THE OCEAN Creatures Dironrlng Encli Other to Prevent Overproduction It is estimated thut the cyclops will beget 442000 youug iii the course of the j ear and if these were all permit ted to mature and reproduce them selves the seas would iu a short time TJe a simple mass of living organisms But the cetochilus or whale food constitutes almost the exclusive food of the vast shoals of herrings aud the sea living salmon and salmon trout Their existence is one of the greatest economic triumphs of nature for these minute creatures scour the sea of its refuse and keep it sweet while they form the food of- lishes which in turn furnish wholesome food for millions of human beings Feeding on dead vegetable and ani mal matter these entomostraca are converted into the food lishes of the world by one remove being first assim ilated by the herrings then absorbed by the tunny cod mackerel and other Oshes which follow herring shoals and prey upon the latter They mainly swim on the surface of the water and it is the search of thetn in this position which brings the shoals of herrings to the surface Their countless numbers are also augmented by the microscopic larvae of fixed shells such as the bar nacle which begins life in this form first as a one eyed swimming crusta cean then growing a pair of eyes and finally afiixing itself In rivers these larvae are the sole food of all young fish and often also of older fish In early spring the crea tures in every stage eggs larvae and perfect though miscroscopic entomos traca swarm in the water on the mud and on the water plants and were it not for natures provision for keeping them in check so rapid would be their rate of multiplication that the whole character of the water would speedily be entirely changed AIR IN HIGH ALTITUDES The Same iin In Other Places hat It Contain No Mlcrohcn It is an error to think that the chem ical composition of the air differs es sentially wherever the sample may be taken The relation of oxygen to nitro gen and other constituents is the same whether it is on the heights of the Alp3 or at the surface of the sea The fa vorable effects therefore of a change of air are not to be explained by any difference in the proportions of its gaseous constituents The important difference is the bacteriological one The air of high altitudes contains no microbes and is in fact sterile while near the ground and some hundred feet about it microbes are abundant In the air of towns and crowded places not only does the microbe Impurity in crease but other impurities such as the products of combustion of coal ac crue also Several investigators have found traces of hydrogen and certain hydro carbons in the air especially in pine oak and birch forests It Is to these bodies doubtless consisting of traces of essential oils that the curative ef fects of certain health resorts are trac ed Thus the locality of a fir forest is said to give relief In diseases of the respiratory tracts But these traces of essential oils and aromatic product must be counted strictly speaking as Impurities since they are apparently not necessary constituents of the air Recent analysis has shown that these bodies tend to disappear in the air as a higher altitude is reached until they disappear altogether It would seem therefore that microbes hydrocarbons and entities other than oxygen and nitrogen and perhaps also argon are only incidental to the neighborhood of human Industry animal life and damp vegetation Chicago Chronicle Ancient RcmedlcM For Hicconsh The hiccough seems to be a modern and
