Germs From Distant Stars.

About 20 years ago, when the great con-
troversy between Bastian and Pasteur on
spontaneous generation was nearly at an
end, and biologists had about concluded
that there was no evidence of life having
originated de novo, it was suggested by
some one that life might have originated
on our planet by germs waited from dis
tant or demolished stars. A physician now
presents the theory that violent epidemics
may be due to bacteria swept in, like me-
teorio storms, says Popular Science News.

1t is stated that in Germany the law re-
quires that the tins employed for holding
canned goods shall not contain more than
per cent of lead, while in this country
there is no restriction whatever in regard
to the character Of the tin used, the result
of this latter fact being the employment
of cans in some cases containing as high
as IL per cent of lead. This practice pre-
walls, notwithstanding the unanimity
among psychologists as to the disastrous
effect Of lead salts upon the human system.

To the Arctic in a Canoe.

S. N. Malterner, the we'll known
sportsman and explorer of Spokane,
Wash, has just returned from a
trip down Athabaska, Slave and
Mackenzie river to the Arctic
ocean. He was only about six
weeks on the way, making the en-
tire trip, over 1000 miles in a
birch canoe, all alone. Without a
soul in 100 miles of him, he stood
at the mouth Of the middle chan
mel Of the Mackenzie river and
saw the sun shining brightly at
midnight.
Malterner tells an interesting
story Of his trip. He had no other
object in view than pleasure and
curiosity, and the details of the re-
markable trip that he made-the
first of the kind ever attempted by
a white man alone in a canoe
will probably not be given to the
reading public.--San Francisco
