1t appears that the liability to sudden
death in fatty degeneration of the heart
has been somewhat overstated. The
latest investigations furnish IS cases of
sudden collapse from syncope or rupture
ont of So cases of the disease. The pecu-
liar swoon to which such patients are
liable, and which is the precursor Of
syncope, may be averted by regular
nutrient and stimulant regimen, COM
bined with careful a%bstention from causes
of exhaustion, according to the latest
authority on the subject; and thus
patients with heart disease may live on
to a good old age.

such II volcano is not incompatible with
the volcanic nature OF the planet.

SEES Of gum collecting ON the limbs Of cer-
tain kinds of trees, especially plum,
apricot, and others bearing stone fruits.
He finds that the oxidation is due to a
disease produced by the presence of
parasitic fungi; and when healthy trees
are inoculated with the gum thus pro-
duced, they speedily contract the dis
order, which is highly contagious. The
disease is disseminated by the drying of
the gum by oxidation, aud its circulation
in the wind, which thus watts the germs
for many rods, SO that one diseased tree
may infect a whole plantation.

1t appears from the testimony of ex-

from the ordinary type OF elephantiasis
in the initial symptoms. Swelling of the

the first indications of the former while
the precursor of the latter is a fever Of
ephemeral duration accompanied by q

y study of the dry rot in the twigs of

caused by a contagious and transmissible
disease, in which, as in the dry necrosis

minute bacteria, whose germs are after
wards disseminated by the rupture of the

An effort Is to be made, it seems, to
exterminate the condor, uniquely m
American bird, and believed to be the
highest flying, as well as the largest of
the vulture tribe. South American gov
ernments have issued mandates at least
to such effect. The condor lays its eggs
on the surfaces of rocks, 10, 600 feet above
the sea level, and scars to an altitude at
least 5000 feet higher; descending in a
few seconds with Il rapid swoop, from
the cold raretied air of the ETHEREAL
regions, TO the hot, sultry level of the
sea shore. The task of destruction will
not be an easy one with such habits as
these.

The running speed of express trains in
England has, if a member Of the London
Statistical Society is to be believed,
been considerably overstated heretofore
by persons who ought to know. The
highest running speed is that of express
trains on the London and Northwestern,
but is only a trifle in excess of three
quarters of a mile per minute-or 4G4
miles per hour, without allowance for
stoppages. Two other British lines run
expresses of the rate of 4j miles an hour !;
and the increase of speed during the last
ton years has averaged from three to five
miles in each hcurly ruu.

I'm fairly puzzled now, old friend,

And note the latest crHzes:
Ard lol the newest fad OF all
That fllls the female noodle

Girls never quote what savants say

But now It's voted quite q bore.
With Huxley and with Tyndau.
And even Arts forsaken now,

While pretty. critics wonder how
They rAvsd about u painter.
They're weary Of exploring slums
And watching uvhtered pigeonA
And all the rage at kettlcdruns
lstrying new religions.

Thus mad about the Magi.

bur bangles and bnnHnas.
But Fashion spreads n mental fsass
OF Shastras and Puranas.
When tea comes In the afternoons,
YOull see each verbal fencer
Raise hugh antaRonistic spoons,
With talk Of Herbert spencer;
You hear Of dear old BuddhA thea,
OF cSOtertc preaching.
