The Day FOrty-Eight Hours
Long.

Last weok we showed that the first
beginning ofthe day is somewhere be-
tween America and Asia. The pre-
cise locality of that somewhere has not
been determined Ifthe Pacific Ocean
were thickly populated with men, tho
place of the beginning of the day would
be a matter of great consequence, and
would probably be settled by statute.
The day would start from a meridian
line extending from pole, and the lon
gitude of this line would would be so
accurately fixed that a man might
stand Ostride it ndrealize the paradox
of having one foot in Monday and the
other in Tuesday. Many of the read
ers of this will live long enough to hear
this subject discussed in national coun-
ellis.
We propose now to show that Mon
day or any other week day ls forty
eight hours long; we mean that during
the whole of orty-eighthour Monday
is on earth somewhere to be found
The Monday of this city is Of course
twenty four hours long, but before and
after our Monday there is Monday in
some other quarter. When Monday
begins in New York, there have been
three hours of Monday in London, and
for three hours after our Monday ends
there will be Monday in San Francis
co. Thus between these places Mon
day lasts eighteen hours. Now if the
day line were at our antipodes, Monday
would begin there twelve hourse be-
fore ours, and end twelve hours after
ours. Thus, for the space Of forty
eight hours the earth is not rid of
Monday. The fact may be illustrated
in another way. Suppose we are at
the day line. Monday there begins,
and in twenty four hours along comes
Tuesday. But just west (half an inch
you please) Monday began only an
instant before it ended east Of the line.
The Monday east of the line is TWEEN
ty-four hours long, and west of theline
is the same length, and in all, Monday
lasts forty-oight hours Scientific

Tho Boston Mass Journal says -
Probably at no time have the opera
tlons Of the prohibitory liquor law been
more sensibly and etFectually sxper-
fenced by Its violators than during the
past few days. The rapid succession
of seizures by the officers of the State
ConstabulAry, together with the nun
erous arrests for single sales, has had
the effect to make the traffic uncertain
and improbable, and the dealers very
generally throughout the city have
considered it their wisest course TO
comply with the directions ofthose Of
ficers who have been so active in en-
forcing the prohibitOry law. Asa con
sequence nearly every public bar in
the city is closed, with the exception
of those connected with the hetels. a
large majority of wholesale dealers
have also complied with the demAn ds
made upon them, and their shutters
are up, the front door locked, and bus
mess apparently suspended"

TrichinOsIs.

A committee appointed by the Med
zeal Society of Vienna, and composed
of Professors Klob, Muller and Wedl,
has just published long report on tri-
chinosls, in which the startling fact Is
asserted that the real source of infeo-
tion entirely in the rat, in which the
;nalady is spontaneously developed and
which communicates it TO the pig In
Mcavia, eighteen out of forty nine
rats examined were trichiniEed, II pro-
portion of nearly thirty-seven per
cent. In lower Austria, the proper.
tion was not moro than four per cent,
and in the environs Of Vienna about
ten per cent.
The report confirms the fact that the
trichinosis may be transmitted by food
from the rat to the rabbit, from the
rabbit to the fox and hedgehog, from
the rat TO the pig, ans from the pig 10
the rat. Even the calf may be infec.
ted by being fed with the flesh Of tri-
chihized rabbit. What is worse still
the larvae of flies feeding on infected
meat will transmit trichinosis to rRb-
bits, provided the laEve como fresh
from tae infected substance for if n
certain time be allowed TO pass the tri-
chimes soon die in the digestive tube OF
the larv@.
tits important to notice that the re-
port distinctly confirms the innocu-
business Of triehinized meat when thor
oughly salted, smoked or boiled, the
lattor process being by far the most eff
fcacIous. Meat roasted for three-
quarters ofan houris the food boiling
requires whole hour. And yet the
report mentions cases Of infection re
Gently observed in Austria, 30 that
means should be taken there to protect
the public from this disastrous malady
Tho first measure proposed is the cx'
termination of all rats and mice, but
not without previously examining
them in order to ascertain the exs-
tenco of trIchinosis among them. II
this examination should lead TO AFR
native results, then particular care
should be taken in the locality to keeT
pigs away from all sewers, heaps o.
manure, and other such places fre-
quented by rats. The flesh of the pig
should be examined either after death
or evcn during lite, by means of incis
ions. The infected pig should be sep
Rrated from the others, marked, and
its sale prevented. Special slaughter
houses should be organized for pigs
and the flesh examined by veterinary
practitioners; and the public them
selves are warned never to eat raw
pork under any form, but strictly t.
consume it only well saltOd or smoked
boiled or roasted.

struggled desperately. "Don't yen

instant the man drew from his pocket
largo phial, the contents Of which
were Oaustic potassa. This he threw
into the face Of the child and then took
