The auloumtje jwleslrian originnlly depicted and flt-x.-ribed in tht PapuUtr Science News, ami ben* repro'luwl. is a curious little toy, iuteh'atina: from its very simplicity. It con.sists of an inclined plane formed from a piece of wood and some bent wires, and a small figure of tin, the lej{3 of which move freely on a pivot of wire as shown in the enlarged drawing.

Two other wires are passed through the body of the figure to prevent the legs from moving beyond the length of an ordinary

step. In its hands in placed ft piece of wire bent into the shape of a V. This serves as a balancing pole, and when the /Igtire is -0,'ir.Ml on the board it brings the center of gravity below its feet so that it will retain its upright position. If now the "pedestrian" is placed «t the top of the inclined plane he starts olT and walks rapidly down toward the lower end, throwing his weight from one foot to the other in a quite nalu ral mariner. When it in considered that there is no machinery at all concealed in the figure the result is quite surprising, but is easily explained as the result of the alight oscillatory motion given to the figure by the balancing wire. It is, iu fact, a pendulum, ami as It swings from side to side

The Inhabitant* of a Clioenc. Dr. Adametz, a Swiss scholar, has been taking a census of the inhabitants of a cheese. The microscopic examination of one "gratnm" of a fresh Kmmenthalet cheese, such as is sold under the name of Gruyere, contained no fewer than 90,000 so called microbes. This prodigious encampment, after seventy days, proved to have increased to a tribe of 800,000. Another sort of cheese contained within a single "gramm" board and lodging for about two million microbes, while in a "gratnm" rut from the rind of the same cheese Dr. Adametz found about five million of these inhabitants! A piece of cheesc upon our tables, of a few pounds' weight, may consequently contain more microbe Inhabitants than there are human inhabitants in the whole world.

A rhniioiituiiuii Attracting Attention* Experiments recently made in Germany havo added convincing evidence to a fact already noted—to wit, the variability of terrestrial latitudes—for example, tho lattltudes of Merlin, Potsdam and Prague, diminished between August, 1S89, and February, 1KK0, about half a second of arc. In tho latter year, between April and August, the latitude of Berlin increased four-tenths of a second. In other words, Merlin is nearer the North Pole in summer than in winter. The periodicity of these variations would indicate that the direction of the earth's axi-% under the influence of some external or internal disturbance, was changing.

CenipurutIre Ileimlty of Wuter and Wine. The experiment illustrated iu our cut is an old but admirable example of the gravity of water and wine.

Select two wine glasses of uniform size and li^ht, delicate make. Fill one even to the brim with claret or other dark colored vHne or liquor and the other with water. Cover tho glass of water with a card and dace it upside down on the glass filled with A-ine, so that the brims fit exactly one on the other. Next, carefully move the card between the two glasses just, a little,

sufficient to leave a small opening between the two glasses, and then quietly watch the result. The water immediately begins to flow into the wine, ami the wine, which is the lighter of the two fluids, mounts into the glass on the top. It takes from Ave to ten or more minute® to complete the experiment, but you will eventually see that the wine and water hare exchanged places, the water having driven thp wine into the upper glass. A little skill And patience are all that is required. It is advised to make the first experiments on a tray or similar re ceptacls, as the novice is liable to spill some of the liquid. _________

A Valuable Xintnl DlieowtJ. A Quebec correspondent calling attention to a remarkably valuable discovery in minerals, states that in Lower Canada there has been found an entire mountain comjH»«d of silicate*, otherwise known as vitriSable stone, of a purity certified by the provincial engineer to average 98 per cent. This material Is used for the manufacture of the finest glass, and is beUetrad to exist nowhere elate on the American continent in »ach parity.

THE CURIOSITY SHOP.

