at hear from an American CORE
,spondent," says Truth, Of London,
"that a number of chairs with carved
backs, purporting to be made from the
wood of pews in the parish church at
Stratford-on-AYon, are now offered for
sale at Boston, Mass. The backs OF
the chairs are elaborately carved, and
are surmounted by q reproduction OF
the Prince of Wales crest, and the
character of the construction and cary
Ing has suggested some doubt about
the authenticity Of these relics. l
should be sorry to express an opinion
on the subject one way or another, but
the parish church Of Stratford has
been restored and restored to such an
extent of late years that there can be
very little left Of the. original fabric
left on the spot by this time, and rag
ments of it are no doubt scattered
all over the face Of the earth. 1t may
be that some one who knows more on
the subject than do can throw some
light on the fate of the old pews."

A Great Hound.

The greatest fox chase of which
there is any record took place in the
neighborhood of Long Branch, in
Meade county, Ky, the other week.
Ben Matthews, colored man living
at Long Branch has foxhound named
Queen. One evening that week, when
the air was soft, Queen and her COM
panion, Don, together with Jim Bick-
erstaff's "Old Maize" started for the
hills near by, and were not long ab-
sent when they started vigorous old
fox. By their vigorous mouthings it
was known that they had warm scent
and were on the trail of fox of fine
staying qualities. For several hours
during the night the residents OF that
vicinity could hear all three hounds
together, and then the two male dogs
dropped out of the run, leaving Queen
to keep up the chase alone. All night
long she followed the trail, and along
toward morning was joined by some
fresh hounds: who stayed with her for
a few hours, fell out, rested up and
joined in the chase again at intervals
during the next twenty hours.
On the second day of the chase Will
LaGrand's 'Tige,' hound noted for
it's staying qualities, joined her and
remained until the close of the run.
Queen was on the run, without rest,
the entire thirty-six hours consumed
in the chase. She stopped only when
she had run reynard to cover. After
she had accomplished this she lay
dowr and guarded the burrow, and
when found by her owner was so stiff
and sore that she could not move limb
and had to be carried to the house.
Matthews, her owner, thinks she is the
best foxhound on earth, aud would not
trade her for the best horse in Ken
tucky.-Breckinridge (Ky.) News.

1t is well known that Henry Clay
was remarkable for his recollection OF
faces. The following curious illustra-
ton of this wonderful power occurred
at Clinton, while he was on his way to
jackson, Miss.

when On eccentric, but strong-minded,
man made his way up to him, rex-
claiming as lie did so, Don't introduce
me, for want to see if Mr.. Clay will
know me-"
"Where did know you" asked Mr..
Clay.
"In Kentucky" answered the old
man.
Mr.. Clay struck his long, bony finger
upon his forehead, as if in deep
thought. Then noticing that the man
had but one eye, he asked, "Have you
lost that eye since I saw you, or had
you lost it before?"
"Since," was the reply.
"Then turn the sound side of your
face to me that I may get your pro-
fle."
Mr.. Clay paused a moment, his
thoughts running back many years.
II have it," he cried. "Did you not
give me verdict as juror, at Frank
fort, Ky, in the great case Of the
United States versus Innis, twenty one
years ago."

joyed man.

Sunlight, says the Ian ,et, has a
well-known effect upon the life of
pathogenic organisms. Direct sun
light will kill tubercle bacilli in few
hours or perhaps in few minutes,
whereas they will live for days if ex-
posed to a very strong diffused day
light. The exhilaratine effect OF n
burstof sunshine in r. .pring is prob
ably not d. lie luminosity, but
to an increased actinic action, chem
ical action which we cannot very we'll
explain, but which every one feels.
In estimating, therefore, the value OF
health resort, the amount OF this
actinic value in the sunshine ought to
be taken into account, no less than the
number of days upon which the sun
shines during the month OF the year.

The breeding of orchids has received
much attention in recent years, both
in Europe aud America, with results
of the greatest interest to the natural
history student. Up to 1860, states
Mr. G. G. Hurst, but four lowered
orchids, raised from distinct crosses,
were recorded; in 1890, about 200 had
been enumerated, while there are now
on record no less than 500. OF these
800, about 100 are generic hybrids,
the parents belonging to different gem
era. About 500 are primary hybrids;
thet is, hyb,ids of the first generation
between two different species, about
27O are secondary hybrids, and 30 are
tertiary. No hybrid orchid OF the
fourth generation has been known to
flower. These experiments have dem
onstrated the existence OF natural
hybrids, formerly thought to be i'm
possible, have proven that hybrids are
very fertile, removing an objection to
the theory of the evolution of species
admitted by Darwin, and have sug-
gested that hybridization has been one
of natures rapid and effective means
of creating new species more fitting
for life under new conditions.

An Excellent Combination.

The pleasant method and beneficial
effects of the well known remedy,
SYRUP OF FIGS, manufactured by the
CALIFORNIA FIG SYRUP Co., illustrate
the value of obtaining the liquid laxa-
tive principles of plants known to be
incidentally laxative and presenting
them in the form most refreshing to the
taste and acceptable to the system. 1t
is the one perfect strengthening laXa'
tive, cleansing the system effectually,
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
gently yet promptly and enabling one
to overcome habitual constipation per-
manently. Its perfect freedom from
every Objectionable quality and SUBJ
stance, and its acting on the kidneys,
liver and bowels, without weakening
or irritating them, make it the ideal
laxative.
In the process of manufacturing figs
are used, as they are pleasant to the
taste, but the medicinal qualities OF the
remedy are obtained from senna and
other aromatic plants, by a method
known to the CALIFORNIA FIG SYRUP
Co. only. In order to get its beneficial

The progress OF the various re-
searches into the origin of malaria,
is subject of considerable interest,
and medical men are gratitied to hear
Of steady advances in the prosecution
of several Investigations. In the pro-
ceedings of the Reale Academia del
Lincei the work Of Messrs. Bastianelli,
A. Bignami, and Grassi is described,
and it is stated that they have sue
ceeded in tracing the development of
the semilunar bodies in the medal in
testine of Anopheles claviger kept at
suitable temperature after these in
sects had drawn blood from individ-
uals suffering from estivi-autnmnal
malaria. They have also been able to
obtain spring fever by allowing one OF
the insects to pierce the skin of a per-
son who had not previously been
affected by malaria, and who was liv-
ing in locality where the disease was
not experienced. In an elaborate
series of researches they have proved
that the malarial parasite is an authen-
tic case of hetorocism, where the same
organism appears under different
forms. It is of interest to know that
concurrently with these observations
the life cycle of parasite of the bat
has been studied, which apparently
undergoes similar alterations of gem
erations, the intermediary host being
m insect. These conclusions are in
agreement with previous investiga-
tions in the malarial parasites OF birds,
and are considered substantial addi-
tions to the knowledge of the subjects
now possessed by scientists.
