The world moves, 30 does science. We
have long been accustomed to read that

the cause of the plaque of cholera, small
pox, diptheria, spotted fever, indeed all
those diseases which have their origin
from vitiated condition of the air we
breathe. How to equalize the disturbed

schoebein named the substance which he
discovered Ozone. from the Greek word
.Ozein," signifying to smell. He supposed
that 1t was Oxygen in an active and highly
electromagnetic state. Ny observations do
oot warrant THESE conclusions, as SUBJ
stances (such as Chlorate of Potassa, etc.J,
that yield large quantities Of Oxygen give
but little Ozone, while others producing

quantities of Ozone. The most highly o9on--

leaves, Blood, ETC., ETC.; If the Mineral
salts, Alum, Sulphur, Chloride of Soda,
ETC., may be mentioned as agents. yielding
ozone in abundance. Ozone may be man
ufactured from all ozonized bodies by
chemical affinity, the evolution Of organic,
matter, and the rapid disintegration Of all
ozonized substances, either by means OF
heat, electricity or other forms of force
ozone Is the antiseptic principle Of every
substance possessing the power to preserve
animal and vegetable structures from de-
cay. The preseryatiye and purifying qual.
tiles of Salt, Carbolic Acid, Chloride. of
Lime, Alcohol. etc., are due to the presence
Of Ozone. -,
The Morning herald., 1878-05-17

1t was first discovered by schoenbein In
1889. In 1850, Andrews and Tait obtained
small quantities of it from Oxygen, by
means of pressure. 1t Is asserted by Loew
and Odling that Ozone contains three
atoms of fOxygen, while the latte 1has two
atoms, and that by compressing. 1t to one
ozone has also been produced by passing
series of electric sparks through Oxygen
Gas by applying Permanganate Of Potas-
So to Suiphuric Acid; by burning Phoe-
phorus in Ether or by forcing air through
a solution of Blood, Ether. Permanganate

he would give hundred dollars. The
pool-seller then said TO the crowd, ale

There was silence for moment, when

been buying pools, shouted--"Ill give

went up that almost broke up the sale.

A correspondent Of the New York
Commercial Advertiser, writing from
the Round Lake Camp Meeting, tells
the following story:
"Many people sleep in the same
tent here, being separated by parti-
tons. As young Methodist fellows
are thrown with pretty young ladies q
good deal, it is nothing against them
that they some times fall in love.
Last night, they say, this happened:
A young Methodist fellow from Ball
ston had become quite interested in
hetty daughter of a religious farmer.
Last night, while dozen Of cold-heart-
ed fellows were trying to sleep, they
were continually annoyed by the low
ers spoony talk, which they distinct
ly heard through the cloth partition.
They heard him say in low, sweet
Clarendon voice, "Now, Caroline, my
dear, do let me seal the vow-dol"
"No, James, / can not. What
would my father and mother say?" re-
piled sweet girlish voice.
"But, Caroline, you have promised
to be mine-now let us seal the vow
let us, do let us-won't you?-do kiss
mel"
"No, James, | cannot-ohl | can
not
In moment the tent partition part
ed, and big whiskered brother who
wanted to sleep, shouted, "For Heav.
ems sake, Caroline, let Jim seal that
vow. He'll keep us awake all night
il you don't!"
The vow was sealed.

straight and solid l didn't touch dat
tree; but when ! found one leaning q
little and hollow inside, l soon had
him down. So when the debil goes
