A Great Scientific Discovery.

A remarkable discovery has recently
been communicated to the Academy of
Natural Sciences, of Philadelphia, in re-
gard to reproduction in Ameba. the
well-known unicellular plant, found in
the blood of animals. 1t has been the
general belief that these low organisms
propagate only by division; but Dr.
Leidy reports two Independent observa-
tons, where reputable microscopists OBJ
served dust-like particles to be elected
from the cells, in all probability the an
alogues or equivalents ofspores in fungi
II confirmed. it viii place plants. former
ly thought to be exceptions, in line with
other departments of the vegetable king
dom that have two forms of reproduce
ton. DIR. Leidy, however, rarely puts
faith in any observations that are not
either well authenticated or are in line
with other observations; and the fact
that he believes these observations worthy
of announcement is a strong point in
favor of the reality of the phenomena.

CLEAN HANDS.
The Startling Crop of Micro-Organisms
Raised Upon Fair Hands.

The Startling Crop of Micro-Organism
Raised Upon Fair Hands.
According to the fearful experiments
of DR.. Forster, of the Italian Medical
Gazette, there is no such thing as the
possibility of clean hands on anybody.
Washed with soap and water, with car
bolic acid, with all and any of the dis
infectants in common use, our hands
will still remain scientifically unclean;
that is to say that preparation called
sterilized gelatine, absolutely destitute
of living organisms, on being touched
by the fingers thus washed and sup
posed to be clean, Immediately devel-
ops living organisms acquired from
the singers. But if the hands are
washed in dilute solution of bichloride
of mercury, or corrosive sublimate, one
part to one thousand parts of water,
perfect cleanliness is attained, and no
living organisms will be developed by
the touch of the fingers. 1t is pitiful
to think that we are really.4so palpably
made of the dust of the earth; out it
seems that we must endure it, since
corrosive sublimate can hardly be
made the adjunct of our daily toilettes,
and il it were, then the next time we
shook hands, or took up a book, or
went into the street, we should but de-
velop fresh crop of heterogeneous.
The fact is that these discoveries of
science show us, if they do nothing
else, how fearfully and wonderfully we
are made, and, if we regarded them
seriously, there is nothing we could
eat and nothing we could do which
would not make death seem to hang
imminent in the air. There is one
refuge for the unscientifc and that is
in whistling the whole matter down
the wind, keeping clean to the best Of
belief and thus taking care of ones
self, letting the Heterogeneous take
care Of themselves. Hopper Bazar.

PoPocATEPETL.


The Ancient Volcano transported Into the
Halls Of Litigation.
The ancient volcano Popocatepetl has
got into the courts. Not that it has
been bodily transported into the halls OF
litigation, but it is the subject of a novel
suit at law. For many years General
Ochoa has been the owner Of the volcano,
the highest point of land in North
America, together with all its appur-
tenances. The crater contains fine
quality of sulphur, which the General
has been extracting, giving employment
to Indians who cared to stay down in
the vaporous old crater. The property
was at one time fairly profitable, but
now it appears that the volcano was,
some time ago. mortgaged to Carlos
Recamier. who brings suit of foreclosure.
The papers have been joking about the
matter, some asking what Recaniier in
tends to do with his volcano when he
gets legal possession. He has been sol
emily warned that the law forbids the
carrying ont of the country ancient
monuments and objects of historic inter-
est.-Me1ico Cor. Boston Herald.

one cupful of white sugar, one-half
cupful sweet milk, two teaspoonfuls of
baking powder, lemon extract and two
cupfuls of Christian at Work.
There is no remedy of such general

ten will pass it in an emergency to seek
for something of far less Efficiency

hour or more. Wipe each piece, dip in
egg and bread crumbs, or simply in

%. H. Miller, in an article on the
management of orchards on warm
soils, says the orchardist who neglects
to care for his trees and feed the soil
has no more right to expect permanent
good results than the stock-grower has
who only occasionally feeds his live
stock.--Rural New Yorker.
AN English exchange says: Each
hen in house should have one foot of
space on the roosts. One hundred hens,
then would require four roosts twenty
five feet long, and to prevent the hens
crowding too much upon the roosts,
these should all be on the same level.
The roosts should be one foot apart,
and be arranged in a frame hinged to
the wall, so they can be lifted and
hooked up for the purpose of cleaning.

