Cnlemocratic France.

As a matter of fact Frenchmen are
about the least democratic people in the
world in their social longings and ideals.
France is politically a republic, but So
cially it keeps up most of the character
istics of an aristocracy. The difference
between her and America in this respect
is p~rodigious. In the United States it is
impossible to ind a man with a decora-
ton: ia France it is difficult to find any,
body without one. In spite of the revo-
luton titles are still maintained, and the
highest ambition of every bourgeois
would be satisfied it he could marry his
daughter to a nobleman. The Unsuitable
thirst to put on a uniform of some kind,
no matter what. has often been used as
a reproach against III Gallo friends

Bacteria In Tobacco.

There seems to be no end to the dis
coveries that await US concerning BAG
terra, and the relations of those micro
scopic organisms to the well being of
man. Who would ever have thought
that the peculiar favors which charac-
terize different kinds or brands of tobac.
20 are due to the presence of bacteria:
Yet that is the conclusion to which in
vestigations by a German botanist lead.
In curing tobacco, or preparing the
raw. green leaf for use, a Preventative
process called sweating is gone through
with.
It has been supposed that the chemical
changes induced by this process were the
source Of the peculiar qualities possessed
by the cured tobacco. But, according to
Suchsland's experiments, it appears that
heterogeneous may be the real cause
Of the changes.
He has examined tobacco from all
parts of the world which had been cured
and has found in it an abundance Of mi
cro-organisms. and upon cultivating the
bacteria from a particular kind of tobac-
co and then inoculating another kind
with this culture he has produced in i.
the taste and aroma of the original.
This discovery has led to the sugges-
ton that the quality Of tobacco grown
in any country may be improved by sim
ply inoculating it with bacteria from
some finer favored leaf growing else
where. Wines have already been i'm
proved BY d similar process.-Youth.s

Trouble With a Sword.

4 Lewiston young man who was in
Portland Saturday night found some
antique Turkish swords in a window
on Congress street, and having a love
for art bought one for ornamental
purposes and asked hat the clerk do it
up in paper. Before he had gone half a
block the paper came off. The young
nan was waiting for the Boston boat to
start. He carried the sword about the
streets till people began to comment
upon it. Then he hid it under his ulster
and was standing IN the corner talking
when it slipped down, striking on his toe

little shocked at receiving from the club

He borrowed from one of his compan-

gaining admittance he threw the book
out of a window to the messenger and
