COLORS AND COLOR BLINONE.SS
the Thw» True I'rimnry Color* Are lteL Green, and Violet. Color blindnejis is a serions defect wherever found, says the United Service, It especially «o iu seafaring men arid in those employed on rail roads. Possibly it is less important in a soldier, although it ouu»t impair his tefficicncy materially Nor is it possible to repair the defect by education or study, appr Uy« for it is now generally agreed ,rt color Is due to sensa tion According- to Wurscli and Young the normal «ye has only three color sensations -a red, a frreu, and a violet —and the apparent color of any light which falls on it depends merely on the relative Intensities of the excitement produced by the light on the three organs of mttsc corresponding to these sensation,h
In color blindneas one or more of these organs of w»tjse is wanting or im perfect. The most common form. Daltonism. depends on the absence of the red wrise Prom the ex periments of Holmgren on two persons, each of whom wa* found to have one color-blind eye, the other beting nearly normal, it was found {what could otherwise have been only a matter of theory) that those persons could describe the various colors with one eye, but that there was a dead uniformity of color when looking with t'ie other eve. Thus was obtained a description of color-blind vision in terms of normal vision.
The old artiste considered that there really were three primary color sensation*—blue, yellow and red. But Holmholtz and Maxwell have now conclusively proved that the three primaries arc red, green and violet. Certain mixtures of violet and green can be made to give blue, which accounts for nearly half of the spectrum from the blue end, when combined, appearing of that color and red and green will also give a yellow—most mixtures, however, giving one of an orange shade
It is commonly imagined that blue and yellow mixed in certain proportions produce green. The true source of the green was pointed out by Heimholtz. It i.s the one color which is not freely absorbed either by the yellow or by the blue pigment.. The yellow pigment removes the greater part of the blue, indigo and violet rays the blue pigment removes the greater part of the red, orange and yellow. Thus the light which finally escapes is mainly green.
A FAMOUS WAR HORSE.
Demh of Old C(im uicli« of the Gnvernmmit Mrtnrlco. Word was recently received at Kansas City, Mo., of the death of Comanche, the most celebrated horse in the United States cavalry service, at Fort Kiley. Ho was forty-five years of age and the only living thing belonging to the United States service which escaped the massacre at the battle of the Little Uig Horn, wtysre (Jen. Custer and his command were massacred. He was one of the original mount of the Seventh cavalry, which regiment was organized in ISfKJ, and had been in almost every battle in the Indian service.
After the battle of Little ilig Morn he was found covered with wounds, riderless and saddleless, some distance from the scene of the massacre. He was taken charge of by ('apt. Rowlan and sent to Fort Kiley, where for fourteen years hi' lmd not been subject to bridle, and had been in charge of the Seventh cavalry. I lis death was due to old age. His skin will be stuffed and mounted and kept in the museum of the Kansas state university until the world's fair at Chicago, where it, will be taken for exhibition
Enterprising showmen have from time to time endeavored to secure Comanche for exhibition purposes, but the authorities have invariably refused to disturb his well-earned rest. Cmnauche wajUhe horse of CupL Keogh. a relative of (ten. Custer.

