In the House of Lords it is easier to accept the dictum of Mr. Jenkins, author of the once-celebrated "Ginx'x Baby, that it is a problem in nature why noble caris should be so ugly.

POPULAR SCIENCE.
Democritus taught as early as 438 B. C., that the milky way consisted of stars fact which was proved by Galileo, 1610-43.
The first telescope of Galileo was made from part of a lead organ-pipe, in each end of which was cemented a suitable spectacle glass.
The substitution of wood pulp for plaster of Paris in the manufacture of all kinds of building ornaments is constantly increasing under the new method brought forward in France.

The calculations of a recent writer on the sub- ject show that an enormous amount of vegetable matter is required to form a layer of coal, it being estimated that it would inke not less than 1,000,000 years to form a bed of coal 100 feet thick. The area of the coal-fields of the United States is between three hundred and four hundred thousand square miles, which is a, quantity sufficient to supply the entire world for a period
of
2,000 years. One million tons of coal are taken from theso beds every year.
At the last congress of German naturalists and physicians, held in Wiesbaden, Dr. Gucy reported several cases of mental disturbance, characterized by an impossibility of fixing the attention on any subject, except for a very brief period, or of prolonged mental effunt of any kind whatever. This condition, to which the author gave the name of aproxia, was always associated with certain lesions of the nasal mucous mem- brane and obstruction to the passage of air through the nasal fosse.
Since the opening of new artesian wells in the Desert of Sahara, a large increase, in the number of palm and other, fruit trees -bas taken place. The borings made since 1881, however, show a diminution in the yield of water, and it is probable that the limit of the capacity of the veins found at the usual depth has been reached. The walls sunk by the | French have a much smaller bore than those of the Arabians, and owing to the difficulty of cleaning them when stepped up by the sand, It has been decided to give the new" wells a much larger calibre.

The Patent Office Gazette, although drier HE MAN ON INSURANCE COMPANY, P reading, than a legal brief, is nevertheless interesting as an index of the extraordinary inventive power of the American mind. The annual report of the Commissioner, just published, shows the number of applications during 1887 to have been 35,613, and the number of patents issued to be 27,477 The aggregate of laventors annually asking for protection has varied but slightly during the past five years, but during the ten years prior to 1882 the inventive growth was very marked. The Patent Office is one of the best paying branches of the Govern ment service, and ought, for this reason if for no other, to be provided with better facilities than It seems now.to
