A few of the knots appear on the waist, giving it that necessary contrast which is the keynote to artistic dressing. Interests the Photographer. - The illustration shows the details of a photometer for comparing the relative values of a measured light with that prevailing where a picture is to be taken. Two dry batteries are connected with a small Incandescent lamp, which is located behind a translucent screen,, with means for varying the Intensity of the rays emitted by the filament of the lamp. ' Let us suppose that the light to be measured is projected against one side of the screen, with this lamp shining on the opposite side. If the measuring light causes the exposed face of the screen to glow or makes visible an opaque image or one less translucent than the screen, which is only visible when flight is transmitted through comparatively recent times. The pygmies of Silesia, for Instance, were contemporary with the Romans and they continued up to the tenth century. At present there is no vestige of such a race, but their skeletons remain to prove their existence. Measures the Power of Light Rays. the screen, it follows that the measur- ing light is stronger than the light outside of the photometer. Assuming this condition to exist, if the measuring light be gradually decreased its illuminating' effect upon the exposed face of the screen will gradually.fade away and eventually vanish. 4 When this vanishing point is reached it may be assumed that the light to bemeasStired is equal to that in the instrument, and the operator has only to look on his gauge which controls the power of the incandescent lamp to find the value of its light 'rays. .With- - the knowledge of this value it is an easy matter to adjust the diaphragm and time the exposure .of Eugene T.

Cook discussed Evolution in Coffee; its mutations described, and causes Coffee is the most imsuggested. portant crop grown from seed for the seeds. It has been in cultivation for about a thousand years, but the selection of varieties has not been practiced. Nevertheless, sports or mutations are rather frequent Where several such varieties from other parts of the world have been tested in the plantations of Guatemala ; the new Borts present great diversity in other respects, but agree in being less fertile than the parent stock in actual amount of weight of seeds. It is reasonable to associate this relative or complete sterility with the fact that coffee has been unintentionally inbred, new regions having usually been stocked from single trees. And it is further to be noted that reproductive debility is a general characteristic of other inbred domestic plants and of the , sports or mutations Which appear among them. It is suggested that both the sterility and the mutations may be due to the same cause, namely, to the absence of normal cross fertilization. This interpretation accords with what may be called a kinetic theory of evolution, under which evolution Is viewed as a physiological as well as a morphological process. Liquid Aid Power. The result of tests of a liquid air plant made at Cornell University, reported at the Pittsburg meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, Indicates that the expenditure of one horse power continuously for one hour results in the production of just enough liquid air to produce, if utilized in its turn as a source of power, Jn a perfect machine, one horse power for one minute. The experimenter adds that the most efficient method of obtaining liquid air as yet discovered would increase the time to only five minutes. Electrlo Sweating Robe. Among recent Inventions In medical apparatus is the sweating robe here 'illustrated with a picture taken from the Scientific American. It is for the treatment of such diseases as are susceptible to the influence of electricity applied in in the form of heat. The robe is made of two layers A resistance wire sewed together. arranged in zigzag folds Is Interposed between these layers. When la use tbe patient is wrapped in this robe, and a current of proper strength is passed through the resistance wire to Tiny Glove Handkerchiefs. " With the banishment of the pocket, handkerchiefs have diminished in size, until of late they are reduced to proportions which can be easily admitted into the palm of the glove. As e surely as the filmiest of shawls could be passed through a small finger ring, the handkerchief of the modern girl will go through a costume out of an old set of table- keyhole. New handkerchiefs are apcloth and napkins; but this new, love pearing with decorations printed in ly, shiny stuff must be kept for the tints, as well as in all over colored dining-room- . effects embroidered with white. old-tim- Noiseless and Smokeless Guns. An apparatus has lately been invented to suppress sound, smoke and An Costume. fire in guns. It consists essentially of costume shown is of The a steel tube made in compartments broadcloth trimmed with lace, strapclosed by partitions, these partitions pings of the cloth and silk cord and having orifices somewhat larger than the caliber of the firearm. This tube is fixed in front of the muzzle of. the gun by a bayonet clasp at the moment of firing. At other times it 'is detached and carried as a walking stick. It operates as follows: - While the projectile is engaged in the piece the gases from the powder spread in front of the muzzle and are arrested by the. first partition. As the projectile passes along the bore the gas is arrested in the same way and when the bullet leaves the piece there is so little gas remaining that there is no flame produced by its combustion. The gases, momentarily stopped by the partitions, escape successively and quietly without sound or smoke. The auxiliary tube weighs 700 grams, is 70 centimetres in length and can be armed with a knife at the end so as to serve as a bayonet It is fully described in France Militalre by M. Humbert, its Inventor. Fishing Reel of New Design. With the introduction of the new fishing reel presented in the picture below, one more excuse of the fisherman for not tending the biggest fish" has probably been removed, namely, the inability to take up the slack of the line with sufficient rapidity when the fish turns. It is claimed for this new reel that the spool can be rotated with great speed should the necessity arise, as it often does, and at the same time the hand which operates the reel can support a portion of the weight of the rod, which is Impossible with the crank reel now in common use.
