A Hibernating FUh Found In AMaa Bivcn, Vhleb Besemblee ac Kel ud gMini to Occupy mm Intermediate Place

Between a Flsh and a Frog. Professor Heckel, of the Paris Museum of Natural History. gives an interesting account In Le Naturnliste, of a semi-amphibious fish —the protopterus annecteos—which is found in certain African riven

so. L—HDWBKATWO FISH.

As will be seen from the cot, it is a long, slender flsh, resembling an eel, and in the rainy season, when the rivers are high, and the adjacent rice fields flooded, it seeks the overflowed land. As the rivers fall, it borrows into the mod, doubling Itself up into an oval ring, and forming a sort of nest, in which it remains in safety during the seven month# of dry weather. (Fig. 2.) A small opening is left for air, and in a short time a sort of glue exudes from the body of the animal, which mixes with the earth of the sides of tho burrow and hardens to a solid shell, perfectly protecting the occupant from injury. Incased in these natural cells, the specimens described by Professor Heckel were brought to Paris, and, when opened and placed in water, the curious animal* soon revived and lived for several days.

HO. &—HIBKRHATCTO FISH.

The protopterus seems to be an intermediate form between a flsh and a batrachian. Frogs, ns is well known, hibernate In the mud, hiit this anitual. in its general appearance, urst liberated they wore'ui irb—Wheq but, after a few days' exposure to light and air, changed to a deep green hue. These Strange animals average about a foot In length, and aro considered a great delicacy by the natives, who eagerly pursuo them, both on land and water. Other specimens will doubtless be brought to Europe and America, and their specific characteristics more closely studied.

la the lYutnan Voice Growing*

In his article on speech and song in The Contemporary Review, Sir Moroll Mackenlie writes: "Before leaving the subject of the spooking voice, a word or two may be said on what is more a matter of curious speculation than of practical interest. Is the human voice growing in power and beauty, or is it tending to decay! Certain phyrlolo* gists assure us that tho retina has acquired the power of distinguishing colors by degrees, and that the process will probably eontinue, so that our descendants will by and by evolve the power of seeing colors now quite unknown to us. On tho other hand, it is undeniable that civilisation, so far from increasing tho keenness of sight, threatens to make spectacles universally necessary. "There can be no doubt that the voice has developed greatly since our 'half human ancestors' woed ouch other in the primeval forests, and It is conceivable that it may in time to come acquire the power of producing musical effects at present undreamt of. It is also probable enough that, as the voice gains in sweetness, It may lose in power, the latter quality being more required in barbarous than in highly civilised conditions. On the other hand, we are taller and of laiyer ehesV girth than our predecessors, even of a not vsry remote date it is roaaooaWe, therefore, to suppose that the average lungs and larynx are trigger nowadays, ana the air blast from the lungs stronger. This woukl appear to justify us in believing that the voice is stronger than it was even two or three centuries ago. There are, however, no facts that I know of to prove it*

Preventing Sheet Xroa Stack* Prom Host. A correspondent in Artisan gives a simple plan of proven ting sheet iron stacks from rusting He lays that If before raising the new chimney, each section, as it comes from the shop, be coated with common ooal tar, then filled with light shavings and fired, it will resist rust for an indefinite period, rendering future painting unnecessary. In proof of this be cites a chimney which was erected in 180G» treated as above described, and is today as bright as the day it was raised, without having a partlcta of paint applied since. The theory by wkkk be accounts for this result is that the coal tar It literally burned into the iron, dosing the pores and rendering it rust proof.

|j THE CURIOSITY 8HOP.

The Dominical Letter—The Golden Haas* ber—'Why So Xamed. The Dominical letter is the letter which in oaf almanacs marks Sunday (to Domini). In the calendar the 1st of January is always AonmtaA by A, and the Dominical letter Is that which denotes the first Sunday, and except in leap year, all other Sunoaysof the ir. In leap year there are twe Dominical «Uen, the first for the Sundays between Jan. land Feb. », the second for the other 8undays of the year, the Interpolation being postponed until the end of February Instead of being made at the beginning of the year. We do not know who invented the Dominical letter perhaps Diooysitts Exiguus, who lived A. D. 560, and devised the Dkmysian or common era, dating it from the time of Christ. The Dominical letters are based on the Roman nundinal letters the Roman market day happened every ninth day. The Christian adopted the Jewish week, and necessarily the nundinal letters fell into disuse .mag jfrwwi There are no year letters the golden numbers represent the number of the year in the lunar cycle at nineteen years at the end of that cycle the moon has her changes on the same day of the solar year «ml month on which she had them nineteen years previously. The numbers of this cycle are of great use in determining Easter, and got their name by being written in dar in letters of gold.

