THE EYE AS A CAMERA:
Curious Photographic ExPeri ants
With the Human Retina.
Under the title of "In Dead Ey s" an
evening contemporary recently m 1 a
statement which carries its own co futa-
tion with it. It is to the effect 1, , a
physician and-entbusiaetio pho pher,
being desirous a testing the amo nt of
truth in the theory that dead eyes tales
e • complete images, had carefully ined
'Ole eyes of hundreds of dead peopl and,
though be bad never seen anythin ke a
distiriot picture mirrored, he had inly
distinctly traced both lettere and jeots
on the iris of the eye, and that w an the
photographic test was applied these E ages
became visible. In one ease a oapi Ilet-
, could be traced to a Testament held
tar of peculiar form was shown rhioh
nthe
hande shortly before death. In a iother
case a numeral . was distinctly p tured
which was traced to a clock face in the
room. The article in question con Junes,
"The chief scientific paper of Fran only
the other day gave tuIl particular, of a
case where a woman who died in ne of
the hoepitals had telt° numbers, 10 d 45,
mirrored in the iris of her eyes."
These absurd stories originate in the
well known experiments of Kuhne on the
visual purple of the retina, in the course
of which he showed that by making pecial
arrangements the crossbars of a indovr
focused on the retina could be bought
Into relief. The enthusiastic photog pher,
If he be not misquoted, ought have
known that no well defined imag of the
external world are cast upon the irs, and
none therefore could be preserved The
surface of the iris Is far too urieveij to sec
as a mirror. Moreover, as no ange-
'newts were made to prevent the further
action of light after death, they would if
formed be certainly obliterated iis the
image on a photographic plate would be
if permanently exposed. The only mode
In which an image impressed mi the retina
could be rendered visible would be to
adopt the method of Kuhrie-viz,lby ex-
posing the eye previously kept in the dark
for a minute or two to an illumine ed 1ob-
ject, then extirpating it, opening it and
immediately plunging it into a lution
of alum. The image develops ln the
course of 24 honos.-London Lancet,

What Would Happen In Oneteams'
it Nature Didn't Interfer4.
Professor Howard of the Washin ton en-
tomological bureau has made a aareful
computation and declares that a single
female fly may in one season become the
ancestress of 4,472,286,108,628,718,559,820
' flies. This estimate supposes that all her
progeny and descendants, geeeratien after
generation, survive and enjoy faiturahle
conditioins for the propagation of the spe-
cies, which condition of things d not
occur in nature. .
Such a figure is too vast for us t4 grasp,
end we must reduce it to some asia of
reckoning. By the very accurate weigh-
ing of one member of the tribe of indow
pane buzzers the weight was foun to be
Iwo centigrams -that is, it woul I take
1,400 flies to make an ounce avoir upois.
Measurement showed that the c eating
was four -tenths of an inch long.
With these figures we can arrive i t some
Interesting conclusions. To make a pound
12,400 files would be required, which
means that 50,176,000 of the littl.j ite go
lc, the ton. -
Try to imagine a ton of files! list it 10
not such an extraordinary quantity. A
good sited elephant weighs ten tons, yet it
would be balanced on the scale by only a
•portion of the number of flies me tioned
by Professor Howard. e
Calculation shows thei$ Howard' enor-
mous figure would make 8,900,000, 0,000
Ey elephants. But the remarkable nature
e the statement is not fully a parent
lvithout a little more easy arithmetic.
To prevent the evil of overor wding
among elephants it would be n* essary
to give to each one an averagi apace
measuring 15 feet square -that s, 295
tquare feet. It follows therefore th t 198, -
MO fly elephants could stand on one square
mile of territory. But when we look at
,ihat figure and compare it with $r total
-lif 8,900,000,000,000‘we ask oursel es how
great an area would be required to m -
mode% them ail. Nearly twice tlie total
area of the globe would be needed to give
ill thiiiie monsters standing room -New
rork World.
Handiness In American chine

One of the features, of the maclai, e tools
st American make which almost invaria-

things and has ultimately left its mpress
on thework of the designer of mac minery.
Precedent counts less with him p obably
than with moat designers of other ation-
elitist It is the new, the untri md, but
possibly useful, which appeals to him for

an enviable reputation for the output of
the American tool builder. - Cassier's
