done wisely, however, in declining to

Mr.. Manning leaf Of absence from all

Invention of a Smoking Machine.

M. Prentysa Frenchman, has invented
a smoking machine" Tobacco manu-
facturers make their cigars out of quite
a large number of different leaves, whose
physical and chemical qualities have to
be so combined as to yield an article that
gives out an agreeable odor and burns
well. Combustibility, then, is physical
quality that must be estimated for each
variety OF leaf. Such estimate is made
by measuring the time during which
'ertain style of cigar, made solely from
he tobacco to be tested, holds its fire
Without drawing on it a second time. In
this comparative determination the
intensity Of the lighting is the element
that has to be determined and
regulated. To accomplish this is
the object of the machine: which is so
constructedsas to initiate all the motions

The latest theory-by no means q re-
assuring one-as to the nature and
origin of scarlet fever is that it may be
had direct from the cow" and is, in
short, the form assumed in human
beings by some originally vaccine dis
ease. An epidemic, or rather several
epidemics, of scarlet fever in Marylebone,
Hampstead and other districts has been
traced to certain milk. Every care has
been taken to'discover whether the milk
could have been infected after leaving
the COW, and on full investigation this
theory has been excluded. One of the
cows, "the appearance of which was
least satisfactory" has now been bought
and conveyed to the Brown institution,
where experiments are being made with
the milk and other secretions. The
sanitary officers of the Marylebone dis
trict certainly deserve credit for the
promptitude with which they seem to
have nipped in the bud what might have
become formidable epidemic, and for
the care with which they have conducted
an investigation which may lead to i'm
portant scientific results.-Pall Mall

AM Anal Hor.e-pealer.. warrantr.


The following is the literal translation
Of a certificate recently given by an
Arab householder TO one of his GUS
toners:
an the name of God, compassionate
and merciful, thanks be to God the Lord
Of the universe. Prayer and health TO
the most illustrious of the prophets, to
his posterity and to all His friends.
Thanks be to God that by his will the
armament moves, that by his mighty
power He has created the world. the
birds, horses, and every living thing, and
to Adam also, whom He commanded
His angels themselves to honor To
some of these beings living from the ere.
alton the Lord promised his favor, hep
piness and paradise, and for others He
decreed scorn and His vengeance, which
is the hell announced from eternity.
Thus it is, as the Lord hath said, He has
omitted nothing from the book which
was for the pleasure of man. He has
granted to him the passion of love for
women, of affection for children, for
thoroughbred horses, for birds, and for
every living thing, and for gold and sill
yer heaped up to hundred-weights. And
he has also said, the stable of your horse
shall drive away your enemies and those
Of your God. His shoulders are glory,
his entrails are hidden treasures, and his
neigh serves to drive away the
devil and his princes. All this
that has been said comes from
the prophet (Mohama) on the subject of
horses, and on him may the prayer and
the peace of God rest And finally this

ETC Old custom Of "Round-r,owing.'


The village of Minussinsk, in Russia,
has been troubled BY the pest among its
COWS, and the conscript fathers of the
community held a meeting to decide
upon the best means Of putting stop to
the calamity. 1T was agreed that re-
sort should be had to the old Slavonic
custom of round-plowing. A Russian
paper gives an account of the process.
Seven virgins, two old women, and a
young bachelor Of good character are
elected. Atmidnight procession of the
peasants issformed, led by the two old
women carrying pictures Of saints. In
the rear Of the procession the seven
maidens are harnessed to a plow, which
is guided by the young man. A light
furrow is plowed around the village; and
thereby, according TO the belief of the
local agriculturist, a barrierais provided
against the evil spirit. He has no power
to pass over the mystical furrow Chi

A LIBERAL EDUCATION.
A Terrible Waste OF Money and Time
Sometimes Incurred.


Sometimes Incurred.
Boston Budget
There Is O very common, but very in.
definite, phrase current in the world
about men who have enjoyed theS adj
vantage of a liberal education" As
generally understood, this phrase means
a university education, or q complete
course OF four years in college, car
rying with ]: q regular diploma at the
close. The graduates of all colleges are
tacltly and eX-oflicio ''liberally edu-
Gated, while the fellows who have not
en- Dyed the advantages of q classical or
public university education are set
down, by inevitable implication, as un.
educated or educated in manner re-
verse from liberal.
1t ought to be manifest enough that
universities and diplomas can confer
upon a man little or no claim to be con-
sldered literally educated, unless he has
IN him the anteccdent elements of
broad and liberal culture. If young
man carries university in his head,
and demonstrates his capacity by an
early and invincible thirst for knowl-
edge, to which he will sacrifice all other
objects, it matter little where or how
he secures the great end of his exist
ence, to wit, liberal education. He
may never darken the door of any col
iege by his presence, and may yet, by
MS unaided efforts, acquire and main
tain a rank in the hierarchy of scholars
which the best educated university pro
fessors might look upon with envy and
emulation.
And, on the other hand, young
man without natural aptitude for
thought and study, and undistinguished
BY that unappeasable zeal for knowl-
edge, may go passably through
seven years course of classical learning,
and come out with sheepskin diploma,
certifying that he has graduated" a
bachelor of arts, when, in fact, he is
not practically master of the rudiments
OF a single science
1t is terrible waste of money and
time to educate by a liberal college
course those who have no fitness for
study and no love for learning. How
many ambitious but mistaken parents
have spoiled good engineer or farmer,
or mechanic, or artist, by turning a
deaf ear to all suggestions of fitness,
and compelling their son to study
Greek, Latin and Hebrew for the min
istry, orGreek and Latin without the
Hebrew for the medical profession or
the bar Is it any wonder that the
pulpit is filled with so many unimpres-
sive and unimproving preachers, or the
other learned professions, when this
forced and unnatural process of educa-
ton is considered.
The rais ireetea energies of thousands
have been expended upon the vain at
tempt to make fine classical scholars out
of those who had not a particle of tai
ent save for practical affairs. The
waste of material is the saddest fact in
life. To find ones true vocation com
monty costs man from one to three
failures in attempting a false one, and
q heavy proportion of those thus crop
ing after q career break down in the
search before reaching any real element
of success.

Rheumatism

It is d1s established fact that Hoods Sar- saparilla has proven an invaluable remedy in many severe cases of rheumatism, effect ing remarkable cures by it's powerful action in correcting the acidity of the blood, which is the cause of the disease, and purifying and enriehing the vital fluid.
 It 5s certainly foir to assume that what Hoods Sarsaparilla has done for others it will do for you. Therefore, if you suffer the pains and aches of rheumatism, give this potent remedy a fair trial.
 A Positive Cure.
 CT was troubled very much with Fheuma- tism in my hips, ankles, and wrists. I could hardly walk, and was confined to my bed a good deal of the time.
