Protection of Animals,

The first law in the world to prevent
cruelty to animals we owe to an Irish
member Of the British parliament
Lord Erskine attempted to introduce
such an act, but so much fun was made
of it that he desisted.
Then came into the house of commons.
from Galway, on the west coast of Ire
land, Richard Martin, an Irish gentle
man, or, as the folks called him, Dick
Martin, and ne was noted for two
things
First, he was very fond of animals;
and second, he was known to be very
much inclined to fight anybody that he
thought insulted him. SO one day he
brought in Il law to protect animals.
Immediately somebody made a cat
call.
He just stepped out onto the floor of
the house of commons, and said very
gravely that he Should be very much
obliged for the name of the gentleman
who had seen fit to insult him. There
was dead silence. The gentleman didn't
give his name, and Martin walked back
to his seat amid the cheers of the house
of commons, and his law became the law
Of Great Britain and the first law of its
kind i'll the world.
Now these societies have spread over
the world,-Dumb Animals.

bleaching by n New Agent.

DR.. Ludwig Schreiner, of Stuttgart,
has brought forward new bleaching
agent which he calls ozonin. 1t is pre-
pared by dissolving % parts ct hydrate
Of potash in 1861 parts of water to which
1875 parts of rosin are added after boil
ing the solution. To this mixture are
added first $50 parts oil of turpentine
and then 1861 parts peroxide of hydro
gen. The product thus obtained is ozo-
min, bleaching agent more powerful
than either turpentine or peroxide Of
hydrogen alone. DR.. Schreiner says that
solution of one part of ozonin in 1000
parts of water will form powerful tex
tile bleach, and that the solution also
has disinfecting and antiseptic proper
ties of value. New York Telegram.

Chsstnnts in France.

Chestnut trees are very abundant in
the southern parts of Europe, and the
fruit is one of the principal articles of
food among the poor This is true not
only in France, but in Spain, Italy, Swift
zerland and Germany. In Italy the ker-
nels are ground, and the meal is used for
thickening soups and even for bread
The authors of 'fOur Home in Aveyron"
were struck with the importance of this
crop.
''Ah, mademoiselle, it is quite boon
when the chestnuts are in season." re-
marked a friend one day. So it is, for
they help very much in the composition
of fresh dishes for the table They are.
of themselves, cooked in about fifteen
different ways, and very delicious some
of the dishes are
More important is the fact that chest
nuts are really the principal food of the
inhabitants where the tree abounds. So
state the government statistics, but this
refers of course to the peasantry pure
and simple, who. however. form the vast
majority of the inhabitants.
In the month of October the chest
nut harvest begins Before and after
school hours the grave children troop to
the woods to pick up the fallen fruit
They carry empty sacks to the hilltops,
gathering the fruit and filing the sacks
as they descend.
Each sack becomes too heavy for the
children to carry, and is dragged about
by two or three until it is full. They do
not attempt to carry the sacks home, but
are met by some grown up relative, who
relieves them of their burden.
The animals get their share of the
fruit, and u peasant woman will sit for
an hour or two in front of her door lei
surely cutting up chestnuts into little
bits for her small stock of poultry, which
fight and scramble for the tidbits she
throws to them. Companion.