boiling water poured upon two table
spoonsful of uncooked hominy. Sim

"A delicious pie may be made of
canned pineapple. If the pineapple is
in slices, it should be chopped fine; to
one large cup of pineapple allow one
cup of sugar, half cup of butter, one
cup of sweet cream, four eggs; reserve
the whites for the top of the pie, as it
should have an under crust only. Do
not throw away the juice left in the
can; it makes nice flavoring for pud-
ding sauce, or with the addition of
little gelatine and sugar you may make

MAp-sroNEs.
Their Kmcacy Equaled by Burnt Bone or
Porous Earth.


Their Kmcacy EquAled by Burnt Bone or
Porous Earth.
Many so-caIled mad-stones have been
analysed. Faraday found one of the
most celebrated ones to be nothing but
the charred bone of deer, while others
have been found to be stones of different
materials having some absorbent powers
as such porous stones usually have.
There is no such thing as peculiar
stone known as the maidstone, and any,
thing having absorbent qualities, be it
burnt bone or porous earth or rock, may
be used as maidstone with equal pros
poets of success. 1t may possibly be
that, when the virus of rabid dog re-
mains in the wound, and before it has
entered the blood and circulatory sys-
tenn, bit of porous stone may draw it
out, and so would sucking the wound as
well. But the idea that q peculiar stone
called maidstone will remove the virus
of rabid dog from q persons blood
ranks with such other superstitions as
killing hog at certain phases of the
moon or weaving child by the signs of
the zodiac. 1t is, however, harmless
and cheap. and may possibly have .
greater influence ON the mind than the
body Chicago Nescs.

FULL DRESS FOR MEN.

Some New Points rs to the Cut OF the
Evening Suit . In Mode.
The last authoritative report. giving
in minutest detail the proper manner of
cutting dress suits, is as follows: The
length of the coat for man standing
five feet eight inches is eighteen and .
half inches to the waist and thirty-six
inches to the bottom of the skirt. The
back is cut with q moderately high
shoulder seam, a narrow back scye, q
side seam moderately curved and a
width at the tack of one and three
quarters inches. The gorge should be
cut slightly longer and lower than for a
double-breasted frock coat, and the
lapels. which are light, should be made
considerably peaked. They are spaced
for five holes, and are made to turn just
above the second hole from the bottom
The silk facing should extend only to
the end of the collar. The iapels at the
bottom are very slightly rounded and
the skirts at the hips are turned very lit
tie. and at the bottom they are rounded
even less. The edges are bound with
very narrow binding. The sleeves are
cut so as to be shapcIy. having but little
fullness at the top. and are made just
large enough at The bottom to inclose
linked cuffs smoothly. They are finished
to initiate tolerably deep cuffs. and close
with two holes and buttons. The fronts
should just meet at the termination of
the roll when pressed close to the body,
and below that point are well cut away.
The vest closes with four buttons so
spaced that the opening corresponds
with that of the coat. The length should
be the same as that of the coat TO the
bottom of the strap. The collar is so
curved that the opening resembles a
shield in shape.
The trousers conform TO the outline Of
the leg in more shapely manner than
when made for business or day wear.
The side seams should be plain. They
are well shaped over the calf and about
the ankle, in order that upon the foot
they may fall as smoothly as possible.
The pockets should be placed in the
waist seam.-Boston Herald.

SAFETY MARKS.

How Bank Checks Can BE Made .
Perfectly Safe Circulating Medium.
An important and valuable invention
is acheck protector. The machine is
a small hand arrangement that punches
series of small round holes through
the paper, forming figures, with large
stop holes at each end. Chlorine will
remove writing ink and leave the paper
free from discoloration. so that larger
amount can then be written in without
detection. Even tinted checks are
operated on quite as easily as plain or
water-hned ones. 1t is a fact very well
known to all rogues, and should be to
all business men, that enclosing several
rows of small uniform points on the
face of check, instead of affording
protection. positively renders fraudu-
lent alteration more easy and detection
more difficult, as, after moistening. the
raised points can easily be rubbed down
with paper-holder, the ink removed
and replaced, and the dies of another
stamp of the same make carefully
worked into the same ruptures, covering
ail defects and restoring the genuine
appearance. But once let the figures
be perforated through the paper, the
portions displaced being removed with
out mutiluing or weakening the check
and then your amount is unalterably
fixed upon the cheeky. Y. Moa oad

CURING HAMS.
The Famous Recipe Used by Mrs. Henry
Clay for Curing Meats.

