Plants grown on the side of hills have
been found to withstand severe frosts better
than those grown in the valleys, because the
latter are subjected to more frequent
changes of temperature. Last winter Herr
Hoffman made very careful examination
of the effect on vegetation of hard frost at
Giessen. Very little injury was done TO
plants at the topsof hills, but those in shelf
cred valleys were greatly damaged. The
frost appeared to be more harmless the
higher the exposed plant grew. Tender
fruit trees placed in favorable positions on
the low ground stood the lowest tempera-
ture, 23o Eeaumur. One remarkable
fact was that the foliage of the south
side of one and the same bush was destroyed,
while that of thenorth side remained green.

plants are thoroughly frozen the killing
takes place as surely whether the tempera-
ture of the plant be raised twenty degrees

degree of less variation the injury is pro-
portionately less. and for each species the

A PUZZLE FOR THE DOCTORS.
A Needle Which Penetrated Lady's Foot
Works Itself Out of Her Child.

LOUISVILLE COurler-JOurnRI, March
A most extraordinary natural accident,
and one for the discussion of physicians.
came to light few days ago, in which a
needle taken into the foot of lady nine
years ago worked out of the thigh of her
third child, a baby of one year. The lady
in question is the wife of Mr.. Harry IsaacS,
the cigarmaker, who lives on Market street,
near Wenzel At the time of the
accident Mrs. Isaacs was unmar-
ried and was then Miss Pauline Cob
lens. The needle was encountered in
a carpet and penetrated her foot the
full length. A physician was called in i'm
mediately, but the needle could not be
found, although it was known TO be in the
foot. She suffered great pain, and for four
months was unable to leave her bed. Dur
ing that period three physicians made fire.
Quent attempts 10 extract the needle, and
the knife was used extensively, however.
without success Miss Coblens was quite
fleshy before the accident, but fell off greatly
from her long confinement. At length she
was able to get about with the aid of
crutches. but she continued to suffer from
the needle. The pain decreased gradually
from the time she was able to get about,
and she regained her former feshiness
Finally she felt the needle only at
periods, when there was change
in the weather. The movement of the
needle seemed to be upward, and the point
was not stationary, but moved with the
needle. About five years ago she was mar
ried to Mr.. Harry Isaacs. Three children
are the fruit of that union, the youngest of
which is boy named Arthur, who is about
year old. The pain which troubled the
mother left her even before the birth of her
child, and the total disappearance of the
pain she was wont TO feel was a subject of
remark and pleasure to her. On Monday a
week ago her baby, who had since its birth
manifested a kindly disposition, was very
restless and cried INCREASINGLY all night The
cause of the child's ailment was not discov-
cred until the following morning, when in
giving it bath the mother discovered
something black protruding through the
skin of the child's thigh. She caught
hold of it, and was frightened when
she found the thing of a resisting sub
stance. She, however, used little force,
and soon extracted the dark object.
Imagine her surprise when she found il was
a needle, black and corroded The eye
broke of in her hand while examining it.
The recollection of the needle, which had
caused her much pain, came wildly before
the mother, and she felt keenly for her
child. The remembrance of her relief from
the pain also forced itself on the mother,
and the connection of the two served as a
clew as to how the needle came to be in the
childs thigh The mother says it would be
almost impossible for the child to nave
taken up the needle without her finding il
out, as the child would have made it known
in piteous cries as it did when the needle
worked out

OUR YOUNG FOLKS.
Lost. n Boy.

Lost, n Boy.
He went from the old home hearthstone
Only two years ago,
A laughing. rollicking fellow
IL would do you good to know:
Since then we have not seen him,
And we say, with nameless pain,
The boy that we knew and loved 50
We shall never see again.
One bearing the name we gave him
Comes home TO us to-day,
But this is not the dear fellow
We kissed and sent away.
Tall as the man he calls father.
With a mans look I'm his face,
Is he who takes by the hearthstone
The lost boys olden place.
We miss the laugh that made music
Wherever the lost boy went,
This man has a smile most winsome,
His eyes have grave intent;
We know he is thinking and planning
His way in the world of men.
And we can not help but love him,
But we lang for our boy again.
We are proud of this manly fellow
Who comes to take his place,
With hints Of the vanishing boyhood
In his earnest. thoughtful face;
And yet comes back the longing
For the boy we must henceforth miss,
Whom we sent away from the heartnstone
Forever with a kiss.
