Direction and Velocity of Winds—How the Velocity Is Measured by Means of the Anemometer—An Anemcmeier Illustrated and Described.

Winds are currents moving in the atindbphere with variable Erection* and velocities. There are eight principal directions id which they blow: North, northeast, east, southeast, south, southwest, west and northwest. Mariners further divide each of the distances between these eight directions into four others, making in all thirty-two directions, which are called points or rhumbs. A figure of these thirty-two rhumbs on a circle, in the form of a star, is known as the mariner's card.

AX ANEMOMETER.

The direction of the wind is determined by tneanB of vanes, and its velocity by means of the anemometer. There are several forms of this instrument. The most usual consists of a small vane with fans, which the wiud turns the velocity in deduced from the number of turns made in a given time, which is measured by means of an endless «crew and wheelwork. One commonly used and represented in the cut is known as Robinson's anemometer. It consists of a metal cross with hemispheres at the ends, and fixed on an axis. The motion of this cross is transmitted by means of an endless screw to a train of wheel work and from the number of turns made in* a given time, which is indicated by the pointers, the velocity of the wind is deduced. Say, that the mean velocity is from 18 to 20 feet in a second. With a velocity of 6 or 7 feet, the wind iB moderate with 80 or 85 feet, it is fresh with ttl or 70 feet, it is strong with a velocity of 85 to 00 feet, it is a tempest, and from 90 to 120 it is a hurricane. The velocity of a wind may, under favorable circumstances, bf measured by observing the time which the shadow of a cloud takes to pass over afield or any space, the dimensions of which are known.

Sounding Stones In llrlttany. Not far from the town of Dman, in Brittany, me several large stonos which have the remarkable property of giving out when struck a clear musical sound. These stones, according to Nature, are composed principally of the mineral known as amphibole, and are of a roughly prmnmtic shape, about twenty feet in length. They are not erratic bowldeiM brought by ancient glaciers, but have been broken off from the neighboring strata RXHI worn into their present shape by the action of the waters of the river and sea, as, at the point where they are found, the waters of the river enter into a small bay and are forced hack by the rising tide twice a day.

Www. niiiiMrom sfmflw stones in the vicinity which show the same phenomena, but none so perfectly us the one described. The projwty of producing a musical note is very different from that of the "singing sauiis" which occur iu various parts of the world, and is, undoubtedly, simply due to the hard, close grained structure of the rocks, as well as the position in which they are placed, tluwe giving the clearest notes being lifted up from the ground and supported at a few points only by other similar stones. A species of feldspar known as phonolite, or clinkstone, gives similar sounds when struck by the hammer^

loo orest Vibration In Watches. A very troublesome fault with some of the l»est class of Swiss watches is a too great vibration, causing the balance to strike the tmnkiugs. It is most often found in watches having large wheel teeth with straight' inclines. The more modern practice is to curve the noting face of the teeth, and a slight alteration of the tooth diminishing the incline at the heel of the torth will always diminish the amount of vibration,

Kt|Mrim«nt* with Iron.

Iron is acted upon in a powerful manner by most acids. If some nitric add is poured on iron nails, a stream of red nitrous vapor is let loose, and the oxidised iron is dissolved in the liquid to the condition of nitrate of iron. This experiment is an easy one to perform and it gives an idea of the energy of certain chemical actions. We have endeavored to reprecent its appearance in the annexed cut

Fuming nitric acid does not act on iron and prevents its being attacked by ordinary nitric acid. This property has given rise to a remarkable experton passive iron. It consist* in placing some nails in a glass into which some fuming HKW AS© xnrmtc ACID. nitric acid is poured, which produces no results. The fuming acid is then taken oat and is replaced by ordinary nitric add. which no lodger acts on the iron rendered passive by the smoking acid. After this, if the nails are toadied by a piece of Iran which has not nwt jone the action of nitric add, th«or» are Imr lately acted upon and a riving off of nitrous vapor is manifested with grwat energy.

& THE CURIOSITY SHOP. XI -i*. A Custom of F'lanttez Trees for a Bride's

Dowry!

There is a beautiful custom in some of the northern parts of Europe. There the white poplar, in good soil, increases a shilling in value every year. The trees are generally eat down at the

agp

of 20 years, is they are

then supposed to have attained their foil growth. When a daughter is btm in the family of a respectable farmer the father, as soon as the season will permit, plants a thousand young trees, which are to constitute the dowry of the midden, "which grow as she grows and increase in height and value as her virtues and beauty increase." iljp

Sliuute Living Beinp.

Mites are found not only in cheeses but in preserves, meal, dried flesh and other articles of domestic consumption. They have as regular a figure and perform all the functions of lifelike creatures that exceed them many times in bulk. They have a sharp snout and a mouth that opens and shuts like a mole's. The various part* of the body are covered with long hairs, and even these haint are bristly. From the eggs of the females the young are hatched in twelve to fourteen days, and are so small that 00,000,000 are not equal to a pigeon's egg.

