~ The Episcopal Convention on
the occasion of each secret session
takes the precaution to have a fire
built in the furnace Of the building in
which the sessions are held, although
the weather during almost the entire

The object of this has been to prevent
newspaper reporters from gaining in
formation through the hot air pipes.
The precautlon was not untimely, as
the plan has been resorted to before.
A few years ago secret convention
was held in Cleveland, and an enter
prlslng reporter planted himself in the
furnace, and, with the aid of "tal-
low dip" and pencil, made an accurate
report OF the entire proceedings above
him; and to this day some of the mem

p'easanter than the life OF a Missouri
farmer? At daylight he gets up and
examines the holes around his corn
hills for cut worms, then he smashes
cooling moth larvae with hoe handle
until breakfast. The forenoon is de-
voted to watering the potato bugs with
solution of Paris green, and after
dinner all hands turn ont To pour boil
ing water on the chlntz bugs in the
corn and wheat fields. In the evening
tavorlte occupation is smudging
peach trees to discourage the curculio,
and, after brief season of family de
votion at the shrine of the night fiyinc
coleoptera, all the folks retire and
sleep soundly till Aurora reddens the
east and the gra>shoppers tinkle
against the panes and summon them
to the labors of another day.

TRANSMISSION of Blood.

At the last sitting of the Paris
Academy of Science an interesting
paper was read on the operation of
infusion of blood. At the time the
operation was decided upon the pa
tlent Ga woman) appeared to be on
the brink of the grave; the pulse was
imperceptible, her weakness such that
she was unable to move, her eyesight
all but ex:inguished; she was unable
to speak, and nothing would stay on
her stomach. DIR. Behier performed
the operation in the presence OF "A
number of students. He said it was
highly important the blood to be in
iected should be pure and in It's ma
Iural state, without being deprived of
its tibrine or allowed to cool Such
preliminaries had been considered ne
cessary in order to prevent coagula
ton in the vein; but there is no need
of them if the operation was quickly
effected The blood should not be
dead, but living. One obstacle that
had hitherto caused TRANSMISSION to be
looked upon with dIsfavor was the diff
ticulty of introducing the nozzle of the
syringe into the vein The late DIR
Nelaton had proposed to obvlate this
by an incision of the skin an inch long
in order to bring the vein into view.
DIR. Beher prefers opening the vessel
with lance, as in blood letting; he
recommends the injection to be per.
formed slowly, to prevent the sudden
repletlon of the right ventricle of the
heart, which would cause asphyxla
and death. The quantity of blooc
administered in this case was not more
than eight grammes. The possibility
Of success is now proved beyond ;
doubt after a controversy which has
lasted Inward of two centuries.
