A curious telephone complaint has developed in Cape Colony. White streaks appeared on an iron roof under two wires, and it was demanded that the wirus be removed and a new roof placed on the building. One of the many theories wen that the deposit was salt collected by the wire from the sea-winds, Investigation, kowever, showed that the roof was intact, sud that the powder was nearly pure silics. Fine and blown upon the damp wires bad afterwards falles to the roof and adhered.
The sun proves to be undergoing a continual From measurements at change of shape. Gottingen during thirteou years, Dr. C. L.

Goud photographs of the interior of the eye taro been much desired by oculists. In bis efforts to supply the need, Dr. Walther Thorger, of Berlin, first photographed sate' oyes, which much lighter then human eyes, but, good pictures of the latter are now obtained by means of the improved apparatus which has resulted from his experiments. The back of the eye is carefully focused on the photographic plate with at light. The camera is opened by a special lover, and the eye is lighted up for a moment by a flash-light composition ignited by a spark from a storage battery, The pictures show distinctly the differences between healthy and unsmod eyes, making it possibis to watek the progress of disease.
Spiders are not always solitary creatures, . S. Jazzbunathan has lately recorded the find log in Southern India of a species of Stegody phas that builds spongy nests with outlying webs, each nest being occupied by 4 to 100 spiders, with a large excess of females. Sometimes fl or six nests are elustored together. The spiders not only live andl work together, but they share with one another any prey that may be captured, and some even show maternal affection- approaching self-sacrifice. It appears that there are other social species of the same genus, the first known having been reported fron Zouth Afries,
Disappearing paper is a Frouch novelty. Ordianry paper is first stoepet in sulphuric acid, dilated according to the intended durability, and is then dried and glazed, the acid being partially neutralized by ammonia repour. The material is adapted for temporary dee. Bosner or later it falls to pieces, however, and it is recommended to those whose correspondents forget to burn their letters..
Electric waves follow the earth's curvature, explains Ersking-Murray, a Bentch engineer, b-cause a conducting layer light in air keeps them, from spreading into space, practically causing them to travel between two parallef conducting planes.
A new insulated wire, intended to replacs silk-covered or cotton-covered wires for stoctro- magnets for small currents, is being produced in Berlin, and has quite remarkable proportion. The coating material, giving a continuous covering, essentially tetra-acetic esllalone. It is appled in natuerous costs by a special machine, is both flexibin and durable, bas raat alasticity and solidity, is moisture-proof and is not affected Ly temperatures up to 300 degree F. Its in- sulation resistance is so high that a thickness of 0.0009 inch is broken down only by a tension of 1.500 volts. Wires ranging in size from 0.0026 to 1.000 inch are made, and a coil of given size contains much more wire than the ortuary coil, the noaling being so much thinner than the double or triple silk or cotton with the additional layer of shellac.
Au attempt at quantativo measurement of colour, designed to show just how red or bow bloo anything may be, has been made by Joseph W. Lovibond, who has published a book on the subject in London. Be the superposition of glass standart colour-scales, in a special instra- meat for excluding ell extraneous light, the amber of units of red and yellow-or any other combination-necessary match a giran colour can badetermined. The glass test slides have been prepared with great scoarasy, standard and invariable chemist solutions being employed for the colours, with precautions us to thickness and temperature, and the graduations
are equal.
The scallest trip'e expansion engine in the wurid is claimed to be a perfect working model made by Robert Bunge, of New York. It messures 3 inches across the bedplate and 3 inches from the bottom of the bed plate to the top of the cylinder covers. Even link reversing. ation is not omitted.
