SCIENCE AND PROGRESS.

DEVOTED TO THE POPULAR SCIENCE NEWS OF THE TIMES.

Description of tbo W*lldng VWi Foand Id the WX«n of Brazil—A Carious Way of Separating an Apple Into Two Oddly 8biped Piece*.

The singular animal represented in tbe engraving (from La Nature) is tbe Maltbe VespertOlo, a flsh found in tbe waters of Brazil, hut a fish which, instead of swimming is only able to crawl or bop at the bottom of tbo water. Like tbe frogs. It is able to leave the water for a short time, and seek its food ttpon tbe land, where Ita peculiar powers of locomotion are very useful.

THE WALKING FIBS,,

Tbo engraving gives aside view of the Animal about one-third of the natural size, and also a view of tbe lower or ventral surface, showing how tbe fins have been modified into organs resembling tbe limbs of the higher animals, The head is yery large and is provided with a bony proboscis, at the end of which are tbe nasal orifices. All tbe upper part of the body is covered with bony plates, like those of the sturgeon, aud a. comparatively slender tail terminates in a thick, fleshy fin. A few projecting spines upon the back are all there is left of the usual dorsal fin.

The most remarkable modifications, however, arc those of the pectoral fins situated farthest forward on the body. Wo find them bore diminished in size, and terminated by an enlarged, fleshy mass, which shows nq trace of being webbed like an ordinary fin, and, in fact, transformed Into little feet, their original adaptation to swimming purposes having entirely disappeared. The ventral or posterior fins ore even more modified, and resemble more closely the hind logs of a frog than tho swimming members of an ordinary fish. The anal fin also, as shown in the view of tho fish from below, Instead of projecting outwardly, is flattened horizontally against the body of tho animal, and la thus ft further aid to locomotion.

Cartons Way of Cutting an Apple.

Of 121 samples of milk forty-throo wore not as require! by law. Adulteration of milk is nor.' practically couflned to tho largo cities, the general milk being excellent. Of 0U3 -article* of food nnnlywsd 808, or 48.04 per cent, were adulterated or below the legal standard* Of twenty-four samples of ground coffee examined eight were pure and sixteeen were adulterated. The adulterants were roasted and jgnnuul poos, boons, wheat and chicory.

Tbe first reference to shaving is found in Genesis, xll, 14. where it is set forth that Joseph, on being summoned before the king, »haved himself. There are several directions as to shaving in Leviticus, and tbe practice is alluded to in many other parts of Scripture. Egypt is the only country mentioned in the Bible where shaving was practiced. In all other countries such an act would have been Herodotus mentions that tho Kgypliaus allowed their bounds to grow when in mourning.

The quamfceup, which wag give® by the royal ykebt eqhadron in M*y, 1891, tor a race around the Isle of Wight, was won bjr the schooner yacht America, now owned by Cien.^Benjamin P. Bo tier, hot wtteee principal owner at that time was Commodore 3. CL Stevens, of tho New York Yacht cluh. Tbe America was built by George Steers, at Oreenpoist, and registered in custom house tonnage at 17tf tons. She carried no foretopmast and displayed no boom on her foresail. She took the lead in the great race of Friday, Aug. 23, 1851, and held, it against fourteen crack British yachts, completing tbe ran of eighty-one miles, despite the loss of her jibboom, eight minutes in advance of the cutter Aurora. The cup then came to this country, and has remained here ever since. Contests for it took place in 1870, 1871, 1870,1881, 1885 and 1887, the American yachts coming off victorious in every instance.

In 1870 the Cambria came over the seas and was beaten and beaten badly, the old America, Dauntless, Magic, Idler, Silvie, Madgle Phantom, Alice ana Halcyon all making better time, in 1871 the Livonia came out and bled her mettle with the Colombia, who beat her handsomely the first time by 27m. 10b., and the second by nearly 8 minutes. In the third trial she was defeated, owing to the loss of her flying jibstay and the breaking of her steering gear. A few days after the keel schooner Sappho defeated the Livonia twice, once by 80m. 31s., and again by 23m. 27s. Tbe next race was in 1876, when the Canadian

3"icht

Countess of Dufferin came down fPtry for the cup. The Madeleine defeated her in fine shape, first by 10m. 90s., and again by 37m. 14s. The Canadians made a second trial in 1881, with the center board sloop Atalanta. She was beaten both by tbe Mischief and Grade, the Mischiefs margin of safety being respectively 28m. 80s., and 38m. 54s.

