CarbOnic Acid Exhaled by Animals.

A German chemist has made a long
series of careful experiments to ascer-
tain the quantity of carbonic acid
given off in respiration by different
animals. From among his most I'M
portant conclusions printed in the
Journal Of Chemical Society, we select
a few which appear worth wider no.
tice. In proportion to their weight.
the largest quantity of carbonic acid
is given off by birds-mammals come
neXt-and worms, amphibia, fishes
and snails form another group in
which the eXcretion of carbonic
acid Is much smaller; of these, worms
give off the most, and snails the least.
Those that live in water give off more
carbonic acid to the air than they do to
the water; young animals more than
old ones. Experiments with colored
light show that under the green and
yellow more carbonic acid is eXcreued
than in ordinary daylight; and on
comparing light and darkness, it was
found that much less carbonic acid is
given off during the night than during
the day. Among the rays Of differ
emily colored light, the milk-white
and blue rays come next to the green
and yellow in activity; and the red
and violet are the least active of all
the hues of the spectrum. Scientific

The Blue.GIass Cure.

So far as can he ascertained, only
one Detroit family has yet taken adj
vantage of the wonderful curative
properties of Gen. Pleasonton's blue
glass discovery. The idea took with
them from the start, and, three or four
weeks ago, the blue-glass commenced
hammerlng at their ailment. The lady
of the house, who has for years been
such an invalid that she could not
make over five calls in an afternoon,
was, III two weeks, so restored to
health that she was able to leave
home in the morning and remain away
all day, leaving her children to get
their meals among the neighbors and
her husband to lunch down town. Be
fore she began taking sun-baths she
was melancholy and respondent, and
didn't care for fine things. In one
week from the time the first blue
lights were i'll she planned a trip to
Florida, ran her husband in debt for
set of cameo jewelry, set in pearls,
and had hard crying spell because
she couldn't have new velvet dress.
She was formerly so weak and languid

only shook down the stove, but all the

jumped out doors to call the neigh

him around, too Her appetite has
wonderfully improved under the
strange cure, and now she can eat
most anything which her husband will
come home and cook For three long
years she was always complaining of
headache. That complaint has now
entirely vanished, and she continually
scolds about the cOrns on her toes,
thus giving her husband a grateful
change. One of the pleasantest sights
on that street, these sunny days, is to
see this lady behind the blue panes,
seated in rocker. her nose close to
the pages of novel, hair down, eyes
half-closed, and the blue-glass throw

PODlIlarfey.

The popularity Of Messrs, James s. Kirk q
Co.'s soaps, manufactured in Chicago, is
shown by the unprecedented sale which their
goods have reached during the year 1876. This
by far is the largest soap manufacturing con-
Germ in the United States, producing and selling
in all parts of this country, from the Red River
of the North to New Orleans, and from Port
land, Me-. TO San Francisco, 100000 pounds
annually. No so-called greases ener into these
soaps Only pure refined tallow and vegetable
oils are used, containing no adulteration. Fair
and square weights always reliable. This Is
why their soaps are so popular with all good
and economical housekeepers.
