SCIENCE AND PROGRESS.

SUBJECTS OF A PRACTICAL NATURE SURE TO INTEREST REAOERS.

Kleetrlo Lighting by the KOOWIM System. An Illustrated Pcsmtptfcm of (ha Stor*C* Battery—An Experiment la KqnUibrlum AflWrds Plenalng Bcertttian.

The Knowle* electric lteht system constat) central station containing the dynamos for the generation of the current, which then conducted to Cbe several points at which itis to be used. At these points, instead of passing the current through the lamps, it is employed in storage batteries, and from then storage batteries the current for lamp use is obtained. It is maintained that this system is more economical and that it allow* of longer circuits than that of direct distribution.

The system has been in operation for soma time tn Brooklyn, N. Y. The battery station in this Brooklyn plant is about half a mile away from the dynamo station.

STORAGE BATTHIT—K80WLS8' PATKKT. In his secondary battery Mr. Knowles has several new features, and has avoided the application of the active material as a pas "Hie figure in the cut, a reprint from Science, shows the coll complete. The perforated plates of non-oxidizable alloy are made in two sheets, between which is held a layer of the active material, which is molded to the right shape before being placed between the two halree of the retaining plates. When ready the whole is assembled as shown in the illustration, flexible insulating rods being passed through the hooks cast on the plates top and bottom.

/to Experiment In Equilibrium. A pleasing scientific recreation is afforded by a box of domlnoss, the problem being to stand every piece upon its point without the aid of any foreign opject. This, explains La Nature, is accomplished by arranging them in a circle, as shown in the engraving, tho first domino being kept in position by resting it against another one which lays flat upon the table. When tho circle is almost completed tho two end* aro e.irafully steadied with tho hands, and tha recumbent domino raised toon upright position, forming, a.* it were, the keystone of tho structure. This is the only part of tho oxparinnnt requiring any cur*. And, as is shown in tho engraving, the greatest stability is obtained by giving tho dominoes such an inclination that the top of each rests against the middle dividing line of the succeeding one.

STANDtHO KTZRY DOMINO UPON ITS POINT. By another method it is even possible to arrange the dominoes in a straight line. To do this, the cover of the box is used as a sup* port for the flrst piece, and the others aro placed in the same order as in the previous experiment, taking can? to make the inclination somewhat leas. After all are in place, the ends are steadied by the hands and prom) together, while tho Une of dominoes is gently worked back and forth until the desired stability Is obtained, when the box cover may bo removed and the dominoes left standing by themsetvea, mutually supported by each other upou their points.

11. A. Hasen, in Science, assorts the cause of fog as follows 1. It is cesential that there be no wind. I do not mean that the wind does not blow the fog after It is formed, but there must be little or none while it is forming. The sky most be clear. We often notice a cloudless sky after a fog is diari-

Kr,

ted. On weather maps "fog" is entered as for, though not a particle of sky is visible, yet it is almost a certainty that the sky is clear. &. The air must be saturated or nearly sa It is very surprising how rarely the last condition occurs at inland stations. A relative humidity of S3 per. cent has bean noted In the air lu which rain ts falling and had tweo falling continuously for Keren teen hour*. This condition almost always can occur only to the south, sootheast or northeast of a storm. At nightfall, whenever these conditions combine, there is a rapid radiation from the earth to the Ay, which speedily supersaturates the overlying ah", and after that radiation from the upper surface of the fog continues tike process ax*d extends the fog upward until the action ceases with the rising of the sun.

THE CURIOSITY SHOP.

Ceylon Spiders—A Web lite Silk—Jaws Like a Blrdls Beak. Far up in the moon tains of Ceylon and In dia there is a spider that spins a web like bright, yellowish dUk, the mitral net of which is five feet is diameter, while the sopporting lines, or guys, as tbey are called, measure sometimes ten or twelve feet long and riding quickly in the early morning you may dash right into it, the stout threads twining around your face like a hue veil, while, as the creature who has woven it takes up his position in the middle, he generally catches you right on the nose, and, though be seldom bites or stings, the contact of bis large body and long legs Is anything but pleasant, if you forget yourself and try to catch him, bite be will, and, although not venomous, his Jaws are as powerful as a bird's beak, and you are not likely to forget the encounter.