The Famous Recipe Used by Mrs. Henry
Clay for Curing Meats.
The following is the famous recipe
used by Mrs. Henry Clay for curing
hams, several hogs heads of which were
annually sent to Boston, where under
the name of ashland HAMS" they
commanded the highest price. especially
among the wealthy Wings of that city.
For every ten hams of moderate size
she took three and one-haf pounds Of
fine salt, one pound of saltpeter and
two pounds of brown sugar, and after
mixing them thoroughly together,
rubbed the hams Herewith on either
side. They were then packed in q
tight box and placed in cool onthouse
for about three weeks, when the hams
were taken out and put in a picking
tub or hogshead and covered with brine
strong enough to swim an egg. After
remaining in the pickle for about three
weeks, they were taken out, rubbed
with fresh salt, and hung up in we'll
ventilated house for few DAYS to dry,
after which they were transferred to
the smoke-house, where they were hung
up and smoked with green hickory or
walnut wood until they had acquired
the color of bright mahogany, when
each ham was sewed up in canvas, the
coverings whitewashed, and hung up
to dry, after which tiey were white
washed again and packed away in hogs
heads with hickory ashes, until wanted
either for home use or sending TO

THE PLAYFUL WASP.

Johnny Tells All ABOUT the BUSINESS 6u~
terprIse of This Funny Bird.
The wasp is very funny bird; he
bss two wings. four legs and light
clog rod. He is not as useful as the
hen, but all the same he lays for
humans.
Last summer old Mrs. Bogmyre's
baby fell down on a wasp. But when
the wasp let 60, old Mrs. Bogmyre's
baby went right up pushing clouds. :"
Soon after that s.Bill Squacks" sat
down on one. But Bill didn't linger,
he seemed willing and anxious to rise.
Then he went capering off home, He
had to carry himself in sling for
long time.
Wasps do not have to be tanned, they
are always tame enough. When one
comes up sly-like and whispers some
thing in my ear, it makes me weep to
think they are so familiar with man.
And then / wish they would never
come nearer than mile away.
Wasps build their nests in focks.
And it is dangerous to go near the nest
while the old ones are sitting.
Once, grandfather owned a bull and
. wasp nest at the same time. / went
out to the farm to spend vacation.
The old bull seemed to take an inter-
est in me from the start, and didn't act
as though be wanted me to play out in
the field. So l let him chase me up to
the fence corner, where the plum tree
was that had the nest in, then Ipunched
the nest with q stick Just to see if the
wasps were at home. and out came the
wasps like pop out of a pop bottle. One
old civil engineer wasp slid down an
imaginary line and brought up on the
old bulls nose. A thrill of wild delight
seemed to 60 clear through the bull.
He reared up on his hind feet and
beekoaed for me to come over and have
some. But declined. Then he yelled
TO the cows to come and see what he
had found, but by the time they arrived
ne seemed satisfied and with a couple
of toots he signaled off brakes and
tried race with himself down to the
back field. giving vent to his glee in
loud snorts. As he went, he pointed
his tail up. thought that was prob
ably the road he wanted me to take.
About this time the cows saw the
joke, and they seemed as anxious as he
to go off to some quiet place and smile.
One old cow had to leave or burst right
out laughing, SO she winked to the rest
as if to say Come, ladies. let us re.
tire," then they gamboled off down to
where the bull was. to talk it over with
him. ~se
forgot about the wasps and climbed
upon the fence to see the race. But just
tsen an old business wasp dove down,
pricked open his misery bag and vac
cinated me in the neck; then jumped
down and ran to the house. / couldn' 4
see very well from there any way.
If you ever see an old wasp Kind OF
smiling like, and backing up towards
you at the same time, and acting as
though he had load of something he
wanted to dump, you want to fee; don't
stop to argue; if you do you win be
bowed down with sorrow, bumped up
with sadness, and do your fleeing after.
wards.
think the best way to handle wasps
is to let the job to some one else and
then 90 off on visit.-Peck's Sun.