Strange Methods of Conversation—The Whistling and Drom uagres. At a recent meeting of a scientific society in Berlin a German officer who has spent some time on one of the Canary islands described the whistling language nsed by the inhabitants. It consists of the ordinary speech of the natives, expressed by articulate whistling. Each syllable has Its own appropriate tone. The whistler uses both fingers and lips, and it is asserted that conversation can be kept up at the distance of a mile. Whistling'is said to be confined to Gomera island, and to be quite unknown on the other islands of the group. The adoption of this mode of carrying on conversation

There are no bridges across these ravines, and the inconvenience of intercourse led the people to cultivate whistling as a useful means of conversing at a distance. The natives of the Cameroons, on the west coast of Africa, use what may be called the drum language. A peculiarly shaped drum is used. The surface of the head is divided into two unequal parts, yielding two distinct notes. By varying the intervals between the notes a complete code of signals for every syllable in the language is produced by means of it messages can be sent quickly from one village to another. The drummer in one village sends on to the next the signals which he hears, and so on until the message is delivered.

Another queer language is the finger speech, as it maybe called, of oriental traders. It is largely employed on the east coast of Africa. The parties engaged in conversation by this method clasp each other's hands beneath the capacious sleeves worn in the east. Or one will unroll his turban, and under the folds of it they will carry on the bargaining in which they are engaged. The reason for adopting this secret intercourse is simplo. In the cast all business is transacted in the open air. It would become a great hindrance to trade were it not for some such device to keep business negotiations private.

The Bad Lands.

The Bad Lands, or "Mauvaises Terres," as the old French fur traders called them, are iu Dakota, Wyoming and Northwestern Nebraska, between the north fork of the Platte and tho south fork of the Cheyenne river, and cover an area of about sixty thousand square miles* They are de scrilied as one of the most wonderful regions in the world. Geologists hold that during tho miocene period a vast fresh water lake covered this portion of the American continent. As these lakes drained off, after the subsidence of the plains further east, the original lake beds were worn into canyons that wind in every conceivable direction. Hero and there abrupt, almost perpendicular, portions of the ancient beds remain in all imaginable forms, some resembling tho ruins of abandoned cities. Towers, spires, cathedrals, obelisks, pyramids and monuments of various shapes appear on every side.

Dr. Hayden, the earliest explorer of this region, says: "Not infrequently the rising or setting sun will light up these grand old ruins with a wild, strange beauty, reminding one of a city illuminated in the night, as seen from some high point. The harder layers project from tho sides of the canyons with such regularity that they appear like seats of some vast, weird amphitheater." These lands are entirely tinsuited for agriculture, and with rare cceptions are of littlo value for grazing. They are, however, one of the richest treasuries of fossil remains to be found anywhere. The soft, clayey deposits are in some places literally filled with the bones of extinct species of the Ifcrse, rhinoceros, elephant, hog, camel, a deer that strongly resembled a hog, saber toothed lions and other marvelous creatures.

How Some Fashions Originated. Side saddles owe their origin to the infirmity of a titled Englishwoman who, having one leg shorter than tho other, made a departure from the prevailing fashion of riding astride. The neck ruff, which has continued to tho present day, was first worn by Queen Elizabeth of England to hide her neck, which was anything but beautiful. During tho reign of George III, his royal highness tho Duke of York hatl a duel with Colonel Lennox, and the worthy colonel succeeded in shooting away one of the duke's curls. Hence it became tho correct thing to wear a curl on one side of the temple only.

At tho battle of Steinkirk, which took place on tho morning of Aug. 3, 1692, the French nobles were surprised in their sleep, and hastily rushing out of their tents they arranged their lace cravats in the most careless manner. The French were victorious, and to commemorate their victory it became tho fashion after this to wear the neckcloth in a neglige manner. Hence ho origin of the Steinkirk cravat, as it was afterward called.

