Fruit as o Medicine.

The worst case of dyspepsia can be
cured without the least particle of medi
cine, simply by eating nothing in which
lard is an ingredient, using butter sparing.
ly, eating bread made Of unbolted' -four
and making free uss. Of fruiR, especially ap-
pies. In fact, most people would be much
better off if they eat meat not more than
once or twice q week, and used fruit and
vegetables instead Pork and lard are
great promoters of dyspepsia, and fevers
and bilious diseases are fed by keeping up
bodily heat of mid.winter in June and
July, August and September, and never
ehanging our diet from the heavy meats
Of January. An eminent French physi-
clan says that the decrease OF dyspepsia
and bilious affections in Paris is owing
to the increased consumption of apples: a a
fruit he maintains, which, is an admirable
preventive and tonic, as well as a yery
nourishing and easily digested article Of
food. The Parisians deyonr one hundred
millions Of them every winter, and we do
not doubt that these statements are per
fectly correct. In fact, instances have
come under our observation, where fresh
truit had q q immediate effect in checking
bilious tendencies in individuals, and we
have heard of whole districts where bilious
diseases become prevalent upon the failure
OF the fruit crop. Fruit growers NAV.
therefore,, count upon o constantly ~increas.
ing demand for the products Of Their or.
chards and gardens, as the. health giving
properties Of fruit become sk~nown.-@Exe

# %E a.
m. PaBoIestra has c~6fsfnunscated to the
French Academy some observations on
ague poison He says, that in examining
marsh water he always finds, in proportion
10 its degree, or pEtrefaetion. q granular
m~icrophyte, somewhat resembling in form
the Cactus PsrupSaaas. Il is always &C.
eompsnied-by a considerable quantity OF
small spores 1900 of q millimeter in
diameter, greenistr yellow and transparent,
and also by sporangia or ~vesicles contain
ing spores from 2f100 to 1880 Of . milli-
meter in diameter, and Of very Characters
nc form. This plant grows on the surface
Of the water; when young, it is rainbow
ike in. tints,, and looks like spots of oil.
At the low temperature of cellars and in
water containing no vegetation, it develops
slowly, but in contact with air and exposed
to solar rays, it grows fast, d~isengaging
small. gas bubbles. A few drops of arse.
NOUS acid, sulphite of soda, or, still better,
neutral sulphate of a~uinine, stops its vege-
tation at the surface Of the water, the
spores become thin and transparent, and
the sporangia alter 50 that they would not
be recognized. These changes may be
seen. under the microscope. M. Bolestra
states that these spores can be found in
marsh air. He caught agues twice during
his researches-once after having been
exposed 70 air from water in fermentation
covered with fresh algae in fall vegetation,
mixed with an extraordinary quantity of
spores. He thinks these spores. constitute
the sgue poison.-lScienti6c American.
