Wonders of the InfinitesimaI.

There are so very many things other
wise unknowable which the little in,
strument helps us to know well, which
infinite were it not for that tiny bit Oh
convex glass, that nothing should sur
prise US in its revelations.
Take, for example, the red corpuscles
of the human blood One thirty-two,
hundredth of an inch is its diane
ter One hundred and twenty -one-thou-
sandths of the entire blood quantity is
red corpuscles. They are individually
so minute that it requires microscope
Of consi derable power to see them at
all, and yet their number is such in one
man that if chain were made of them
each corpuscle just touching its neigh
Dor, it would be over 2, 600 miles long.
Three gallons Of blood in man of
40 pounds weight is fair average,
and 0. 1881 of a gallon of the above is
red globules. One cubic inch of these
corpuscles made into chain of single
corpuscle's breadth would be 3, 200 times
5000 inches long, or /, 10000 inches.
x
Ion 0. 38l Of 231 would give the cubic
measure of red globules in the above
man. Thus 600, 600 times SO gives
140, $500, 00s inches. R& uced to miles
this equals, counting 81, $50 inches to the
mile, 2,222 miles. The little invisible
red corpuscles or oxygen carriers of our
blood would then, if "hitched" together
into a chain, reach two-t thirds across
The American continent. A single hair
from ones head would make in caliber
very many tibers as large.
And yet small as these corpuscles
are, they are giants when compared
with many we'll known individuals of
the bacterial world. Think of a body
which has to be magnified 500 diane
tiers to be visible at all You have here
some of the monococci. Yes, and these

An American Discovery.
John Morrow, an Emiuent Chemist, of
Springfield, o., finds Remedy that
Promises to RevolutiOnize the
Practice Of Medicine.

The present year will always be a nota-
BILE one in the history of the 18th century
for the many wonderful discoveries it re-
cords. Every branch of science has made
great strides, the most remarkable. per-
haps, have been made in the practice of
medicine. Now comes the information
that John Morrow an eminent chemist of
Springfield, o., has discovered a remedy
that promises to be almost infallible in
curing all diseases of the kidneys. So
many of the most important advances of
medical science are made by foreign sci
entistS that such report is not only of
great import but highly gratifying as well
Morrow's discovery. while the true in
gradients have not yet been published is in
the form of yellow tablet and is known
to the medical world as MorrOw's Kidne-
Oids. This remarkable remedy has been
tried in some of the most severe cases of
chronic and acute diseases of the kidneys,
and i'll each case has quickly produced the
most beneficial results
The fact that death from Bright's dis
ease shows a daily increase is an unpleas-
ant indication that disorder of the kidneys
is fast becoming an atf1iction of the human
race, and any remedy that promises sure
relief is indeed blessing to mankind.
The symptoms of deranged kidneys are
too apparent to require a physicians di-
agnOsis pain in the side and back, aching
bones, a continual feeling of languor, are
follOWeu DN lHlpdllfu NlSlOu, loss OF appe-
tite, swelling of the hands and feet, and
so on until Bright's disease gets hold.
1t is so insidious in its attack that the
busy man or woman often associates the
symptoms with some trifling ailment, I'M
til the development of the disease causes .
a complete collapse. With MOrrow's Kid
neoids it is intended to remedy all this by
enabling anyone to stop the progress of
the disease and effect a permanent cure
without resource TO a physician or the
of their duties.
1t is said that one of the largest drug
in the United States is negoti-
ating for the absolute control of Morrow's
which they intend placing in
every drug store, where it can be procur-
ed by any one without the necessity of
securing physicians prescription.

The Drag Rope of the Balloon.


