notes the separation of bile from the blood
which is then passed from the system, thus
preventing iseases of summer. All fever,
are,'billious,' that is, the bile is in the blood
! Whatever is antagonistic to fever is cooling
! 1t is a common saving that fruits are 'cool-
! ing, and also berries of every description;
/ 1t is because the aeidity which they con-
! tain aids in separating tho bile from the
blood, that is, aids in purifying the blood.
/ Hence the great yearnings for green's and
| lettuce and salads,in the early spring, those
being eaten with vinegar; hence, also, the
taste for something sour, for lemonade on
an attack of fever. Bat this being the case, 4,
it is easy to see that we nullify the good eff
fects of fruits and berries in proportion as
we eat them with sugar, or even sweet
milk, or cream. If we eat them in their
natural state, freeh, ripe, perfect, 1t Is al
most impossible to ea: too many, to cat
enough to hurt us, especially five eat them
alone, not taking any liquid with them
whatever Hence, also, buttermilk or even
common sour milk is antagonistic. The
Greeks and Turks are passonately fond Of
sour milk. The shepherds use rennet. and
the milk dealers alumn, to make it sour the
sooner, Buttermilk acts like water-mel-
ous on the system .--HalPs Journal of

Why BEES Work IN THE. DARK.-A life
time might be spent in investigating the
mysteries hidden in a bee hive, and still
hajf of the secrets would be undiscovered
The formation of tho cell has long been "a
celebrated problem for the mathematician,
Wills the changes which the honey un-
dergoes offer at least an equal interest to the
chemist. Every one knows what honey
fresh from the comb is like. It is a clean
yellow syrup, without a trace of solid sugar
in it. Upon straining, however is gradual
ly assumes a crystalline appearauCe-it
candies, as the saying Is, and ultimately be-
comes a solid mass of sugar. 1t has not
been suspected that this change was due to
a photograph action; that the same agent
which alters the molecular arrangement of
the iodids Of silver on the excited colo
dion plate, and determines the formation Of
camphor and iodine crystals in bottle,
cause the honey syrup to assume a crystal
line form. This, however is the case. N.
Scheibler has enclosed honey in stoppered
TASKS. some of which he has kept in per
feet darkness, whilst others have been ex-
posed to the light. The invariable result
has been that the summed portion rapidly
crystalizes, whilst thai kept in the dark re-
maiued perfectly liquid, We now see why
bees are so careful to work in perfect dark
ness, and why they are so careful to obscure
the glass windows which are sometimes
placed in their hives. The existence Of
the young depends on the liquidity Of the
sacchariUe food presented to them, and if
lights were allowed access TO this, the syrup
would gradually acquire more or less SOL
in consistency; it would seal up the cells,
and, in all probability, prove fatal to the
inmates of the hive.
LIScoLN's SuPPoRTERs-Wm Lloyd Gar I.
risou, in 1856, said:
"The Union is a lie The American I'm /

death, aud an agreement with hell. | am .
for its overthrow"
This same Garrison is an ardent suppor-
ter of Lncolu's re- nom iuation and re-elec- /
ton. SHOW me the company you keep and !
I'll tell you what you are,' is Spanish pro-
verb peculiarly to this case.
Another of Old Abe's supporters is Fred |
Douglas, who, in speech over the hanging /
Of old John Brown, said:

labors of my life to the dissolution of the .
Union, and | don't care whether the bolt /
that reuds it comes from heaven or hell.'' |

'secessionists." "disunonists," &c. Iusup- |
