Two Pleasing Pictures.

Some one has beautifully said: "Kind-
ness is slowed away in the heart like
rose leaves in a drawer, to sweeten
every object around" A little girl Of
about nj me years old was walking along
a muddy street in Chicago; her father
heldsher hand, and seemed very tender
in his care of her. The quality and
style of their garments limited strongly
of wealth, while the strong, good face
of the father, and the loving, sweet one
of his child, told of something better
than wealth-even of depth of hearts.

the mud was thicker and the wind blew

DIR. Hollands Death.

| Or. Holland was told by his ply
slclans. four years ago, that he would
not live more than ten wears at the
longest, and might die without warning
at any moment. He had been edu-
Gated as physician, and knew very
well the meaning of occasional sharp
pains which affected his heart in mo-
ments of excitement. It was partly in
preparation for sudden death that he
sold out his interest in Scribner's Mag
azine, and put his business in such or
der that whatever he possessed would
not be involved in business complica-
| tons. He was edtor-in-chief OF the
Century Magazine, but had no proprie-
tary interest in it. Two years ago DR..
Holland had to abandon lecture tour
from ill health. Since then he has de-
voted himself to quiet work, editing the
magazine which he founded, re-editing
a new and complete edition of his books.
which Scribner & Co. are about to is
sue. He passed great deal of his time
at his country place, Bonnicastle, on an
island in the St. Lawrence River. Dur
ing the last summer he has been so
much better that he began to lay plans
for more work. He had designs made
for building eleven cottages on his es-
tate for rental to New Workers. New
ertheless, the heart trouble still made
itself manifest at times, and Mr.. r. H.
Glider, DIR. Hollands assistant for
many years, said that last summer any
unusual excitement would bring on a
sharp pain in his breast. DR.. Holland
had yacht, of which he was very
proud, believing it to be the fastest on
the river. Whenever race occurred
DR.. Holland 8 excitement was such that
in more than one instance he was
obliged to drop the wheel, owing to the
pain which warned him OF the danger.
On the 5th of October DR.. Holland
returned with his family to the city,
and went to work inapparently excel
lent spirits, seeming to be stronger than
he had been for some years. He came
down to the Office every day, and was
engaged there yesterday most of the
day in writing and attending to editori-
al duties. Late in the afternoon he
went to look at some glass work of Mr..
La Forge. He went home apparently
in good health. This morning at six
o'clock ne awoke, complaining of slight
pain. After talking to his wife for
few moments he became speeches.. A
doctor was hurriedly sent for, but DIR.
Holland was dead before the doctor ar
rived. Mrs. Holland and Mr.. Hollands
two daughters were present at the
death-bed. The action of the heart
seemed to have stopped suddenly, and
he died apnarentlv without main in a
comatose condition. DIR. Kollandleaves
wife--one of the Chaplin family Of
Springfield, whom he married when
twenty two years old-two unmarried
daughters and one son, Theodore Hol-
land, who is at present in the senior
class at Yale, and was sent for this
morning. Tt. Holland was a regular
attendant at church since his removal

The following calculation as to the
total number Of existing botanical spe-
cies has been made by DIR. Muller, Of
Geneva: We have at present in our
books about 10000 species, and, IL we
suppose that 10000 lin round numbers)
belong to countries like Europe and
North America, where there are hardly
any species, but some cryptograms to be
discovered, the remainder, or 100, 900,
representing exotic plants, more or less
tropical and southern, we may double
the latter for new species, giving 2OO,-
600 for these less known regions, and
altogether 100000 for the whole globe,
with the exception of countries still
quite unknown botanically. Adding
only 10000 for the latter we reach a
minimum sum of 100000 species of
plants. ..o

When rivers are much warmer than
the dir, they give rise to fogs, because
the rapid evaporation from the warm
water pours more water into the atmos-
phere than it can hold suspended in an
invisible state, and consequently the
surplus vapor is condensed into mist by
the colder air through which it rises.
There are conditions Of atmosphere when
no actual fog is apparent in which dark
ness prevails, and what are called dry
fogs, or sometimes blight. In some
cases they are clearly due to. smoke, as,
for instance, the smoke of burning
pairies, which may extend over vast
distances.

in Italy, at which a Heidelberg professor
said that experience had convinced him
of the importance of examining the
organs of hearing of engineers and fire
men on locomotives, both before ap-
pointing them and every two years OF
so while in service. The sense Of hear.
ing becomes impaired from various
causes, and often without the knowledge
of the person suffering from it. Defects
In this sense are not less dangerous than
color blindness, and sometimes more
difficult to discover.

Feeding Poultry.

A practical poultry-grower writes TO
the World that the only rule as to guam
tity in feeding poultry is to give them
all they will readily eat, and no more.
The greatest possible variety of food
should be given, keeping in mind that
corn in any form is fattening, while
wheat, buckwheat and oats are egg
producing in about the order named.
Green food, and especially onions,
should be fed regularly, with plenti-
full supply of clean, fresh water placed
where the fowls can have constant ao-
cess to it.
