RELIC.

What's this? A lock of woman's hair
Among my dusty papers:
-Tis Ike a breath Of country air
In London smoke and vapors-
. Golden tress. An yes, know,
Twas Ethel's hair twelve years ago.
Twelve years ago. How strangely times
Have altered, since together
We listened to the village chimes
out there among the heather.
We listened, after church on Sunday,
Careless of colds and Mrs. Grundy.
And, oh that day. that glorious day
When, floating down the river,
While Cookham Lock behind us lay,
We plighted troth together.
The future, and still more the present,
To Us lust then seemed not unpleasant.
sweet Ethel, Still / seem to see
Alas, It's only seeming
That golden head quite close TO me.
Those tender, dark eyes beaming.
The lips from which came, soft and low,
The murmured .'Yes, twelve years ago.
And then, why did We panse so long.
know loved yop dearly
IN those old days; how things went wrong.
can't remember clearly.
We loved, and yet somehow we tarried,
TIL both got tired and you got-married
An well. I'll put the tress away,
In this old escritoire;
Last time We met your hair was gray,
And now-we meet no more
Above your grave the grasses mingle,
And am forty, fat and single.

A Locomotive D.so,yiedon.

So far as been generally known hith-
erto the power of voluntary locomotion
of plants from place to place is confined
to members of the lower orders of cryp-
togames, manly, alga and flung; but an
interesting case of voluntary motion
among dicotyledonous plants, in species
of LOrdnthus, has been discovered by DIR.
G. Watt, of the Educational Department,
Bengal, Lower Provinces. 1t is only
while the seed is terminating that the
motion takes place, but the mode of travel
ing is very peculiar and quite different
from that of any other known plant. The
plant is a native of Bengal, and like all
other members of the genus is parasitical,
growing upon a few evergreen trees,
particularly upon some species of Mem
ecyton. The fruit. like that of its relat-
i've, mistletoe and nearly all other men,
bers of the order, consists of mass of
very viseid pulp surrounding single
seed, and on separating from the parent
plant adheres to whatever it may chance
to fall upon, and after time begins to
germinate. 1t is only during the first
stage of termination that the motion to
be described takes place, and it is evident
that the power of being able to move
about is to enable the plant to find suit
able place to grow upon. The radicle
at first grows out, and when it has at
tanned length of about an inch it devel-
ops upon its extremity fattened disk,
and then curves about until the disk Is
applied to any object that is near at
hand. If the spot upon which the disk
fastens is suitable for further develop
ment of the plant, termination contin-
ues, and no locomotion takes place; but
if, on the contrary, the spot should not
be favorable, the terminating emsryo
has the power of changing its position.
This is accomplished by the adhesive
radicle raising the seed and advancing
it to another spot; or, to make the pro-
gress palmer, the disk at the end of the
radicle adheres very tightly to whatever
it is applied; the radicle itself straight
ems and tears the viscid berry away
from whatever it has adhered to, and
raises it in the air. The radicle then
again curves and carries the berry to an
other spot, where it again adheres.
The disk then releases itself, and by
the curving about of the radicle is ad-
vanced to another spot, where it again
fixes itself. DIR. Watt says he has seen
this repeated several times, so that to
certain extent the young embryo, still
within the seed, moves about. 1t seems
to select certain places in preference to
others, particularly the leaves, which in
the Men'ecylon are evergreen and very
dense. The berries ON falling are al
most certain to alight on the leaves, and,
although many germinate thereon, they
have been frequently observed to move
off the leaves on to the stems, and finally
fasten there.

The Management of Kitchen Boilers.

The principal complaint the householder
has to make is that of rumbling or pound
ing noise IN the boiler This noise, most
heard on ironing days, when hot fire Is
Kept In the range and not much hot water
is used, Is oecasioned by steam being gen.
Grated In the wster-back, which, when il
meets with water cold enough to condense
it, produces a vacuum The water coming
together again to fill this void space causes
the Conclusion which makes this NOISE.
The generation of steam is also often due
to the fact that the water back has too
much heating surface for the capacity of
the boiler and the domestic requirements
for hot water. To stop this noise and get
rid of the steam, 1. is the custom to open
the hot-water faucet. This will accom-
phsh it. but, if the hot-water faucet Is
opened suddenly, there is danger of the
boiler collapsing If it be copper one, for
the reasen that the cold water suddenly re-
turning TO i'll the space occupied by the
steam, condenses the steam instantly and
produces the vacuum which results in the
collapse of the boiler 1t is safer to open
the hOt-water faucet very slowly, ana thus
prevent the sudden condensation of the
steam. The risk of collapse Is also greater
in city where the water pressure Is very
light, as in New York, for the steam meets
with 90 little resistance by reason of want
of pressure that it more readily forms and
more easily forces the water out of the
boiler through the pipes back to the street
main. The other danger is the bursting of
the water-back and the consequent demo-
Ition of the range This is solely due to
ignorance or carelessness. If range fire
is let down on a cold night. and the water
in the water-back or in the connecting
pipes between it and the boiler becomes
frozen, 50 that circulation is impeded, the
building of fire in the range under such
circumstances is almost certain to cause an
explosion, which might prove fatal TO life
as well as disastrous to property; for II is
manifest that as soon as the water-back
becomes heated, steam is generated. and if
it is confined and not permitted to circu-
late, something has to give way. and an
explosion is the result. The same thing
might occur If both the hot and ccld water
pipes became frozen. Householders should
therefore see to 1t that during cold weather
a fire is kept in the range, so that this
freezing up might not occur. If for any
reason it Is necessary to let the fire out for
any period, care should be taken to empty
the boiler, to uncouple 1t from the water
back, and to blow out all the water that
may be in the water-back by using a
plumbers force-pump for the purpose.
Explosions have been known to occur he
cause so-called plumbers have disconnected
the boiler for repairs, and forgotten to blow
the water out of the water-back, which
afterward became frozen, and then, when
connecting it again, neglected to ascertain
whether the means of circulation were
impeded or not. Sanitary Engineer.

Recent investigations respecting the
chemical constituents of tobacco fumes,
confirm the olden view of the presence OF
nicotine. 1t has, however, been ascertained
tha. nicotine appears mostly in the form
of salts having plcoline for their Dase'
Other substances of q similar composition
are generated In the act Of smoking, which
seem 10 form under the influence of the
varying quantities of water in the tobacco
and its mode of combustion. Ihas the
use of the pipe develops the highly diffu-
sible and narcotic pyndin, while cigar
smoking gives rise to larger quantities OF
colidin. There exists only one remedy
for the cure of chronic tobacco poisoning,
but that is so prompt and eficacious that
n,ne other is needed. Unfortunately there
exists also q very grest and frequently an
insurmountable prejudice among smokers
against its employment. 1t is the absti'
Ience from tobacco.
