BACTERIA IN CLOTHES.
Hundreds OF Thriving Colonies Found In q
Worsted Stocking.

Carlyle gave us the philosophy OF
clothes; now DR.. Seitz, of Munich, gives
sus their bacteriology. On examining a
worsted stocking, says the British Med
zeal Journal, lie found nine hundred and
llfty-eight thriving colonies, while on
q cotton sock there were seven hundred
and twelve. Both these articles had
been worn, but no inforlnation Is youch-
safed as to the personal habits Of the
wearer. Thirty-three colonies were
found on glove, twenty on piece Of
wooden stuff and nine on a piece Of
cloth; mono OF these articles had been
worn. On piece Of cloth from gar
ment which had been worn a week
there were twenty-threo colonies. OF
the heterogeneous found on articles
Of clothing relatively few werc capable
of causing disease. The pathogenic
species were almost without exception
staphylococci.
In one case, however, DIR. Seit2 found
the typhoid bacillus in articles of cloth
ing from twenty-one To twcnty-seven
days, and the staphylococcus pyogenes
albus nineteen days after they had been
worn. The anthrax bacillus found in
clothes was still viruient after year
The microbe of erysipclas, on the other
hand, could hot be found after eighteen
hours, nor the cholera vibrio after three
days. DR. Seitz studied with special
care the question whether in tuber-
culous subjects who swcatcd profusely
the bacillus was conveyed by the per-

The incubation of two guinea-pigs,
however, gave negative results.

AN INSECTS QUIZ APpErITE.

AZ Erefers a Diet or ocean Cables to Any
thing Else.
A curious fact was brought under the
attention of the visitors assembled at
the opening OF the Telephone Trunk
lines recently, says the London News.
a portion Of the cable laid across from
PortpatriclS to Donaghadce was shown
around, and it was pointed out that tho
five Insulated copper wires constituting
the core of the cable--the real tele-
graphic cable--were incased in sheath
ing, Of brass which had been wound
around them in the form of thin metal
tape. The object OF this was TO pro-
tccs tho guttaperchn insulation from
the attack Of a minute marine organ
isna known as the ''gribblen There
was o time, of courso, when the gribble
knew nothing about telegraphic insu-
tatlng rlatcrials, and indeed over q
large part of the sen bottom such mod
ern luzaries are quite unknown.
But the era OF marine telegraphv
seems to have created new taste in
these tiny creatures wherever cables
have been laid down, just as animals of
larger proportions have acquired the
taste FOR bananas or potted anchoyies.
They end their way in between the
aheathing OF strong iron wire and eat
through. everything In the way Of In
spleting material till they get to the
copper strands, when, of course, the
water gets IA and the conducting power
of the cable is at an end
The curious fact Is that the rnvages
Of the gribble were unknown Ia the
curly days Of ocean telegraphy. md
that this peculiar taste Is not only an
acquired one. but seems 70 be extend
ingir just the same way as the acquired
tastes 81 human beings. AT present
tlle fashion OF guttaperchn eating does

Painful Experience In the Interests OF

The druggists wife concluded to

neighborhood. anticipating anything
but a family unpleasantness which
she witnessed, and becoming inter-

services in the physical test follow

decidedly the worst OF it-she was
returned home with a sprained an
kle.
The woman had fairly entered
upon the vocal exchange with her
friend, when the sons arrival was
announced. He was accompanied by
one of those "conditions, which gives
the bearer a hump-backed appear
ance. additional visionary gifts, and q
limber-like and unbalanced feeling
generally. His refreshment carriage
was taxed to such an extent that
perambulation was just possible, his
steerage capacity being operated un-
der such disadvantages as to make
collisions with sidewalk inclines,
fences and pedestrians unavoidable.
Beside the cargo of hops crowded
beneath his vest so tight as to cause
an impediment in bis vocabulary, he
carried a flask loaded with the
extracts of rye. The mother up
braided him for indulging in such an
amount of exhi.arating fluids, and
for forgetting all sense Of decency
and coming home in . beastly state
of intoxication. He couldn't say
much-he was tired. The sister as
sisted her mother in the tongue lash
ing. and they laid it down to him,
until their sweet and clear voices had
become hoarsed unto basso. But
when he pulled forth the bot
tie there was renewed commotion.
He was asked to discard it, but no;
he would keep it near by to prevent
any danger of his becoming sober.
The mother commanded him to give
it up. Her patience was tried to the
extreme, and she endeavored to Sc
cure it by physical force. graphing
