We are so nsed to thinking of the soil IS mere mineral matter that it comes quite as a shock to find this is a mistake.
 As a matter of fact, the layer of soft mold which clothes the ground in all cultivable districts and from which vegetation springs is actually i'll great part living layer of tiny plants and animals
 Interlacing threads of molGs and fungi, worms and grubs, creeping in- sects, tiny root parasites, deeaying leaves and the millions of bacteria which spring from them-all these are mixed and mingled together for many inches down below our feet in a con- fused mass of life. Germs of all sorts swarm in countless millions.
 Indeed, all the plants that grow and life that exists on the face of the earth owe their being to the fact that the ground is alive. You take a shovelful of the finest soil in the world and sterilize it-that is beat 1t till all the life in it is destroyed-and then plant seeds in it No amount of care or watering will make those seeds grow Their life de- pends on the life in the soil around them.

Grant and LonEstreet.


 General Grant had as much 70 do with Longstreet's becoming a Republic an as any one else. They had been schoolmates at West Point. had been graduated the same year and received their commissions at the same time. They fought among the cactus bushes of Mexico and had drunk mescal from the same jug a thousand times. 1t was at Jefferson Barracks, near St LOuis, that Longstreet introduced his cousin, Miss Julia Dent, to Grant, and it was Long street himself who told the young lady of the worth of his friend. They were married, and the Georgian was at the wedding. When they next saw each other, it was at Appomattox. After the formalities of the surrender were over General Grant took General LOngstreet to one side and said:
 Julia wants to see you Go home and see your family and then come to see me, won't you:"
 Longstreet promised, and he kept his word. When General Grant became president, he asked for his advice and begged that his former adversary now be one of his advisers. General Grant never had a truer friend during his ad ministration. They knew each other. When the tragedy took place at Mount McGregor, Longstreet suffered as if it were the loss of brother. He has often visited the tomb on the Hudson and has laid the gentlest tribute of friend upon the marble.-Chicago Times-H Herald.

The Place veudome In Paris.

The Paris correspondent of London paper says that, though always stately and imposing, the Place VendCn.e is by no means a lively part of Paris. It has retained through long years the char acteristics for which it was noted in the reign of the grand monarque, Louis XIV, for whom it was planned and laid out. Of late few good shops have ap- peared here and there among the houses on the place, and it is proposed to add to the number of these business estab- lishments Hence ill a comparatively brief space of time the buildings around Napoleon's column will be brilliantly diversified, and stately monOtony will disappear. The Place Vendcme may in a few years, or even less, be able to dis tance the RCe de la Paix as locality for afternoon shopping. tea drinking and Irritation.
