Two suns appeared in the sky for a short time over the Chiehibu inouiu tains, Japan, recently, and the lokio weather bureau said the phenomenon was due to a cloud el frozen vapour in the sky acting as a reflector. Artificial feet of rubber are serving a duck whose real feet were frozen ofi’ when it escaped from its pen in Michican one winter night. The artificial pair was fashioned at a rubber plant, constructed so that the two stumps of the duck’s leg would fit into the upper pari, of the rubber set. After t period of hopping around, the duck has learned to use its new feet, walking and swimming with almost as much ease as the normal ones in the flock.