(JrsTfjTird Tree.
Tire yield of an apple tree in the St. George's cemetery verifies the superstition that all things grown in a graveyard are unfit to eat, says the Middletown Del.) Transcript. The fruit has a graveyard taste—so much so that swine will not touch it. When Benjamin- Raymond, a civil engineer on the Delaware fc Chesapeake canal, was buried in September, 1824, one of his fellow-craftsmen stuck an apple-tree switch in the ground alongside of the grave. A large and apparently healthy tree now marks the spot, the white fruit of which temptingly matures in August of each year The yield falls to the ground, and the only persons known to have even sparingly eaten of It are domestic "cowboys." whose sense of taste is not as acutely developed as that of the average human being When placed on the stove hearth to roast, this peculiar fruit simmers down to oil and emits an odor strongly suggestive of a graveyard Some time ago Mahala Dudley (colored), who lives near by, saw the fine-looking apples on the ground and asked if she could give some of them to her hogs. William 11Russum, the cemetery keeper, told her to help herself, and Mahala spent an afternoon in gathering four bushels and carrying them to her home. To her surprise, however, the swine not only refused to eat the fruit, but ran away from it. The disappointed woman tried in vain to make the hungry animals cat the burying ground yield, and the next day asked the donor If he had put a spell on "them apples." It is believed that the roots of the tree have become impregnated with deleterious matter, and to eat any quantity of the apples would cause sickness, if not death.
FIRING TORPEDOES.
Hotr Tlie«6 Knplne* of Attack Are Manipulated In the Nuv.r. Everybody is more or less familiar with the torpedo boat, states the New York Herald. These small craft will be restricted in their operations to harbor defense. It has been shown that they arc of little use at sea, bad weather rendering them unmanageable and exhausting their crews.
To utilize the torpedo more fully, therefore, larger vessels called "torpedo cruisers" have been built during the past few «years. Two of these ships— the Admirante Lynch and the Admirante Condell—recently rendered important service to the Balmaceda government by sinking the Blanco Encalada, the most formidable ship of the congressional party. The cruisers are 240 feet long, 27 feet beam, J1 feet extreme draught of water, with a displacement of 750 tons—a little smaller than the Vesuvius,
Each of these craft bus five discharging tubes—one in the bow and two on ach side. In such a ship a tube is frequently placed in the stern also. There Is a torpedo room for each tube, where the torpedoes are stowed in rings secured to the sides of the ship. They are swung into position for entering the tubes by means of tackles, overhead railways and traveling crones. The detachable head of the torpedo containing the charge of explosive is kept in a separate magazine well below the water lino for safety. After the torpedo Is swung iuto position ready for entering in the tube the head may be sent up and attached and the torpedo is then pushed into the tube by a rammer worked by steam or hydraulic power. Tho door of the tube is then closed and the torpedo is ready for firing
PREHISTORIC LIFE.
Rrmarkiblr Scientific ItlcliM In the Fo»»tt« of ThU Country. The phosphate deposits of this country, in addition to their immense commercial value, form a wonderfully rich field for the Investigation of the scientist. Their formation, says the Chicago Journal, undoubtedly extended through many ages- Fossils from the age of reptiles to the age of man are found Imbedded within them, and the history of the intervening periods is written in their strata as in a book. The great bulk of these deposits were formed of tho excrement of prehistoric animals, and largo quantities of the remains of the animals themselves are constantly brought tip by the miners.
The greater number of these animals belong to sjveies now extinct Remains of land sninvhis of every kind are found libnndanee Among the most remarkable of the evidences of the size of prehistoric an minis which these deposits aiToni are the remain* of sharks, which appear to have been partienleriy nnmerons. These are not the ordinary sharks of to-day, but fishes of enormous length. A thirty-f«K»t shark of the present time has a tooth half an inch long, but in these deposits thousands upon thousands of sharks' teeth are found which are over six inches in length.

In illustration of the time occupied In sending a telegram to and receiving answer from distant points, a somewhat curious and interesting statement is given in an account of the celebration at the opening of a new telegraph office in San Francisco recently, at which a large company of telegraphers was assembled. After showing the instruments, the superintendent said that he had often been asked how long it took to telegraph to different places and get a reply, and he proposed to answer the question then by actual demonstration. He thereupon wired an inquiry as to the weather to Portland, New York, Washington, SeatUe. Tacoma. Canso, N S.. and London.

THE SIZE OF AUSTRALIA. New South TT.-Ucs I.»rge as Ow Original Thirteen Co too Irs.
Among the tacit misconceptions into which distant critics are most likely to fall about antipodean affairs is that which is based upon ignorance of the enormous area and possibilities of the colonies, says Scribners Magazine. Especially is this likely in the United States, where the assumption may be that, as the population of Australia is about the same as that of the thirteen original seaboard colonies of America, the surface over which they are distributed is also approximately the same. As a matter of fact there is no such proportion.
New South Wales alone is as large as they were: Tasmania, the Rhode Island of Australia, is as large as that state with New Jersey, New Hampshire and Massachusetts added Victoria, the smallest colony of the continent, is equal in size to Great Britain Queensland surpasses the united areas of Austria, France and Germany South Australia, one-third greater than Queensland, is nearly, as large as western Australia, which of itself has nearly four times the extent of Texas, while the two colonies together are larger than the whole of Europe without Russia.
The seven colonies between them occupy a territory greater than that of the United States excluding Alaska. It is true that at present Australia has barely four million inhabitants, but these immense areas represent a potential population to which it is impossible to set bounds.
No part of the continent is so hot and so unhealthy as to forbid white settlement, and if the strip of low-lying coast lands in the north be omitted there is no part of it yet colonized in which Europeans cannot work.
Port Darwin, the country about the gulf of Carpentaria, and an indefinite belt toward the northwest, lie within the tropics, and are suitable for tropical productions but the high platotiu of northern Queensland, which run4pclose to the sea, is found thoroughly fcfljjthy for English miners and grazief jLnd enjoys a bracing winter. Th* #ack country, though waterless by ison with the Mississippi v* able to carry stock well ir/ sons, and with wells, tanki may be made to do so in all desert country of eastern Aj yet to be found.

