Curios of Nature as Seen In the Cruel
I’laut and the Living Arch.
A Canadian climber, the Physian
thus al bens, has received the name of
“cruel plant” from its ill treatment of
butterflies. It flowers in the month of
August, and the butterflies, attracted
by the perfume, hover round it in large
numbers and push their trunks into the

corollas to sip the honey. A pair of
sensitive vegetable pinchers in the heart
of the flower grips the delicate probos
cis, and in spite of struggles to get free
the butterfly hangs suspended until it
dies. Apparently the plant has nothing
to gain by the death of the insect, as it
is not “carnivorous,” like the Venus
flytrap. In fact, if the butterfly were
allowed to come and go, it would tend
to foster the species by assisting cross
ferti zation. It appears, however, that
the - cruel plant” came originally from
Brazil, where the butterflies are much
stronger and extricate their suckers from
the trap. We may add that another
Canadian plant, the Cnicus discolor, is
charged with cruelty. The flower has a
gland which secretes a viscous liquid ca
pable of liming insects which are fond
of it. Moreover, they seem to be stupe
fied and poisoned by it, and no reason
can as yet be assigned for the deadly
consequence.
A remarkable tree growth described
and illustrated, as is the foregoing, by
Cassell’s Magazine exists in an arch be
tween a private park and a public road
at Middleboro, Mass. It is formed of
three trunks, which coalesce, and a
fourth has been added for symmetry by

the owner of the park, but whether the
trunks are independent trees or have
sprung from one root has not been as
certained. Such a curio from the hand
of nature is certainly more interesting
than an artificial entrance.
Another curious tree growth reported
consists of two beeches, over a foot in
diameter and 20 feet apart, joined like
the Siamese twins by a nearly horizon
< :■ 1 branch, which appears to have grown
out of one trunk and united itself with
the other in such away that it is im
possible to tell from which tree it
sprang. This bond is 12 feet from the
ground, and near its middle a smaller
limb springs almost vertically down
ward toward the ground.
A Typewriter For Bookkeepers.
Since the introduction of typewriting
machines and their acceptance by the
business world it has been the aim of
inventors to produce a typewriter ca
pable of use on books of record and
on insurance policies and other large
documents of varying sizes. According
to the New York Sun, this is now ac
complished in a machine which will re
ceive a book of any required width or
thickness, will write a line long or short
and is so devised that the distance be
tween lines may be scaled to suit the
amount of space at hand. A noticeable
feature also is the ribbon attachment
for writing with ink of any desired col
or. The removal of a black ribbon, for
instance, and the substitution of a red,
purplp or green ribbon are accomplished
with both ease and celerity.
Where several copies of a manuscript
are desired there is an arrangement by
which tirt) last copy of a dozen or 15
comes out as plain as the first.
An Indestructible Lamp Wick.
This wick, made entirely of clay, is
rendered capillary in a unique way—
by incorporating with the clay, while
it is in a plaster state, filaments of un
spun vegetable fiber, which are burned
out in the process of baking. The burn
ing out of the vegetable fiber leaves ca
pillary tubes running longitudinally
through the wick, through which the
oil from the lamp will be raised to the
flame by capillary attraction. Owing to
the perfect combustion of the wick the
flame is perfectly white in character,
devoid of odor and smokeless. It is
claimed that an indestructible wick is
thus provided which possesses all the
advantageous qualities of an ordinary
cotton or fiber wiok, and, in addition,
lasts an indefinite time without renewal
or necessity of trimming or care.
The Light of the Sun.
The light of the sun, according to Mr.
Tesla, is the result of vibrations in 94, -
000,000 miles of ether, which separate
us from the center of this solar system.
“It is difficult for me, ” he said, “to
give you an idea that you will readily
grasp about this question of vibration.
In ordinary life our minds do not deal
with the figures that come up in such
investigations, but take a 5 and put aft
er it 14 zeroes, then you will have the
number of vibrations which occur in
the ether every second, and which pro
duce light. ’ ’
