THE LAUGHING PLANT.-A plant
whose seeds produce effects analogous to
those of laughing gas is mentioned by
Palgrave as belonging to Arabia. Two
varieties are known, one attaining q
height of three to four feet, with woody
stems, wide-spreading branches, and
light green foliage. The seeds are black,
resembling a French bean in size and
shape, and have sweet taste, flavor
somewhat like opium, and sickening
odor. Small doses of the pulverized
seeds give rise to peculiar manifesto
tiens. The person laughs boisterously,
sings, dances, and cuts up all kinds of
fantastic capers. The excitement con-
tinues about an hour, when the subject
falls into deep sleep of an hour or
more, and awakeas utterly unconscious
of his late rid 'culous behavior.

A LOST ART REsToRED.-The fine blue
pigment which still retains its freshness
in the fresco paintings of Pompeii has
not been used since the fall of the
Roman Empire, when its manufacture
seems to have been abandoned. Guided
by his own analyses and instructions
left by Vitruvius, Prof. Fouque, of the
College of France, has succeeded in re-
producing the ancient pigment. 1t is a
double copper calcium silica, oxide Of
copper and lime. The crystals are pro-
duced, with fux, at a bright red heat,
but are changed into green glass if the
temperature is much exceeded. The
beauty and permanence of the pigment,
with the ease of preparing it and its
cheapness, are likely to bring it again
into use. ..

SAND DRIFTs.-Dry, loose sand, where
ever it occurs, is constantly being shifted
by the wind, and often buries cultivated
lands, buildings, and forests. On the
shores of Lake Michigan are drifts 100
feet deep, and those of Cornwall reach
300 feet in depth, while the drifts of the
Cobb Desert are 40 miles long and 900
feet high in places. On the shores of
the Bay of Biscay the drifting sand
travels inland 16 feet year, in parts of
Denmark "a feet, and in Southern India
II yards. In some places walls and
barriers of vegetation have been created
to stop the destroying drifts. Fine sand
is taken up to a great height in the air,
and deposited many miles away. In 1882
Iceland was visited by remarkable
sand-storm, lasting two weeks, which
hid the sun and objects few yards off
like dense fog, and caused the death
of thousands of sheep and horses.

While it followed too closely upon the
Christmas festivities in the several churches
to create the interest which at any other
time it must have attracted, the concert I'M
der the direction Of Prof. C. w. Weeks, at
the Baptist church, on Friday evening last,
was greeted by a fair attendance, and proved
very successful. The programme was made
up of twelve numbers, one of which was in.
strumental and the remainder vocal. The
feature of the concert was a chorus Of one
hundred voices, something in the way that
Ottawa has not enjoyed for long time.
Five of the number were given over to the
chorus, which, led by Prof. Weeks, was very
effective.

Great Clearing Out wiuter Sale
Commences to day at the sold Reliable, -
which means a general slaughter of all and
everything pertaining to the winter stock
This will afford the rarest opportunity for
the purchase of all lines, from the most COM
plete stock in the county, at what would
seem rs ruinously low prices.
This stock is the largest in the city and
especially prominent are all the leading lines
Of heavy goods, such as beaver shawls,
blankets, fannels, all.woolen dress goods
trcots, broadclo,hs, flannel suitings, as we'll
as the silk stock, all of which lines will be
sold at great reduction during the contin.
uance of this sale.
The cloak stock, which has outstripped all
competitors, is still in good condition,
sizes being all filed up during the holi'
days, and now, as the season is fast
drawing to close, in no case will customer
be allowed to 60 who can find a garment to
suit. The price will be made satisfactory in
all cases if they will pay for either the max
ing or the material. This stock should be
examined by all parties who have even the
remo,est idea of purchasing this season.
The fact is, the entire stock at this house IS
too Jig-tbere is too much money in it which
it is preferred to turn into cash, and a
material sacrifice will be made in all lines
as an inducement to cash buyers.
The sale will be conducted entirely with a
view to reduction of stock and will be on
the basis of low prices on standard and guar
anteed qualities Of goods; and the house is
confident that these prices will not be met
by any other house in the county.

AGRAND MUSICAL TREAT
On Friday evening, Jan lS, at which time
Mons. Divide Musin, the world greatest
violinist will appear.
This distinguished and phenomenal artist
was born in Llege, Belgium, in 1854 AT
the early age of eight he evinced SO remark
able talent aud strong inclination for music
that his father sent him to the Royal Con,
servatory of Liege, where he received the first
prize for violin playing when but boy of
eleven Meanwhile, his father endeavored
TO persuade him to abandon music as pro
fession, but this was impossible The boy
rapidly developed musical talent which is
only born of true genius,
In 1870, Leonard, the celebrated violin
player and composer having heard Musin
was so well pleased with him that he tried
and succeeded in persuading his parents to
let HIM choose the career of an artist and
from that time 10 the present his progress
has been succession Of triumphs and ova
tons, both on the Continent of Europe ami in
America.
In Vienna he played in the celebrated
Philharmonic Concerts, under the direction
of Hans Richter, who, in the name of the
board, sent him very handsome letter com
plimentidg him in tho very highest terms
Ii is generally conceded by the best critics
that the world has never seen more than one,
or, at the most, two violnists vino could be
considered the equal of Musin. Certain il
is that he now overshadows all others who
have been seen or heard on the concert stage
NJ Musin has received higher prices in
large cities than any other vrtuoso, and his
playing on one string is well worth the price
of admission. lie was recently paid alone
$500 for two solos, and often $500. His
receipts on seven concerts in San Francisco
the past year, with three artists averaged
over 81 200 per night.
With the excellent support to be given
Musin for the season Of lSSS'S9, there is no
reason why he should not outrival all pre-
vious efforts.