Attributes of Different Lenses.5 The principle of magnifying power, effected by convex and concaVe crystal surfaces, arise from the indefinite multiplication of images by surfaces at different angles. A lens with three surfaces of sixty degrees gives three images,, one with 180 of one degree each, 180 figures, scarcely separable, but one with 10,800 surfaces, of one minute each, gives 10,800 images, still ksB separable. When, however, the curved form is given, and the sides become infinite, the images are infinite and, being no longer separable, are seen as one image under one enlarged angle.

A Metallic Meteorite.

The heaviest purely metallic meteorite known is the "thunderbolt" of the Arab Sheik Kalaph Ben As sab. It fell in Central Arabia, and is one of the ten known meteorites that have been seen when falling. It was bought by English authorities, who have since caused it to be chemically analysed. It contains 91.04 per cent, of iron, 7.40 nickel, 0.66 cobalt, traces of copper, phosphorus, and 0.89 of amorphous carbon. Its weight is 130 pounds. Much larger stony meteorites are known, including one of twenty-five tons,

Tropical Bains.

Rain within the tropics is not of the drizzling character of rain in the temperate zone, but generally falls in such torrents as in other zones would be called waterspouts. They produce great floods in a single day. Winter is distinguished from summer chiefly by the quantity of rain, which is often constant for many days together, and lasts a certain number of hours per day through six months. The rivers, in consequence, overflow, and on drying off make the atmosphere unwholesome.

Perfume Does Not Diminish Weight A grain of musk has .been kept freely exposed to the air of a room, of which the door and window were constantly open far ten years, during all which time the air, though constantly changed, was completely impregnated with the odor of musk, and yet at the end of that time the particle was found not to havs sensibly diminished ih ™Hht- •«,

Height of Sea Waves.

Careful experiments made by an experienced English navigator at Santander, on the north coast of Spain showed that the crest of sea waves in a long and heavy gale were forty-two feet high, and allowing the same for the depth between the waves would muke a height of eighty-four feet from crest to base, si

Slow Transformations Called Evolution. A blue egg may become a robin. The latent life hid by marble walls may be warmed into activity and gather to itself the crumbs from a cottage table and weave therefrom the tissues of life—feet to perch among the blossoms, wings to fly among the trees, eyes to revel in the scenes disclosed by sunlight, and vocal organs to sing the song of love to mate.

A tiny seed may become a "big tree for, warmed into life, it sends its rootlets into the nourishing earth and its branches into the vivifying air, and gathers materials with which to build a noble growth of the forest.

Tbri rill bora of a summer shower carries the sand from the hillside and gives it to the brook, and the brook bears it on to the river, i.nd the river transports it to the sea, and the impregnated tide finds a nest beneath the waves and in it lays the egg of an island. Then this boss on the floor of the ocean has the power to gather about it more sands as they come from the distant hills, fliud still more sands. Every summer shower gives it more, and every storm adds to the sands that are thus buried beneath the sea, until at last an island is hatched, as it lifts its head above the waves.

Robins grow to be ftbins bjKfnhliite increase trees grow to be trees by minute increase islands grow to be islands by minute increase. This slow but sure change on change, Science tells you, is called evolution.

HOMO PIG..fe

"The homo pig is a native of America, England, Mexico—and all other countries. Its •jolor may be either white, black, yellow, brown or copper colored. Its head resembles a porker pig's, while its body is like that of a human being. It is sometimes intelligent, and may be taught many things. It is a herbivorous and carnivorous animal, and will eat almost anything else. Its chief characteristic is its prodigious appetite and Its disposition to have the most and best of everything, regardless of the rights of others. "We were told the other day of a young homo pig not more than four feet high that can consume as much as the hired man at each feed, besides eating almost continually between meals of apples, nuts, turnips, candies, slippery elm and cinnamon barks and other odds and ends." f'S

MutUtclie, a Military Dog.

If the deeds of brave men find their record in print, may not a corner now and then be given to brave doings of our four footed friends, the dogst Probably no dog has ever rendered such good service as the celebrated poodle whose name stands at the bead of this short notice. French by birth, he followed the fortunes of the French army through most of the Consulate wars, winning special honors at Marengo. Aft the battle of Austerlits he rescued the regimental standard from an Austrian soldier, when in the act of scatching it from the hand of its mortally wounded bearer. The plucky poodle drove off the assailant, and then, seizing the tattered oolors in his teeth, dragged tbmn triumphantly bach to his own company. There it nothing said as to his personal appearance and bearing, or whether he was a large or a small, a black or a white poodle, but for his brave conduct, as above recorded, be was decorated on the field of Auslerhtz by one of the French officers.

PHYSIOLOGY AND HYGIENE.

