The Latest ArithmetricaI Prodigy.

Jacques Inaudi was born at Onorato, in
Piedmont, on October 13, 1867, of family
in modest circumstances. He passed his
earlier years in tending sheep. At the
age of years he was taken with pas
sion for figures, and began to combine
numbers in his head while at watch over
his flock. be did not try to give his cal
culations material form by counting on
his fingers, or with stones, but the whole
operation was mental. He conceived
numbers by the names which his elder
brother had recited to him. Neither he
nor his brother could read then. He
learned by ear the numbers to hundreds,
and exercised himself in calculating with
what he knew. When he had done his
best with these numbers he asked to be
taught those above 100 so that he might
extend the sphere of his operations. He
has no recollection of his brother teach
ing him the multiplication table. At 7
years of age he was capable of perform
ing in his head multiplications of five
figures. In little while he started with
his brother to wander through Provence,
the brother playing the organ and
Jacques exhibiting marmoset and hold
ing out his hand. To increase his re-
ceipts he proposed to the people he met
to perform mental calculations for them !;
at the markets he assisted the peasants
in making up their accounts, and per-
formed difficult arithmeticai operations
in the cafes. A manager engaged him to
give representations IN the cities. He
came to Paris for the first time in 1880
and was presented to the AnthropoIogicai
Society by Broca, who wrote a brief note
on the case.-Popular Science Monthly.

OLDEST HE1BArIUEF.
Found in Egypt and t'oinYosod ofI'lol
Thousands of y eqr.- ssId

Found in Egypt and 'oIn3osod ofI'iar- :
Thousands of Year ola.
The oldest herbarium in the world is in
the Psychologist Museum at Cairo, and
consists OF an inconspicuous collection of
dried portions of plants. These portions
OF plants and flowers were taken from
wreaths and garlands in the coffins with
mummies, where they were placed by
the ancient Egyptians as death offerings,
and from edible plants which were set in
earthern vessels on the floor of the sep
ulcher as the furniture of the last resting
place of their beloved ones. Many
OF these floral remains are so well pre-
served that, after being treated with warm
water, they can be handled like modern
herbarian specimens. The colors, too,
are preserved in remarkable way. Ac-
cordfng to Farm and Forest, the most
important matter in connection with
these plants is their age. The remains of
funeral food are found in tombs as far
back as 5000 years before Christ. Five
hundred years later grains of mustard
seed, capsules OF tlaXseed, gourds, len
tils, beans, figs, pine needles, juniper
berries and other edibleS are found. The
richest acquisitions in leaves and flowers
to the herbarium were made from the
tombs constructed between the sixteenth
and eighteenth centuries, B. c. Among
the flowers for the dead were the blue
and White lotus, the red poppy, the ori-
entail hollyhock, crown chry rysanthemum,
satllower, pomegranate flowers, willow
leaves, grasses and peppermint. Celery
leaves came into requisition later, and
onions, leeks and garlic played an i'm
portant part i'll the offerings to the dead.
One OF the general conclusions drawn
from this herbarium is that Egypt has
sustained no appreciable climatic changes
during the last 4 1000 years.

The Mixed Race of India.

Eurasia has no boundaries 1t lies, a
varying social fact, all over India, thick
in the great cities, thicllest in Calcutta,
where the conditions of climate and
bread-wlnning are most suitable; where,
moreover, Eurasian charities are most
numerous. Wherever Europeans have
come and gone, these people have sprung
up in Weedy testimony of them-these
people who do not go, who have received
somewhat in the feeble inheritance Of
their blood that makes it possible for
them to live and die in India. Nothing
Will ever eNterminate Eurasia; it clings
to the sun and the soil, and is marvel
ously propagative within its own borders
There is no remote chance Of its ever be-
ing reabsorbed by either of its original
elements; the prejudices of both Euro
peans and natives are far too vigorous to
permit of much intermarriage with jat
of people who are neither the one nor
the other. Occasionally an up-country
planter, predestined to a remote and
" "jungly" existence, comes down to Cal
cutta and draws his bride from the upper
circles Of Eurasia-this not so often now
as formerly. Occasionally, too, young
shopman with the red of Scotland fresh
in his cheeks is carried off by his land
lady's daughter; while Tommy Atkins
falls a comparatively easy prey. The
sight of native with half-caste wife is
much rarer, for there Eurasian as well as
native antipathy comes into operation.
The whole conscious inclination of Eu-
rasian life, in habits, tastes, religion, and,
most of all in ambition, is toward the
European and away from the native
tandards.-Popular Science Monthly.