Henry Irving'* First Appearance. According to Mr. Alfred Davis* memoirs, Henry Irving made his first appearance on any stage in September, 1856, at the age of eighteen years. The words of his first lines, "Here's to our enterprise," had in them almost a prophetic tone of aspiration and success. In those days managers provided tho mere dress. Accessories, or "properties," as they werj called, were found by every actor. Henry Irving was, from his splendid white hat and feathers to the tips of his shoes, point device, a perfect picture and no doubt had borrowe# his authority from some historical picture of the I«ouis XIII period. From the very outset of his career be gave an earnest of that attention to detail, in ita microscopic points, which has culminated in hi* being facile princeps among stage directors and the best arranger of realistic theatrical pictures in the world.

A Poetical Will.

The following peculiar will, dated London, 1768, was made by one Will Jacket: I give and bequeath (When I'm laid underneath)

To my two loving sisters moat dear The whole of my store. Were it twice as much more, Which (tod's goodness has granted me hera.

And, that none may prevent This my will and intent,

Ste*» the MlMialppi River. The introduction of steam In the navigation of the Mississippi river was first made in October, 1S1L, by Nicholas J. Rosevelt who, under an arrangement with Fulton and Livingston, had a stern wheel steamboat built iu Pittsburg. It was of 900 tons burden, and was allied the New Orleans. The hull was 13$ feet long, 80 feet taam, and the cost of the whole was 140,000, including engines. The boat carried nib on two masts.

Too Early for the World's Fair. A pleasant little story is told in Golden Days of a small rosy cheeked girl who, picking up her doll and her doll's trunk, trudged a mile or more over frosty roads until she reached a railroad station. There she boarded the first train for Chicago, and contentedly settled herself and her doll in a vacant seat. By and by the conductor came along and looked down afc the little woman, who was pointing out flying trees and other points of interest to her companion, the doll. "Where are you going, little one?"- asked the big man with buttons. The round blue eyes were turned upward in astonishment, and the reply came, unhesitatingly, "Why, I'm going to the World's fair, of course!" The conductor coughed. "Aren't you rather early?" he asked. "I don't believe the doors are open yet." "Dear me," said the child, in alarm, "what shall I do?" "Perhaps you had better go home and ask your mother," suggested the conductor. And she did. She. was loaded with pretty things by interested fellow passengers, and returned to her mother in safety. We may reasonably expect that she will be among the first visitors when the World's fair opens its doors to the world.

A Boy'a Composition on Dogs and Cats. I'd rather have a dog than a cat, any day. Dogs can race cats, they can race other dogs, they can race boys or anything. Nobody ain't scared of a cat. A mouse is but not if it ain't somewheres that it can't get out of, or a rat, either. A dog can make a cat dead if he bites her enough. When he comes in the yard he can make her tail look like a Christmas tree, He can make her fix her back up like a camel. I ain't afraid of thieves but thieves are afraid of dogs. If a thief comes where a dog can get at him he'll run like the deust but the dog won't run. A dog can watch a house better than a policeman. He won't let the man that owns it come in the back yard in the middle of the night bufcacat would. If a man or any other thief was to sneak in, would a cat care? She'd go over the fence like lightning. That's what! A dog knows when you're home from school. Ho ain't sleepy then. He has fun with old hats, if you give him one. You've got to pay for keeping him but you don't a cat because a dog's some good and a cat ain't. I'd rather have a dog.—Puck.

April Showers.

In tho changeful April weather, Playing hide and seek together, Rain and sunshine, ligh| and shadow, throuarh tho woodlands come and go

Now athwart the tree tops glancing, Now amid the violets dancing In the quiet glades below. Now tho azure skies are clouded. In a mist the hills are shrouded, With tfte chill of vanished winter hurriedly the raindrops fall.

AS APRIL SHOWER.

And the buds look out in wonder At the mutterings of the thunder And the darkness over all! But the storm sweeps down the valley, And again the sunbeams rally. Flashing out their gay defiance in the rain bow's rrch of light

To the flowers new brightness bringing. To the robin, bravely singing, Sorer faith that all is right. —Mary Bowles.

An Amusing Game.

