them woll known. The old fashioned remedy of sulphur and molasses is considered among the best Charcoal powdered and taken with water is said to bo excellent, but it is most difficult to take. A strictly vegetable and fruit diet is 1'yUowed by many for one or two wieks, iJ

Yolk of Kffc Makes the Hair Grow. Experienco has couvinced a Scientific American correspondent that it is best to keep all oils and grease from the hair. Ho says: Don't let barbers oil it I find wetting with water best. At least once a week rub tho yolk of an egg, or half of it, well into ho hair and scalp, and rinse off thoroughly with tepid water. It will promote growth r.iul color, probably largely due to the sulphur in ,the egg. This course has started a new growth of hair with me, not very thick, but better than none at all.

No doubt this same shyness has been the secret of what has been called rudeness in great men. No doubt Napoleon suffered horribly from embarrassment in society.

There are certain parties which to a shy man are eternal. They never eud. Tbcy arc like the old fashioned ideas of a state of torment- they grow momentarily hotter and more stifling.

"And this humiliation, toor be asks, as she offer* to show him some photographs.

Women are seldom troubled with shyness at the age at which men suffer most Perhaps that and the talent for writing letters and a fluency In talking are nature's compensation* for making them the weaker vessel.

the Threshing Machines then in use were almost wholly of the class known as the Endless Apron style. Then it was that Nichols & Shepard, of Battle Creek, Mich. .invented and began to develop an entirely new and novel style of Grain Thresher and Separator, which they very appropriately named the "VibratorJ*

It was a revolution in Threshing Machines, and from a small beginning of five machines ia 1858 they soon reached a product of x,ooo yearly.

Their Vibrator drove the Endless Apron" machine out of market, and all other makers copied it as closely as they dared. Today all Threshing Machines of any reputation or merit use the principles of the old Vibrator. Nichols & Shepard have continued in the business without change of name, location, or management and during the past three years have brought out and developed another new Threshing Machine for grain and seeds, as superior to all existing machines as their former was to the Endless Apron.' They name this new and improved Thresher

and predict as great a revolution in the trade, and as complete success over all rivals as they had thirty-one years ago.

We may escape many a fatal shaft by keeping ourselves well fortified with pure blood and a groperly nourished frame."—[Civil Service
