Ono result of the labors of physiolo-
gists has been the clearing of the mental
vision, and the gradual comprehension
of the great, pervasive and potential fact
of ''heredity." ''The sins of the fathers
shall be visited upon the children" said
Moses moro than 5000 years ago. Proba-
bly, he comprehended In buta very small
measure the Significance of his own
u~tterance. Not only do parents transmit
to children their mental peculiarities,
their moral tendencies, the features Of
the face, the stoop of the shoulders and
the trick of the gait, but they pass IN to

Poison in tho Respired Air.

Professor Brown-Sequard Is reported
to have lately informed the French Acad-
envy Of Sciences that by ~condensing the
watery vapor coming from the human
lungs he obtained a poisonous liquid
capable of producing almost immediate
death. Tho poison is al alkaloid (organic),
and not a microbe or series Of microbes.
He injected this liquid under the skin of
a rabbit and the effect was speedily NOR
tai without commissions. DR.. Sequard
said it was fully proved that respired air
contains a volatile element far more dan
gerous than the carbonio acid which Is
one of its constituents, and that the
human breath contains a highly poison
GUS agent. This startling fact should be
borne in mind by the occupants Of crowd
ed horse cars and ill ventilated apart
ments.-Boston journal.

staniey's Latest Discovery.

On every expedition into Africa Stan
lev has made some important geo9raph-
ical discovery. He has changed the
map of one of the continents, and filled
in the blank spaces ON it with lakes,
rivers and mountains. .-
His latest and fourth expedition is one
of his most brilliant and successful. On
the first one he fOup DR.. Livingston
and himself changed Ill eighteen months
from young man to one white haired
and middle aged in appearance. On this
last trip he rescued Emin, and found that
the great body of water called the Vic
toria Nyanza was larger by 1000 square
miles than it was supposed. The lake
covers nearly $4,000 square miles. This
will make it the largest body of fresh
water in the world; except our own Lake
.-Aperior, which is $4,000 square miles in
extent
The wing, so to speak, of the Victoria
Nyanza, which Stanley has discovered,
extends toward the southwest. The
Nyanza is upon tableland 4,10O feet
above the sea level. The tableland is
some 200 miles in extent, and is water
sned. From it's eastern side pour the
waters that form the Nile. Down it's
western slope glide the streams consti-
tuting the head waters of the Congo.

Like Rats in q Trap"

This is what Lieut.. Jephson, Emin'5
aid, wrote to Stanley. Himself and
Emin Pasha had been imprisoned by
mutinous Egyptian officers of their own
army. The native Africans would have
heen faithful if permitted by their Off
GERS, but they were not. So Emin and
Jephson and those close about them
were caught and held ''like rats in a
trap" unable either to assert their au-
thority or get away, till the American
Stanley, the peerless explorer of this
century, came with his force of black
and white men and rescued them.
So ends one of the most important at
tempts thus far to civilize central
Africa.
Yet it will be civilized, just as Amer
lea was. We may consider Africa at
present in practically the state in which
America was two centuries ago. 1t is
great continent, teeming with all the
products that make life desirable to the
white man. These products the white
man wants and will have. 1t is written
in the book of destiny, and nothing can
stop it. If states such as Emin sought
to erect in the interior of Africa cannot
be sustained, then the civilized nations,
that need more room, will parcel the
dark continent out among themselves
and people it with white men. In fact,
they will do this in any case.

Horse Race Winnings.

