Sunlight.

It is o familiar fact that q p~otato-vine
growing in q dark cellar is white, puny,
and without strength. 1t would be al
most precisely the same with a child
confined to a dark room. 1t is also well
known that light is somehow essential
to health, and that simple sunshine is
the best medicine in many diseases.
But it is not known how the hygienic
effect is exerted, though there is reason
to believe the effect is mainly due, not
to the color rays, but to the actinic
the invisible rays that paint the pic
ture in the photograph. and penetrate
to the seed beneath the sod and quicken
it's germ.
Some experiments, however, recently
presented to the English Royal Society,
have a bearing on the solution of the
question. They prove that the pres.
ence of light, but especially of direct
sunshine, prevents the Development OF
the microscopic fungi Which ore ascot
ated with pu~trefaction and decay. When
there are germs already present in a
liquid, it destroys them, and perfectly
preserves. a putrescible fluid in which
they have not yet been developed.
While this preservative quality is most
powerful in the direct rays of the sun,
it also exists in diffused light.
The hygiene of light will doubtless
sometime be fully understood. Mean
while we know enough to make it a sin
against health not to let the sun have
freest admission to all our dwellings.

An AutOcrat OF Credit.

A New York correspondent writes:
John Brown has been in the Stewart
concern for a quarter Of a century or
more, and has risen to a very important
position in the palace Of fashion. Heis a
quiet looking man, Of courteous man
ners, and is one of that class ordinarily
called a "shop walker" Mr.. Brown,
however, has q vastly mor important
duty than ordinary men OF this class.
He is the autocrat of credit, and has tor
wears studied the vast range Of high life
with a view to know the ability to pay.
He has q list of the substantial portion
of the fashionable world, and also n
of the doubtful class, to which is added
a general and rapid view of the trash
which fits about the world OF show.
Every year Brown makes out o new list,
bat such is the change in social life that
each month calls for fresh inspection.
Brown has his "tickler" Gas the book is
called in commercial parlance) but he
carries it's contents to a very large ex-
tent in his head, and he is ready
when any lady's name is mentioned to
give an Immediate reply. Hence it IS
very important for fashionable shoppers
to be in good odor with the autocrat OF
credit, and many is the favorable tale
poured into his ear by importunate
ladies, but when duty requires it ne IS
hard as flint. Many of those who tor,
merly paid cash now want credit, and
there are ladies who ran bills at Stew
arts of 800, 900 in o year. The collector
ia out all the time. He walks about ill.,
teen miles q day, and takes on an aver
age a hundred refusals to ten that pay.
This kind of business is undesirable,
but it is found to be unavoidable, and
the collector learns a sad lesson OF the
falsehood of the fashionable world. No
doubt it was much the same in Pope's
day. for he tells of n "who paid a
tradesman once to make him stare"

Prince Murat.

A despatch from London announces
The death of Prince Lucien Charles
Francois Napoleon Murat. He was the
Youngest son of Joachim Murat, a cele-
brated French General and King Of Ma
pies (1808), his mother being Caroline
Marie Annonaade Napoleon, sister Of
Napoleon I. He was born in Milan,
May 16, 1903, and after living near his
mother until 1924, he went to Spain,
where, on the suspicion of being on a
REASONABLE errand, he was arrested and
thrown into prison. After his liberation
he came to the United States and mar
ried q Miss Fraser, his wife earning a
support by teaching. He returned TO
France in 1848, and was elected to the
constituent and Legislative assemblies.
He was envoy extraordinary. and MINIS 1e
ter plenipotentiary to Turn IN !o4S'
and became senator on January 20, loo2:
Tn 1853 he received the title OF prince OF
the imperial family. In 1860, when the
Ronrbons were expelled from Naples,
Mnrat mt forth his claims to the throne
Of the Two Sicilies, but at the instance
OF Napoleon III. he soon publicly dis
claimed his intentions. In 1871 he was
With Bazaine in Metz, and When the city
c%apitulated he was made prisoner. His
eldest son, Joseph Joachim Napoleon,
born in Paris July 81, 1884, has been
since 1866 colonel in the French army,
and in April, 1872, obtained leave to
serve four years in the Swedish army.

HOmesickneSs.

So commonplace a disorder as home
sickness has been made the subject of
scientific investigation. DR.. a.. Rey
gives it a Aigh-sounding name, emo
stalgia," and regards it as O form OF in
sanity from which grown men often suf-
fer severely, and of which they some
times die. He gives particulars of his
observations among the French soldiery,
where it is of very frequent occurrence,
more particularly among the infantry.
The cavalryman, be thinks, is less liable
to suffer in this way, probably because
he has less leisure tune on his hands.
It is the young foot soldier who is prone
to pine for his native place. The young
conscript becomes gloomy and taciturn,
loses his appetite, is fond of solitude,
and often gives way to tears. He sui
fers from incessant headache and is un-
able to sleep, and after a while, unless
he can be aroused and interested in his
surroundings and distracted from his
dreams of home and friends, gradually
becomes the victim of general prostra'
ton, followed by delirium, and some:
times by death. DR.. Rey believes that
children do not often suffer in this way,
nor do very old persons; and women are
less liable to it than men.

