To ARREST A FELoN.-A deep. seated,
throbbing pain in the end of the finger
should never be disregarded, as this is
always the first symptom of Felon.
The disease invariably begins at the
bone, and before suppuration has COM
menced may often be arrested. Dip the
finger quickly into boiling water several
times IN succession; this may be done
without any risk oil scalding the part.
Repeat this every hour for some hours,
and the cure is generally complete.
If the disease has already progressed
TO the supuration point, have it laid
open to the bone. Nothing but this will
save you from weeks OF suffering, and
perhaps permanent detormity. A Felon
may always be cured in ten days, even
when matter has already formed, II the
above advice be faithfully followed.

Exception has been taken to the
opinion of Sir John Lubbock that it is
not the odor but the color Of flowers
that regulates the visits Of insects TO
them. His critic cites the fact from
personal observation that bee setting
on a scarlet geranium, for instance,
will not go from it to a distinct variety,
but confine its attention to one species
only, whatever may be the color of the
flowers, of that species. 1t does not go
from the scarlet geranium to another
scarlet flower of another species. He
also points out that if Sir Johns view
were correct, the indiscriminate admix-
ture of pollens would be inevitable,
thus frustrating the designs of nature
by leading to mOnstrosities of barren
ness.

To SAVE THE LEAVES OF PLANTs.-Dig
out the mold from the top Of the pot
and fill it up with good rich earth; cut
back the plant, water freely with warm
water, and put in a sunny window, in
a cool room. Too much heat kills house
plants. Treated as above, the plant
will soon put out new leaves, and, if a
Towering plant, will blossom in short
time.

Professor ColtddOn, of Geneva, has
given special attention to the investiga-
tion of lightning stroke, and its effects
upon trees. He has concluded that
springs and subterranean bodies OF
water are among the determining causes
of trees being struck by lightning,
rather than the height of different trees.
He has pointed out that the rods used as
lightning conductors are so slender ;
that to be effective they ought to have
a section of at least 500 square milli-
metres.

HORSES CONSTANTLY STABBED. -
Horses that are kept up in the stable all
the year, and especially when they
have no change or variety of food, but
hay and oats, are very apt to get indi-
gestion or arrangement Of the stomach
or bowels in the form of want of appe-
tite, feverishness, quick breathing,
collie, gnawing of old wood, etc. When
a horse falls oil in flesh or i'll appetite,
or has any OF the above symptoms, the
most natural and simple mode of man
agement is to change his food, as by
giving him roots, or corn stalks, or
green fodder, or turning him through
the day TO grass. When the bad symp-
toms do not yield TO the employment Of
some such change of diet, the next
best thing to do, would be to make use
of the following powders, which have

ScAYLEr FEyER.-The Boston board
of health has Issued the following as a
circular, sending IL to every house in
the city. 1t deserves careful reading
Scarlet fever is like smallpox in its
power to spread rapidly from person to
person. Ii is highly contagious. The
disease shows its first signs in about
one week after exposure, as general
rule, and persons who escape the illness
during fortnight after exposure may
feel themselves safe from attack. Scarlet
fever, scarlatina, canker-rash and rash
fever are names of the one and the same
dangerous disease.
When a case OF scarlet fever occurs in
any family the sick person should be
placed i'm a room apart from the other
inmates of the house, and should De
nursed as far as possible by one person
oniy, The sick chamber should be well
warmed. Its furniture should be such
as will permit OF cleansing without in
iury. and all extra articles. such as
window drapery and woolen carpets,
shOuld be removed from the room
during the sickness. The family should
not mingle with other people. Visitors
TO an infected house should be warned
of the presence of dangerous disease
therein, and children, especially, should
not be admitted.
On recovery the sick person should
not ningle with the well until the
roughness OF the skin, due TO the dis
ease, shall have disappeared. A month
is considered an average period during
which isolation is needed The cloth
ing before being worn or used by the
patient or the nurse, should be cleansed
by boiling for at least one hour, or II
that cannot be done, by free aud pro-
longed exposure to outdoor air and
sunlight. The walls of the room should
De dry-rubbed, and the cloths used for
that purpose should be burned without
previous shaking. The ceiling should
be scraped ana whitened; The hoor
should be washed with soap and water,
and carbolic acid may be added 10 the
water-one pint to this or four gallons.
The infected clothing should be cleaned
by itself, and not sent TO the laundry.

Origin Of the Carbon in Pldnts.-lt has
long been known that the green parts OF
plants are able in sunlight TO decompose
carbonic acid and absorb the carbon. To
decide the question whether plants cen
take up carbon in any other way than
through their leaves, j. w, MOll under
took series of experiments which led to
he following results: Leaves and parts
of leaves kept continually in place free
from carbonie acid never form any per-
ceprible quantity of starch, even if in
immediate contact, by over or under
ground parts of the plant, with an
much richer in carbOnic
acid than the air. Hence the excess of
carboDic acid that is at the disposal OF
any portion you choose of a plant never
causes the production of a perceptible
quantity of starch in a leaf or part of
leaf united to il, if the leaf is kept in a
space free from carbonic acid. The
formation OF starch in leaf in open
air is not perceptibly nastened when
any other part OF the same plant is in
place containing more carbOnic acid
than the atmospheric air. The ca-bonic
acid at the disposal of the roots of a
plant, in the soil, neither causes the
formation OF starch in a leaf excluded
from carbonic acid nor perceptibly
has ems it in those in the open air.

Sui Wafer Driakers.-The Journal de
la Societe de Medicine de Cacn ct de
CalvadOs publishes the following account
of salt water drinkers, taken from an
account OF voyage to the oceanic
Islands by NJ. Jouan, ships captain,
and sent by him to u medical man at
Cacn. These remarkable people are met
wite on the madreporic atolls of the
Pacific, such AS the PaumotOn Islands
where there are neither brooks nor
springs, and where the wells which
have been dug yield only brackish
water. The vegetation is limited TO
few cocoanut trees, of which the milk,
with sea water, constitutes the only
drink of the natives. Ii is question
how nen can live when constantly using
liquid of which all bathers, who have
periorce swallowed few drops, know
the disagreeaDle qualities. Is it an effect
of habit, or a natural disposition, or
characteristic of race? Ii is mex
plicable; the fact, however, is affirmed
by the majority OF navigators who have
visited those distant shores. Cook ana
LaperOuse both mentioned it, and more
recently Dupetit-Thouars has described
the Inhabitants of Easter Island as true
amphibia, drinking sea-water without
feeling any Inconvenience from il. NJ.
Jouan concludes his observations on the
drinking of sea-water by fact which
he asserts to have seen at the beginning
of his sea-faring career, in 1885, while
going to Mexico. At that time, he
writes, steam navigation had not yet
freed ships from the influences of calms
and head winds. There was no distil-
ling apparatus, so that in long voyages
il was necessary TO be careful with tie
water; and in his ship, with the nut
Der ON board nearly doubled by so.ns
troops they had to convey, and the pros
pect of not finding any water on the
way since they were only going to
blockade the coast without cOmmuni-
eating with the shore, they were special
ly parsimoniOus in its use. Some sailors
consequently, began to drink sea water,
but were soon obliged To leave it of.
One man Ouly persevered until the ship
arrived at Mexico, when it was revictu-
aled with fresh water brought at great
expense from Havanna. This man
never complained of the sea-water; the
only difference remarked in him was
that he became more and more yellow.