In 1885 tho Genesta made the attempt and was beaten by the Puritan, of Boston first raoe, Sept 14, Puritan, 6h. 6m. 5s. Genesta, 0b. 22m. 24s. second race, Puritan, 5h. 8m. 14s. Genesta, 5h. 4m. 62a The Galatea entered for the cup in 1888 against the Mayflower, first race, Sept, 7, (Galatea time allowance of 42 seconds), Mayflower, 5h. 26m.( 41a. Galatea, 5h. 88m. 48a.: second race* Sept. 11, Mayflower, 6h. 40m. Galatea, 7h. 18m. 0b. English (or Scotch) blood being now op, the Thistle made in 1887 the desperate effort to regain the cop. The Volunteer was built to beat her and did: first race, Sept. 27, Volunteer, 4h. 53m. 18a. Thistle, 5h. 12m. 41^8., being allowed 5 .seconds and being beaten by 19 minutes ana 23% seconds, or a littlo over miles, in a course of 83 nautical miles. In the second race, Sept. 80, the Volunteer (Sh. 42m. 50)^8.) beat the Thistle (5h. 54m. 44s.) by 11 minutes and 47% seconds. Tho Red, White and Blue sailed from New York to London in the early summer of 1860 and was subsequently on exhibition ajfParis. She was ship rigged, 28 feet long, and carried three men.

Queer Epitaphs.

The Boston Transcript has been publishing some oddities in the way of epitaphs lately. Here area few specimens:

When I was Uke you. In years not a few, On tho ocean I toU'd. On the line I have broird, In Greenland I've shlver'd. Now from hardships dollver'd. Capsized by old Death, I surrendered my breath", And now I lie snug X" As a bug in a rug.

Invinciblo died April 21, 1779.

The following epitaph is copied from a village burying ground near An Sable Chasm, N. Y.:

Sally Thomas is here, and that's enough. Tbe candle is out, aim the snuff. ITer sours with Ood, you need not fear, And what remains ts Interred hero. Tho following quaint rhyme may bo found on nn ancient tombstone in Wrcntham:

Did provo to her a sudden death.

This was taken from a churchyard in Yorkshire, England, on a woman who sokl earthen ware:

Beneath this stone lies Catherine Gray, Changed from busy life to lifeless clay By errth and clay she got her pelf. And now sho is turned to clay herself.

Asparagus was originally a wild sea coast pi nt, and is a nativo of Grvat Britain. \tarine received its name in nectar, the principal drink of the gods. The tomato is a native of South Amor" n. and it takes its name from a Portuguese word. Greengage is called after tho Gage family, who first took it iuto England from a monastery in Paris. Parsley is said to have come front Egypt, and mythology tells us it was used to adorn the head of Hercules. Apples were originally brought from the east by tbe Romaic Tho crab apple is indigenous to Groat Britain.

THE GiUEAT SPHINX.

In 1817 the sand was cleared away in front down to the paws, and the tablet of the monarch Thothmes, which is set into its heart, was uncovered. But the sand drifted' over it again, and it was once more uncovered in 1809, at the opening of the Suez canal. But now M. Maspero,"of the Boulak mnseum, has undertaken to clear away the sand all aroond it and expose the gigantic figure to view as it was in the time of Pliny, .when travelers came from all parts to see it and lef£ their names in Greek and Latin scratched upon its paws. Thte great Sphinx is sculptured out of natural Jrck and measures 172 feet long by 63 feet high.

Origin of. Some Slang Wonts.

Golden Days says "pow-wow" comes from the Indians. The word "boss" comes from the low Dutch, and mctfcis master. "Kidnap'' comes from the nayping or stealing of a kid, gypsy or child. "Calaboose," a prison "picaroon," a pirate "palaver," to talk—are all Spanish. "A rum chap" is simply a gypsy lad it has no relation to the prodoct of tho still. "Dade," meaning a dandy, has no appreciable derivation. Like Topsy, it growed. "Pal" is a brother, and "conk," for nose, comes from the spouting fountain, thq concha of the Romans. &"•? "Domijohu" comes from the Arabic dama ghan, itself token from tityQ Persian glass making town of Damaghan.

Tho common slang word "mash" is from a beautiful gypsy word, mafada, which means "to charm by the eyes."

T§o gvd dictionary word "vamp" was at firsffasllmg word, being nibbing up of old hats and shoes. Now, from being a cobbler's word, it has become a classic, and -wo taik of revamping tho language.

A tinker's dam has fiothing to do with swearing. It is merely tho dam or stoppage, made of flour and water, with which the tinker stops the gap he is mending an til the tin or the pewter he is using has cooled.

Admiral Porter's Dog Bruco. All boys who like, the water will be interested in Bruce, once a favorite dog of Admiral David D. Porter, of our navy, says a writer in St. Nicholas, who tells the following story:

Admiral Porter had a little grandson, who lived noar a deep, rapid stream. This stream was crossed by a narrow plank. One day the little fellow attempted to cross this plank alone. There was no one near to warn him of danger or prevent him but tho dog. Realising the child's peril, Brace ran to him, and, catching hold of his dress, tried to pull him back. The youngster was determined to have his own way, and resented tbe dog's interference by beatingjpoor Bruce in the faco with a big stick he carried until the dog was forced by pain to relinquish his hold. The faithful animal then jumped into the water and swam slowly across the stream below the plank, evidently with the intention of saving tbe child should he happen to fall in.