A 4 & 8 British Divorce Statistics. The return of divorce suits and judicial separations, asked for by Mr. Gladstone* last December and just published, gives a series of figures extending from 1858 to the end of 1887. Of course no comments are made, only the bare numerical statement is printed, but the figures speak eloquently enough. Altogether, during the thirty years over which the record extends, there were 2,734 petitions for judicial separations and 10,561 for divorce. Of the former, rather more than oner third were successful and about one-eighth were dismissed the rest, that is to say, more than h*if, being arranged privately. A much larger part of the divorce casee resulted successfully, the number of decrees pronounced being 7,821, an average of 266 per year, and nearly three-quarters of the number of peti tions. About 2,428 cases never came to hearing, but of those which were brought into court only 812, or one-thirteenth of the total, were dismissed. The queen's proctor intervened in 2M cases, four times out of five with the result of a reversal of the decree. But such general summaries give very poor idea of the actual state of things which this striking return reveals. If the various statistics are studied carefully it is at once obvious how very greatly the number of petitions has increased in recent years.

The Oyster in Mud.

Dr. A. Oemler, an authority on the oyster, who recently read a paper on the subject before the Georgia Historical society, says: "Mud is the most formidable enemy of the oyster. Even if the water which passes through Its gills or lungs is muddy, the little creature dies from asphyxia or suffocation. If, in its search for the homestead, upon which its lifo depends, it encounters a film of mud the thickness of a sheet of writing paper, its fine, soft organs of locomotion being inadequate to free it from the eugulfing medium, its course is run. A largo oyster sm*»,'x»f1(}a05ite(L ujjqp consistency to sustain its weight so that its bill may reach high enough abo'ro tbtr bottom of the animal to draw clean water through its gills for the purification of its blood, and into its mouth for its support."

Castle William*.

Castle Williams, not William, is on the western extremity of Governor's lisland in Now York harbor. It looks like a tower, or like a cheese box that isnt on a raft. Fort Lafayette is on an island In the Narrows, under the bluff on which Fort Hamilton stands. Castlo Williams was named after Col. Jonathan Williams, who was first commandant of West Point in 1803, engineer in chief of the army In 1805, and died in 181&. Ho built most of the inner i'ortiflca tions of New York harbor, including Fort Columbus and Castle Williams, on Governor's island, and Fort Clinton, now Castle Garden.

Carpenter'* Great Painting.

When Carpenter painted tho picture of the deathbed of Lioooin the figure of Andrew Johnson was one of those gathered about tlie couch, and this was as tt should be, for be was really there with the members of the cabinet and others. Before the picture was quite finished, however, the feeling in the north bad grown so bitter against Johnson that the artist feared lest the popularity of the picture would be injured by the appearance in it of the then chief executive. He therefore erased President Johnson and inserted Schuyler Colfax in his stead, although Colfax was not really present at the death of Lincoln. v- '.4

Death of Charles Xll.

Charles XII of Sweden was killed "at the seige of FroderlckthaU, Dec. 11, 171& It is not certainly known how be was killed, or by whom. He was found during the seige leaning against a parapet, as if examining the works, his band on his sword and a prayer book In his pocket. It is said that he waa killed by a cannon shot, but It Is now generally supposed that he waa killed by a pistol shot from the hands of a traitorous soldi®*, The life of Charles XII Is mora curious than that of any otber sovereign.

Hodge was well taken care of, for the dootor was in the habit of treating him to oyaters, going out to buy these himself, for he thought that if the servants had todoso they might take a dislike to the poor an5 for causing them trouble, and th "kick him on the sly."

Hamnpl Johnson was born in 1709, and died in 1784. He was buried at Westminster abbey close by the grave of Garrick. His dictionary, entitling its author to being considered the founder of English lexicography, appeared in 1755. 4$^

Tho Crown Prince of Japan.

Of the children of the emperor of Japan only one son and one daughter remain to him, Prince Haru and the Princess Hisa. Yoshi Hi to, Haru no Mlya celebrated his ninth birthday on Aug. 81, 1888, and if he lives will succeed his father on the throne. Prin cesB Hisa is 8 years old, but although end presses have ruled Japan in tho early centif ties, the line of succession passes from Print* Haru to the cousins of the emperor.

The word Hani In tho Japanese language means springtime, and Aki, the ijflpie of tho last prince who means autu that the brothers, Priiic finrlncr autumn, often spoken of together,and the pla^ upon their namea gave court poetr many opportunities to turn graceful verses to them.

pbxkck

Prince Haru has the rank of a oolonel in the Japanese army, and wears his military uniform and his cap with the gold star all the time, bis clothes being dark blue cloth In winter and white duck in summer. He is fond of riding, and, when mounted, the miniature colonel trots along at a fine gait, giving and returning the military salute as be perns an officer or a sentry like a young martinet, says a writer in St. Nicholas, from which the picture here given la a reproduction.