The players in this game are divided into two opposing sides and sit in two half circles at the same distance every way around a gentleman's silk hat placed on the floor in the center. Two differently .colored packs of cards are then given, one to each party, and by them equally dealt out to each player. aim Is for each player to throw a oard into the hat in the center, which is not nearly so easy a thing to do as may he supposed, and theffcoris soon littered with the cards which Call to go into the hat. The game is played till both packs are exhausted: then those cards that are in the haC are counted, and the side that has most of its own cokcr wins. This game may also be played by each player being singly opposed tp each other and by tits players standing up instead otsitting. It requires a oonsk. er&bteknadfctodoitwell and to throw the cardlnsaohamaaner that It falls into the hat.

PHYSIOUXSY AND HYGIENE.

A Clear Description of the Symptoms That Usher in an Attack of PneniboniS. There are well marked symptoms whish warn one of the approach of pneumonia. These are described by Hall's Journal of Health as follows:

The symptom that ushers in an attack of pneumonia is a chill. If you do not have a decided chill there is not much need of anxiety. Other symptoms are headache, backache, pains in the limbs, cdryza, some cough, with expectoration. You probably will get a "stitch in the side," which may be due to pleurisy or to inflammation in the lung itself. A great many have these symptoms who do not have pneumonia, but it is far safer to take care of the simple symptoms of influenza. Beware, always, of a chill! The second stage of pneumonia is a condition in Which the mucous membrane lining the air cells is overstimulated, and throwing out too much mucus. There Is also a slight presence of the red and white corpuscles of the blood. The red corpuscles impart to the expectorated matter a rusty color. This matter is tenacious. If the second stage is allowed to continue for any length of time it is very likely to run into the third stage,which is that of suppuration.

In this third stage the corpuscles of the blood.pass through the walls of the blood vessels in great quantities the actual tissue of the lungs becomes dead, and separatesaltogether completely fill the at first reipote air e:lls, later the larger air cells the lung solidifies, air is not allowed to enter the lungs, the blood remains impure, poisonous, and you die of suffocation. It is almost impossible to save a person in this, third stage. The first and second stages are serious and need the utmost care to escape the third stage. There is present in all of these stages a high fever, 103 degs. to 104 degs. pulse, 120 to 160, and respirations forty-eight to the minute.

The journal quoted advises that the symptoms described above be always treated. If you get a chill use at once the best means at hand to reduce the fever that is almost sure to follow. Pneumonia is a disease which needs careful watching. The let alone policy is almost sure to be fatal. You must go to bed. You must keep warm and have complete rest. You cannot be falsely brave and declare that "it is nothing but a cold." Pneumonia is a disease in which you need plenty of nutritious food—sometimes warm stimulants—the latter being commenced early.

How to Cure Dandruff.

A physician tells in The Lancet that he has had good results it persistent dandruff from the following treatment: The scalp should first be thoroughly washed with soap and hot water, and then thoroughly dried with a warm and soft cloth there should then be rubbed into the Bcalp a glycerole of tamiin of tho strength of ten to thirty grains to the ounce. Very obstinate cases will require the higher strength of tannin. This process should be repeated twice a week at first, once a week afterward. If tannin fails, as it will in some cases, then resort is had to resorcin. After the formation of dandruff has ceased the head should be rubbed daily with olive oil, containing to the ounce ten grains of carbolic acid and a dram of oil of cinnamon.

Washing the Hair with Ammonia, "Never put ammonia in the water in which you wash your hair," is the advice given by one who has tried it to her regret. She at least attributed certain untimely gray hairs that appeared to its frequent use on the parting of bang and tho locks about the temples. However that may be. boraJc answers the same purpose, and is free from deleterious results. U3e only a sufficient quantity to render the water soft and smooth to the touch, and it will leave the hair sweet and clean and fluffy. A few drops of violet in the water used for rinsing will impart a pleasant fragrance.

A Hint About Sponges.

