March Bust.

from the (l4ondon) HoSpitalJ
 GA peck of March dust is worth kings ransom" How many of our learned profess sors and ''crabbed' examiners could tell us the why and wherefore of this old sgricul- tursl proverba Our ancestors knew some things we'll, and we know 8 good many of which they knew nothing. But in learning the new things We have permitted many of the old to be forgotten. We are becoming 8 people of books, not of things. Our fore- fathers knew things better than books. Why Is ''March dust' 80 priceless! Because it is the proof and evidence of clear, dry atmosphere. And why Is clear, dry at mosphere to essential in March! Because the soil can be ploughed and narrowed, and the seed put into the ground in dry, clean condition. Seed thus sown gives the best promise of & thriving and fruitful crop. Dry winds in March are priceless for the soil. Moreover, in our northerly counties dry, clear weather is helpful for the young lambs, which at this season are beginning to put in an appearance. The cold does them little harm when the ground and the atmos- phere remain dry. March weather, if not wet is favorable both to vegetation and ami nal life so long as that life is carried on un- der sound conditions. But how stands the question when we turn our attention to man:
 
 and the crops in dry March. Urban man, the miserable town dweller, droops and shivers, coughs and wheezes, groans over his torpid liver, aud bans March as the most ex- ecrable month of the year. If health and comfort are to be made possible for the town man he must either change himself or change the British climate The question which of the two will have to be changed is not so diff fcult as to demand reference to the Royal society. Even the brilliant Tyndal or the dogrnatic Huxley would hesitate before they attempted to change what the latter once called our ''pagan climate" March, it is certain, will not be converted to better ways. Then the town-dwelling man must convert himself if he wants to be well. What is the modus operandia Physics Emphatical- ly no. If the enemy is to be conquered he must be faced Shivering indoors is the basest and most un-English of surrenders. Flaunels and walking sticks are the weapons of war. He who clothes himself properly and walks six miles day all the year round may bid defiance to the "bleak winds oi March n

 An ingenious Philadelphian has discovered process by which air can be converted into fuel and produce the most intense heat, if required, all the wood and coal necessary being enough for kindling the air. He claims that the largest house furnace can be run with five pounds of coal daily.
 Some talk is now made about an unre- pealed law of New Jersey, passed while the State was British colony, which provides "that all women of whatever age, rank, pro- fession or degree, whether virgins, maids or widows, who shall after this act impose upon, seduce or betray into matrimony any of his majesty's subjects by virtue of scents, cosmetics, washes, paints, artiGcial teeth, false hair or high-heeled shoes, shall incur the penalty of the law now in force against witchcraft and like misdeneanors.

Horsehair is likely to fall into disreputs for clothing and watchguards if once the public becomes aware that within it may Turk the germs of so terrible malady as an- thrax, alias malignant pustule. It is fortu- nately not common disease among human beings but it is occasionally met with among .nose who have to manipulate hides, and most of the cases in London come from Ber- mondsey. It recently transpired that deaths also occur from time to time among the men employed in horsehair factories, and one such was the subject of an inquest at Sud bury, in Norfolk, only few days since. The question naturally suggests itself as to why the protection afforded by Pasteurian inoculation to animals should not be extend- ed to man. When 8 man has been success fully vaccinated against smallpox, anthrax and rabies he may, begin to breathe.

Professor Brown n-Sequard is re.
 have lately informed the French Acadsl--
 Sciences that by condensipg the watery va DOT coming from the human lungs he ob- tained a poisonous liquid capable of produc- ing almost instant death. The poison is an alkaloid (organic), and not microbe or series of microbes. He injected this liquid under the skin of 8 rabbit, and the effect was speedily mortal without convulsions. Dr.. Sequard said it was fully proved that re- spired air contains 8 volatile element far more dangerous than the carbonic acid, which is one of it's constituents, and that the human breath contains highly poisonous agent. This startling fact should be borne in mind by the occupants of crowded horse cars and ill-ventilated apartments.
 The Philadelphia Press offers this sugges- tion about doubling the pay of members of congress: Should congress pass law before election dsy fixing salaries at $l0,000 year to begin with the expiration of the term of the congress voting the increase, such an act would have the merit of courage, as it would be virtually an appeal to the people on the question of an increase of the salaries of the senators and representatives. If the people condemned it in their nominating conven- tions and at the polls, it could be repealed before it took effect. If they ratified it or acquiesced in it, then the increased salary could be drawn with a good conscience and some of the bitterness and gloom incident to public life be straigtway turned into sweet Eess and light. It is undeniable that too small official pay gives the millionaire sena- tor and representative an undue advantage oyer their legs fortunate associates

forthwith. He did so and was met
by his tenants wife, who pointed
out various things she wanted done,
and she imperiously insisted on hav-

lord demurred. Madam" said he,
"when let this house let it to the
head of the family, and can only

echoed the woman scornfully, "Well,
