But in the millions edyears which geOlOgy barked. us busk it might safely be rebid there Must lia.ve been great changes. How had the solar fires been maintitined daring those ages? The scientific answer to this question was the theory of Helmboltz, that the sun wits a vast globe gradually cooling, but, es it cooled, shrinking, and that the shrinkage— wleich was the effect of gravity •upon its enaes—kept it e temperature. The total 9f the sun's heat was equal to that which would be required to keep up 176,000 mil- lions of millions of millions horse power, or about 78,000 horee power for every square meter—a little more than a square yard— and yet the modern dynamical theory 9f heat shows that the sun's mass would require only to fall in or contract thirty-five meters per annum to keep up that tremen- dous energy. At this rate the solar radius in 2,000 years' timo would be about oos- hundredth per &mt. less than at present. 'time would come when the temperature would fall, and it was thus inconcetirable that the sun would continue to emit heat' sufficient to suetahi existing life on the globe for more than 10,000,000 years. Applying ; the same principles xetrospectively, they could not suppose that the sun had existed for more than 20,000,000 years—no matter what might have been its origin—whether it came into existence from the clash of worlds pre-existing, or of disused nebeilous matter. There was a great clinging by ,geologists and biologists to vastly longer periocls,but the physicist, treating it as a dynamic ques- tion with calculable elements, could come to no other conclusion materially different from what he had stated. Sir William Thomson declined to discuss any chemical source of heat, which whatever its effect when primeval elements first came into contact, was absolutely insignificant compared with the effects or gravity after globes like the sun and the earth had been termed. In all the speculations, they were in the end. driven to the ultimate elements 1 of matter—to the question, when they thought what became of all the sun's heat, what is the luminiferous ether tbat MIs space? and to that most wonderful form of force upon which Faraday spent so much of his later years—gravity. Sleep Necessary. The present epoch is one in which the mind of man seems to turn to the perform- f ance of impossibilities, or what have been , regarded as impossibilities.

Let any one look over the files of old news- papers and compare them evith those of the esent and he will see whether things are all going to the bad. The fact of the matter is that the change which has taken place in the discussion of political questions and in conducting a political election is as marked as it is gratifying. There may be still much which needs to be improved. But it is shnply foolish misrepreeentiition to say that party spirit and violent political brutality and corruption are now about at their worst. People ought to be ashamed to talk in such a fashion. It only shows how ignorant °and thoughtless they are. That is all. Twenty or thirty years ago such a contest as that of the 22nd of last month would have been characterized by any number of free fights, broken heads, un- blushing and shameless bribery, and beast- ly, if not all but universal, debauchery. No. The people of Canada may not be all they ought to be in politics or in religion either, but they are better and more reason- able than their fathers were.

The t prevailing theory as to its natpre is that of the physiologist Preyer, who bolds that re- fuse matter accumulates in the nervous centers in such quantity as to bring about insensibility, which is sleep, and which continues until the brain has been reliev- ed of this waste matter by its absorption into the circulation. By way of contrast the case of those who seek to do without sleep,. or are often unable to obtain it, a case is recorded by Dr. Phipson in which a young man slept thirty-two hours with- out waking. A Female Politician, Though England does not permit women to vote, she cannot prevent them from in- fluencing voters. Lord Randolph Churchill owes a part of his success before the electors to the exertions of his wife, and to other ladies of the Primrose League. One hundred years ago, at the famous Westminster election, which lasted six weeks, Fox was re-elected, against the op- position of the King and of Mr. Pitt, through the exertions of several of the first women of England. They divided West- minster into districts, and worked from morning till night for Fox. Their leader was Georgina, Duchess of Devonehire, known as the tueen of the Wings. She went freely among the penple often filling her carriage with voters, whom she carried to the polls to vote for Fox. Her beauty fascinated them. "God bless you, madam' I could light my pipe at your eyes," cried an enthusiastic Irishman. "Devon's key seduced a blacksmith's vote," writes Bulwer Lytton, referring to the fact 'that the Duchess purchaseed a, vote with a kiss to a blackernith, who would take no other bribe. , The NVOrnan who called out such compli- xnents was more than beautiful. She would stop her carriage, to enter some miserable hovel with liberal help and gentle words. Taking refuge from a storm in a cottage near Chiswick, one of her residences, she mired if her hostess knew the Duchess of Devonshire. , "Enow her 1" was the reply. "Ay, every. body IIIIOWS her. There never was a better lady horn." "I am afraid you are Mistaken," said the Duehess., Frail "what cen understand, she is no better then she should "1 eee Idea are nO better than yott sbuld be," ieturned the woman, angrily.

