We once asked St Louis bookseller
whether he ever got hold Of any first editions
"Oh, yes I've got lot OF them stored
away in my Chestnut street lodgings" said
he, "but nobody seems to want them When
used to offer them for sale customers would
say: No, you can't ring in any old truck on

Prairie dogs are dangerous pest on the
plains of Kansas and Nebraska, for if you
are riding along at gallop after your
herd and your horse sets his foot in dog
hole you will get tumble. and the horse
will be lucky to escape without broken
leg. The farmers shoot and trap them,
put poison in their holes, pump sulphur
vapor in on them and devise hundred
other ways for their destruction, but they
seem to thrive in spite of all the plots
against them. A few years ago farmer
in Western Nebraska had an eighty acre
field that was completely covered with
their holes, and contracted to pay man
Sl25 to break up the dog town. The dog
killer kept at the job for nearly year and
killed over 1000 of the dogs, and even then
there were so many left that the owner Of
the ground refused to pay him all his
money and he was obliged to sue. 1t is
almost impossible to exterminate them,
and for years after dog town has been
deserted the ground is dangerous for
horsemen and cattle.-Interview in st.

Protective Inocuiation.

The most familiar form Of protective in
oculation is ordinary vaccination, in which
a comparatively small number of the mi
crobes are introduced into the system, there
to multiply abundantly and to effect some
change, possibly to remove some necessary
food material so that the system will no
longer favor the growth of the same organ
ism if it subsequently gain access. The
system thus becomes protected by having
supported crop of organisms and is in
capable of maintaining second, immunity
from the particular disease being thus Sc
cured for longer or shorter period of time
in the future.
1t has, however, been found that pro
lection can be secured in the case of some
diseases without inoculating the living or.
ganism at all, but by introducing only a
certain quantity of its products on success
sive occasions and in increased quantities.
In this case the protection obviously de-
pends upon accustoming the system to the
particular poison, just as persons may by
practice become accustomed to taking ar
senic or opium. which would prove i'm
mediately fatal to ordinary people. Con
siderations of this kind have led Pasteur
to devise the systems of preventive inocu-
lation for anthrax, for chicken cholera,
and more recently for the terrible hydro
phobia, which is doubtless disease pro
duced by microbes. although as yet undis-
covered. English Illustrated Magazine.

Zola,s Rise i'm Life.

Some twenty-five years ago Emile Zols
was clerk in Hachette's book store on the
Boulevard st. Germain-passing rich on
eighty francs month. Today he is prac
tically a millionaire. No living French
writer has amassed more money than be
from the products of his pen. His novels
sell by the hundred thousand. On the first
publication OF any of his stories by news
paper he receives the sum of $1,000 His
publisher subsequently, pays him double
that sum for the copyright of the work
and gives him, moreover, splendid roy
atty on its sale. 1t is no wonder, there
fore, that under these circumstances the

History Of Beautiful Flower.


The large and beautiful chrysanthemum
known as the Mrs. Alpheus Hardy"
which has recently become such favorite,
has an interesting history. Several years
ago there came to Boston young Japan,
ese boy, Joseph Neesima, who was very
anxious to obtain an education that would
fit him for missionary work in his own
country. He attracted the notice of the
late Alpheus Hardy, whose philanthropy
was well known, and by his kindness the
poor boy received thorough collegiate
and theological education. He returned
home. where be labored with great accept
ance until his death. a few months ago
Soon after his return to Japan, wishing to
make some expression of his gratitude,
young Neesima sent to Mrs, Hardy col
lection of thirty chrysanthemum plants
which he had gathered in his native coun
try.
Mrs. Hardy placed these with an expe-
rienced florist, who gave the apparently
worthless plants excellent care, and was
rewarded by rich collection of blossoms.
Among these was the queenly flower which
has attracted so much attention, and is
said to be unrivaled in the list of chrysan-
themums throughout the world. To this
Mrs. Hardy's name has been given. 1t is
of pure white color, very large, and has
incurving petals On the outer ones are
found small but distinct spines. Great
pains have been taken by florists to dis
cover its origin, and photographs of the
blossoms have been sent to Japan, but at
last accounts no plant producing such
flowers had been found in that country
