strong feature in the garden.

The extensive museum in the garden
after the manner Of the London gar
den is rich treasure Of plants and
their products. This is as far as posi-
BILE a collection from the whole world
1t shows the wood, the leaf the flower
and fruit elf necessary preserved in
alcohoD the gums, resins, raw gutta
percha, the medicines as quinine,
strychnine, myrrh, etc., and all the
known products Of known plants of
every country.
The many kinds of coffee, with leaf,
flower and fruit Here are over 80
different kinds of fruit of the strych-
nine tree, most of it similar to ripe
walnut. The so called dog buttons
have the shape of lozenges. An in
teresting feature is the beautiful cloth
formed from the fbrous bast cells of
the trees and plants This is mainly
done in China. The cloth is mostly
used In the marine service. Of course
linen is the best example of such cloth
whose durability is demonstrated in
the Mummy wrappings The different
kinds of wood from each country is
arranged in groups. AS Palestine
with it's olive tree wood. Mexico and
Java send much yellow fruit similar
to oranges, lemons, and ripe cucumbers.
The famous Bread fruit from Trinidad
is similar in size and shape to big
water melon. It's surface looks Just
like that of the ears of red pop corn.
1t is eaten raw or cooked. Nature
presents very curious products from
such places as Madagascar, Zanzibar,
China, etc. The Jiant Flower of
Sumatra is weird looking specimen.
1t has 5 green sepals, 5 enormous,
wax colored thick petals and two dis
tinct broad shallow cups for it's some
so club shaped pistils to grow in. 1t
grows on the ground, being seslle. 1t
is fully 3 feet across.
Much grumbling exists among the
uneducated Germans visiting because
all names are marked in latin and they
can not understand it. 1t is rare to
find common name Of plant written
All the learned in Germany are sup
posed to have studded latin 3 or
years, and it would seem that that
amount of stud y had endowed some
with the idea that to write out the
common name of plant would deg grade
it beyond recognition. To write for
the dignifed term Quercus Nigra mere
ly the name black oak, might sink the
poor tree beyond redemption. The
American tact is shown by writing
both latin and common name so all can
get the benefit. Again Their is ten
dency in all Europe to use English
lettertype and also strong tendency
here as in America to have the form
of the written letters the same as type
letters which the old people have not
yet learned to read with ease. This
desultory sketch is but glimpse of
the vast accumulation of this univer-
sal garden. F. B. r.

THE END.

The New York canvass has been
completed and the democratic electors
received plurality of 1147 votes.
This insures the election of Grover
Cleveland and Thomas a Hendricks.
Republicans everywhere have grace
fully submitted to the verdict without
cry of fraud which was customary
when the shoe was on the other foot.
The vote throughout the country shows
that MIR. Blaine was exceedingly pop
ular with the masses.
