POPULAR SCIENCE.

THE smallest known Towering plant,
tcarcely visible to the naked eye, is
VOLTA microscopic, water weed OF
india. Two species of the same genus,
the larger about one twenty-ffth of an
inch in diameter, grow in the Eastern
United States.
Two FRENCH biologists havs been
making experiments in typhoid fever
vaccination. In mice inoculated with
cultures of typhoid baeilli, genuine ty-
phoid fever seemed to be produced, but
in mice inoculated with broth in which
the germs had lived, but no longer con-
tanning them, subsequent incubation
with the most intense typhoid virus was
resisted.
ANOTHER important invention in rail-
way practice is the method invented by
Baltimore electrician for welding steel
rails by electricity, which will enable
track layers to lay continuous track.
The ends of the rails, after they are
placed in the track, are welded together
through the application Of a transformed
electric current, and are afterward tenn
pered so as to make the joint as hard as
the rest Of the rail.
A FRENCH physician mentions a curl
GUS case of left-handedness. One child
in a certain family was left-handed, and
a second appeared, at the age of l year,
also to be left-handed. 1t was then
learned that the mother always carried
her child on her left arm. She was adj
ylsed to carry her child on her right.
The infant, having its right arm free,
began to grasp objects with it, and soon
became right-handed.
NIGHTINGALEs build at the bottom
Of hedges and shrubs. They use dry
oak leaves, and arrange them according
to the direction in which the leaves

one another, like plates in a coat of

of grass and small roots; but the loose
grass Of the outside is so deceptive that
only skillful observer can guess that
the mass Of dry leaves he sees huddled
together among twigs and grasses is
save a heap of refuse left be-
hind by some winter whirlwind.

Very DimInUtiye People.

At Cassville, Barry county, 1 became
acquainted with Samuel Gilmore, q
farmer. 40 years of age, who is only two
feet nine inches tall and weighs forty six
pounds, He is justice of the peace
and has been for nine years. He owns
a farm of 800 acres, and looks after its
IL engagement himself. He has received
offers from showmen, but has refused
them all, preferring to remain upon his
farm. He is married, his wife being a
medium sized woman, and has five child
rem. At Paris, the county seat of Mon
roe count, [ met two young ladies who
are actually bellies of the place, and yet
are mere children in size. The elder is
now IN her twenty second year and is
two feet e'even inches in height and
weighs tifty-four pounds. Her sister is
III her eighte enth year and weighs forty
one pounds. She has long light hair
and is just the size of six-year-old
child. They are really the handsom-
est little women [ ever saw. They dress
stylishly, have classical cducations, are
accomplished musicians, and have trav
eled extensively. They come of a pro-
minent and well-known family, and their
father, who is now dead, was man over
six feet tall. Their mother is woman
of medium size.-Kansas city Times.

Largest Family in the World.

How many Smiths are there in En-
gland?
It is impossible to answer this ques-
ton with precision, but there are data
from which an approximately correct
idea may be obtained, says Chambers
Journal. The Register General tells
US that in 1856 it was possible to esti-
mate, from certain records in his keep
ing, that there were then living in En-
gland and Wales about 253, 900 Smiths,
or one in every seventy-three persons
composing the entire population. Sup
posing that this estimate was correct,
and that the same proportion has since
been maintained, the statement may
fairly be made that there are now about
355,S or over one-third of q million
Smiths in England and Wales. It is
not quite easy to realize at once what an
enormous number of people these fig
ures represent.
A few simple illustrations may serve
to make the matter clearer. For in
stance, there are more Smiths in En-
gland and Wales than there are people
in Dublin-indeed, excluding London,
there are only four towns in the United
Kingdom-namely, Birmingham, Glas-
gov, Liverpool, and Manchester-con-
tanning more people than there are
Smiths, while twenty-six out of the
fifty-two counties OF England and Wales,
OF one-half, have fewer people than the
immortal house Of Smith has represen-
tatives.
1t is on record, too, that in the seven
teen years between and including 1888
and 1854, 2S6, O37 Smiths were registered
as having been either born or married,
Or as having died.
Although, as every one knows, Smiths
form numerically the strongest tribe in
England, there being one Smith to
every seventy-three persons comprising
the population, still the Joneses run
them very close, there being one in
every seventy-six persons. Next in
order on the list, according to officially
compiled statistics, come the Messrs-
Williams, Taylor, Davis, and Brown.
Mr.. Robinson, who is commonly as
sociated with Messrs. Brown and Jones,
stands eleventh on the list in respect of
his relative numerical strength.

Love and Marriage.

Common sense is Mt its best in mar
rlage, and the truest marriages are based
upon 1t; Marry your daughters when
you can, your sons when you may, the
Spaniards teach. We do not preach
this, but quote it. There are no mar
riages so uncertain as love unions, be-
cause love is apt to be the enthusiasm
Of seltishness. Fashionable novelists
and singers teach no remedy for the
corning soul but marriage. Love must
end i'll death or the altar. Cold water,
ioy cold, say medinm- sized bucketful,
poured down the back three times day,
followed by brisk rubbing with a coarse
towel and long walbs,i is the best remedy
for the unsatislied yearnings of IL timid,
trusting soul. We offer it to the public
rs orr remedy, much us one of our con
iempoIaries olf.ls its cholera mixture,
aud we guarantee cure.-N. J. Herdtd.
