An Arabian Curiosity.

a singular vegetable phenomenon
was discovered during recent csplora-
tlons in Arabia. 1t is called the
laughing plant, from the effect pro.
duced by the seeds. When thcy arc
pulvcr'zcd end eaten in small ouan.
titles the person eating them will soon
begin to laugh loudly, then to sing,
dance and do all manner Of absurd
things. This lasts for an hour. after
which he goes to sleep, and having
slept another hour, wakes up utterly
unconscious Of what has occurred. l.
mas beer suggested that this plant
might be made substitute for alco.
mol, and that it would have the ad.
vantage of being cheaper, until the
govcrnmcntt1should see through the
!rlcN and commence to tax it. But
IL Is scarcely probable that tho Ara.
hlan plant could in fact be made
popular in that capacity, for it does
not appear that it inspires the person
VINO r'rtakes of it with desire to
whip his wife, murder his mother or
indulge in any Of the plcasantries
that the alcohol Of the period moves

Sioux City Journal, Republican J
"The desire to turn the farmers
movement into good speculation is
cropping out on all sides. There is a,
great dealN less genuine sympathy
with the movement than many sup
pose. In the West it is sought to
use the farmers in grinding political
axes. Consequently many buncombe
speeches are made and great deal
of meaningless writing is done.
