Ancient Egyptian Flora.

The national museum Of EGYPTIAN
antiquities AT Bulak contains a very
interesting collection of plants which
have been found in the catacombs and
sepulchral monuments of the country.
DIR. Schweinfurth was the first 10 study
this ancient flora, which contains no
example of "A plant that does not grow
today in the Nile valley. Nor does the
most minute examination show the
least difference between the vegcta.
ton that ilourished fifty centuries ago
and that of the present time. In some
eases the color of the flowers can be
clearly distinguished, as, for instance,
the purple l~ackspur, the red poppy,
the reddish brown saffron and the blue
lotus.
The leaves Of the watermelon con-
tain grains of chlorophyll perfectly
visible III the microscope. All these
were found in great numbers in the
burial places of the fifteenth dynasty.
5000 years Il. c., and in one tomb of
the same time some ears of barley. In
later monuments were discovered
mustard, flax, cucumbers, lentils, pine
cones, juniper berries, dates, holly
hooks, chrysanthemums, figs. olives,
onions and grapes. Around the necks
and upon the breasts of the mummies
of 100 b. {. were garlands of celery
leaves and blue lotus flowers. In re-
gard TO the various specimens Of grain
discovered, il may be added that no at.
tempt 10 make them grow has ever
succeeded, the plants having been sub
jected to a great heat at the time of
embalming and burial, which, while
it preserved them, destroyed their ger
minating power. The cases in which
mummy wheat is said TO have been
raised are due simply TO the fraudu-
lent mixture of modern with the an
Gent grains. Exchange.

Cases of poison due 10 meat which
seemed thoroughly wholesome have
sometimes occurred and have remained
unexplained. In the Revue dHy-
giene M. Bourreier, inspector Of meat
for the town Of Paris, makes a valu-
able suggestion. He describes his ex-
periments with meat impregnated with
tobacco smoke. Some thin slices OF
beef were exposed for a considerable
time TO the fumes of tobacco. and af-
forward offered TO a dog which had
been deprived Of food for twelve
hours. The dog, after smelling the
meat, refused 10 eat II. Some Of the
meat was then cut into small pieces
and concealed within bread. This the
dog ate with avidity, but in twenty
minutes commenced to display the
most distressing symptoms, and soon
died in great agony.
All sorts of meat, both raw and
cooked, SOM grilled. roasted and boil
cd, were exposed to tobacco smoke and
then given 10 animals, and in all cases
produced symptoms Of acute poison
ing. Even the process OF boiling could
not extract from the meat the nicotine
poisoning.
Grease and similar substances have
facilities of absorption in proportion
with their ineness and huidity. Thus
the fats most readily Influenced by
tobacco are, in their respective order,
the fat Of horseflesh, OF pork, OF veal,
of BEEF and finally Of mutton. flashed
Daily Yellowstone journal., 1890-02-09

meat is, OF course, mor readily Affect
ed than large pieces; thus, a few putfs
of smoke directly projected on to sau-
sage meat will give il a characteristic
and unpleasant taste. The juices of
meat are equally dangerous. The juice
squeezed out of some veal perfectly
saturated with tobacco smoke was in
jected into a rabbit, and death resulted
in a few moments. Fresh killed meat
is more readily impregnated, and
stands in order of susceptibility as fol-
lows: Pork, veal, rabbit, poultry,
beef. mutton, horse. The effect also
varies considerably according to the
quality of the tobacco, and the end of
"a cigar or a pipe has the most iniuri.

Ericsson's Three Purposes.

Setting aside minor inventions.
three distinct purposes are apparent in
Ericsson's labors; first, 10 improve the
steam engine and scope OF its applica.
ton: next, Ia discover some more eco
nomical and efficient method for
changing the mode of motion we call
Heat into the mode of motion we call
Power; third. to enforce the great
maritime nations into calling the ocean
neutral ground. by making naval war
fare too destructive a pastime To be in
Obliged in, and cqualizing the struggle
between the greater and lesser states.
On the accomplishment Of this last
purpose depended, in Ericsson's
judgment, the future of his native
Sweden. Too weak 10 hold her own
in a contest with any great power, IN
der existing conditions, her only sure
hope of defense is in neutralizing the
dominating factors of numbers and
wealth by the efforts of genius slim
ulated by patriotism.
Love Of country was with Ericsson
a supreme passion. In this control
ling sentiment, in the traits OF char.
acter derived from his sturdy Morse
ancestry, and in the training and expe-
rience received in the twenty-threc
years spent in his Scandinavian home,
we find the secret Of that exceptional
development Of specialized faculties
which has placed him ia the very
front rank of constructive engineers.

A SECOND THOUGHT.


Tho Line Between IIeIpfulncss and Med.
dlesoIncIics n Very Thin.
1t is frequently difficult to draw tho
line between meddlesomeness and help
fulness. / sometimes think Of making
a suggestion or doing an act which l
feel would prove helpful to friend, but
which on second thought see he may
regard as downright meddlesomeness.
remember an instance in which the
distinction was somewhat hard to draw.
| was in Naples, on my way to Rome; I
entered a compartment of car marked
Non fumatori." don't smoke myself
and ! abominate the compartments that
are filled with nasty smoke or nasty
smokers. On reaching the compartment
| saw inlthe dim light against theswin-
dow, the figure of a lady, and also op-
posite the lady the figure of man, and
near the top of the masculine figure
protruded lighted cigar
was about to say to the figure that
held this lighted cigar, in the best
Italian or French could: This is
'non-fumatori' compartment" But
was very much afraid that my Italian
would constitute to him a reason for ar
resting me for high treason and l de-
sisted. Presently ''the train from out
the castle drew" and behold the woman
herself had cigar between her lips and
the man was without his. / then felt
that my helpfulness toward the lady
in endeavoring to shield her from the
ravages of cigar smoke would have
been meddlesopeness. My gratitude,
however, for desisting became greater
as noticed that throughout the
journey between Naples and Rome this
lady and gentleman smoked the same
cigar by turns. Twas glad that had
spared myself from interfering in
united domestic felicity. 1t is perilous

band and wife. Chicago Advance.
