by a comparison of analyses of soils
from different vineyards, the last re-
port of the Scottish Horticultural asso
citation shows that the soils on which
the grape-crops fail are deficient in
lime and potash.
Professor Delgado Of Lisbon has
come to the conclusion that the ances-
tors of the modern Portuguese were
canibals. He has found the remains
of lao persons whose bones were
blackened by fire split lengthwise to
secure the marrow and bearing other
indubitable marks of having served as
food for man.
The deepest sounding ever made was
in the Pacific ocean in 1874, near the
entrance to Behring's sea-. The depth
was 1855 fathoms, and the cast was
made from the United States ship
Tusc trora. The shalloWest water in
the middle Of the Atlantic, 73l faith

rine mountains 1856 feet high.
Herr Weller. experimenting at Tub
ingen, has discovered that the growth
of plants is more rapid under dimin-
ished atmospheric p~ressure-all other
external conditions being the same
than at normal pressure. On the
other hand, increasing the pressure
} lessons the rate of growth, the mini
mum being reached at two or two and
one-half atmospheres.
Deaf-mutes have been taught to
speak and to understand speech by
noticing the movements of the lips.
It is stated that M. Wanerke has pro-
dueed photographs showing the form
assumed by the lips for each sound,
and that these pictures have enabled
inexperienced persons to recognize the
different articulations. Such photo.
graphs ought to be of great value in
giving instruction to deaf-mutes.
DR.. Bremen in a German journal
advocates exercise in the high, fine all

against the diseases contracted in city
life. The characteristics of the noun

nudity, the high per cent. of ozone,
the strong light and isolation, the
freedom from dust and bacteria. All
these act well on the bodily health.
The lungs Work with greater strength,
the heart beats faster, the blood circu-

Payment Of Debts.

A large number of people seem to
fancy, when paying a bill, that they
are comforting a great favor upon the
man who has entrusted his goods TO
their home for weeks and even months.
They act as if they had received actu-
ally nothing in return, and were sim
ply doing d work of charity. The man
who buys commodities of any kind
usually does so of his own accord; or
dinarily there is nothing compulsory
about the transaction. He makes his
purchase and gets the worth OF his
money, presumably, in goods of what
ever kind. This places buyer and sell
Ter on an equality. If the buyer could
make a better bargain elsewhere, very
likely he would do it-for in trade,
when dollars and cents are involved,
friendship doesn't count for much.
People 60 where they can get the most
for their money. Having done so, the
seller confers a favor upon the buyer,
at least equal to that which the former
receives in payment of his bill. Then
why should a collector be subjected to
so much discourtesy? A well-bred
man, n who has a proper apprecia-
ton of what is due to others, is never
guilty of such impoliteness. The col,
lector who calls for his money is treat
ed with as much respect and consider
alton as is shown the buyer when he
makes purchases, This department
should be universal, and the man who
departs from it, and who pays the
money he honestly owes grndgingly
and with all marked expressions OF i'll
will toward the receiving party, is
lacking in one of the most important
essentials of fair and square manliness
and more than that, in business tact

American Indians as Cannibuys.
Mr.. Charles Thwing, in the Ameri
can Magazine Of History, calls atten
tion to the fact often alluded to by
Parkman, Shea and Bancroft, as well
by Charlevoix and the older chroni-
clers. that the American Indians were
frequently guilty of cannibalism. He
says:
Little attention has been given,
either by scientists or historians, to
the evidence for the existence of eanni-
balism among the native tribes of
North America. Yet the fact, not
only of its existence. but of it's recent
existence, rests upon abundant histor-
lc and archaeological proof. The Jesuit
fathers who explored Canada, the early
voyagers in the West Indies, the first
visitors of the Pacific coast, as well as
the conquerors of Mexico, all unite in
giving the most explicit testimony to
the existence of aboriginal man-eating
tribes. Brebeuf, who came from
France s a missionary to this country
in the early part of the seventeenth
century, gives in his report for 1886
IN account of the fate of certain pris-
oners taken by the Hurons. After de-
scribing the torture he goes on to say
that s'if the victim had shown courage
the heart was first roasted, cut into
small pieces, and given to the young
men and boys to increase their courage.
The body was then divided, thrown
into kettles and eaten by the assembly
the head being the portion of the
chief. Many Of the Hurons joined in
the feast with reluctance and horror
while others took pleasure in ii"
Father Hennepin, writing forty years
later, also speaks of the Hurons as
practicing cannibalism.
The most powerful and cruel of the
northern tribes was the Iroquois; and
all testimony seems to prove that it
was most addicted to the habit of eating
human flesh. The Jesuit missionaries
were in many cases eyewitness OF
the orgies Of this people. One of their
feasts, celebrating a victory over the
Algonquins, is thus described by vi
mont: Some bring wood, others go
in search of water, and n puts the
great kettles on the fire. The butch
cry is near. They dismember those
they are going to kill, tearing them in
pieces, throwing feet and legs, arm
and hands in the same pot, which they
boil with as much joy as the poor cap
tives have heart-aehe in seeing their
companions served IS a meal to these
wolves. In a wore, they eat the men
with as great an appetite and more joy
than hunters eat a boar or a deer,
From the evidence we possess, it APP
pears that no tribe delighted more in
human flesh as a staple article of food
than the Caribs, inhabitants OF one of
! the West Indian islands. Peter Mar
tyr, who visited the new world a few
years after Its discovery by Columbus.
gives a full account of their practice.

