the report Of one Of their examina-
lions two hundred samples Of food
and drink articles were tested. Out
OF this number considerably more than
one-quarter we're found to be Of such
poor quality that they were condemned
altogether. Among the articles exam
ined were flour. butter, lard, milk,
chocolate, fresh eggs, green tea, salad
OIL, lemon extracts, and alcohol and
wines Of various sorts. The most OBJ
jectionable article was butter. Out Of
twenty-five samples twelve had from
Is to Is per cent of oleomargarine, two
were entirely made Of oleomargarine,
and two Others were compounded from
various materials that rendered them
unfit for food. The milk examination
was most extensive and exhaustive.
The commission carried its examina-
ton through about fifteen hundred
places where milk was sold, finding
nearly one hundred cases of adultera-
ton that made the milk unfit for USE.
In many other cases the milk was ex-,
tensively watered. This was consid-.
cred less Objectionable than some Of
the other authorizations, and the water
was for the most part apparently pure.
The worst cases were those in which
milk powders, chalk and various con-
cocted additions had been made. AS
matters now stand in the trade, relia-
bic and reputable dealers do not find
food adulteration very profitable. The
penalties are too heavy in case of de-
lection and the danger of being found
out and acquiring bad reputation Is
ever present before them.

Singing Spiders.

A naturalist who has given many
years of study to some of the smaller
forms of insect.life has discovered that
certain sorts Of spiders are possessed
Of organs, for" which there seems to he
no use save to>create, sound. They are
mostly used when the, little creatures
are alarmed; although the opinion is
held by some that this is their means
of calling to their mates. The alarm
idea, however, has some support in the
case of the rattlesnake, which is pro-
vided with the means of making its
presence known whenever an enemy
approaches. Whether the possession
of organs for creating sound is design
ed merely as protection or warning is
point to which naturalists are giving
careful and enthusiastic attention

the villa. From the garden of the
nearest house rose the voices Of chill
dren at play. Along the road at the
back sounded the roll of wheels. as
carts and carriages passed at intervals.
Out en- the blue sea the distant splash
of the paddles, the distant thump of
the engines, told from time to time of
the passage OF steamers, entering or
leaving the strait between the island
and the mainland. In the trees the
birds sang gayly among the rustling
leaves. In the house the women sery-
ants were laughing over some Jest or
story that cheered them at their work.
1t was lively and pleasant time-a
bright enjoyable day.
The two ladies were out together.
resting on garden seat, after a walk
round the grounds.
They exchanged a few trivial words
relating to the beauty of the day, and
then said no more. Possessing the
same consciousness of what she. had
seen in the trance which persons in
general possess of what they have
seen in dream-believing in the Wis
ion as a supernatural revelation
Clara's forebodirgs were now, to her
mind, realized as truths. Her last
faint hope of ever seeing Frank again
was now at an end. Intimate expert
ence of her told Mrs. Crawford what
was passing in & Ciara's mind, and
warned her that the attempt to reason
and demonstrate would be little better
than voluntary waste of words and
time. The disposition which she had
herself felt, on the previous night, to
attach superstitious importance to
the words that Clara had spoken in
the trance had vanished with the re-
turn of the morning. Rest and ref1ec-
| ticn had quieted her mind and had re-
stored the composing influence of her
sober sense. Sympathizing with Clara
in all besides, she had no sympathy,
as they sat together in the pleasant
sunshine, with Clara's gloomy despair
of the future. She who could still hope
had nothing to say to the sad COM
panion who had done with hope. So
the quiet minutes succeeded each other,
and the two friends sat side by side in
silence.
An hour passed-and the gate-bell Of
the villa rang. They both stapaed-
they both knew the ring. It was the
hour when the postman brought their
newspapers from London. In past
days, what hundreds on hundreds Of
times they had torn of the cover
which enclosed the newspaper and
looked at the same column with the

A Submarine war,h,,.

Both men Of science and officers OF
the navy have been greatly interested
in the successful experiments with the
Holland submarine boat in New York
harbor. The boat is able to run on
the surface at a speed Of sixteen knots,
and when completely submerged at a
speed of ten knots. A gas engine is
used to drive her OF the surface, and
an electric motor, driven by storage
battery, propels, her when she is SUBJ
merged. She stays on an even keel,
and automatic mechanism keeps her at
a constant, depth. When diving, with
