terrified by the appearance Of bloody hand
in the heavens, the sky above Democratic
New York, the home of Cleveland, was
illumined by an auroral arch. There are
omens in the sky.

"Bible Wlne."

Another side issue of our temper ance discussion is the so-called Bible wine" theory, which maintains that the wine used in Palestine in the time of Christ was not alcoholic. I have been unable to find evidence that the composition of the juice of the grape, the laws of fermentation, or the prac- tice in the making and using of wine were different in that country at that time from those in other countries, or in that country at other times; and believe It safe to say that the theory that Bible wine was different from other wine, that it had not the alcohol which other wines contain, is without any basis to support it, Tn the opinion of the student of science.-Professer Atwater, in the Century.

How Domestic Knowledge Can Be Turned
 to Pecuniary Profit.
 While there are many woman, busy thinkers and willing workers, in farm houses throughout the land anxious to solve the problem of self-support, com paratively few expect to find any solu- ton of it at home. They are willing to venture into unknown fields, to go to the great cities and toll as telegraph operators, as workers in industrial de- sign, and in a thousand ways, where they are required to meet increased expenses of living and the competition of the thousands who are drawn hither blythe attraction of city life. Only af- ter they have toiled for years and learned how much drudgery is re- quired to make bare living in single room in city boarding-house, do they turn back to the remembrance of the old farm-life with regret. Very few women are wise enough to turn their domestic knowledge to pecuniary profit, and when they do they are apt to trust their goods to some Woman's Fix change, instead of going to the city themselves and making their own bus mess arrangements with some grocer or agent, or with customers directly-a far better method whenever practical When they think of doing any thing of this kind, they instinctively turn to the greater cities, though they may be far soe+no1 oE 4o %bo llo,. nearer by. The markets of New York are better supplied than these smaller cities. It is not difficult to get good French bread in New York, which takes the place of the domestic article, but it is impossible to get even fair bread ir many of the larger and smaller in- land cities. Any farmer who brings in bread or homemade pies to these cities will meet with a ready remunerative sale for his wares. It is just three years ago since a wise young woman with strong affection for art, but a stronger common sense which kept her from in- dulging impracticable dreams, con ceived the idea of becoming ''home- made" baker. She began by making pies, taking care to use the best ma terials, allowing only small profit for herself on each pie. She lived within fifteen miles of city of eighty thou sand inhabitants, and her father was in the habit of going thither to retail some of his farm produce twice a week. Her pies found ready mar ket; then she began to make wheat and graham bread, charging only eight cents a loaf, and coming in competi- tion with the bakers, as she made 6 better loaf at about the same price. Her father, whose name stands at the head of her business, though the daughter has done the work, is now the largest baker in that city. His daughter employs ten or twelve hands, and con- tinues her work on plain domestic prin- ciples. There is room in that city for a number of other just such bakers. There is always a demand in the cities for cottage cheese or pot cheese which k frash and well made, The mass ot

A Dangerous Herb.

The Deputy of Oaxaca, MT. Perfect Carrera, has taken to the City of Mex leo a plant that grows in Mixtsca which the natives call the "herb of prophecy" It is taken in varying doses, and Tn few moments a sleep IS produced similar in all respects to, and we might say identical with, the hypnotic state, for the patient answers with closed eyes questions that are put to him, and is completely lnsensible. The pathologic state induced on whom soever partakeS of the herb brings with It a kind of prophetic gift and double slght. Furthermore, he loses his will, IS completely under the con trsl of another to such degree that the sleeping person would leap from balcony, shoot or stab himself at any moment if ordered to do so. On returning to himself hs remembers nothing of what he has done.-La Luz, Mexico.

Fasteur's Rabbit Destroyer FaIrurc.

The South Australian Register, to hand by the latest mail, contains an account of some experiments at Syd- ney with M. Pasteur's microbes of chicken cholera. A number of rabbits were inoculated with the microbes on a Saturday morning and placed under close supervision Tn isolated boxes; but on Monday the rabbits had not shown the slightest traces of the dis ease, which, according to M. Pasteur, should prove fatal in about twenty four hours. The experiments were not regarded as final. Microbes may be strengthened by cultivation; but that will be a matter of time.

Lovers of rubies may shortly expect to get their favorlte stones very cheap. The annexation of Burma has put the great ruby mines into the control of the government, and the question IS now raised as to whether the govern ment should not retain them and pre- vent the market from being glutted by over-production. The same thing happened IS years ago Tn Siam, when the sapphire mines were 80 over worked that the stones greatly dspre- 'ciated in value.

some of the Strange Fish That Live at the
 Bottom of the Ocean. ttWhnt an ndd fiShn1

Bottom Of the Ocean,
 s'What an odd fshp'
 An old member of the Maritime Ex- change was exhibiting in bottle one of the queerest submarine monsters that the fancy could paint It appar- ently had no beginning and no ending. One could hardly tell where its outlines left of, and the alcohol in which it was preserved began. It was like jelly.
 'It must be remembered" explained the owner, "that at the depth of one thousand fathoms the pressure upon a fish or any other body is equal to a ton to a square inch. These fabby looking fishes, that can be tied in knot at the surface, at such depths are firm-bodied and vigorous. When fish, adapted by organization to these depths, are brought to the surface, frequently their bodies arc ruptured, their viscera protude, their eyes start out and they present the appearance of having suf- fered frightful death. When the fish ascends and the pressure upon it's body becomes less and less, the gases in its body begins to expand and the expan- sion causes the demoralized appearance of the fish. If the fish could be popped out of the sea in an instant, It would probably explode with bang when it reached the surface.
 ''Just look at its jaws," continued the exhibitor. 'When tke fish are brought to the surface most of them appear to be soft, pulpy masses. The bones and muscles appear to be feebly developed. The tissues seem thin, weak and easily ruptured. These con- ditions, implying muscular weakness, are apparently inconsistent with the powerful shape of the jaws and the rapacious looking teeth of some of the predictions fishes" s.s.
 ''How do they live?"
 That is hard to say. To the ab- sence of light is due many of the most wonderful peculiarities of the deep-sea fish. Some of them are totally blind, having no eyes at all or mere rudi- mentary eyes. Others have huge eyes, so organized as to collect as many light rays as possible. Sunlight, it is said, does not penetrate to a depth of two hundred fathoms. If there is any light there at all it is the merest glim- mer and below that depth there is ab- solute darkness.
 ''Now these deep-sea fishes being cut off altogether from the sunlight, many of them furnish their own light They have no organized gas companies, but each furnishes his own light-carries a lantern or torch around with him. They have organs that emit a phos- phorescent gleam and shed light on their path. Some of them carry little torches in the form of tentacles that rise from the tops of the heads. Many of them have regular symmetrical rows of luminous spots on their sides. "-M r. MGiL and Express.
