Magdalen College, Oxford, which tends
to increase our estimate of the mental
capacity of the feathered tribes: g!
have often" says the writer, "noticed
that crows crowded on Sundays to a GER
tain place, where, on the seventh day, a
friend OF mine was in the habit OF
amusing himself by placing a quantity
of broken biscuit on his window sill. He
had time for this only on the Sunday
morning, and during the week no food
was so presented. We noticed that on
the Sundays a crowd of birds came about
the window, whereas on other days no
special sign of excitement was visible
among them"

and an inch deep of rain on an acre

which, at 277.274 cubic inches to the

Rheumatic patients who have been induced
to submit to depletion by blood letting, or to
take colchicum and other drugs of an equally
pernicious character, will consult their well
being by abandoning such insane procedure
and using as q substitute Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters, which will infallibly afford them the
much desired relief, and is absolutely safe.
This benign vegetable depurient cools the
blood by expelling from it the inflammatory
elements which give rise to maladies of a
rheumatic and equity type, and %rectifies dis
ordered conditions of the stomach, nervous
system and bowels which usually accompany
them. As rheumatism has a tendency to
attack the heart, the desirability of an early
resort to the Bitters is obvious, since the
danger is increased by every moment of

According ~ tho most fecent re
searches, certain microscopic organized
or living bodies constitute IN oil probhs
bility The specific poison or c%ontagien
which causes the spreading Of epidemics
When ever there is n fresh outbreak Of
an epidemic in a locality, the FIRST case il
sure 10 be In connection with y like case
In some other locality. This fact, the
result Of extensive experience, goes far
to demonstrate that contagion can only
be produced by selimultiplication aud
not by any chance Of coincidence.

"THE AGE OF REASON.

The boy that went to the mill on horse
back, carrying the grist in one end of the
bag and a stone in the other, when reproved
by the miller, and told to divide the grist,
replied that his father and grandfather had
carried it that way, and he, being no better
than they, should continue to do as they did.

npaANtc INDIVIDUALITY,

DR.. J. @. Bucknill, an eminent Lon
don physician, who has made the study
OF the brain a speciality, remarks that
" No one brain is like any other brain.
Either through the force of inheritance
from the parent organism, or through
the influence of education or other modi-
fyine circumstances, every mind posses
ses such a popularity of the individuality
in the relative susceptibility and strength
of its organs that the same disturbing
influence never produces in two brains
exactly the same pathological effects"

All the planets move in what are called
e~llipses or ovals, differing not greatly
from a circle. Comets OF short known
periods and those of long conlectural
periods move in very elongated ovals,
whose longer diameter is many times as
great as their shorter. Those which
have been known not to reappear move
either in a parabola, which is a ellipse or
oval infinitely elongated, or in an hyper
bola, p curve something resembling in
form an area of a circle whose center is
infinitely distant. In the former case
they may really move in ellipses OF enor-
nous elongation, and may, therefore, de-
scribe a regular orbit round the SUI in
hundreds of centuries.

RTTTTERIN Il,

The chemical properties of butterine,
properly prepared from ox,suett, are
almost Identical with those of ordinary
butter, the only difference being a few
per cent. of volatile fatty acids forming
butyrine in the true butter. Fully 80
per cent. of both butter and butterlne
consists of the more liquid fats common
to both. The butter, il fact, is prac-
tically the animal fat passed by the COW
through the udder in the milk from
which it was manufactured; while but
terine is made from the finer part of the
fat which the OK stored up in its suet.
Both fats are equally cleanly and whole
some.