The bodies of the spiders are very handsomely decorated, being bright gold or scarlet underneath, while the upper part is covered with the most delicate slate colored fur. So strong are the webs that birds the size of larks are frequently caught therein, and even the small but powerful scaly lixard falls a victim. A writer says that ho has often sat ami watched the yellow and scarlet monster —measuring, when waiting tor his prey with his legs stretched out, fully six inchae—striding across the middle of the net,.and noted the rapid manner in which he winds bis stout threads around the unfortunate captive. He usually throws the coils about the heed till the wretched victim is flrst blinded and then choked. In many unfreqnented dark nooks of the jungle you may come across most perfect skeletons of small birds caught in these terrible snares, the strong folds of which prevent the delicate bones from falling to the ground after the wind and weather have dispersed the flesh and feathers from the body.

The peanut is a useful product—much more so, indeed, than people imagine. We all know how extensively it is eaten in its roasted state, but therein, by no means, lies the extent of its value. The nuts contain from 42 to 50 per cent. of a nearly colorless, bland, fixed oil, resembling Olive oil, and used for similar purposes. The best is obtained by cold expression, but a large quantity of inferior oil is procured by heating the seeds before pre«ing. It ts«a non-drying oil, changing but slowly by exposure to the atmosphere, and remaining fluid in a oold several degrees below 83 degs. Fahr. It contains, beside oleio and palmitic adds, two other oily acids, which have been called the arahio and hypogceio, though it is doubtful if they are really distinct. The prindpal consumption of the oil is in soap making. In 1883 Virginia began the manufacture of peanut flour, the result being a peculiarly palatable biscait, while Georgia has long made pastry of pounded peanuts.

The kernels roasted are largely used In the manufacture of chocolate, while the amande de terre, as has been shown, is used by the confectiouers. It is also ekten as a fruit and roasted for coffee. The poor man's fruit, the peanut, is capable oif sustaining life for along time, owing to Its peculiarly nutritive quail-, ties, the negroes using it alike in porridge, custard or a* a beverage. Nor does its usefulness end here, for the vines form a splendid fodder, as good as clover hay, while hogs will fatten on what they find in the fields after the crop has been gathered. It is an easy crop to raise, the demand for nuts has trebled within the past few years, and the supply has never yet equaled the demand. The quantity used in this country niay be set down at 8,000,000 bushels.

Slang Karnes. }.

The words "bloke,"

4,chum&"

"cad,"

"duffor," "sucker,1" are in commfm among all English speaking people. "Bloke" appears in the Century dictionary as a word of obscure derivation, meaning "man, fellow a term of disrespect or contumely." Perhaps It comes from block, meaning blockhead. "Bloke" seems to be applied to older persons than "chump," and as used now moans "fool, idiot, dunderhead, ass." "Chump" is also in the Century dictionary as Implied above, it is in meaning parallel with "bloke." It Is mid to be nrobaUy a nasalised form of "chub," Which means "a joltheod, a clownish fellow," or to come from "chunk." "Cad" is a dictionary word, and differs from "bloke"and "chump" In not being slang. It is thought to oome from the Scotch "caddie," an errand bay. It Is a term of great disrespect, and means "an illbred fellow, a vulgar fellow, a fellow who is no gentleman." "Duffer" means "an awkward, unhandy person it is mid to be a corruption of "dudder," a person who handle* clothes a peddler, who needs not necessarily have any particular skill, or from "dowfart," an RngHsh word, meaning "an awkward person." "Sucker" comes from the verb "suck," and has several meanings: I. A young fellow, a "kid not a term of contumely, though it may be of & A drunkard. & A sponger. 4 An man. As a corollary to I Is 5, one who is too young, and, therefore, inexperienced to know beans a greenhorn. The meaning of 'Snicker" depends on the meaner ami the meant,.^

