“vapor Cure’ ror Whooping Cougn.
In Devonshire, England, the peas
antry treat the patient on a sheep's
“forme.” A forme Is the imprint that
3 sheep makes on the grass by lying In
one place all night. When the animal
gets up in the morning, a sort of va
por rises from the warm ground un
derneath into the cold air of the early
dawn.
The sufferer is taken out into the
meadow where the sheep are at day
break, lald face downward on the
forme, and has then to breathe this va
por in, not merely through the nos
trils, but with open mouth. He must
breathe it until the ground is cold and
there i 8 no more vapor to be sucked
into his lungs. This takes about five
minutes.” Then the patient goes back
to bed, and in a few hours his cough
has left him—or at least so say the
Devon follr. -
Beautiful “Diamond Beetle.”
One of the most beautiful of .all In
sects 1s the “diamond beetle” of Bra
zil. According to the recent investi
gations of an American naturalist, who
has lately visited that country, the
sparkling colors of this beetle, which
blazes with extraordinary brilllance in
the sunshine, originate in an' entirely
different way from the hues of butter
files. The scales of the diamond
beetle -appear to consist of two layers,
separated by an exceedingly thin in
terspace, and the light falling upon
them experiences the effect of Inter
terence, so that the resulting colors cor
respond with those of thin plates or of
the soap bubble.
" Nature’s Linemen,
The downy woodpecker, the halry
woodpecker and the flicker all seem
possessed with 4 mania for killing de
structive wood-boring larvae, says the
American Forestry Magazine. Better
equipped than a telephone lineman for
-limbing ; supported by a spurred tail;
provided with hooked claws for cling
ing to the bark; hammer-headed,
shisel-beaked, and armed with a
tremendously long, strong, lance
sointed, barbed, extensile tongue, the
woodpecker drills through the wood
firectly into the spot where the borer
‘fes hidden, pushes in the tip of his
Darbed tongue, spears the viethn and
whips it quickly into his open beak.