The Shape of q Dogs Nose.

81 say the dogs nose was blunt and
stubby," exclaimed the beefy man,
shaking his fists and rolling his head.
~ reckon I have eyes, and I dont need
to put on specs to tell a dogs nose
from an ice-pick when I see it !"
"Maybe not when you're SOBER" said
the lathy man, ''but if you say. that
dogs nose wasn't sharp and pointed,
you was too drunk to tell a lamp.post
from q toothpick, and consistently your
judgement was too foggy to know much,
and if you bet on it you'll back down or
lose. I saw the dog before sunrise,
when I hadn't touched a drop, an |
say 'pinted' an stand by it up for all
I'm worth, and you dasent meet me.
The crowd by this time had increased
to a jam, and was growing faster than a
bill of costs.
The beefy man reiterated his opinion
with a loud voice, and said he would
wager all of his property, and every
thing he could borrow on the correct
ness of his proposition.
The crowd grew larger and blocked
up the street. Those on the outer edge
stood On tip-tos with open mouths and
eager eyes looking at the backs OF others
and wondering what they were doing
there, and what it was all about.
The lathy man glanced around at the
crowd, winked at the beefy man, and
said : ,
81 guess that'l do, Sam, save the rest
for next time" and stepping upon q
box which mad not been noticed, he held
up a bottle and put his lungs to work:
'"Here you are, gentlemen. The
Great North Anne ;ican Wart, Corn and
Bunion Extractor | Sure as death, and
cheaper than you all feel; only twenty
five cents a bottle, and cheap at half the
money" ...
Every man in the crowd said "Soldl"
and suddenly lost all further interest in
the shape the dogs nose.- Cincinnati

What an Earthquake Is Like.

A correspondent writing to o friend In
Montreal from Caracas, Venezuela, gives
the following additional interesting de-
tails of the late earthquake shocks: We
had, about $40 ?. M, as lively a shake
as I want to experience. I first heard a
loud, rumbling noise, ana then it SEEM
ed as though q ~thousand-ton engine was
rushing over the pavements, and then a
scream like a hundred engines run mad,
and then the house began to shake and
the floor began to rise up, and about
that time 7 was in the open yard. There
were a few risings in the foor of the
yard, and all was over so far as Caracas
was concerned. A few pictures and
mirrors fell to the ground in some Of
the houses; in the cathedral an image or
two fell down-and nothing more. But
the town of Qua, about twelve miles
from here-a beautiful and fourishing
place-was by the same shock entirely
destroyed, and from three hundred to
four hundred lives lost. Our President
has sent money, provisions and troops
to the place, and has done everything
possible to alleviate the suferings of the
people. His wife, china Belen," and
family rushed into the plaza and had
tents put up, and for many days slept
therein. Thousands of people left town
that day; in fact, all that could; the rest
slept in the rlaza, some in tents and on
cots, but the majority on the benches
and on the sidewalks, and for a few days
the appearance of the city was really ludi-
crous-every park, square, wide street.
or open place was filled with tents, and
the middle of the streets with soldiers
under arms. Mosquerias coffee yard
the one you visited while here-was fill
ed with ~people-one hundred to one
hundred and ffty-sleeping there night
ly for a week or more, some on the bare
ground and some under tents, and the
tents we're wonderful to behold, both
there and in town. Tents, shanties,
gypsy encampments, tents of canvas,
white, striped and speckled, Of calico, of
coffee bags: of old sheets and of paper
anything answered. Finally things be-
came more quiet; we had daily shocks,
but light ones; people began to sleep
in their houses.

No Bones in the Ocean.

Mr.. Jeffrey has established the fact
that bones disappear in the ocean: BY
dredging, it is common to bring up teeth,
but rarely vel q bone Of any kind;
these, however compact, dissolve if e1-
posed to the action of the water but a
little time. On the contrary, teeth
which are not bones any more than
whales are fsh-resist the destroying
action of sea water indefinitely. It is,
therefore, q powerful solvent. Still the
popular opinion is that it is a brine. Il
such were the case, the bottom of all
seas would, long ago, have been shall
lowed by immense a~ccumulations of car
casses and products of the vegetable
kingdom constantly floating into them.
Dentine, the peculiar material of which
teeth are formed, and the enamel Gov
ering them, offer extraordinary resist
ance to these chemical agencies which
resolve other animal remains into moth
ineness. Mounds in the West, tumui
in Europe and Asia, which are believed
to antedate sacred history for thousands
of years, yield up perfectly sound teeth,
on which time appears to have made no
impression whatever.

How Victoria Became Engaged.

