AfeN anu OfOteA
"Microbia," or the science Of mi
er0bes, is becoming more and more an
exact study, and theories which lacked
confirmation few short months ago
have now become medical facts. Per.
liaps, says the New York World, the
latest discovery in the realm Of bacteri-
ology is regarding the enormous quan-
tity of bacilli that are to be found in
cotton and woolen clothes. Herr Seitz,
q sayant and physician OF Munich, has
recently made q series of careful in
vestigations Of bits of cotton and
wOolen goods, and the result Of the re-
searches, as he gives it out, contains
information that is startling and
worthy of careful attention.
Herr Seitz's experimenting has been
done with pieces Of cloth about one
eighth Of an inch across. In the aver,
age bit Of woolen goods of this size he
discovered nine hundred and fifty.six
microbes. The pieces examined were
cut from woolen stocking In a
piece of like size cut from a cotton
stocking he found an average yield of
seven hundred and twelve microbes
These bits Of cloth had all been worn.
But Herr seitzis experiment did not
stop here. He carefully tested bits Of
q glove that wAh quits new ana fresh,

In that thirty-three microbes ws-e /;

tcrcstmg this German physician made.
with the result OF formally establishin
the theory that microbes exist TO
greater or less extent in all wearing
apparel.
| II must not be supposed however
Herr Seits contends, that all the vari
c,ies OF bacilli found in clothing are
breeders OF dangerous diseases. Some
OF them have been proved by science to
be quite harmless, but the mere ilei
that microbes Gun and do exist In
clothes, and grow fruitful and multiply
there. is an alarming one, With thi.
theory made into fact. the poculial
spreading Of contagious diseases cNnbJ
traced much more easily and rroca,..
tions more readily taken. Accepting
the fact that nearly all clothing is tin
seat of some type of baeilli, it is no,
difficult to see how certain sporadic dis
eases spring up,
\ One especially valuable bit of mctii-
cal data has come to light through these
experiments, and that is TO the cfTec
hat the baeilli of typhoid fever can b.
preserved in wool, under ordinary con.
ditions, for twenty-five days A vlgar-
GUS application Of this knowledge may
do much to ward off typhoid fever in
future.

How to Knit the soft Foot vushions That
We're Once Popular.

We're Once Popular.
There seems 10 be renewed interest
in brooches, the soft foot cushions that
we're once popular. / urge that they
are to enjoy revival. like many other
hIxuries. and think that readers may
be glad of rule for knitting them
which las the merit Of being an Oft
tried one The foundation for the foot
stool is leather-coyered disk of mill
board about nine inches in diameter;
to this the knitted stripe is sewed, and
stuffed with hair,and pulled down to
make deep depression by taking some
stitches through the board bottom
with carpet thread and a sailors
reetlls. A large furniture button or
short cord and tassal tied in o bow is
sewed over the gathering, The briOehe,
which originally won its name from it's
resemblance in the shape to the French
cake Of that name, is knitted OF double
zephyr wool in stripes. 16 Of them being
narrow and 10 wide, the latter narrow
ing TO q point at the center of the
cushion. Cast on 40 stitches In black
wool and knit seven rows of the narrow
stripe; then with an old gold color knit
two stitches and turn, knitting back to
the end Of the row, continue to knit
lack and forth with the old gold, TAX
ing each time two more stitches of the
black until within two stitches of the
top. Then knit down and commence
again with black, making another mar
row stripe, knitting in the two black
stitches at the top in their turn. When
the last stripe is finished 1t should be
sewed OF knitted to the first stripe.
These directions are contributed by q
knitter who has had an experience ot
over sixty-fve years, and they ought to
be reliable. But should advise anyone
who thinks them complicated to cut
patterns Of thewide or gored stripe, max
ing the top like melon piece, and, in
knitting narrow, by taking up two
stitches together till the shape corre-
sponds with the pattern. If the brioche
is TO be stuffed with down it must be
made with an interlining of ticking or
stout unbleached muslin, else the fill
ingwill continually be escaping in fluffy
partieles.-HarpeT's Bazaar

SMUGGLING That PAYS.
How Cinnamon and Opium Are
Spirited Into This Country.
A Large Number of Persons Actively
Engaged In bringing Goods Over
from Canada Without Pay
ing Duties.

