The "Bie Dipper."

In astronomy the "Big Dipper," &C
called, is in the constellation of Ursa
Major, or the Great Bear. The stars
forming the tail of the bear also form
the handle of the dipper. The first star
in the handle is Benetnasch; the second,
Mizar; the third, Alioth. The other
four, which go to form the bowl of the
dipper, are Megres, Phad, Merak and
Dudhe. The two last named are called
"The Pointers" because they point or
guide the eye to the pole star, which is
distant 30 dogs. The top bowl stars are
10 dogs. and the bottom ones s degs.

was singularly happy. The dictator made

Among the great discoveries Of
the year In medicine and science will
be recorded that Of artificial quinine.
Scientists have long sought to manu-
facture artificial quinine so that the
medical profession need not depend
upon the supply Of the trees from
which the drug Is obtained for their
important anti-fever medicine. Drs.
Grimaux and Arnaud. OF Paris, have
succeeded In obtaining an artificial
substance similar to quinine In its
effects, and their method Of making
1t Is as follows:
The base cuprein contained In the
shrub remijia pedunculata found
growing in Brazil Is treated with
sodium, and then the combination
thus obtained Is treated with chloride
.ofmethyl.
The result Of this combination Is 3
drug that Is Identical with tho sub
stance which we know as quinine. II
has the same effect when given In
fevers, and It will answer the same
purpose as the natural product when
applied for other purposes than re-
ducing the temperature of patients.
The result Of this discovery which
has long been anticipated win be the
cheapening Of the drug, and the regu-
lation OF the prices during all seasons.
The discovery, however, will lead to
more important results in the way OF
enabling chemists to obtain analo-
gous medicines Of great value. pitts.

Triehinse I'm oysters.

Since trichina have been found in
fish and cells, eaters Of oysters might
as well exercise a little caution, and
have the bivalves well stewed or fried
before swallowing them, says the st.
Louis Globe Democrat. The fish and
cells are supposed to have taken
trichinR from infected pork or other
flesh thrown into the water, and II
this is the case there is no earthly
reason why an oyster should not also
be susceptible to the disease.
An oyster gets his living by sucking
in the water and industriously pick
ing out whatever In 1t is to his taste.
and If the trichin@ germs should hap
pen to be floating about there is no
probability that an oyster knows
enough to spit them out, or cares
enough about his own health to reject
them, even If he knew they were poi

super.ti.ions Of brides.


One Of these Is expressed In an old
rhyme which Is familiar to US all:
Change the name and not the letter.
You change for the worse and not for the bet
ter
Another is that the day must be
fine, In accordance with the old-time
law:
Happy Is the bride that the sun shines on.
Blessed are the dead that the rain rains on"
There is still another superstition
POLITICALLY rendered that brides
wardrobe must contain:
something old and something new.
Something borrowed. something blue. ("
It is considered very bad fortune
for bride to make her own wedding
cake or to have anything to do with
IL; and, strange as 1t may seem, 1t has
been observed over and over again in
unhappy marriages that the bride
had stirred the wedding cake.
To lose the wedding ring In the first
month OF marriage augurs great mis-
fortune. To lose 1t at any time IL sup