1t is not generally known that the
drag rope, now so indispensable to bal
loonists, was first used by Aeronaut
Samuel King of this city 1.-The idea of
using such rope" says Professor
King, twas first suggested by the ia
nous Green of England. He called it a
guide rope, and he carried one with him
in trip across the English channel,
but he never used it. Away back in
1857 | was making captive ascensions
at New Haven, and, having finished
that business, decided to take short
voyage to test the value of the trailing
rope. | had 100 pounds of rope on my
windlass, and on a certain day l ar
ranged with my assistant to cut the
rope at the windlass after had got my
balloon in the air and let me sail off. |
ballasted my balloon so that only half
the weight of the rope, or rs pounds,
should trail. l got off all right, with
my rope twisting along under me like a
snake A score of misguided laborers in
field, imagining that the balloon had
broken loose by accident, grabbed the
rope and held me. 1t took me some
time to convince them that l didn't
want to be stopped. sailed along for
some time and found that the drag rope
gave greater stability to the balloon,
but the action of the sun upon the gas
worked against me. The suns heat, ex-
banding the gas, gave me false buoy
ancy, picked up my rs pounds of rope
and severed my connection with the
ground. After that l used the drag rope
very frequently, and it was generally
adopted by aeronauts. "-Philadelphia

No Need of Worry.

In all ages very good people get very
much atfrigbted. 1t is often so in our
day, and men say: why, look at the
bad lectures; look at the spiritualistic
societies; look at the various errors 60
ing over the church of God. We are 60
ing to founder; the church is going to
perish; she is going down." Oh, how
many good people are affrighted by tri-
umphant iniquity in our day and think
the church of Jesus Christ and the
cause of righteousness are going to be
overthrown and are just as much
atfrlghted as the disciples of my text
were atfrighted. Don't worry, don't
fret, as though iniquity were going to
triumph over righteousness.
A lion goes into cavern to sleep. He

Gossamer thread after gossamer thread

cavern is covered with the spiders web
and the spiders say, 1.-The lion is done;
the lion is fast" After awhile the lion
has got through sleeping. He rouses him
self, he shakes his name, he walks out
into the sunlight, he does not even
know the spiders web is spun, and with

Incipient Paresis of a Walter.
A western lawyer went into the

St. Louis Republic. He had not al

college days in the east was we'll
enough acquainted with the French
bills of fare of swell New York restaur-
ants. But out in his new home he had
forgotten about soup au pot gras and
pomme de terre la duchesse. The fact
that he could not. read some of the del
icacies on the menu exasperated him,
and he proceeded to have fun with the
waiter.
Nothing here that I'd care for" said
he to the claW-hammered attendant.

any,"

that was obtainable, and he flew off t

An eye witness who took somewhat
jocose view of the days events wrote
that the most remarkable feature about
Jackson as he marched down the aisle
of the senate with a quick, large step,
as though he proposed to storm the
capitol, was his double pair of spec
tacles. He habitually wore two pairs,
one for reading and the other for see
ing at distance, the pair not in use
being placed across the top of his head
On this occasion, says the eye witness,
the pair on his head reflected the light.
and some of the rural admirers Of the
old hero were firmly persuaded that
they were two plates of metal let into
his head to close up holes made nv
British bullets. When he appeared on
the pOrtico we are told that the shout
which arose rent the air and seemed to
shake the very ground. The cere-
mony ended, the general mounted his
horse to proceed to the white house,
and the whole crowd followed him.

An abundance of refreshments had

the glasses. Inside the house the
crush was so great that distribution of

Logan and McCOok.

Johnnie Logan is a nice young man,
of dudish proclivities, possessing
handsome face, a swarthy complexion,
proper figure and rich wife. He is
a brother-in-law by marriage of Col.
Leslie Bruce, their wives being daugh-
tiers of the Pittsburg iron founder, the
great Andrews. Johnnie's name was
Manning when he was an infant, but
his mother changed it to John Alexan-
der to commemorate his fathers gall
lantry at Vicksburg and Stone Noun
tain. Johnnie has been a breeder of
hackneys, driver of fourth hands, a
racer of thoroughbreds, the "Prince CT
Youngstown" and an embryonic poll
tician. He breathed the air that the
car breathed at Moscow, and fingered
on the spot where fell the snow that
was trodden by the feet and defeat of
Napoleon. He wore on that historic
occasion a uniform, and now wants to
destroy the remnant of the clan "Fight-
ing McCooks." Inasmuch as Johnnie
was not officially accredited to the car
I shouldn't think it made any differ
ence what kind of uniform he wore.
