pauper. while diphtheria, Group, whooping cough
and scarlet fever are more prevalent among the
rich. Consumption and pneumonia claim the poor,
who are comparatively free from brain fever There
is apparently some advantage in being rich.
In some recent scientific experiments on the
effects of cold two frogs frozen solid in tenn
perature of about 20' Fahrenheit and in that con-
dition for half AN hour. On tbawing slowly they
recovered perfectly, but it found that long
periods of exposure invariably killed the animals
The experiment was tried of freezing Theoretically
sealed meat, SO as to kill its bacterial organisms
and thus render it incapable of putrefying 1t was
found, however, that low a temperature as 800
below zero would not destroy tse vitality of
micro-organisms. 1t was thus made clear that
the attempts to preserve meat for long time by a
mementary freezing of it must be abandoned