There have been published severa
newspaper accounts of how the Princes
Victoria brought Prince Albert to thu
popping point. The following is thu
latest sketch of that delicate affair. L
is not at all like the others, but reads
pretty withal. It is by "Ignatius,"
writer for the London Figaro:
Certainly the young queen thought
less of England than of marriage. The
Ministers would fain have made hel
marriage o sort Of international treaty,
Beyond all doubt, Victoria was the
finest match in the world. The queen,
however, was full of a host of little
projects, ever shifting and changing like
the little heaps of sand the children
raise in the garden of the Luxembourg
She told her mother she would wed
with no one whom she did not love,
The Duchess Of Kent reported the
speech to the ministers, who thought it
revolutionary in the extreme. Corona.
ton day came, and the next day the
ball at Windsor. Among the dancers
was a tall, handsome, slender student,
from the University OF Bonn - her
cousin-a Coburg, like herself. The
queen noticed him, and Prince Albert
did not return to Bonn. Even had he
not loved he would have stayed; and he
loved. But his cousin was the queen
Here the woman had to make the adj
vance. Victoria, deeply touched as she
was by this love, (which was never
more to leave herr could not easily
conquer the maiden timidity due to her
severe education. Nevertheless the
morning came. I assure you I invent
nothing. Although the queen has not
consented to relate these delightful in.
cidents, Prince Albert has told them to
his friends.
Nevertheless, then, q morning came.
They were riding together, he and she,
down the great avenue of oaks at Wind
sor: Those oaks were younger then,
but old enough already. After q gallop
they found themselves alone. We know
how how dangerous it is for nan and
woman to ride together. Suddenly the
queen took a sprig !of h~oneysuckle from
her bosom. and, stopping, offered it to
Prince Albert. Bending to reach it, his
lips touched the tips of his cousins
gloves. Perhaps twas the fault of the
horses. The woods Of England and
France know well how many loves the
noble brutes have been the cause. A
silence followed, more sweet than any
thing ever sung to the heart of Mozart.
Next morning Prince Albert still wore
the h%oneysuckle in his button hole.
He kept it ever when it had faded. A
fortnight after that ride the plenipoten-
tiary minister handed King Leopold of
Belgium q tiny letter, closed by an
enormous red seal, as though it had a
mighty secret of state. Itbegan, my
Dear Uncle" and was signed "Vic-
toria."
A month later the queen mentioned
her intention to marry Prince Albert OF
Sake Coburg- Goth to her ministers.
She asked their counsel, but with a
pretty air of decision which caused them
to reply with "a Unanimous Eyes,"
The wedding took place on the 10th Of
February, 1910. The Queen of England
married for love-Lord Melbourne was
right when he told England that the
queens marriage was the queens ro-
nance.

Western Hurricanes.

The frequency with which reports
come of disastrous hurricanes in the
West, like that which proved 30 destruc-
tive in the town of Richmond, O., sug-
geats the propriety Of choosing nearer
home the scenes to be depicted in the
biographies, in Which the effects of
fierce gales are shown. These pictures
are commonly of West Indian land
scapes, but there is reason to believe
that destructive hurricanes are as COM
mon in some parts of our " country
az in the border lands of the tropics.
The West, from Central Indiana to the
great Rocky Mountain chain, is in effect
one vast wind-swept plain, broken here
and there to the eye, but in the main
nearly as level rs the sea. The wind
sweeps over it without let or hindrance,
acquiring tremendous force and veloci-
ty, and when sudden changes of tenn
perature and of barometric pressure
occur in any part of the vast area of the
plain, the rush of wind is irresistible.
The writer of this paragraph has seen
the sudden bursting of these western
storms on more than n occasion, and
certainly only personal acquaintance
with them a give n an adequate
notion of their character.
A cloud shows itself sharply outlined
against the sky, just above the horizon,
usually when there are no other clouds
to be seen. As it rises a strong sea
green tint mingles with it's blackness.
A few minutes suffice for it's passage
from horizon to horizon, amid the pro-
foundest stiffness of the atmosphere.
Then come little whirling gusts, striking
suddenly and suddenly ceasing their
ftful disturbance. Then in the midst
of the stiffness the storm strikes straight
out from the shoulder. Its onset re-
sembles nothing 80 much as tie sudden,
resistless blow of a prgilist delivered
without warning. It hits the earth, and
the earth trembles. Houses, trees, fences
90 down before it-not blown over, but
knocked down. They do not sway and
totter, but fall PROSTATE at once to be
whirled forward like leaves. They are
crushed, mangled, shattered by the first
blow. They have been hit suddenly as
by a solid bolt, not blown upon by IN
increasing wind. They have been
crushed by a hurricane, not toppled
over by q gale. There is q great dark
ness, too, oven all the landscape what
ever the time of day may be, and its
blackness adds to the terror of the de-
struction which it conceals. One sees
nothing and hears nothing but the
shrieking of the gale. BE is alone with
the giant forces of nature and is utterly
at their mercy.
The hurricane lasts only q few min
ntes, ending as suddenly as it began,
but when the sun appears again it is to
shine upon a landscape so changed by
the malignant forces that have been
playing upon it that one may scarcely
know whether he is still living or has
passed into the land of shadows.