TBS SfTlt AKD mut WOBSHIPXBS. The and MI Persians, though they believed in a sun god or spirit, Mithras, worshiped the sun as the mighty creation and brilliant emblem of the Great, Spirit, who had neither temples nor images. When the Arabe conquered Persia in tho middle of the Seventh century, they called the people Gnebres, or fire worshipers, on account of the veneration in which fire was held amongst them, and from their preserving certain fires as sacred and all those who would not acknowledge Mohammed as their prophet were driveu from the country, or into the most remote mountain fastnesses, where some of their descendants still linger. Great numbers of those Persians who clung to the faith of their fathers migrated to India, where they formed settlements at Bombay and at other places on the western coast and they have since hecome flourishing communities, and are known as Parsees, from their ancient name.

The Tea We Drink.

There are several different varieties of the tea plant, but the various kinds of the leaf known to commerce are mainly influenced by soil in which the plant is produced and the different manner in which the leaf is prepared. When the plants ut 8 years old they yield their first picking of leaves. They attain their maximum yield when about 10 years old, and then deteriorate, giving way to young plants. Naturally the plant would grow to the height of a tree, but, for the convenience of picking, it is kept pruned down to five feet. The earliest picking of the tea leaves is made the flrst of April. This consists of the buds and the very youngest leaves, and, though the smallest picking of tho year, Is the most rateable, because ef the flue flavor of the leaf. Tbe largest crop of the year is pioked about the 1st of May, and there is a picking of an inferior quality in July, and in some localities one of old and poor leaves even later.

The leaves, when picked, are first exposed to the sun and air In shallow baskets then they are stirred in heated pans, ami then are •pr-Mid upon a tftbl®, •'Here wwkme^bak^ them in small handfuls and rub them tbVoll them into the form which they finally retain. For fine teas there are repeated heatings and airings, and, before packing, they are spread upon a table, and the imperfectly rolled ItmveM are removed, and the dust and fine fragments sifted oat. If the prooees of drying is completed as rapidly as possible after picking, tho tea remains green, but for black tea the process is prolonged. The very bright green teas are said to be dried in copper pans. The Chinese districts in which tea is extensively raised lie between latitude 98 and 31 dogs, north. Tea is also extensively cultivated in Japan, in India, and also on the Island of Java, also to some extent on others of the 8outh Sea Islands. Some successful experiments have been made in raising tea in this oountry, both in the southern states and hi California^ The coet of labor here is the great difficulty, as there is modi slow and tedious work necessary in cultivating the plant and preparing the leaves for commer-

PHYSIOLOGY AND HYGIENE.

Some Facta A boat Potamaona Snake Bltee and a New Remedy for Then. In an article on tbe cure of poisonous snake bites by hypodermic injections of liquid strychnimDr. Mueller, of Victoria, Australia, affirms that an error which has ooet many lives is the following, viz.: That poisonous snakea under all circumstances leave only two punctures, and that in any alleged case of snake bite showing more than two punctures we raay safely infer that it was not inflicted by a poisonous snake. On the contrary be has met with fatal cases in which the poisonous bite left ono, two, three or four punctures, depending on the position of the reptile, as well as of the part bitten. When the bito has been received in a part capable of being ligatured, as tbe foot or hand, a boot lace or string should beat once tightened as near the wound as possible, on the side toward the heart, to prevent absorption of the poison into the circulation.

With strychnine solution as an antidote, Dr. Mueller advisee that, should the physician be unable to judge from the history of the case whether the symptoms emanate from fear or real poisoning, a small injection of liquid strychniae will. In case of mere fear, be quite sufficient to brace up the nervous system and restore confidence of recovery, with which all alarming symptoms quickly disappear. Their continuance would Indicate the presence of snake poisoning, and call for larger injections of the antidote. But if iu one of these cases of false alarm, alcohol has been administered in excess, as is usualh done, we find the patient in the oondition of coma—alcoholic coma—and we must diagnose this from snake bite coma. In alcoholic coma, the p^il is as often contracted as dilated, and becomes greatly dilated in extreme cases only, but even then shows a sluggish reaction to light the conjunctiva is invariably injected, the pulse slow and small, and the respiration alow, intermittent and often ster torouK. In snake bite coma, the pupil is ul ways greatly dilated and insensible to light, the conjunctiva pole and not injected, the pulse quick and small, and the respiration quick and shallow.

