1.-THE cause of boils," says DIR. Debouzy,
the medical correspondent of the European
edition OF the New York Herald, lis now
held To be the penetration of the skin by a
microbe known as the staphylococcus
aureus, aud, hence the treatment should
be one which kills these microbes. The
old fashioned linseed poultice does not kill
the staphylococcoi burrowing into and
poisoning the flesh, but it helps them to
multiply and TO do their mischievous work.
In mild boils tincture of iodine may be
applied with good effect, or "a compress of
gauze soaked in "a solution of sublimate
heated to temperature of 1876 degrees.
Often spraying a painful boil with 2 per
cent solution of carbolic acid works ex-
tTaordinary cure"
There is one thing, however, which has
never been known To fail TO cure any boil
or carbuncle. 1t is Quratol, the new prep
aration which is sold by all druggists in

sration not only cures boils, but it gives
almost instant relief in cases of burns,

This knowledge of what we are pleased
to call artificial digestion runs largely
through all Chinese cooking. Whenever
meats, especially the heavy and indiges-
tible class, are to be employed as food,
the cook increases their assimilative
character by the use Of peptoniferous
tripe and vinegar have often out Of
curiosity examined the numerous made
dishes of the Mongolian cuisine with a
view TO ascertaining their constitution.
Whether it was soups or stews, ragouts
or fricassees, pot roasts or boiled, have
found tripe finely shredded or thinly
sliced in three dishes out of every five.
The ratio was largest in households of
wealth, where well paid cooks were the
rule, and smallest in those where the
conditions were otherwise. AS they dis
covered the peptic virtue of tripe in all
food animals, they likewise found the
same quality in the gizzard of the bird
kingdom. They have employed the giz-
card even more literally in their cook
ing than they have the tripe, and they
regard it, as is the scientific truth, as
the most valuable Of all animal tissues.

A BUSINESS ROMANCE.
Il Is the True Story OF the Rise of a Hum
BILE Young Man.

II Is the True story of the Rise of Hum
BILE Young Man.
A young man who was working as
:lerk in an importing house had ocoa-
sion frequently in the course of business
to call at certain large manufacturing
establishment. The head Of the concern
took a fancy to him. One day he asked
the young man what salary he was get
ting, what his chances of promotion
were and so ON. He was told and then
said to the young man that he Thought
there was a better opportunity for him
In his Office than in the house where he
was then employed
The young man replied that he should
of course like TO better himself, but
that his engagement would not permit
him TO leave for some time TO come.
The head OF the house said he thought
he might induce his employer to let
him go. He accordingly wrote note to
the senior partner of the importing
house, with when he was on intimate
terms, saying that he had formed lik-
ing for the young man, that he believed
there was better opening for him IN
his office and asking that he be released.
The next day the young man came back
with a letter in which his employer,
while expressing regret at losing his
services, said that he recognized the
larger opportunity offered him, and, as
he didn' t want to stand in his way, re-
leased him. The clerk went to work in
his new position and so confirmed his
employers good impressions that his
promotion was rapid. He went from one
responsible position to another until he
was next to the manager of the house
A short time ago the manager died, and
"our hero now no longer a young
man of course, but still in the prime of
life, took his place at a salary 'very
nearly if not quite as large as that of
the president of the United States. -

A strange heritage was that bequeath-
ed to his children by Eleuthere Irenee
Du Pont de Nemours, when, driven from
France by the revolution, he came to
the PARKWAY state of Delaware, and
with skill in chemistry, acquired under
the great Lavoisier, set TO work in 1902,
making gunpowder for America and the
civilized world, if world can be called
civilized that uses so much of it. Vast
wealth he prepared for his descendants,
the family fortunes today uniting into
nearly 800, 600, 900. But along with the
riches he left dread responsibility that
presses down relentlessly upon every son
and grandson. Thou shalt not rest ;
thou shalt not fear" is written ON the
brow of every Du Pont child, and read
in the life of every Du Pont man. If
ever q family was brave, it is the Du
Points; if ever family had need Of
bravery, it is they.
The Du Points monopolize the gun
powder business of America, controlling
80 of the 32 mills in this country. They
do this by confiding to no one, not even
to the archives of the patent Office, their
secret methods of composition, their spe-
cially devised machinery, and all the
lore of gunpowder making that has come
TO them through generations. This in
herited knowledge is the family treas
ure, and to guard it inviolate the Du
Points must be their own mechanics,
chemists, superintendent and engineers,
must spend hours every day in the mills,
must live with the menace of sudden
and frightful death always about them

A Comparison of Points.

Nearly everything that comes under the
hands of the amateur scientist is worthy
of observation and full of interest. A
French authority says: One day while en-
gagged over microscopical preparation l
was making use of one of these steel points
generally employed for such purposes,
when, happening to pass it accidentally be
meath the microscope, 1 was astonished to
see how rough and uneven it appeared
when highly magnifiod.
The idea then occurred to me to have
recourse to something still more pointed,
and was thus led to make comparisons
between tie different objects represented
in the cut, 1t will here be seen how very
coarse is the product of our industry when
compared with the product of nature.
No. l represents the point of pin that
has been already used highly magnified.
