SUSPENDED ANIMATION.
The Snail's Life Goes and Comes at q
Scientists Pleasure.

1ne ShalIs Lie Goes and Comes at q
Scientists Pleasure.
Ordinarily if oxygen, water, nour-
ishment or heat be removed death
ensues. Experiments, however have
shown cases of suspended animation
in which the absence of one or more
of these essentials to life has not pro-
duced death. Spallanzani expert
mented with a great many micro
scopic forms of life and attained
some interesting results. Some of
them he dried II times, expecting to
see them killed, but they revived
every time Doyere did the same,
then heated them to $50 degrees
F. and placed them in a vacuum
for four weeks, but they revived
when he poured water upon them.
Baker kept them dry for four years
and then revived them by water.
Spallanzani has proved that the
common snail may be deprived of
any of the four conditions of life and
yet survive. 1t simply retires within
its shell and goes to sleep. He cut
small openings in the shell of the
snail. Through these he could clear
ly see the functions of life in opera
ton. AS the temperature gradually
diminished these operations became
weaker and weaker. At zero all
movements ceased, and the snail ap.
peared to be dead AS soon as the
temperature was raised movements
indicative of life began again. BY
raising the temperature to the nor.
NAL height the snail regained its
powers. Thus the experimenter
quickened and reduced life at his
pleasure.
Spallanzani, however, went fur
Their. 1t was possible, he thought,
that the snail, before shutting him.
self up, might have laid in q supply
of air. He therefore extended his
experiments to many specimens,
making examinations just after the
snail had retired, in the middle of
winter and in the spring, and proved
to his satisfaction that the snail had
not breathed during the winter. He
also kept number of snails during
the winter on the bottom of glass
jars filled with water, oil and quick
silver, proving conclusively that
they had no air supply during that
time.
To prove that it was want of oxy.
gen that puts the snails to sleep he
set them in II vessel filled with
hydrogen. For about ten minutes
the interior organs acted as usual,
breathing the hydrogen, but sudden
ly they ceased, and the snail closed
the shell by the operculum and lay
still. At the end of five hours Spal.
lanzani forced a little atmospheric
air into the lungs of tho snail, and
Immediately tho heart began to act
and the blood to circulate. When he
stopped the supply of air, the opera
tons of life also stopped The snail
remained immohile when carbonio
gas or hydrogen was forced in. 1t |
is consequently the oxygen which
sets the organism in motion. New

The Prospective 1G to 1 Crisis.

Suppose congress and a president
pledged to put this cheap dollar scheme
in operation once fairly elected. Does
it require any great study to see that,
from the very day the election result
was known, every dollar of our $780,
600, 900 of gold and gold certificates
would Instantly go out of circulation
and thereby cause the most violent con-
traction of the currency ever known? Is
it not clear that credit, for the time be-
ing, would be utterly destroyed, and n
financial crisis precipitated, unparal-
leled in this generation and probably in
all history?
From this maelstrom the country
would, of course, in time, emerge. But
it would emerge to do business solely
on silver basis, with millions Of inno-
cent debtors pressed to the wall long Re-
fore the new congress could meet to set
the scheme on foot; with millions Of
innocent creditors robbed Of a large per
cent of their honest dues; with every
old soldiers pension virtually cut i'll
two and every species Of business rela-
tiou disturbed.-George L. Douglass in

of India and of Russia. Having moved in
to the conditions of new world, the farmer
mustadapt himself to its conditions. cd
Mr.. Wilson said he had used his influence
to Ease farmers burdens, so as TO enable him
TO meet these conditions, and the object Of
the last tariff bill was to prevent the agri-
cultural interests from being taxed to keep
up another class of people. The first years
operation of the new tariff, he said, imper-
feet as that measure was, had brought about
to some extent this effect. Now as the
countries of the world were developed, so
opportunities are offered for. marketing
American products The whole question of
agricultural products was that of demand
aud supply, aud the great thing for the far
mer is 10 find markets for what has 10 come.
Mr.. Wilson said he believed that the far
mer of the future would be rs prosperous as
the farmer of the past. upon this condition
that he shall be as careful. as industrious
and as accurate as the merchant, the manu-
facturer and the business man. The abso-
lutte and most wonderful economies were
what made it possible to pay dividends in
manufacturing enterprises, aud this same
system of economy aud freedom from waste
must prevail among the farmers. Ligh,en-
ing his burdens with the new tariff has civ.
en- him great opportunity.
Uk.t 4. L.. dono for tho tnaarfpan
horse? asked Mr.. Wilson. lie told how the
new French vehicles, propelled by petro'
leum motors, had apparently come TO stay.
Steam has been taking the place OF horses.
and now electricity is taking the place Of
steam The bicycle. toy a few years ago,
is now a great and popular means Of trans
portation. These inventions have taken the
places Of 5 100000 horses, and another blow
is felt by the farmer.
Now in raising his products the farmer
must take account of these new forces. He
must study to raise those things in which
thee is least competition, for which there is
most demand and which can be produced
most economically and pro6taby. In clos
ing Mr.. Wilson said he was hopeful of see
ing this beautiful valley more prosperous
aud its people even more happy than they
had ever been before, though perhaps pros
perity would come in a different way than
of old.
MIR. Wilson's eloquent and instructive
speech was roundly applhuded, and its les
sons will not be lost upon the intelligent
farmers Of this community.

Stewart In His Prime.

The silver people are fond Of pulling
records on people who oppose the free
and unlimited coinage Of silver, but
here is a paragraph taken from a speech
made by Senator Stewart in 1871, in
discussing the proposition that led to
the "crime of 1873" two years after
ward The senator then was in his
prime: II want the standard gold, and
no paper money not redeemable in gold
no paper money the value Of which is
not ascertained; no paper money that
will organize a gold board to speculate
in it. Gold is the universal standard Of
the world. Everybody knows what q

s'pitate an era of forced liquidation
certain to yield calamitous results.
Tenth. ALI experience with a de-
based currency abundantly proves that
under such a regime commodities
promptly advance in price, while the
advance in wages is always less prompt
and in the degree Of advance less per-
fectly compensates for the decreased
purchasing power Of the circulating
medium. To add 80 per cent to the
workingman's wages and 100 per cent
to his expenses will be a sorry measure
of relief. SAMUEL DICK1E.
