Valuable Medical Discovery Made.

CITY OF MEXICO, February 23.-Gen-
eral Aureliana River, who discovered
the famous "Jicima" root for the cure
of typhus and has been distributing it
gratuitously to the poor, has made the
discovery that the same root will cure
smallpox. The discovery was made
accidentally, the preparation having
been given to patient from the symp-
toms at the earliest stage of the dis
ease, who it was supposed had typhus,
but it proved to be smallpox. The
root worked like charm, however, in
rapidly curing the man. General
River believes it will cure yellow
fever and has sent package of it to
Vera Cruz for trial there by the ply
sicians at the next appearance Of ar
epidemic.

A BIOLOGICAL QUESTION.
Is a Kitten Afraid of Dog the First Time
1t Sees One?

Is a Kitten Afraid of a Dog the First Time
1t Sees One?
That seems like very simple ques-
ton, and doubtless many of our young
readers will be prepared to answer it
offhand with perfect confidence. Yet
they should not be too sure for men
whose lives have been devoted to the
study of animals differ widely in opin-
ion on the sub ject.
Some of them say that kittens are
terrorized even by the smell of dog
before they have got their eyes open.
Others assert that fear of dogs is some
thing that kittens require little time
and experience to imbibe. And this
question is being debated in scientific
circles just now.
The question is really an important
one in biology. because it is held that
if kittens are born with fear and dis
like of dogs, it must be an acquired in
stinct which has descended to them
from their ancestors, and when the
biologist gets on the track of anything
of that kind he generally succeeds in
drawing some highly-interesing infer,
ences
But in this case the biologists them
selves are not agreed as to the facts,
and so here is chance for everybody
to do little scientific observing of his
own, with a possibility that if his OBJ
vations are carefully and properly
made he may help to lay the founda-
ton for small addition to the halls OF

EARLY RISING,
at Is Conducive Both to a Good Temper
and Longer Lease on Life.

at Is Conducive Both to a Good Temper
and Longer Lease on Life.
The excellence of early rising and it's
inspiring influence on both body and
mind have been themes for the poets
song and the sage's sermon. Early ris-
ing promotes cheerfulness of temper;
opens up new capacities of enjoyment
and channels of delight to which the
sluggard must be inse nsible
1t increases the sum of human exist
ence by stealing from Incidence hours
that would else be utterly wasted, and,
better still. unquestionably conduces
TO longevity. All long livers have been
early risers.
Now, the habit of retiring to bed at
late hours will hardly admit Of early
rising, therefore, the necessity of re-
framing from one in order to secure the
advantage of the other. From six to
eight hours are generally held to be
sufficient, and no doubt on the average
are so.
Our sleep is regulated much by the
season. In winter people lie longer on
account, as they say, of it's being too
dark to get up early. There is some
plausibility in the reason, but the sys-
tenn in cold and dark weather is more
prone to sleep than in light and sunny
times. invalids need generally plenty
of bed rest, but they should procure it
by going early to bed.
There is more health and strength tc
be found in the practice of seeing the
sun rise than in looking at it in any
other part of the day.-N. Y. Journal.
