There has at different times been consider
able speculation as to what would be done
with the ground ON which the palace of the
Tuileries stood, says the London Telegraph.
Before 1t was decided that the ruined pile
should be definitely removed, various sug-
gestions were made, but no resolution was ar
rived at. Since the site was cleared of the
charred walls 1t has been occupied by
wooden structures, which were utilized for the
general postoflice, pending the completion of
the new building. These light and airy
edfces have, In their turn, disappeared, and
at the present moment their place has been
taken by booths belonging to the fair, which
is still In full swing. OF course this cannot
be prolonged forever. The ground on which
in Paris, lying as 1t does, between the Tuileries
Carrousel and the Louvre on the other. 1t
has more than once been suggested that a
garden should be laid out on the site, thus
continuing the pretty flower beds in front of
the now vanished palace, The construction OF
a museum has been another out OF various
propositions. To-day, however, NJ. Lockroy,
Minister of Public Instruction, announced his
intention of bringing bill before Parliament
for the laying out of a garden on this area,
which is some ten acres in extent. For the
present, he added, sweet simplicity would be
studied as much as possible, as subsequently O
portion or the whole of the site would be oc-
cupicd by monument in honor Of the revo-
luton. What form this monument is to take
is not yet explained, but 1t may safely be pre-
sumed that such an idea will not be carried
out without exciting strong protests in various
quarters.

A TURKEY CARRIED 1T.
A Fowl Gives Diphtheria ito the Fam
of Veterinary.

n IoWt UlNes Diphbherlh kto the Eamiiy
of Veterinary,
A fowl with diptheria was brought to the
house of a veterinary surgeon on April "A, and
died on the Goth. The feeding and nursing.of the
bird developed on lad, aged IA, who was as
sisted by his brother, aged 8. On the evening
of May IL, the writer was called to see the
little boy of 8, who had been poorly for day
or two He had enlarged cervical glands on
the left side, which had come on rapidly. He
was delicate little fellow, with fair hair and
aummc aspect. The fauces were more or les
covered with diphtheritic memrbane, the left
tonsil more especially. Under the administra-
ton of biniodide Of mercury and iron the
throat symptoms cleared up and the child
made good recovery, On the day after this
case was first seen, the boy who fed the fowl
was very feverish and had similar patches over
his iauces, but not to the same extent as his
brother. A sister, aged 0, had also similar
explosion on the fauces. On the 18th, the
mother, who nursed them, was attacked and
was similarly treated. They were all kept well
up with beef tea and stlmulants II British

THE DOGS SCENT.
what Does He Follow Whom Pursuing n
Buggy Track?


OF late much has been written on the
sense of smell in dogs, and the following
is to me puzzling instance. l frequently
go to place in the country in pursuit of
the early grouse, and of course some
Climbers go with me, champion Johnny
invariably being one of the party. When
l drive to the postolllce for my mail or
elsewhere on business the dogs are shut
up in the house. Johnny then watches
for an opportunity to steal away.
If he succeeds in doing so, see him
running along the road that my buggy
has Travelled, nose to the ground, taking
no notice of the approaching vehicle,
until call to him. when he trots home
after me perfectly contented. He has
never overtaken the trap, so do not
know what he would do in that case.
1t makes not the least difference what
road | travel, he follows every time he
can make his escape. Now what scent
does he follow up2 The horses2 The