A Tree with a UUtory.
One hundred years ago a Mr. Marr, of Cape Elisabeth, Me., set out a willow slip, which grew to be a good-sized tree. Mr. Marr was an obliging sort of person, and he kept his grindstone—one of the few in that vicinity—under the willow by the roadside for the convenience of his neighbors. Some of the neighbors were ungrateful yokels, for often, when they had done grinding their axes, they would try the blades upon the sheltering tree-, so that its beauty was spoiled and Its life endangered. Then Fanner Marr drove a lot of spikes into the trunk, covering the heads artfully with bark, and when the neighboring vandals had spoiled a few axes they qnit trying edges on the willow. Marr and his neighbors are all dead and forgotten these fifty years, but the willow still flourishes^ and the ax marks are obliterated, while the protecting spikes are grown deep In the heart of the great trunk-

ENGLISH. Very Strange
PecnlikrltlM of Tongue.
The peculiarities of Norfolk speech are many, sometimes not a little puzzling, says All the Year Round. Two negatives do not make an affirmative. "1 haven't no objections, ma'am, to what you say." Here is another frag1* ment of dialogue: "Flow do you do"—pronounced "dew" —"John, bor?" "Very well, I thank ye, Mary, mor."
What is "bor," and what is "mor?" we ask of etymologists and lexicographers. "Bor" is the vocative case singular of a defective noun, of which no other case. I believe, exists. We might call it an expletive, a redundancy, not knowing what other functions to assign to it. "Mor" is also the vocative singular of the nominative "mawther," a great girl, a young woman, a female hobby-de-boy. The mother of a sickly and fanciful daughter has been heard to say. "My mawther, she do nothin' but eat thapes and dotimans." Thapes are green gooseberries dodmans, snails.
Note the "do" in the previous example. The grammar of the Norfolk peasantry confounds the first person singular, present tense, indicative mood, with the third person plural of the same. Thus, they say: "My lord have iwerso much money, so he keep iwer so many sarvants and hosses, and drive about in a coach and four. My lady smile iwery time she speak to me. Tom Noddy, the coachman, live in of them there housen."
PARAGUAYAN IDEAS OF WORK. Phy-
A People Who Prefer Idleneaa to •leal Kxcrtlon.
A French gentleman who has recently organized a colony called Villa Sana, about twenty leagues northeast of Villa Conception, on land belonging to the Paraguayo-Argentine Land Company, told me, writes Theodore Child, in Harper's Magazine, that in the beginning, when he went to survey the ground and to ascertain its exact whereabouts—alwajTs a troublesome business in these countries, where there is as yet no topographical survey—he had the greatest difficulty in inducing half a dozen Paraguayans to accompany him. They told him that he would never find the land, that he would be unable to cross the river Aquidaban, and, in short, that his was a wild-goose chase. However, hen they arrived at the river, and the mchraan simply jumped in and swam across, their amour propre was touched, and they swam after him. These halfdozen Paraguayans have remained attached to the colony, but they have lost the esteem of their countrymen. When, after the exploring expedition, our Frenchman started from Villa Conception with his sixty colonists and his train of bullock carts and impedimenta, tl: loafers of the town said to the few Paraguayans who accompanied fcim and were helping him in the loading: "What? Are you as big fools as these Europeans, to work like that?"

Description of an Interesting Astronomical Phenomenon.
The curious and suggestive phenomenon of the fall of a solar protuberance into a sun spot has been recently reported by M. Trouvelot, the French astronomer. He was enabled to observe this fall very distinctly. The sun spot in which the protuberance was lost was very quiet, giving not the slightest evidence of any volcanic eruptions going on. There arc in or near a sun spot usually jets of incandescent Batter, frequently thrown up to great Jieights, but this voracious spot which swallowed up the protuberance in question was in almost entire repose. M. Trouvelot hints that the most probable explanation of this most mysterious phenomenon is that the class of spots which arc in a state of repose exercise some kind of attraction upon certain protuberances. These solar clouds, sometimes filamentary, sometimes diffuse, sometimes seen to be gyrating like a cyclone, are composed mainly of hydrogen and helium. Around the spot the motion of filaments is usually inward toward a central spot and then downward. It might, therefore, be supposed that the prominence seen by M. Trouvelot approached the spot by aspiration.
THE JOURNALS OF CANADA.
A Pleanant Summary of Canadian Newspaper* by a Canadian Writer.
The generality of Canadian newspapers in their style, says Walter Blackbum llarte, a Canadian journalist, in the New England Magazine, are a curious mixture of English and American methods. In the news department they are very similar to the newspapers in the smaller American cities, and in the editorial columns they are modeled »ftor the English provincial papers. Except in one or two Instances, they are destitute of all pretentions to literary excellence. The Toronto Mail and Globe maintain a higher standard than any of their contemporaries. The Gazette of Montreal and the Empire of Toronto are almost exclusively political in their scope, and exist as the organs of the conservative party. The western papers have little room for anything outside of news and politics. The Montreal Star is always on the popular side of every question. The Ottawa papers, like those of Washington, carry little weight and are miserable in every particular. The French Canadian newstapers are less enterprising and energetic in the gathering of news than the English, but their editorial columns are usually more striking In a literary way.