Dr. Mueller claims that the use of alcohol in snakebite is perfectly useless, while, on the other hand, strychnine acts with the un&ring certainty and precision of a chemical test Purely physiological in action, it neutralizes the effects of the snake poison, and, if pushed beyond the amount needed to neutralize the snake poison, would itself act aa a poison.

The amount of strychnine solution injected varied tn tbe several cases cited from seventeen minims to twenty minims per dose, or from one-sixth to one-fifth of a pain, repeated from time to time as tbe snake poison symptoms returned.

The amount of strychnine required can only be estimated by the nature and virulence of the bit*, and whether ligature and excision have bean well performed.

Don't Turn the Oas Too low. In spite of tbe fact that these are days of popular enlightenment, the newspapers are not unfrequently called upon to Chronicle cases where persons have been asphyxiated through Ignorantly blowing out the gas, instead of turning it off. Little attention, however, lias been drawn to a danger not as great, but more common. This oonsists In the habit many persons have of allowing one bracket to burn dimly all night long while they are asleep. If the gas is to be kept burning at all, It should for safety** sake be left blazing fairly high for, wfeen the flame is reduced to the faint blue spark, the least diminution fat piemofe at the works will cause this to go out, and when the pressure is renewed tbe gas, of coarse, esoapes steadily Into tho room, to the possible injury of all its inmates, A night lamp should be need, if light is necessary, or a fair blaze so shaded not fall npni-Mie foecs of' deepen*.

'J, it SOCIAL ETIQUETTE. *1

Garden Parties—Informal Entertainment of the Onft of loor Benson. At this time of year the idea of a garden party presents itself in bright oolors. We fancy we can enjoy the society of our friends in a less formal manner than we are able to do at dinner parties or evening "at homes."

The first tiling to be done is to send out the invitations, on which do not put R. S. V. P. Ask a certain number and reckon that a certain proportion will turn up when tbe day comes a few more or less will not matter, and it gives a feeling of ease when a family party know they can arrange as they like. If people are requested to answer tbey often accept and then find later that tbey are unable to oome. In the country this is often the case. The number of guests will naturally depend on the slse of your grounds, but do not ask too many it is better to give two moderate siaed parties than one unwieldy ooa Tbe arrangements must also provide for the possibility of a wet day.

Now, as to refreshment* Tbe dining room Is often used, bilk, except in case of ram, this Is fatal tothsal freeoo nature of a garden party. In any ones the table must be entirely removed, and a buffet substituted, behind which the servants can stand, and across which they oan reach with ease this is easily managed ty placing a suitable board on trestfea, which SHI be hired tor the panose either tn town or cuuutfy. An excellent arrangement lately used was one adopted where a kmg wall at one end of the garden was fitted with an awning jpst wide enough to shade a narrow table, or Wffet^ behind which stood the servants, the guests moving to and fro at pleasure. This pksa oan be earrted out, and near the house, in front, dotted over the gram, eanstssd several small tables, a* which the gnasts can sit comfortably, and thus pre vent too much crowding at the buffet. If yoa have no* a safidant number of small ibiafbamnrtbtlB teem friends or hire them «a some large Arm who sopphr each things, but they nrast be small and Ugh*, eo as to be easQy moved. Ooe or score servants should be told off to attend tothese tables, and to tee that no crumbs or empty caps, etc., are left standing abobt. In the event of rain tb* buffet can be placed in the dining room or. hafl, as already sagtfMtod, and if a conservatory is available tbe soiall tables will befound useful. Near the tennis lawn Should stand a table in a shady spot, plentifully amoved with drinks.

If the hostess has sons sad daughters tbey wlB aatnrally look after the different departments hot if she Is no! bbssed in this way, lias i&oold collect a staff of helpers among yoeng friends, each of whom should ta* a share of the responsibility, as the hosn win be entirely occupied in reoehrteg her guests, and should not he worried with minor matters, after having made every ponriMe proftsfaa before hand.
