There was no difference between the seeing ond the blind in perceiving the direction of sonid, no material difference in the distance at which sounds could be heard, but the seeing had greater senteness of smell, and a finer percep. tion of touch as tested by the rainimins distance at which two points could be distinguished as separate. The average blind, therefore, not only lack a sense but have other senses less acute than the seeing. The necessities of the blind compel them to heed slight impressions of touch and other sensations that are usually neglected by others, and this may account-in port at least, for the mysterions way in which they avoid obstacles.

An enterprising collector even transplanted some of the ants to an antless rogion some miles away, and the next year he was rewarded by finding that they had built hills, in each of which they had gathered 30 or 40

A kite station, with facilities for daily ascents of kites or balloons under almost all weather cou- ditions is the scientific novelty of the German Government on Lake Constance. A vessel of 350 hores-power, capable of 19 knots, provides the means for maling the ascents. To maken light wind effective, the vessel is run against it; and when a gale is blowing the force on the kito is reduced to safe working by running with the wind. The observations made are telegra. phed daily to the chief forecasting offlees.

It is easy for the full-pursed to solve the problem. Ail they have to do is to sally forth and secure something up-to-date from thir favourite tailor or millinor, prctably both. Their only difficulty is that of choice, and that is greatly helped by the sound advice of the Burtorial professors. They select a model to be copied for a tailor-made and choose the material. CHOYSANG, British str., 1,424, A., E.

BUT THEN THE OTHERS? However, it is not everybody who has a well filled purse, especially at this season of year, when fathers and hasbands have just emerged from the tax paying quarter with anemie balances at the bank. And how is the problem to be solved without that very agreeable posses- sion, ready cash? It is managed by thonmads and thousands of well-burnel-out English- women by the simple expedient of employing a home-drassmaker for a fortnight or three weeks. and placing in review before her the contents of the wardrobe, after having ascertained that her views on seevas and wrists; enats and skirts, are thoroughly up-to-date. Trus, the spare room will be a chaos of clothes during hor stay, and the whole house will be strewn with pins and snippings, but as each gown chergos, nowed in youth and immaculately up-to date. the owner says to horolf triumphantly: "Something to wear at last!"

Lightning is a huge electric spark following eracks in the atmosphore, is the interesting theory of Prof. A. W. Porter, an English. physicist.
