Tobacco a Valuable Antisentic.

1t has long been popular opinion that
tobacco is an antiseptic, and this belief
seems to have some solid basis of fact. Pro
fessor Fincenzo Tassinari of the hygienic
institute of the university of Pisa, has
made some very interesting experiments
on the supposed germicidal virtues of to-
bacco smoke, which seemed to show that
1T had destructive action upon the growth
OF baclll, those minute organisms which
are said to be the cause of a vast number
of bodily ills that flesh is heir to.
Professor Tassinari observed the action
of the fumes upon several different kinds
OF bacteria-the so called cholera bacillus,
the cattle distemper bacillus, the pus COO
Gus, the Finkler-P Prior bacterium. the tv-
phus and pleuro pneumonia bacillus and
the blue puS bacillus.
Wishing 10 initiate as closely as possible
the processes going in a smokers mouth,
the professor passed tobacco fumes through
a horizontal tube into receptacle kept
moist by damp cotton wool, which con
tanned also a colony of bacilli The result
shows that the smoke retards the growth
of some kinds of bacilli. and absolutely pre-
vents the growth of others. The tobacco
experimental with was that which is used
IN making the large Csvour cigar, much
favored IN Italy, and it was proved that its
fumes retard the growth of pus bacilli by
seventy-two hours and of cattle distemper
bacilli by 100 hours, while they absolutely
arrest the growth of the so called cholera
and typhus bacili All the Year Round.

i SHALL NOT BE PASSING AGAIN

70 thy dear love my heart is much behoiden,
Yet never more shall be passing here;
The sands Of time, albeit they say. are golden,
But running out so fast, SO fast, my dear.
The dew soon dries upon the morning mead
ows,
The midday sky so soon is overcast;
Then cometh afternoon with length ming
shadows,
And soon the gates of starlight will be
passed.
Sitting tonight beside the smoldering embers,
The Pickering tirelight-like my fond de-
Blazed up moment; now my heart remem-
bers,
Twill soon be time to cover up the fire.
All! well mind me OF thy dear caressing;
If loves sweet story hath not all been told,
Send with the passing year parting blessing
From thy hearts treasury Of pearl and gold.
Ii thou hast yet one gift in thy bestowing.
Send it upon the glad wings of today;
Thou see'st with what feet sleeps the years are
going:
Like them, we never more shall pass this
way.
The king is dead, hearst then the church bells
Ginning?
Long live the kingl With new hope to in
spire;
But if for me there's naught but idle rhym-
ing
Ali well, It's time to cover up the fire.

A Good Rule.

enthusiastically one hears the de-
tails of the life of this man or that wom-
an who has lived to be eighty-6ve or
ninety years old, his or her habits being
stated as illustrations of what it is neces.
sary for person TO do to live long. /
l believe there are nearly as many
methods of reaching an active, comfort
able old age as there are persons, and
that what will serve one person will in
jure the other one. There is one rule,
however, which if followed will be-
lieve help all persons to live to an ad-
vanced age. Believe that life is worth
living, like to live and avoid worrying
about anything. Doing this one cannot
conscientiously abuse his or her stomach,
and with the stomach used decently the
rest follows.-Detroit Free Press.
