Vipers In France.
Strangers are sometimes surprised
by the fear of vipers which exists in
some parts of France. These little
venomous snakes are dangerous both
to man and beast. Recently a move
ment has Ix^n made to protect the
vipers, on the ground that they render
valuable aervlces in destroying ro
dents, mollusks, and other small noxi
ous animals, but a writer in the Jour
nal of Practical Agriculture strenu
ously opposes this, declaring that the
services performed by the vipers are
of small account In comparison with
the accidents, frequently mortal,
which they cause. He instances a lit
tle neighborhood In the Department
of Meurthe-et-Moselle. where the
vipers became a veritable plague, and
where. Inspired by the offer of a re
ward, two hunters destroyed 12,000.
An Electric Alr-Trsp.
The Instrument used by Mons. Tela

aid of sounding balloon consists of a
very perfect vacuum-tube with a fine

the mercury In a barometer corre
sponding with a previously determined
| altitude, or the clockwork of the
meteorograph forms an electric con
tact, causing a little hammer to fall
and break the end of the tube. Afr
then rushes In. thereupon another
electric contact, bronght about by the
same means, allocs the current of a
email accumulator to heat the plati
num wire wound round the capillary
tube to a red heat. This fusee the
glass and again cioees the end of
vacuum<uba. thus entrapping the