Never use a new sponge, says an exchange, unless you havo thoroughly soaked it. This will take out the muriatic acid used in its preparation for the market. If you buy a sponge from a drug storeor anywhere at retail you do not get the virgin article that is dragged from the bottom of the sea. It has seen a number of changes. Sponges are bleached white with muriatic acid, and the men who do this work have sore and sometimes bleeding hands, on aoconnt of the strength of the solution. After bleaching the finer ones are dyed yellow.

SOCIAL ETIQUETTE.

The Perfection of Manner as Found l« Few Delightful People. "There are people of whom one never tires, no matter how often one sees them nor how intimate the associations may be. There is about them that air of perpetual charm and variety that makes them delightful companions. They are sure to be good tempered. There is never any fear of finding them in a pet nor a prey to some ill humor wholly unreasonable and unexplainable," says The World. "They are pleased wheq^ you are pleased and interested in what you hare to say. They are so sympathetic that your ills and troubles become their own, and your friends become so dear to them that not for the world would they do anything to rob you of them. "Sometimes with these bright, sweet natures you find the added charm of originality, and when you come across such a one treasure it and preserve it as one of the pearls of your life, for seldom, indeed, are talent, originality and good nature found combined in one mortal frame. A nature that is so richly endowd is threefold taleilted. It has the talent? of magnetism, the talent of keeping good nature and the priceless talent of originality."

An Afternoon Tea.

For an afternoon tea Harper's Bazar tells that the hostess sees that her rooms are in their best looks, fills a tow vases with fresh flowers to give a festal air, set# around table in her drawing room, library or in the dining room* if these apartment® are en suite, draws tip her prettiest cap* and saucers and plates in battle array, and invites a few young girls or intimate friends to assist her. They wear either pretty house costumes or dainty tea gowns. For refreshments are-provided tea and chocolate, possibly bouillon, bread and butter or tiny sandwiches, and plenty of light cakes. The eating is a secondary matter, the raison d'etre of the company being the desire for pleasant sodal Inter* course in an informal fashion.

The cards for an afternoon tea bear simply the name of the hostess and that of her daughter, if the latter is "out," and In the cotper is written or engraved "Tea" oar "At Home," imd the day and the hoar ef the ebtert&ixixaest. The card of any frilsnd who is visiting the hostess, or who entertains with her, 1$ Inclosed in the same envelope- the invited guest cannot ba present she sends her card, by post or bsf private hand, so that it may reach tbe hostess upon tha day when she metres.

Good Food for Mothers Important. Errors in food are dangerous in nursing mothers, who not only damage their own beauty for life by poor nourishment, but fail to supply children with strength of constitution. Sir Henry Thompson, the eminent writer on food, says: "Most of the diseases which embitter the middle and latter part of lifo are due to avoidable errors in diet. These errors begin many times when the child is a few hours old and continue through the earlier years of life, laying the foundation on which to build the future person." "To fully nourish a child," we are told, "the mother or nurse must furnish from 1,900 to 1,400 pounds of good milk during the first year of its life, and this must conlain from 125 to 140 pounds of solid matter —more than many women weigh," says Dr. Cool, who goes on to state that the nervous system contains as a constituent a phosphorized oil found in the yolk of an egg, in The human blood, and in butter and cream especially.—Shirley Dare's Letter. Vi

sile Made a Clock of It.

A clever woman who found herself with a large old fashioned watch as an heirloom preserved the relic and evolved a unique ornament for the mantelpiece. She had it mounted as a miniature grandfather's clock, made in every way like one of the tall ones seen iu niches on the staircase or iu the hail of most country houses. It was arranged so that it could be slipped in and out for winding. Once in its place again, however, its white face gave no evidence that watch works, not clockworks, were behind it. This may be an idea for somebody else.—Her Point of View in New York Times.

In several contributions to recent issues of the English electrical journals it is noticed that "henry" is being generally accepted as the name for the unit of inductance, as suggested by American electricians.
