The LicOrice Plant.

The licorice plant is small shrub, with
light foliage, growing to about feet
high where its roots reach the water. It
grows without any cultivation No lands
are leased for the purpose, and no objection
is made to its being cultivated. It grows
on red earth soil and also on light, almost
sandy, where the wood is best, provided it
has plenty of water, and the ground is not
more than so yards from the actual river or
stream.
The wood, after once being dug up, grows
better afterward. The time of collecting is
generally during the winter, but it is pos
sible all the year round. The root when
dug is full Of water and must be allowed
to dry, q process which takes the best part
Of year. 1t is then sawed or cut into
small pieces from six inches to a foot long.
The good and sound pieces are kept, and
the rotten ones are used for firewood. It is
then taken in native boats to Bussorah,
whence it is shipped in pressed bales to
London and again from there to America,
where it is used largely in the manufacture
of tobacco.-Boston Traveller.

Harmless Bacteria.

We are fortunate that only few bacteria
are disease producing; the great majority
of them are harmless and benef1cent objects
in nature. They are the principal agents
of oxidation of organic matter, and it is to
them that we owe the phenomena of fer
mentation and decay. They are the COM
mon scavengers of the earth. Were it not
for their constant and benefcent work the
world would soon be choked up with de-
caying animal and vegetable matter and
all the higher orders of life would perish.
But the infectious bacteria have the power
Of celebrating heterogeneous poisons, known
as ptomaines, and the question whether
zymotic diseases are produced by bacteria
themselves or by these ptomaines cannot
in our present imperfect state of knowl-
edge be answered with certainty. In some
cases, however, the disease seems to come
from organic poison. Thus tyrotoxicon,
which is the alkaloid produced by bacteria
In the fermentation Of milk, produces .
complexus of symptoms in the human sys-
tenn resembling those Of cholera infantum,
20 it is very probable that tyrotoxicon is
the chemical irritant producing the disease.
What is true of cholera infantum is per-
haps also true of typhoid fever and other
filth diseases, but not at the same stage Of
life.-Engineering Magazine.

A Great Country for Dueis


How prevalent dueling was at one
time in Ireland may be gathered from
the fact that men OF the highest dignity
and most responsible position were ready
to eat fire and taste steel. The lord
chancellor. Lord Clare, fought the mas
ter Of the rolls, Curran. The chief JUS
tice, Lord Clonmel, fought Lord Tyraw-
ley and two others. The chancellor of
the exchequer. Isaac Cory, fought
Henry Grattan. The provost Of Trinity
college, Mr.. Henry Hutchinson. fought
the master in chancery, MIR. Doyle.
OConnell fought and killed Mr.. d'Es-
terre, the champion of the Dublin cor
poration, and, as Darlington says, the
duel was fatal to the champion of Prot
estant ascendancy." These are not the
only eminent Irishmen who fought
duels, for Sir Jonah Darlington states
that during his grand climacteric," 227
memorable duels had been fought. He
tells Us Of one man who had fought no
less than sixteen duels, and Mr.. 8. G.
Hall describes q field near Castlebar,
where it was stated that sixty fatal
duels had taken place-the last being
that of an uncle who had shot his
nephew or . nephew who had shot hia
uncle. -Leeds Mercury.

The Ethics Of Story Telling.

The Ethics OF Story Telling.
It seems to us that in good fiction evil
must appear rs foil for good: that it
must be set over against Righteousness
20 - to make black black indeed and
white purely white. The story teller
need have no express moral hobby to
ride post haste; his tale will be all the
better II told with the pure love Of story
telling: but we may be quite sure that
his taste is unsound If he chooses .
salacious story to tell and gives it the
junction Of personal rehearsal. Here, in
deed. il where we would draw the line.
Evil can be used by the artist with clean
hands and to wholesome effect by con-
trasting it with . healthy. solid protec-
ton Of good
The chief trouble with current realism
ID that it does not do this, but chooses to
cot hopeless evil and nerveless common
place side by side without any trium-
plant moral heroism to dominate or neu-
tralize it. The ethics of fiction shine in
the character, the moral nature of the
story, more than in the ostensible or
even the actual moral purpose Of the
author. It is the general effect that the
work is likely to produce when read by
the aggregate Of readers, which must be
. large element Of the test.-Chautau-
guam.

A Change to 0asis.

Il Change TO Gads.
The old man had gone out to feed my
mule, and as sat talking to the wife
two or three Of the children came hang
ing around her. The youngest. boy Of
three, was trying to climb up on her lap
when she reached out for q book ON the
stand and used it to give him a resound-
ing box on the ear. He ran away howl
ing, and as she began telling how trou-
blesome children were replied:
Haven't you ever heard. ma am, that
boxing Q child's ears may cause deaf
naes?'
LA! nor she replied. docs any one
really say so?"
IAN surgeons say so. and there is no
doubt of it."
''Is it possiblel Excuse me minute"
She went to the back door and called
"Henry-oh. Henryy' to her husband.
and when he came in she said:
i've found out all about it from the
stranger"

me Chinese Yule Tree.

With us even the yule tree has degenerat-
ed into toy; with the Chinese the tree is
still tremendous reality-so real, in fact,
that its branches have obscured their spirit
ual sunlight and left them in the darkness
of superstition. Is it not strange that 80
idolatrous q nation should in this one case
have SO much refrained from the actual
representation of an idea exercising 30 pow
erful q control over their hearts and imag
nations!
Even in idol professions. where the sacred
dragon himself is Unanswered, the peach
tree seldom appears on any OF the numer-
GUS floats which constitute the chief glory
Of these pageants. Yet, despite the great
mystery which shrouded the rites Of Cybele,
the pine Of the great goddess was openly
carried through the streets Of Rome 's!len
her cult became the state religion, and an
excellent representation Of what the Chi
nese mystic would Immediately recognize
AZ corresponding to his notion of the tree
of life was once q distinct feature of the
lord mayors show in London.
From the branches of that tree still
doated the cords Of hell-although the
giant guardians Cog and Magog have been
relegated to Guildhall- its significance
was still further accented by the presence
of that type of self sacrifice, the pelican de-
stroying herself for her young. Through
out all Christendom the AK is now rudely
laid to the roots Of tho unhappy fir or
beech, their best service being deemed tie
amusement of sour children and the glad
dening of Christmastide. In China, how
ever, the beatific peach tree is permitted to
freely scatter it's blossoms on the air Of
spring as unmolested as if ON holy Mount
Tu Sob itself.-Henry B. Mcdowell in Har-
per's.
