How Poverty COMES 1t is no wonder that
many people are poor when their hard earnings
are wasted Oh indugences which does harm in
stead of good. Bread is the great staple Of
food, and 5000, COO were spent last year for
flour to feed poor people. But the tobacco
sold in the country for chewing and smoking
AID snuff cost $3.50 600; about 81 for
every man, woman, and child This is bad
enough. but the cost OF intoxicating liquors

consumed IN 1870 at 100000, 600; averaging
nearly $40 for every man, woman and child

ISFLuENCE OF THE Moon on NEGETA-
TIoN. M. Carbonnier, member Of the
Acclmatization Society of Paris, has
published the result of some observations
On the effect of the moon upon vegetation,
which tend to confirm the popular no.
tions on this subject: 1t is well known
that glass aquariums, placed in the light,
soon become invaded by algoid growths,
which, in some cases, after time, per-
wade the whole of the interior. NJ. Car
BONNER, requiring to keep a number Of
these reservoirs perfectly clean, found
that, while in some cases no vegetation
appeared for ten days, or even more,
in others it was completely developed in
Two or three days. Watching these
phenomena with care for some time,
he came to the conviction that the
maximum intensity Of this veg
etation correspondeA with the time of
the full moon; he found that the in
crease diminished during the other
phases Of the moon until it was imper-
ceptlble; and, while at full moon the
aquariums had to be cleaned every day,
after tha: period twice week proved
sufficient The water that he used for
his aquariums is that of the canal of the
Ourcq ttoo impure for culinary pur.
poses, which is open for long dis.
tance, and is remarkable for the num-
Der Of microscopic germs it contains
very variable in quantity, but consid
cradle at the time of the full moon.
As aquarians are now in quite genera
use, many opportunities are afforded t,
repeat these observations. 1t wonld b.
curious if, after so long opposing th
popular traditions on this subject, mod
ern science should at last confirm then
and be able to explain them. The expert
ments of NJ. Carbonnier, so far as re
ported, seem to be wanting in precision
and need to be confirmed by other OF
servers, With careful attention to til
source and kind of the water supply.
