Mythical Creatures.

Now that the cold ligui of science has thrown its ray upon the most remote parts of or.r globe, there is l.o longer room for le.~eudnry creatures— save the sea serpent—and we are told

that the mermaid is nothing more tlir.n a dngoug, a nniccrn either a rhinoceros or a Tibetan autelep?, while the cockatrice, the phoenix aud the roo appear to be pure imaginations.

But in the Elizabethan age—an nge

when the dodo had but recently been discovered these, ami maiy other mythical creatures were, if not, iiviug, at all events actual realities to the ordinary public, and as such were* referred to iu the \vor! of the great dramatist and other contemporary writers. We meet, for instance, in the "Winter's Yale" the line, "Make me not sighted like the baailisb," aud in "The Tempest," "Now I will believe that there are unicorns." But not only was more or let^s credulity given to the existence of these and such like fabulous monsters, but a web of mystic lore encircled the most common aud best known of beasts, birds and fishes. Who, for instance, is forgt tfnl of the popular superstiticiv* conuceted with the salamander, the newt and the blind worm, and who failj to remember White's ucconnt cf the "shrevrash" at :£elbor:ie? And if such superstitions still survive among uneducated vcasuutscf the present day we may be assured ti :.t two centuries tb were fully believed by the higher classe.i. —Nature.

Coffee a Disinfectant.

The nse of coffee as a disinfectant is generally known, but it is doubtful if the majority cf people are aware of its true value in this direction. They probably know that it is handy and harmless, but besides these qualities it i9 really one of the most powerful aud effective agents known, as has been shown by repeated experiments. Iu one case a quantity of meat was placed in a close room and allo vcd to decompose. A chafing di was then introduced aud 500 grams of coffee weie thrown on the fire. In a few minutes the room had been entirely disinfected. In a11 other room the fumes of sulphureteu hydrogen ami ammonia were developed and the eu il—which no words can expicss—was destroyed iu half a minute by the use cf DO prams of ccffee. A a proof that the ncxious smells are really decomposed and not merely overpowered by the fuuies of coffee, it is stated that the first vapors of the coffee are no' Ftnelled at ail and are therefore chemically absoibed, while the other smells gradually diminish as the fumigation continues. The merest, "pinch" of coffee is usually uCicieut to cleanse a sickroom, even in aggravated cases. The best vay 11 employ it i9 to fre=hly pound the ce.ffee iu a mortar, if no i"Ll is at 'land, and sprinkle it on a redhot iron surfaec —New York Ledger.

Earth Movements,

Professor Joseph Le C'onte recently read a raprr before ti:e Geological Society of America, from which we leain that there are two primary and perini. urut kinds ef movements of the earth's crust—nam !y, those which cause continental su'laces and oceanic basins and those w.,ieh by interior contraction determine mountains of folded structure. These two are determined, the o.ie by unqual radial contraction, the other by unequal concentric contraction —that is, contraction of the interior more thau t'ie exterior. There are also two secouuary kinds of movement which mou.fy the effects of the other two aud cor 'use our understanding of them These arp, first, oscillatory movemcLts,

affcfii:g

't*

large areas, and isos-

tatic movements, or gravitative readjustments, by erosion and sedimentation. Iu th minds of some writers oscillatory movements have masked and obscured the effects cf continent ano ocean basin making, and isostasy ba concealed the effects aud prevented tb proper interpretation cf all the others It is believed that to make secure prog ress we must keep these several kind« cf mr vements distinct in our minds.— San Francisco Chronicle.
