Their Circulation Wanlnu.

II is cunons fact that the circula-
ton Of foreign periodicals is waning in
this country. Time was when Punch
and the leading German comic weeklies
had great vogue bore, but now the de-
mand is well nigh dead because of the
growth of strictly American comic
papers. In nothing in this country has
the development been greater or more
rapid than in periodical literature, and
we are actually beating the British on
their own ground with our illustrated
weekly papers and monthly magazines.

The blood of animals has been used
for bread making by DR.. Makarof, in
Russia. A dough of p parts Of rye
meal and II of blood is baked into q
very good loaf, which is more nutritious
than ordinary bread of rye or wheat. 1t
is suggested that those who slaughter
animals be required to collect the blood,
which has hitherto been wasted, and
forward it to specified centres, where it
should be made into bread and dis
tributed to the poorer peasants. .-Tren-

A new alloy of lead, which is almost
unattached by acid, has been invented
by Wurms. It's composition is 9i5 parts
of lead, twenty-five c: antimony, and
thirteen of mercury.
A recent invention consists OF a CON-

Evidence goes to show that a person
can dream Of happenings in a few seconds

Disease in the sugar cane is rapidly
spreading in Trinidad. The insect dill
fers in size and other particulars from the
ordinary care borer. It enters the cane
at the knots, makes long channels in
which the eggs are deposited, and the
Young insects very rapidly attack the
cane. No cause has yet been discovered
for the appearance of the insect, and no
remedy except tie destruction Of the
cane.
A test of the combined apparatus ol
two English inventors for the suppression
of the smoke nuisance was recently tried
in London. One invention consists Of fire
clay arches through which the gases and
air are passed. These becoming incan-

other invention consists in the introduc-

means Of steam jets. The two devices
combined are said to have produced ex-