VARIETIES. Crescent-sbaped iron knives are used as currency by many African tribes south of the Soudan. As a rule, a rough diamond loses seventy- five per cent. of its weight in cutting and polishing, if it is to be turned out in the most effective manner. The common cabbage and connuon turnip belongs to the same family, and are, so to speak, first cousins. The wild cabbage grows all over Europe—in great plenty about Mount Athos, in Turkey. On New Year's Day, at Hastings, apples, nuts, oranges, et-etetera, as well as money, are thrown out of the windows to be scramb- • led for by the fisher boys and men, The custom appears to be ancient, The Irish poplin trade is in the hands of three flims, all of them being in Dublin. The industry employs about four hundred persons. Poplin costs about the sane 08 ordinary silk; but it will outwear three silk dresses. Poplin makes remarkably good "silk" for barristers and judges. The salt that is contained in solution in the Dead Sea is a government monopoly. If Arabs or the natives of the country are found getting salt from the shores of the Dead Sea, they are arrested et once. Most of the salt used in Hebron, Jerusalem, and elsewhere in this pert of Palestine comes from these sources, but it is gathered under the direc- tion of government officers and the revenue is supposed to go to the government. M. Volk ens describes a remarkable adapta- tion of means to an end in the case of some ' Egntian desert plants, such as reaumureie tamarix, &c. In these plants a number of glandular hairs are produced in little basin- . like depressions on the leaves. These glandu- lar hairs secrete a bitter crystalline sub- stance which exudes and covers the whole surface of the leaf. During the night this saline matter attracts the dew -and moisture from the atmosphere, and the plant becomes saturated with moisture. The Duty of Teachers and School Boards. The habit of smoking, so prevalent among young men, has for some time claimed at- tention from boards of education and true - tees. In many schools supported by govern- ment, both in our own country and abroad, the use of tobacco in any form has been strictly prohibited. We notice with pleas- ure that the faculty of Denison University, Grandville, Ohio, has recently made an earnest appeal to the students of that su- perior institution to discontinue the use of tobacco,and assign the following just reasons for so doing. 1. Its use involves an expense which neither you or your parents can afford. 2. It is harmful to yonr physical organiz- ation, especially to the brain and nervous system; peculiarly so during the growiug period of life, and most of all, When used in the form of a cigarette saturated with poi- sonous drugs. 3. Its use renders the person and clothing of those who use it offensive mad °fret dia. gusting to persons of unperverted sensibili- ties, while it so blunts the perceptive facul- ties of those habituated to its use as to ren- der them unconscious of their' offensiveness, and thus unfits them for good society. 4. By its narcotic effects on the brain and nervous system it prevents the best results of study and the highest attainments in in- tellectual development. 5. It tends to draw those who use it into the companionship of persons of low and vulgar tastes and vicious habits. 6, le will be a bar to the hest success in 'honorable pursuits in mature life and to the highest usefulness. 7. The habit in a short time acquires such strength that it is one of the most despotic, holding its victims with a relentless grasp. How to Cure Fear. Fear is a had habit often formed in child- hood, and continued in a chrome form dar- ing life. It is to be cured, only or mainly by its opposite—courage. M. Richet re- lates how he had occasion to pass 'frequent- ly through a forest at night. He entered it boldly; but after a few steps the feeling of fear eame on rind he felt highly relieren when be Wan' the clear eke,- e rAin• night he was able to keep up his boldrstep for a longer and longer distance, until final- ly the fear was almost overcome. Habit is the only methed of removing fear. Work- men in .poWeler-mills know they are in con- stant ranger, but have no fear. To edu- cate a child to be breve, the habit of not fearing in clarknees and solitude, and to on, must bo taught by its Parents and guard- mns. Most of our nurses make cowards of children, and it would be about as well for them to grow up without this appendage to their lives. .• A Sooietv Conversation.