smuggling is an oftense OF great an
guilty and one that many OF the reSo-
ationnry fathers and early settlers OF
ae country, ,priorto the historic bosIon
a party, wcYe wont 70 commit as ne
luently as the opportunity presented
,self, and the excessive duties MADE II
profitable As late as the latter part
OF the eighteenth century the SNUG
Cling OF wine, liquor, tobacco ana nui-
lion was SO generally practlced IN
Great Britain rs to become Siho OF
national failing, and the sinuggier
was often regarded as popular hero.
The maximum penalty for bringing
into the United States dutiabie articles,
with intent 10 defraud the revenue,
is five thousand dollars fine or two
years Imprisonment, or both, IN the
aiscretion of the court, and for aiding
nd abetting the importation OF Chi
aman one thousand dollars, or one
ears Imprisonment. The degree of
punishment an offender gets depends
upon the circumstances of the case. The
smuggler also forfeits his goods.
There is large body OF men system
atically engaged in smuggling China
men and opium on the Pacific coast and
the Canadian frontier. The men who
successfully engage in this business
must be peculiarly adapted to it. The
first qualification is ingenuity enough
TO invent ways and means; second, dis
honesty TO the degree of defrauding
the government, yet with sufficient in
tegrity and honor to justify the import
ers in intrusting TO their care hundreds
and sometimes thousands OF dollars
worth OF opium. 1t is popular fall
lacy that any man who is dishonest
enough and will assume the risk can
make money ut smuggling. If he has
sufficient capital he can buy opium in
Canada and possibly get it across the
border, but it is practically impossible
to sell it without detection. The deal
ers in the United States will not buy it,
nor receive ii, from anyone save their
trusted agents.
According to statistics there are
about one million human beings in the
United States, principally Mongulians,
addicted TO the habit OF smoking
opium. 1t is prepared in Hong Kong
BY q 81 Indicate under the surveillance
of the Chinese government. Prepared
opium has the appearance of black
molasses. 1t sells in China for about
seven dollars per pound, and the duty
under the present tariff law is six dol
lars per pound. Formerly the duty
was twelve dollars per pound; it was
then that the smuggler reaped q
harvest.
The methods of smugglers are too
numerous to relate, but suffice it to
say that the government has to main
tain an army of detectives and spoilers
to suppress them. The detectives who
render the most valuable service are
those stationed at the places from
whence the goods are imported. They
speed the parting guest and give the
tip" TO the detectives at the object
i've point. who welcome the smuggier
whenever the opportunity presents il
sen. Conviction speedily follows, as
the United States statutes place the |
burden Of proof on the smuggler to

AMERICAN MONEY REFUSED.

Canada Is Afraid to Accept 1t at Par
on Account of the Silver Agitation.
Toronto, Aug. 22.-The banks in To
ronto are daily becoming more sus-
picious of American money and not
one of them will accept any form of
American money at par to any great
extent. Yesterday the Bank of Mon
treal in Montreal refused to take
United States bills or silver from any
one. The Toronto branch of that
bank still receives small amounts
from customers and charges one-half
per cent. The Merchants bank is
also considering the ACCESSIBILITY Of
refusing all United States money, but
today received bills at a discont of
per cent. The Standard has for some
time maintained a discount of 10 per
cent. The Dominion now charges 2
per cent ON national currency and 10
per cent on silver certificates. Other
banks charge from one-half to per
cent. The only bank of Hamilton re-
ceives bills at par from customers in
small amounts.

JEWISH VIEW OF FREE COIN.
AGE.

Jewish Messenger, New York.
1t is question of but a short time.
and those Americans who have per-
mitted themselves to be troubled by
the threat of Mr.. Bryan's election will
simply be astounded that they could
have even temporarily yielded to a
sentiment of fear. }
There are certain American stan
dards to which the people of the Unit
ed States will resolutely conform
one measure, one weight--a yard of
three feet-an honest gallon-the gold
dollar-common honesty.
To these standards all will accord
recognition, except
The trader who deceives customers
by short weight or measure.
The dishonest debtor, who would
get the law to permit payment of his
debts in lightweight coin or depreci-
ated currency.
The communist, who opposes law
and order and has no love for the gov
eminent which protects him.
And these last who are making a
clamor at this moment will very spec
Oily be silenced by the voice of honest
Indignation demanding that the re-
public be honored as representative
of justice, uprightness, equality and
true liberty; that citizens be content
with simplicity of life and the re-
wards of thrift and industry. The
farmer who is persuaded that silver
will pay his debts by making the
creditor accept half for the whole,
the workingman who insists upon his
right to be idle and nevertheless to
receive the same wages as the indus
trious laborer-are not patriotic, are
not entitled to respect as Americans
who love their country.