Care of ITamttnr#.
Furniture can be kept looking nice with so little care that it is too bad to deny it this little, yet, with the exception of the usual dusting now and then, it seldom gets any better in the majority of homes. Very ordinary articles of furniture may with care be kept looking well for years, while handsome furniture may by neglect be made to appear dingy and worn out long before its time.
Upholstered furniture that is in everyday use should be cleansed thoroughly once a month At least. The articles, with the exception of the very heavy ones, should be taken into the yard, or room with open windows, choosing a day when the wind is uoi. in the direction to blow the dust into the room. Take each article to the open window or in the J'ard, and with a bristle brush clean one as much dirt as possible. The above, to be sure, is only for such as are upholstered in plush or any goods with a pile.
To clean Jmlrcloth, take into 'the air, if possible, and with a light switch beat out the dust, afterward wiping the dust from the surface with a damp cloth. Wipe over the woodwork with a damp cloth, and if there are any dents in it, place over them several thicknesses of wet blotting paper, and to this hold a warm flatiron until the paper is dry unless tho dent is a very deep one, this one trial will remove it.
When the woodwork is thoroughly dry, take some warm linseed oil, and with a soft flanuel cloth rub it well into the woodwork, using a very little oil and a good deal of strength. Rub it over with a soft silk cloth or chamois leather to obtain a nice polish.—Housekeeper's Weekly.
Sleep In Sicklies*.
Concerning sleep, in conncctiou with sickness, there is a good deal of heresy regarding the matter among otherwise well Informed people. "Don't let her sleep too long!" "Be sure to wake him when it is time to give the medicine it will be a great deal better for liini not to sleep too long at one timel" How often we have heard those words, or words to that effect, when, in fact, in nine cases out of ten, and very likely in ninety-nine cases out of the hundred, they were the exact opposito of the truth. Gentle, restful sleep is better than any medicine and how often—even how almost invariably—does tho "change for the better," for which anxious friends are waiting so prayerfully, come during sleep, making its first manifestation when the patient awakes with brightened eye,strong er voice, a faint tinge of returning health mantling the features iu place of tho wan hue of threatening death.
In the words of Sancho Panza, we may all say, "Blessed be the man who invented Bleep!" There are, of course, critical situ ntions in which a troubled, imperfect sleep may properly be broken to administer medicines, but in these later days physicians quite generally give tho caution that in case of restful sleep the patient is not to be awakened for the administering of niedi cines.—Good Housekeeping.
The Danger* of Belladonna.
Belladonna is said to have taken its name from the use pretty women make of it to improve their complexions and make themselves prettier stilL There Is great danger attending its use for that purpose, greater even than with arsenic, which Is more frequently used with similar intent. A belladonna iiend is not often met with, but I have bad some to treat, and the work fs far from pleasant, owing to the terrible smell the breath acquires when the system becomes impregnated with the drug. The homeopaths use belladonna quite freelyr but only in infinitesimal doses, when it seems to have a decided effect.
As is the case with all drugs, it becomes necessary to Increase the dose after the system becomes habituated to its use, and many a flend will take more belladonna in a day than a disciple of Hahnemann would prescribe in a month. Before the inevita blc and horrible final result of the habit the fiend suffers untold agonies and becomes nervous to a degree bordering on insanity, besides perspiring in the coldest weather like a man who has been running up a.steep hill in August. I never met a man who was addicted to the habit, and most ot the fiends are women.—Interview with a Doctor.
Bdaeatfon Does Not Injure. Writing of women college graduates, somebody inquires, "What do they know of domestic ecomony?" Many of tbem know a great deal about it, much more than they oould had they not been st college. A large proportion of the students In such schools were home assistants before they went to college, and were not ashamed to say that they could prepare a meal, make a bed, sweep a floor and keep house tolerably well.—-Housekeeper.
