The Glowwenu’i X Ray.
The glowworm's light is said to have
been shown to be due to the emission of
rays similar to Roentgen’s. Three hun
dred glowworms were caught near
Kioto and placed before photographic
plates screened from the light by sev
eral thicknesses of black paper, together
with plates of brass, copper and alumin
ium. A piece of cardboard with a hole
in it was placed between the metal and
the photographic plate, and for two
days the arrangement was kept in a
dark chamber, sheltered from all foreign
lights. On developing the plate it
was found to be blackened, except the
art opposite the hole in the cardboard.
The rays of the glowworm would appear
therefore to penetrate metal and excite
luminosity in cardboard. When there is
nothing between the sensitive plate and
the glowworm, the rays are said to be
have like ordinary light, but in travers
ing some metals and cardboard they
seem to acquire properties like that of
X rays, or it may be that the ordinary
glowworm emits X as well as ordinary
rays.—Revue Soientifique.
A Mean Trick.
Absentmindedly Brooks stepped up
to the cashier’s desk and paid for his
luncheon. Then, accompanied by Riv
ers, he went out into the open air.
“Brooks,” said Rivers, “you’d better
go back and settle for your dinner if
you don’t want the proprietor to follow
you out and dun you right here on the
street.’’
“Great Scott! Didn’t I pay for it?”
ejaculated Brooks. “Where’s my check?
I haven’t got it.”
“I picked it up as we left the table, ”
said Rivera. “Here it is.”
“Ah, you have come back to pay the
other gentleman’s check,” said the
cashier as Brooks went back, stepped up
to the desk a second time and handed
out a half dollar.
When Brooks went outside again, a
moment later, Rivers was nowhere in
sight, and there is another unsettled
account between them. —Chicago Trib