A Short Chapter on "Lock." Wo have always had our doubts as to the existence of what is geuerally termed "luck." Men who, dither by favorable circumstances or an unexplained freak of fortune, are always seeming to be favored, are termed "tacky," and many are inclined to covet them its possession. But here is a truthful remark from one of our which bears out our theory that *1nok only a myth, and In reality it is only by our own personal exertions and efforts that we are ever realty lucky: "If the bar who exclaims. 'Just my hjckf was truthful be would say, 'Just my hwdneser or 'Jost my inattention "Mr. Cobden wrote prove! bs about 'Lock and Labor.' It would be well for boy* to memorise them. Lock Is waiting for something to turn tm. Labor, with keen eyes and strong will, win torn up mmrthing Luck lies in bed and wishes the postman would bring him news of a legacy. Labor turns oat at 0 o^ock, and with busy pen or ringing hammer lays the foundation of a competency. Lock whines, labor whhtlea Lock reUas on chance, labor on character. Lock strides down to indigence. Labor strides upward to independence.

PHYSIOLOGY AND HYGIENE.

The Itcst Requisite «w a Happy 8omsnr Oattng and Beneficial Vacation. Many who have become enfeebled by long confinement and close attention to sedentary occupations, rush away far a short holiday and endeavor by systematic over exertion to make up for the inactivity of the previous months. In regard to this eastern Medical Classics says that every year .brings sad warnings of its foDy In a record of fatalities, while the experience of most practitioners shows yet more clearly that this overstrain is followed by prolonged illness. The circulatory »twI respiratory systems work hand in hand and rebel against any sudden disturbance of their ordinary rontine. The danger Is always greatest when there is any heart weakness.

In moments of intense nervous excitement the breathing is frequently unconsciously stopped, and the strain upon an enfeebled heart then becomes very severe. Emotional excitement necessarily produces palpitation, and the frn»tlr« of the thorax (chest) then adds to the difficulty at the moment when the heart is at its weakest. The prime requisite for a happy snmmwr outing, for a beneficial vacation, is the harmonious setting. Keep oool dont fret your nerves strive to keep your temper, and be deliberate. Dont hurry. A vacation in the summer is a good thing—a very good thing—provided you go about it like a sensible bring, tat us drop our American way of doing it. It is the paoe that is snapping so many strings. Go slow.

Clean and Renew tbe Water Filter. At thfa season of the year the domestic water filter becomes an institution of no little importance. It should be, of ooufse, at all of tbe year, but summer temperature tends to develop whatever potency for mischief water impurities may possess, while, as a rule, cold tends to avert some of it. American Analyst remarks that it is a very common and a very dangerous assumption that a filter is a filter, and, once set up, may be relied on for an indefinite period. It is much better not to filter water at all than to believe in such a precept There can be no hesitation in Hamming that the result of the purification murt be tn a ratio to tbe care bestowed on tho filter.

Tbe material in domestic filters should be readily accessible in all their parts for cleaning and renewing, more especially if vegetable or animal charcoal is used for, although this material may prove satisfactory for a short time as a chemical purifier of water, both chemists and biologists are agreed that its use in tbe purification of drinking water is attended with much risk and since the progress of science has revealed the deadly notion of living zymotic poisons which occur in contaminated water, another and a much more serious danger through the use of charcoal has shown itself. The commissioners on "rivers' pollution" in England have thus expressed their views: "The property which charcoal possesses in a high degree of favoring the growth of the low forms of organic life is a serious drawback to its use as a filtering medium for potable water."

Our Heads.

Dr. Digbt, of the American college of Beirut, Syria, has made an examination of a collection of human skulls which are stored away in an old monastery in the Kedron val.lay, midway between Jerusalem and the Dead sea, and has carefully compared these skulls with those of tbe same race at tbe present nrwi finds some significant differences. uWIUwnBFwiiili f—p naw nag—vm |MW thirteen centuries increased In droumferenoe nearly two inches, and has gained in cranial capacity three and a half cubic inches.

To Be Proud Ot

It always gives gives us pleasure to record the successful result of well directed effort in any department of business, especially when that success is backed by merit, and tends to promote the general welfare. Competition in all branches of business at this time is great, and he who by energy, integrity and perseverance takes the lead is worthy of oommendation. In this connection we allude to Dr. Tutt, of New York, who has achieved a great viotorv over long established oom peti tore in the introduction of his world renowned Liver Pills. In a comparatively short time they surpassed pills that had been before the ublio over a quarter of a century. Jutt's Liver Pills have gained a popularity unparalleled. Indorsed by tne Medical Faculty inlEurope and America, they have become a household word on both continents.

Dr. Tutt deserves, and doubtless has, the gratitude of thousands of invalids who have been healed by his medicine. In this age of quackery it is refreshing to know that there is at least one who furnishes a remedy on scientific prinoiles, and offers it to the sick oonscien-

Jously. We record his success with a feeling of pride which every American should have at the triumph of one of his oountrymen.