A ITew Bacillus—Has the True Cause of Baldness Been at Last Discovered? Dr. Saymonne is reported to have succeeded in isolating a bacillus named by hixn "bacillus crinivorax," which he regards as the cause of baldness. He claims that- it is found only on the scalp of man, other hirsute parts of the body and also the fur of animals being free from it. The bacilli invade the hair follicles and make the hairs very brittle, so they break off to the skin. Then the roots themselves are attacked. If the microbes can be destroyed early in the disease, the vitality of the hairs maybe preserved but after the follicles are invaded and their structures destroyed, baldne® becomes incurable. Dr. Saymonne proposes the follow ing remedy or preventive of baldness:

Ten parts crude cod liver oil, ten parts oi the expressed juice of onions, and five parts of mucilage or the yolk of an egg are thoroughly shaken together, and the mixture applied to the scalp, and well rubbed in, once a week. This he asserts, will certainly bring back the hair if the roots are not already destroyed. But the remedy, as The Medical Record remarks, must be very distressing to the patients friends and neighbors.

Take Time and Be Happy at Meals. *'lt cannot be disputed that in the art of feeding the human animals they do these things better in France." So says the London Hospital and proceeds to draw the following comparisons between the eating habits of Englishmen and Frenchmen, which are not without some application to Americans as well: The middle-class Englishman eats hunks of beef and wedges of mutton, followed by pudding as solid as lead, and washed down with strong Burton ale, or still stronger Dublin stout. That is very good fare for plowmen and fox hunters. To the town man it is simply ruin. The Frenchman knows better. Neither in town nor in country will he feed like a carnivore. He believes in variety he likes a little bit of many dishes, not a vast mountain of one. He likes it made pleasant to the taste. He takes time over it. It is quite the rule on the continent to see all the busy men in the town spend at least an hour at the l'estaurant over the midday meal. The eating done, a smoke, a game of draughts or dominoes and a cup of coffee are invoked as aids to digestion.

The natural result is that a Frenchman or a Belgian looks happy at meals, and still happier at his coffee and dominoes. Is any man unscientific enough to say that the Frenchman is wrong and the Englishman is right! Elating is undoubtedly one of the chief functions of life, and if it be right to make all life bright and happy, then eating should bo one of its chief pleasures. We English have a great deal to learn from many countries. We cannot do better than begin by learning how to prepare food sa that it shall be pleasant and tempting to the senses, and how to eat it without looking like mutes at a funeral or lions at an ill managed "Zoo."?-'

lee Itemedy for Nausea.

I

,!A

physician advances the theory thnt the distressing sensation of nausea has its in the brain and not in the stomach, and that relief may be obtained by cooling the base of the brain. He claims to have tested this often and thoroughly in the case of sick headache, bilious colic, cholera morbus and other ills in which the nausea is a distressing symptom, without a single failure I also, that he once relieved the nausea resulting l'rom cancer of the stomach by the application of ice to the back of the neck and occipital bone. The ice is to be broken and the bits placed between the folds of a towel, ^belief may be obtained by holding the bead over a sink, or tub, and pouring a small stream of water on the back of the neck.

This is worth remembering as a relief for nick headache, to which so many are subject.

,}| Onager hi the Us® of Carbolic Acid. -Carbolic acid is freely used by people in general as a disinfectant and for various purposes, and usually without a thought of danger. The following letter, by Dr. Billroth, of Vienna, lately published in The Lancet, is therefore somewhat of a surprise and may convey a needed caution: "I have lately seen four cases ip which fingers which had nuffered a most insignificant injury became gangrenous through the uncalled for application of carbolic acid. Carbolic acid is now much less used in surgery than formerly. We have only gradually become acquainted witu its dangers. The acid may not only cause inflammation and gangrene, but also blood poisoning, and so may even prove fatal. It is useful only in the hands of a skillful surgeon, and ought never to be used without h.'s advice."

SOCIAL ETIQUETTE.

Various Useful Items About Prevailing Wedding Customs and Usages. -"As wedding? are again the order of the day, prospective brides and bridegrooms may find assistance in a few items of etiquette relating to the important occasion when the matrimonial knot is tied.

First and foremost, as an answer to a question that seems never to stay answered, it may be emphatically remarked that a bridegroom should never wear the usual evening drew coat at a wedding in the day time. The proper costume is what is known as formal morning dress, for which a black frock coat i* the correct one. No man of fashion puts on bis dress coat before his 6 or 7 o'clock dinner.

Where a death has recently occurred in a family all friends, even the widowed mother, should, according to as good authority as Mrs. Sherwood, lay aside their mourning for the ceremony, appearing in colors. It isconsfdered unlucky and inappropriate to wear black at a wedding. In our country a widowed mother appears at her danghter's wedding in purple silk or velvet in England she wears deep cardinal red, which is considered under these circumstances to be mourning or proper for people In mourning.

A widow should never be accompanied by bridesmaids or wear a veil or orange blossoms at her marriage.

She should wear at church a colored silk drew and bonnet and should bo attended by her father, brother or some near friend, ft is proper for her to remove her first wedding ring, as the wearing of that cannot bat be patnfnl to the bridegrt*m.
