ward, which have not yet solved the
problem of cleaning their streets we'll
and cheaply, would profit greatly by
an examination into the working of a
machine that has been introduced
into Germany for picking up street
sweepings. This machine, which is
drawn by horses, takes up in its for
ward motion the moist street debris
or mud which has been deposited in
streaks by the preceding sweeper.
The frame of the machine carries,
suspended from the rear axle, an iron
trough of half cylindrical shape,
about four feet in length and nearly
three feet wide. AT the inside of the
rear wheel an open paddle wheel is
attached, which takes up the sweep
ings and drops them into the trough.
A small plow at the front serves to
narrow the strip of swecpings, which
may possibly have been scattered
somewhat by the hoofs of the horses
drawing the machine. When the
trough is filled it can be instantly
dumped at any required spot by
means of crank and chain arrange
ment. 1t is stated that this machine.
which is easily drawn by two horses
and managed by one man, can remove
from four to six miles of double rows
of sweepings in day.

MILK a Nlicrobe Killer.

DIR. Freudenrich has found, by ex.
periments, that the cholera bacillus.
if put into milk drawn fresh from
the COW, dies in an hour, and in five
hours If put into fresh goats milk.
The bacillus of typhoid fever takes
twenty-four hours to die in cows
milk, and five hours in goats milk.
Other microbes suffer like fate in
varying periods. But he has also
found that milk maintained for an
hour at a temperature of 231 degrees
Fahrenheit, loses its power to kill
microbes-a statement which is of
interest in the face of the common
teaching which makes the puriflca-
tiou of milk depend upon it's being
boiled Again, the bactcricidal prop
critics of milk become weaker the
older it gets, for cows milk after
four days, and goats milk after five
days, ceases to have any effect upon
micro. organism.

Ancient Hindu yacoinat,on.

At meeting of the Epidemiologi.
cal Society Nancet, Feb. %, 1892
DR.. Pringlc quoted remarkable pae! at
sage from an ancient Hindu worRss
which showed that true vaccination
was known and practiced in India
centuries before the birth of Jenner:
"The smallpox produced from the
udder of the COW will be of the same
mild nature as the original disease.
the pock should be of good
color, filled with a clear liquid, and
surrounded by circle of red. ;.
There will be only slight fever Of
one, two, or three days, hut no fear
need be entertained of smallpox so
long as life endures." Pasteur's at
tenuation of virus by successive cult
ures has been applied in India for
hundreds of years to inoculations
with variolous lymph, which the
document in question directed to be-
taken from athe most favorable
cases." and he has seen series of such
selected inoculations in which there
was no general eruption, and the
local phenomena was scarcely distin.
guishable from those of vaccination.

Going to Sleep.

Scientific Investigators assert that
in beginning to sleep the senses do
not unitedly fall into slumber, but
drop off one after another. The sight
ceases in consequence of the protec-
tion Of the cyelids to receive impress
sions first, while all the other senses
preserve their sensibility entire. The
sense of taste is the next which loses
it's susceptibility to impression, and
then the sense of smelling. The
hearing is next in order, and last of
all comes the sense of touch. Fur.
thermore, the senses are brought to
sleep with different degrees of pro-
foundness. The sense of touch sleeps
the most lightly and is the most cas-
lily awakened; the next easiest is the
hearing, the next is the sight. and
the taste and smelling awake last.
Another remarkable circumstance de-
serves notice: certain muscles and
parts of the body begin to sleep be-
fore others. Sleep commences at the
eXtremities, beginning with the feet
and legs, and creeping toward the
center of the nervous action. The
necessity of keeping the feet warm
and perfectly still as a preliminary of
sleep is we'll known. From these eX-
plantations it will not appear surpris-
ing that there should be an imperfect
kind of mental action which produces
the phenomena of dreaming.

Inycntion of the Posfo,H IN.

The invention of the postotfice is
ascribed to Cyrus, King of Persia,
who lived about 600 b. c.
Cyrus required all of his governors
of provinces and chief commanders of
troops to write to him exact accounts
of everything that occurred in their
several districts and armies.
The Persian empire was of vast
extent, and some means had to be
provided to render that correspond
ence sure and expeditions. Cyrus
therefore caused postofiices to be
built and messengers appointed in
every province. He found how far a
good horse, with an experienced
rider, could travel in a day without
being hurt, and then had stables
built in proportion at equal distances
from each other. At each of these
places he also appointed postmasters,
whose duty it was to receive the let
ters from the couriers as they ar
rived and give them to others, and to
give fresh horses in exchange for
those that had performed their part
OF the journey. Thus the post went
continually night and day, rain or
snow, heat or cold, and Cyrus received
speedy news of all occurrences, and
sent back whatever orders he consid-
cred necessary.
Darius. the last king of the an.
cient Persians, was superintendent OF
them before he came to the throne.

Nlcc Story of . Kind Little Girl.
The family of a petty official at
Berlin was recently treated to an
agreeable surprise owing to the chari-
table dispositionof the smallest mem-
Der of their little household :s-year-
old girl. During the month of May
she met, sitting on bench in the
public square near her home, an old,
poorly but neatly clad man, who at
tracted her attention by his sad looks
and lonesome air. Thinking he must
be hungry, she stepped up to him, and,
with the question, "Want piece of
ple!" She resolutely handed him half
of her simple lunch. The man ap-
peared somewhat perplexed, but smil-
ingly received the piece with thanks
and ate it. From that day both might
frequently be seen together engaged
in lively conversation, the little girl
never forgetting to offer her old
friend part of her lunch, which she
was in the habit of eating in the open
air after playing about on the lawn,
nor ever admitting of any refusal on
his part to take at least a little bite.
AT the beginning of this month Her.
mine returned home one morning
with the distressing news that the
poor man" had not appeared. Nei-
ther had he been seen for several DAYS
after, when Hermines father received
an unexpected summons to appear at
court. Here he was told that the
"poor old man," who really was a
wealthy citizen of Berlin, had left his
whole fortune to little Hermine. His
will contained the following para
graph:
II had despaired of the whole world,
for those who were nearest and dear
est to me had deceived me. Thus /
renowned all, for what l desired l
was unable to obtain. l became a
miser, because my libcrality was only
rewarded with ingatitude. Nearing
the end of my course, l was nightly
touched by child's heart, which rec
oncilcd me with humanity. 1t was
only for short time, but if l had
millions TO bestow those few moments
would not be paid for too dearly. May
my wealth serve my little friend for
better ends than it did me, who never
knew how to appreciate or to cNpend
it. ."-Baltimore Sun.