PHYSIOLOGY AND HYGIENE^

Some About the Many Sodden D*stla Attefbnted to Heart Vfeilmk Professor Darling, of New York, in a paper on heart disease, which has for (me object the correction of the popular misapprehension that there is but one form of this disease and that Invariably fatal, states that the trouble is either more common cr else physicians of the past failed to recognise ft when it did exist.

After long experience and special study Dr. Darling concludes that cardiac disease is not necessarily fatal that many grave forms are entirely recovered'from that enlargement of the heart is not in itself a disease that with serious valvular disease developed in childhood, patients have been known to live to be aged men and women, and that, with a large majority of those supposed to be suffering from disease of tbe heart, that organ is hi reality perfectly sound and, if affected at all, is suffering secondarily to functional disturbances of organs remote from the heart, and which are capable of proper hygienic measures.

Dr. Darling divides heart troubles into two classes. Tbe first of these, valvular disease, is common to all periods of life. A person suffering from valvular disease is crippled, but, according to Dr. Darling, if the nutrition of the heart be good, by avoiding indiscretions and adopting an occupation that does not require great physical strain, by living on a level, as it were, life may be prolonged in comfort for many years.

Heart diseases of the second form aro, save in exceptional cases, the direct result of hereditary influences or of indiscretions in life, and by proper knowledge and precautions can, in the majority of cases, be avoided or, if already established, be checked in their progress.

The predisposing causes of this form of disease are long continued mental work, mid such indiscretions as the habitnal use of wine or exoess in the eating of food higl^y charged with nitrogen (such as beef, mutton and veniBon), which bring about conditions of the digestive organs, especially of the liver, that result in arterial changes which cause the heart to fail long before it should.

The author aisserts that the forms of heart disease which kill so suddenly, and which do not result from endocarditis, or tho presence of a specific poison in the blood, arise in nearly every instance directly from a pathological condition duo to certain derangements of tho liver.

Conceding liver disturbance to be tbe primary cause of premature wearing out of the heart, two questions arise: What mode of life will prevent these diseases? and, when they exist, how shall life be so regulated as to avoid sudden death? The answer to the first question is: A discreet life, temperance in all things, particularly the avoidance of the habitual use, even in moderation, of stimulating drinks, and the ingestion of too much meat In answer to the second are quoted Dr. George HarleyV roles: (t) Take exercise without fatigue, (2) nutrition with out stimulation and

,r -J/ SOCIAL ETIQUETTE.

A New Tleld W Uncfnlnrm for *!io Best Man at Coming Juno Wedding*. Though brides have all seasons for their own (always excepting May, the unlucky month, and Friday, the unlucky day), June, "tho month of roses," might almost be called also "the month of weddings," so popular is it as a time -for entering the matrimonial state. Nature, in fresh verdure and odorous blooms, smiles upon tbo ceremony and may bo expected to furnish pleasant days for the wedding journey. It is therefore timely to mention that, while of late it has been the custom in some circles to keep secret, eveii frbm tho most intimate friends, the 'destination of a brido and groom starting on their honeymoon, a still newer feature has been instituted recently by putting all such details in the hands of the-best man. This is an English fashion, and tbe idea is that the young couple should not be asked to concern themselves with such mundane details as tickets and trunk checks, and that tbe best mwn should raheve them of all care on the subject by telegraphing ahead for lodgings, wearing seats in tho train, looking after the luggage, and even deciding where tb?y or toga

Of coarse a discreet best man will by judicious and artful investigation discover front the young people their joint predilections in the matter of places, and will net make the mistake of sending than npon a sea voya \i tbe lady is not a good sailor, or of boo! :::tf them for the Yosemito valley when tlw ymng

wife has left tbe completion of her troasseau far Paris shopping. It is taken for granted

that the best man will familiarize himself with tbe tastes of his principals and tho general outline of their plans before be makes his but in some cases bo has planned quite independently of these, and tbe result has been a great snccew through the very novelty and unexpectedness of the trip. When the carriage corns* after tbe reception and tbe pair have taken their ssate, the best manhandstbe groom his tickets and checks and a time table with the place of his destination marked upon it, with the address of the hotel where rooms have been secured. This is tbe first knowledge the two have of the coarse and direction their journey.

In any ease the best man looks after the laggage and relieves tbe bridegroom of aO annoyance and care taking, and no one asks tbe young couple whither they are flitting, such a question being considered in bad ipfe

Not a week after that I needed some medicine of that kind, and went and bought those qame little pills."
