Artificial Respiration By Ice.
A new and remark-able method of artificial respiration is described in a
French journal by Dr. Berthold Beer,
The mucous membrane of the lips and
mouth is ruboed slowly with a piece of
ice, the rhythm of the motion corresponding as much as possible to that of
normal respiration. In the cases observed by Dr. Beer the result was a
return of respiration, very strong at
first, but with continued application
of the ice, becoming very regular,quiet
and deep. The ice, moreover, is said
to have a general sedative effect, and
to have been successfully employed in
cerebral troubles. Two cases of asphyxia have peen treated in this way
by Dr. Foges, of Vienna, with equal
success. The method is harmless for
the patient and easy for the physician,
so that it may be employed for several
hours ata time.
Tho Peacock's Peer,
Every one has road and heard that a
peacock's feet are ugly, and that the
bird is so conscious of it that it invariably tries to hide them when itfinds that
it is observed. This belief is not of
modern origin, for it is to be found in
ancient writings and in works as old aa
the classical Greek and Latin and in
old fables. It has been recorded as an
ornithological truth by writers from
time immemorial, and even at the present clay it is to be found in books that
are considered "standard works on natural
history. This constant reiteration of
something thathas no foundation in fact
is simply an illustration of how some
writers will take as an accepted fact-
the assertions of some other writers who
have gone before them and not exercise
their own judgment and eyes. The assertion that peacocks .have ugly feet is
arrant nonsense, as any ono can see if
they will -examine tho next bird they
see. The feet are slightly larger than
those of a turkey, but' aro well proportioned and small for the *aza of the
bird.
The popular misconception regarding
this bird's feet undoubtedly arose from
the fact that the peacock, being by nature a wild bird, is apt to drop its "beautiful fan tail to the ground behind him
and scuttle away- as rapidly as possible
The dropping of the tail, of course, hides
the feet, and the impression is conveyed
to the ignorant or unthinking that the
bird is trying to hide hia feet.—St
Louis Post-Dispatch.
TRAINED CATS.
The Feats  a  Showman  In  England Hai
Taught Them, to Do.
A showman in England, Clarke by
name, has succeeded in training a large
number of cats to perform remarkable
tricks. One of these is to walk over a
long line of living rats, mice and canaries, stepping very carefully between
the fluttering little bodies of birds and
mice and ha*?*aing none of them. Another cat climbs by a rope to the roof,
seizes the handle of a parachute and descends by it to the ground from a considerable height.
Mr. Clarke repeats what is well
known—that the cat is the most difficult
of animals to train to the performance
of tricks. He has trained bears, lions,
leopards, tigers and other wild animals
and finds them teachable and submissive
when compared with cats. The cat indeed can never he so far conquered that
her performances mayj^e depended on.
Mr. Clarke's entertainment includes
only 30 trained cats, but he has to take
with him 60, in order that he may have
substitutes for those that will not perform.
He calls the cat a ' 'hopeless bundle
of sensibilities." Strike her once, though
only by accident, and she will never
perform again. Kindness is not only
politic, bnt absolutely necessary. Some
of his cats it took him four years of
ceaseless effort to train.
Mr. Clarke's cats are extremely fond
of him. "When he enters his "cat stable," the mewing is prodigous, and he
is instantly buried in a moving mantle
of cats.
The difficulty in the cat's training
does not lie in the animal's intelligence,
but in her disposition. She is as clever
in her tricks, if she likes to do them, aa
a dog, but she does not wish to subordinate her will to that of any living
creature. Sho does what she wants to
do only and will perform, if she perform
at all, only to please herself.
Those that have seen cats engaged in
boxing matches will not be surprised to
learn that Mr. Clarke has succeeded in
training two cats to box very scientifically.
The animals that walk over the chains
of rats, mice and ■ canaries without
touching them are only six in number.
Any of the others would help themselves
to these appetizing creatures without
compunctions. These six were brought
up from their earliest infancy in cages
with rats, mice and birds and live with
them constantly.—Youth's Companion.
Held by a Hair.
In a gathering of. officers after the
Franco-Prussian war a French officer
claimed that the French nation is the
most artistic nation on the earth, and
that her artisans can make a thing of
beauty out of anything, however ordinary or crude.
The great Prussian general, Von Man-
teuf el, who was present, plucked a hair
from his shaggy beard, remarking, "Let
them mate something beautiful out of
that."
The Frenfjli officer sent the hair to a
friend in Paris, telling him the circumstances and urging that, as the Prussians had defeated the"Frenchinthelate
war, they should not be permitted to
defeat them in the claim to artistic supremacy. Giving the hair to a capable
artisan, with proper instructions, the
result was a beautiful scarfpin representing a Prussian eagle, artistically
•wrought in gold, standing on a rock,
and depending from his beak was a single hair, at the ends of which were two
beautiful gold medallions, on one of
which was inscribed "Alsace" and on
the other "Lorraine."
Thus the artistic scarfpin aptly described the political situation: Prussia,
as the eagle, with its conquered provinces dependent, but held by a hair, for
the temper of the people of Alsace and
Lorraine was bitter toward the Germans, and the tie which held them was
very slight.
Tlie "Bicycle and the Corset.
Tho Paris correspondent of the London Truth says that the long vexed question of the corset is in a way to be settled once and for all. Neither doctors
nor rational dress reformers will earn
the credit of the change, thanks being
due to the cycle only. Cycle tailors and
trainers in Paris are dead set against the
corset.
' 'There's no answering for yonr safety,
madame," says the trainer, "if yon
must go on keeping your conventional
fignre. Tou need every muscle in your
body and every muscle free. A oeinture
just deep enough to sustain the waistband of your "snicks (knickerbockers,
pronounced "kneeks") is all I can allow yon. Indeed the knicks should he
so light as hardly to weigh on the hips.
The cycling dress should be so light and
elastic that in wearing it one should
scarcely feel dressed were it not for the
warmth."
"We look in Paris on a jajown wearing
woman on a cycle as a sprawling cari-
catural creature, with no sense of fitness.
