It is stated “that during the last died twenty-five of years not a singlesinger has although consumption this disease has at fit. outstripped Petersburg, all others, and now holds the first place among the causes of death at the Rus¬ sian capital. ” From this and other facts, Dr. Vasilieff draws an inference in favor of the exercise involved in singing, as a preventive measure against consump¬ tion. There would seem to be room for question ss to the relation of cause and effect. It may either happen that sing¬ ers are not consumptive chest because they can use your and throat freely, or that consumptive persons are not singers because the weakness which pre¬ cedes incapacitates the chest and throat from action. Both of tliese hypotheses are true to a certain point, but neither holds good in all cases.

In the villages of Wliippany and Parsip pany, N. J., there are four persons over 90 years of age and twenty-four over 80 three-fourths of whom are women. Two of these old women were seen trudging alo.ig the road the other day, who said they were between 90 and 100 years old, and had just been to see their mother, who was 115 years old. The latter is very sensitive about her age, and does not like to ho questioned about it; she is quite bliqd and a little deaf. Shehas had five husbands, the last one being 65 years of age. She does not remember her first husband nor how many children she has had hy the live. She has scarcely ever left the town, and at no time has gone far away.

You will find, if you carefully examine a bird’s wing, that all the bones and mus cles are placed along the stiff front and edge, which is thus made very strong, The quffl feather* are fastened in such a wav that they point backward, so that the hind edge of the wing is not stiff like the front edge, but is flexible and bends at the least touch. As the air is not a solid, but a gas, it has a tendency when this to slide out from under the wing is driven downward, and of course it will do this at the point where it can escape most easily. Since the front edge retains of the wing is stiff and strong, it its hollow shape, and prevents the air from sliding out m this direction, but the pressure of the air is enough to bend up the thin, flexible ends of the feathers at the hinder border of the wing, so the air makes its escape there, and slides out 1 backward The weight of the bird is all the time pulling it down toward the earth; so at the same time the air slides out np wind and backward, past the bent edge of the wing, the wing itself, and the bird slides forward and downward off from the confined air. It is really its weight which causes it to do this, so that the ks s sz%i su They all have wing8 with stiff front edges and flexible hind edges which bend* % and allow the air to pass out, so that flying is nothing but sliding down a hill made of air A bird rises by flapping »ts wings, and it flies bv falling back toward the earth and sliding forward at the same time. At the end of each stroke of its wings it has raised itself enough to make up for the distance it lms fallen since the last stroke, and accordingly it stays at the same hight and moves forward in a straight line. If you watch the flight of those birds which the woodpecker, flap their wings slowly, them such as you can see rise and fall, and will have no trouble in see¬ ing that tlieir path is not really a straight line, but is made up of curves; although most birds flap their wings so rapidly that they have no time to fall through a space great enough to be seen. Birds also make use of the wind to aid them in flight, and by holding their wings shall in¬ clined like a kite, so that the wind slide out under them, they can sail great distances without flapping their wings at all.
