Scientific paper

I HAVE been much amused at the questions on the above (NATURE, vol. xviii. p. 40), by Mr. Latimer Clark, and the answer (p. 66) by my old friend Capt. J. P. Maclear; the numbers of NATURE for May having only just reached my ``out-of-the-world'' residence. I suspect Mr. L. C. has had in his mind what I have often had, and with which I have frequently puzzled some ``unco guid'' Sabbatarians ! If it is such a deadly sin to work on Sunday, one or the other of A and B coming, one from the east, the other from the west, of 180° meridian, must, if he continues his daily avocations, be in a bad way ! Some of our people in Fiji are in this unenviable position, as the line of 180° passes through Loma-Loma !
