YELLOW FEVER.
Dr. sanarelh's Method OF Treament and
cure.

New York Oct GA dlspathc to the
Herald from Buenos Ayres says:
Or. Sanarelli. who has been In Uru-
quay for many months studying tho VEL
low fever problem and who recently an
nounced the discovery OF curative
anti-toNlne for fever, has been inter-
Viewed as TO his work in Montevideo,
In the first place the doctor states that
tervlewed by the Herald as to his dis
covery. are completely mistaken as to
Its use. 1t is not a serum to be used for
lnnoculation, to prevent yellow fever,
hut n serum which he believes will cure.
DR.. saranelli said that he had innocu-
lated many horses and other animals
with serum which was intended to
give them mild form of fever and i'm
mune them. In order to immunize a
horse he found lnnoculadun would nave
to be made at Intervals covering four
teen months.
In each case they recovered. He be-
lieves the same results will follow the
same treatment OF persons suffering
from the fever, though as yet he has
been unable to make practical test on
a man. He states that a human being
VIII not yled so readily To yellow fever.
therefore he may make minor changes
In his treatment after testing II.
This, he says. can be easily regulated.

Extraordinary Freak of Nature Near the

Rev. L. S. Bortain, of Puebla, writes
rs follows: "It may be of interest to
some of the readers of the Herald who
visit Puebla 10 know of one of the less
visited attractions in the vicinity of the
City of the Angels. l refer to- the Cox
comate.' 1t is about 20 minutes distant
from Puebla over the street car line to
Cholula. Any street car conductor can
point it out TO the curiosity-seeller. 1t
is to the right of the car line, about 500
yards distant.

pile White stones or well-bleached
haystack. But upon closer inspection
ii proves to be a tumulus of white cal
careous stone evidently Of water for
nation, about so feet in height and 100
feet in diameter at the base. The form
is that of truncated cone. AT the
apex is an elliptical-shared opening
about 25 feet along the minor and so
feet along the major axis. 1t is bell
shaped cavity and lined with ferns of
various descriptions. l should judge
the depth to be at least 100 feet, and at
the bottom, so far as is visible, the open
ing must be 60 feet in diameter. In
the bottom, on one side, are to be seen
some gorgeous ferns and on the other
side pool of water.
Tradition says that the ancient Az
tees were accustomed to worship here
the genius of the spot, and occasional
ly threw in a live victim to appease his
eubterranean majesty. 1t is also said
that a few victims of the inquisition
were thrown down here to reflect upon
the controverted points of doctrine. At
all events it is most singular freak of
nature, as it is in the middle of a level
plain, or rather barley field. Itlooks
to have been some volcanic bubble, of
which the great Mexican upland is so
full, and is well worth a visit on the
part of the curious.

VARIATIONS IN ACORNS.
No Two Seeds Nor Even Two Leaves Ex
actly Alike.

actly Alike.
1t is said that in individual trees
scarcely two leaves can be found exact
ly alike. What is true of leaves is true
of seeds, and, indeed, of every part of
tree. 1t is also true of the behavior
of trees during their life career. In
acorns especially one may note a re-
markable difference in. their behavior.
Some species of acorn will preserve their
vital power without much difficulty for
q couple of years, while others can rare
ly be found with lifeafter few months.
Some when put into the Garth will re-
main months before sprouting, while
others will sprout before they are fairly
out of their cups ON the trees.
The acorns of the live oak of the
south often sprout before they fall.
The process Of terminating is among
the most remarkable of all American
trees. The root pushes out from the
acorn to a distance of many inches be-
fore it enters the ground, the root then
goes into the earth while the bud or
plumule ascends to form the incipient
tree tTunk. he young tree OF tDe i've
oak will frequently be a distance of six
inches from the acorn. In this respect
the behavior Of this species of oak cor
responds nearly with what is almost
universal in monocotyledonous seeds.
Another eF~ly sprouter is the COM
mon white oak. These have not been
known to sprout on the tree, but they
scarcely reach the ground before the
little radicle prepares to enter the
earth. 1t does not wait to get to the
surface of the earth before doing this.
On shelves or boxes where there is some
lumber of them together the whole will
be mass of roots before few weeks
after gathering. On the other hand the
nut of the burr oak will remain long
time before showing any disposition to
sprout. 1t is these varying character
istics which make rules for the trans
portation of seeds difficult, each kind
has to have method of its own. So
far as the two oaks are concerned it has
been found better to send young plants
long distances than the acorns them
seves.-Meehan's Monthly.
