SURGERY FOR THE ANIMALS
Operating Table for Horse* Has Beta
Opened in Unlveraity of N ,
Pennsylvania. I
Horses, cows and males can now be
given surgical treatment for tumors,
wounds, laryngitis, ruptures,
bones, severed tendons, distortions
and many internal diseases that for-'
' merly made it necessary to shoot
them.
Such operations are being performed
every weekday In the year, not only
for the purpose of getting information
concerning rare diseases that may be
of value later In treating human be
ings, but to save and prolong the lives
of tbc animals and to increase their
usefulness, the Scentiflc Ameri
can. And the same facts apply td dogs,
cats and other pets, including rabbits,
gontß, canary birds, parrots, monkeys
and even the pungent skunk. They ap
ply also to barnyard fowl—chickens,
geese, ducks and turkeys.
What rtlght be called the other side
of the antivivisection story was
brought to public attention qulfe re
cently In Philadelphia by the an
nouncement that there had been set
up In the University of Philadelphia
veterinary hospital the first operating
table ever built for the accommodation
of horses and other large animals.
The machine was designed by* Dr.
John W. Adams, professor of veteri
nary surgery and obstetrics at the
university and chief operating' sur-i
geon at the hospital, which is run in
conjunction, with the school. It was
evolved efter several years'* of experi
ence and after all existing apparatus
had been lound unadaptable to the pe
culiar needs of the veterinary surgeon.
MUSICIANS ARE LONG LIVED
This C.teme True' Especially of Eng
lish Organists Who Have Ob
tained Good Positions.
Usually tbe clergy are supposed tO (
live longer, on an average, than the
members of any other profession..
Certainly doctors do not take a fore
most place. The dangers of their work
lower their average life. Men In tbe
higher ranks /of the law, judges par
ticularly, are proverbially long-lived,
- bat many fall by tbe way In the law
yer's busy calling.
▲ claim is now being made for those
who obtain* a comfortable position -In
tbe world off iausic, and loetances an
given. Sir Walter Parratt, the organ
• Ist of St Oeor*«'s chapel, Windsor,
England, Ims been at- bis work for*»
years, beginning as a boy of eleven,
and he varies music with the most try*
\ lng of all games, chess.
Sir George Blvey, the organist at
Windsor-before Sir Walter, held the
post for v 47 years. Sir Frederick
Bridge, late organist at Westminster
abbey, retired when be bad held Us
post 44 years; and he followed an on
ganlst, James Turle, who had served
the abbey 86 years.
.Barking Sands.
At certain points along oar aeaodaata
"vocal sands" are found In patches,
exhibiting k phenomenon that' has
never been very satisfactorily ex
plained. The beach at Manchester N.
H., Is famous for them.
These sands, when dry. yield a pecu
liar sound If struck by the foot, or even
when stroked by tbe hand. At the same
time a tingling sensation Is felt by the
fingers or by bare toes.
The sound resembles the distant
barking of a dog, and It may some
tines be beard at a distance of 100
feet.
Tne most remarkable "singing sands"
sre found on tbe Island of Kauai, one
of the Hawaiian group. By clapping
them between the hands a faint hpot
lng noise is produced. But the hostile
sounds are greatly intensified by put
ting a quantity in a bag and slamming
It about.
Hungarians Own This Town.
Hlmlervllle, Ky. f Is one American
town founded and Inhabited entirely
by Hungarian Immigrants and their
children. It is the seat of a coal
mining enterprise where evbry re
source and process, from the under
ground veins, to the town hall, are
oynt-d by the people who dig tbe coal,
says tbe Detroit News. Every owner
of stock la the Hinder Coal company
most be either an American citizen or
one who has taken out h! it first dtl
senahlp papers. Only permanent set
' tiers who know the country and have
adopted it as their own, are desired.
Length of Twilight.
Twilight is daylight which continues
after sunset. light Is reflected from
tbe uppe- air till the 'son Is about 18
degrees below tte horizon, bat the
. length of twilight depends a great deal
apoa the condition of the atmosphere.
Ea law htlMn, mostly on account, of
the quickneoa with which the son trav
erses the 10 degrees below the ho*
of the atmosphere, there Is Httto twi

Color of Geld.
When you look at a bit of pure gpld
you are quite well satisfied that It la.
of a light yellow color. It only ap
peJrs so. The white light reflected
from Its surface has the effect of adul
terating the color rays from the metal
and It appears much lighter than it
really is. If this white light Is elimi
nated, tbe color Is a brilliant orange.
Beaten to Its greatest possibility of
thinness, it becomes transparent toi
light and held up and looked through,,
it becomes a lively sage green. Se
duced to a fine powder It becomes:
ruby red and when vaporised It be
comes purple. " j
