Fish that live at very great dc tbs have either no eyes at all or cnormo y big ones. Ip- dccd, there are two we a you may get on in these gloomy abysses, y delicate-touch or- or by s‘ght that collects the few rays of light due to phosphorescence or other accidental sources. Now as we go down in the water We find at each depth that the efi'ects produced upon the eyes of fish are steadily progressive in one direction or the other. Species that live at a depth of ei hty fathoms have the! eye already a good eal big or than their nearest representatives that 've at or near the surface. Down to the depth of 200 fathoms where daylight disappears, the eyes get constantly hi 1 er and bigger. lie. yond that depth sma beyed forms sot m, with long feelers developed to supplement the eyes. Sight, in fact, is here begmmng to atrophy. In the greatest abysses the fish are mostly blind, feeling their way about entirely by their sensitive bodies alone over the naked surface of rock at the bottom. Some of them have still external relics of functionless eyes; in others, the oldest and most confirmed abysmal species, the eye has altogether disappeared external- ly, though its last representative may still be recognized imbedded deep in the tissues of the head. But many deep-sea fish have a curious system of hollows in the skull or along a zinc on the body which secrete mucus or Ilimc, and this slime often envelops them com- pletely, as in a sheet of jelly, from-head to tail. Strange so say, it is phosphoreseent. Moreover, many other deep-sea species have two sets of organs buried in their skin, can- Jisting of round, shining, opalescent bodies, One sort are large and oval, and are placed on the head not far from the eye ; the other kind are smaller and arranged in a series along the body and tail, a pair usually answering to each joint of the backbone. All of them are abundantly supplied with nerves, and. they seem to be organs for the production and perhaps also for the per- ception of phosphorescent light. If so, we may suppose that each such fish goes about like a string'of glow worms or a train of lighted cars, all the organs alon his side or tail shining faintly in the dar , some- ,what after the fashion of luminous paint. Dr. Gunther suggests that in certain cases the phos horescence may be produced in a sort of ack chamber of the organ, and then emitted in particular directions through the lens in front, precisely as a policeman flashes his bull’s-eye on any point. V“ THE KOLA NUT. Very Closely resembling morther‘Of‘Peafl' ry is rubbed clean with a soft linen cloth, Ill. ,hy‘uoiiii‘é fourteen feet ' ' " ck, is taken up into the clouds. The wn ds hear their burdens into the land, and the water comes down in rain the fields, to flow back at last through rivers. The depth of theaea presents an interestin pro- blem. If the Atlantic Were lo for 6,564 feet, the distance from shore to shore would be half as great, or 1,500 miles. If lowered a little more than three miles, say 19,680 feet there would he a road of dry land from Newfoundland to Ireland. This is the plan on which the great At- lantic cables were laid. The Mediterranean is comparatively shallow. A drying up of 660 feet would leave three different seas, and Africa would be joined with Italy. The British Channel is more like a pond, which accounts for its choppy waves. It has been found diflicult to get the correct soundings of the Atlantic. A midshipman of the navy overcame the difficulty, and a. shot weighing thirty pounds carried down the line. A hole is bored through the sinker, through whicha rod of iron is passed, moving easily back and forth. In the end of the bar a cup is dug out and the inside coated with lard. The bar is made fast to the line and a sling holds the shot on. \Vhen the bar, which extends below the ball, touches the earth, the sling unhooks and the shot slides off. The lard in the end of the bar holds some of the sand, or whatever may be on the bottom,\and a drop shuts over the cup to keep the sand in. 'When the ground is reached a shock is fclt, as if an electric current had passed through the line. Rust in Machinery. To avoid rusting of machinery a mechanic as. s he takes one ounce of camphor and dis- so ves in a pound of melted lard, takin off the scum, and mixing in as much fine b ack lead as will give it color. The machinery is then cleaned and smeared with this mix- ture. After twenty-four hours the machin- and it will keep clean for months. The same artisan gives the following method of hardening tools : For e the tool in shape, then melt in a dish su cient Babbitt metal to cover the end of the tool as far as it is wished to harden it. Thrust the tool into the metal and let it cool. This method makes the tool much harder than cooling in oil or tempering by any other process. How to Become Rosy-Checked Women The political battle is over, but the bat- tle with disease must be constantly and un- ceasingly waged else the grim reaper will come out victorious, and loved ones will be gathered to their long home. On all sides may be seen pale and listless girls who should be enjoying the health and glow of rosy youth. Everywhere we are met with women young in years, yet prematurely old, who suffer in silence almost untold agonies, the result of those ailments peculiar to the female system.

The cure of Consumption is' not a miracle, now. I Dr. Pierc‘e’s Golden Medical Discov- ery will cure it, if taken in time and given a fair trial. This world‘renowned remedy will not make new lungs, but it will restore diseased ones to a healthy state when other means have failed. Thousands gratefully , testify to this. It is the most potent tonic, or strength-restorer, alterative, or blood- cleanser, and nutritive, or flesh-builder, known to medical science. For Weak Lungs, Spitting of Blood, “ Liver Complaint,” and Dyspepsia, 6r Indigestion, it is an unequaled remedy. ' It costs the Americans about $1,000,000 8. year to plug their teeth. ' ‘ Thereby Hangs a Tale. “And so, from hour to hour, we ripe and ripe, And then, from hour to hour, we rot and rot, And thereby hangs a tale.” And truly, “ 'tis a tale of woe,” of onewho had Catarrh in the Head, for many years, and who really had been “ rotting,” from hour to hour, until Dr. Sage’s Catarrh Re- medy came to his notice. He used it at first with slight signs of relief, but he persisted until a permanent cure was effected, and the world was again pleasant to live in. From his awful suffering he was set free by the ex- penditure of a few dollars in that incompar- able remedy. A clock owned by a resident of Trappe, Pn., has ticked since 1766. Death in March “’Inds. Poets and novelists go into ecstasies over what they romantically call “ beautiful spring,” and “gentle spring,” and while, no doubt, every one is glad to see winter release its icy rasp, “beautiful spring ” i5, after all, one o the most deadly seasons of the year. Sudden transitions from warmth to extreme cold, with piercing, chilling winds ; from dry to sloppy, “ muggy " weather, all combined to make the season a most trying one, even to the hardiest consti- tution, while to those with weak constitu- tions the season is one of positive danger. Undoubtedly the greatest danger at this sea- son of the year is from cold in the head, which very few escape, and which if not promptly and thoroughly treated, developes into catarrh, with all its disagreeable and loathsome effects. Catarrh, neglected, almost as certainly developes into consumption, an- nually destroying thousands of lives. At this trying season nohousehold should be without a bottle of Nasal Balm. In cases of cold in the head it gives almost instant relief and effects aspeedy cure, thus preventin the development of catarrh. Where the Tatter equally efficacious, and with persistent use will cure the worst case. From the outset it sweetens the breath, stops the nauseous dropping into the throat and lungs, dispels those dull headaches and afflict the sufferer from catarrh. Nasal Balm is not advertised as a cure-allâ€"it is an honest remedy which never fails to cure cold in the head or catarrh when the directions are faithfully followed, and thousands throughout the country have reason to bless its discovery. Nasal Balm may be had from all dealers or will be sent post-paid’on receipt of price (50 cents, small, or $1, large size bottle)‘ by ad- dressing Fuliord & .00., Brockville, Out.