Ho,v s,reet Herbs are Used,

I'm
Few persons are aware to what ex-
tent sweet herbs are used in this
country. We recently gave some ac-
count, says the New York Times, of a
noted English herb and flower farm,
the products of which are used for the
manufacture of various fragrant esser-
tial oils and essences. Since then.
believing that this culture might be
made a source of profit to many of
those members of farmers families
who are willing and anxious to devote
spare time to such work as they may
be capable OF, we have made some in
quiries in regard to the use of these
flowers and herbs. And it is rather
surprising to find that there is a con-
siderable consumption of them here,
but all are imported, with the except
ion of the oil produced from pepper
I mint, and of that a considerable guam
tity is exported. OF this kind Of oils
the following are staple articles OF sale
and consumption by perfumers, drug
gists, artists, and others; the present
market values are attached to the arti-
eles: Anise, $1.75 per pound; berga-

DIVE Best Families.


I have been troubled for over six years with
a severe kidney complaint, also a weakness
of the urinary organs. with its attendant
troubles. My water needed constant atten-
ton, some days as many as twenty times,
with severe pains in the bladder, rs well as
in the back and loins. At times / passed a
limited quantity of urine, highly co.ored with
unnatural heat and sediment; frequently
excavations would be very painful. l con-
cluded that / must do something for it, felr-
ing that moe serious trouble would follow.
IWent to the druggist and was recommended
to use Hunts Remedy, as it had been used
with wonderful success in sev g al severe csses
of dropsy and kidney and bladder alec ions
here in Bangor. | concluded to try it, and
before I had used one bottle found it was
helping me beyond my expectations. My
water Eecame more natural, less color and
sediment, the pains in back and that heavy
feeling gore, with a general toning up of the
system; and 1 continued to use it until fused
six bottles, and it has completely cured me.
Others of my family have used Hunts
Remedy with equally as good success, and
we do not hesitate to recommend it far and
near, believing it duty as well as a pleasure
to recommend so good a medicine as Hunts
Remedy. You are at liberty to give my
testimony to the public. D.. L. HoDGDEN.

rae FasNmeace of Forests

The influence Of forests upon eli
mate and fertility is IS yet but poorly
understood BY ven the more profess
sional class Of farmers. It is q prob
lem that can be solved only by obser-
vations extending over considerable
periods DC time. But the influence is
plainly observable and its explanation
simple. Strip the hills Of their pro-
tectirg forests, and the thin covering
Of sod which oyerlays their rocky slopes
win soon be washed down into the
valleys and into the beds Of streams
and rivers. Periodical freshets will
result which viii eventually carry
away the best soil from even the val
Ieys. One authority declares that #

How the Ahyssinians Woo.


In Abyssinia the young people begin
70 think Of marriage at a very early
age. When a lad wishes to marry. he
only inquiries for q girl who possesses
or can muster twice his own number
OF oxen, or their value. His proposals
are made to the girls father, and unless
there is some strong motive for reject
ing him, he is accepted, and everything
arranged without consulting the lady's
taste or asking her consent. They are
usually betrothed three or four months
before marriage, during which time
the bridegroom frequently visits his
fat~her-in-law elect, and occasionally
propitiates him with gifts of honey,
butter, a sheep or goat; but he is never
allowed to see his intended wife even
for Q moment, unless by urgent en-
treaty, or Q handsome bride, he induces
some female friend of her to arrange
the matter by procuring him a glance
at his cruel fair one.
For this purpose he conceals him
self behind a door. or other convenient
hiding-plaee, while the lady, on some
pretext or other, is led pasti il. Should
she, however, suspect a trick and dis
cover him, she would make a great
uproar, cover her face. and screaming,
run away and hide herself, as though
her sense of propriety were greatly
offended by the intrusion; although
previously to his making the offer, she
would have thought it no harm to
romp with him or any other male
acquaintance in the most free and
easy manner. For after she has been
betrothed, she is at home to every one
except to him who most signs for the
Light of her countenance. In Tigre,
especially in Ghirie, a superstitious
belief is entertained that If a girl
leaves her fathers house during the
interval between her betrothal and
marriage, she will be bitten by a snake.

There are innumerable instances where cures have
been effected by Rosadalis for all diseases of the