In a summing up of the earnings of
racing horses for 1889. it has been found
that these amount to not less, than SS,-
100000. But this is high tide>that can
hardly be reached every year. Every
year finds more and more 'individaals
entering the horse racing occupation, so
that this too will be oTerdone in time.
But at present there is no more rapid
money making investment than race
horse. when he happens to hit, which is
perhaps once in seventy-five times.
The largest winners for 1889 are the
Dwyer brothers, of Brooklyn. They
counted on 100000 for the season, but
some of their horses failed them, notably
their two year olds, and the amount fell
short. As it is, however, they are $685.
1854 richer than they were six months
ago, all taken in from their racers. Four
teen years the Dryers have followed the
turf, and in that time their winnings
have amounted to nearly a million and
quarter. -
! The Dwyers had twenty three horses
ON the track the present season, more
than any of the other owners. The horse
that brought them the most money on
the race tracks of the country was Long
street, who won ten races out of twenty
three, and in money, S38,866. Long
street is 3-year-old. Next came the
5-year-old horse Kingston, with S22,957.
: Others followed in sums ranging from
SIS, 900 all the way down to 81 900.
There is a craze at present among the
racing public for contests between 3 and
3-year-olds, though at the close of sea-
son the colts have often to be retired,
temporarily or permanently injured from
the hard running, which cannot but do
harm to their immature bodies and
,l;lnbEs But, Of course, nobody cares for
at as long as the young animals win
ypney.
lfornia seems, for some reason, to
best state for the breeding of colt

In a country where men mostly have
too much work to do to cultivate the
fine polish Of manner which so enhances
natural advantages. the late George H.
Pendleton was an exception. He was
born to wealth, and possessed an attract
i've presence and person by nature. To
this he added by cultivation of both the
virtues and graces. His sense of honor
was so high. his manner so courteous,
graceful and kindly that he early won
the name which accompanied him to his
grave, gentleman George" Besides
this distinction, he will be remembered
as long as we have a civil service in
America as the father of the civil service
law. 1t was the favorite measure of his
! life. The law was passed, largely through
his earnest efforts, when he was United
States senator from Ohio.

High Art Decorations.

Have make-believe wood fireplace in
one corner of your house, with hickory
logs in it that are never meant to burn.
Have q tall, brass topped shovel and
tongs. tied up with blue ribbon bows,
somewhere not far off. Stick little dabs
of yellow, red and blue ribbon at every
corner of every picture frame. Continue
the d&bs Of ribbon over each chair,
weave it in between the canes, and quirl
it around the rockers till plain man
would be afraid of his life to sit down
in it. Hang tabs and ends and fringes
of things all over your walls, till they
look like rag bag struck by lightning.
Have q portiere to each square foot of
space. If YOU have not room enough to
show your portieres properly, put two or
three upon one door, and then loop one
over the other. Decorate your windows
in the same way. Have about six hang
ings and bolt or two more of ribbon
to each.
Cover the floor with rugs, two or three
deep. Have them nice and handy where
the caller will trip upon them and fall
and disfiSure himself. y rug that is not
placed where it will trip and throw
somebody has missed its mission. Stick
tiSsue-paper roses wherever there is any
place for them.
All these haEging3 and drapings are in
the true line of high art. BY no posi-
bility can the room properly fitted with
them be busted. That will save labor.
Ihe rags and tabs and bits of cloth and
ribbon with which your room is filled
are warranted TO catch and hold all dis
ease germs, typhoid, small poX. con-
sumption and diphtheria. If there IS
anybody you particularly wish to get
rid of, tit his sleeping room with high
art decorations and scarfs and things.
Some persons are of opinion that
the most appropriate decoration for
room is the free, dancing, glorious sum
shine and air that the Almighty gave us.
Don't mind such people, they are cranks.
What did the Almighty know of high
art? y high art room was never meant
to breathe in. If people want to breathe,
let them so out doors. Then, miss or
madam, when all about you is properly
bedraped. sit down and make the follow
ing final triumph of artistic skill:

1t looks now as though one question
on which the fate of the world hangs
will never be decided; that is, whether
the Australian negro Jackson or our own
John L. Sullivan is the civilizations
champion prize fighter. Every induce
ment has been made to bring them to-
gether, but in vain. The highborn in
stincts that hustle in the breast of John
L. forbid him to demean 4Imself by
fighting with colored man. He draws
the line on that. He will drink himself
drunk as a lord, and stay so for days,
he will do everything that the ordinary
mortal considers disreputable, but he
still looks on himself as gentleman of
the first cut. Fight with a negro?
Never! What fine thing it is to have
the feelings of a gentleman!
