quantity of material necessary to en-
able the young to acquire a well-built
case; there is never an excess. 1t is
interesting to note that the difflugia
does not act differently from other an
imals possessing more highly compli-
Gated organizations and endowed with
differentiated nervous systems"
Some cells, instead of moveing about
by the action of feelers. have hairs
which yibrate rapidly and propel them
to and fro. These cells manipulate the
hairs so as to back water, dart forward
or stand still at will, and they go
through these motions always with a
purpose, either to seize prey, to escape
danger or to lie at rest or in wait for
a chance to pick up particle of food.
The cells on the windpipe walls move in
one direction, forcing up any intru-
sive matter toward the top, where it
may be coughed out and got rid of. As
rule, these cells multiply by division.
Some germs, according to Professor
Conn of the chair of biology in Wes-
leyan University, split up every half
hour or so. He says:
1T is this power of multiplication by
division that makes bacteria agents Of
such significance. Their minute size
would make them harmless if it were
not for an extraordinary power of null
tiplication. This power Of growth and
division is almost incredible. Some OF
the species which have been carefully
watched under the microscope have
been found under favorable conditions
to grow so rapidly as 20 divide every
half hour, or even less. The number
of offsprings that would result in
twenty-four hours at this rate is. OF
course, easily computed. In one day
each bacterium would produce over
16,500,000 descendants, and in two days
about 2S1, 500, 600, 600. 1t has been fur
Their calculated that these 281 500, 000,-
OUO would form ABOUT q SOlld pint or
bacteria, and weigh about pound OF
course, these numbers have no signif-
canoe. for they are never actual or pos
sible numbers. Long before the Off
spring reach even to the millions their
rate of multiplication is checked either
by lack of food or by the accumulation
of their own exereted products, which
are injurious to them. But the figures
~ what an unlimited power of multi
plieation these organisms have. and
thus show us that in dealing with bac-
terra we are dealing with a force of al
most unlimited extent.

nourished developes into a separate
tree itself. When this cell knows that
in due course she shall have bud to
provide for she sends. ont feelers and
gathers in particles of sand which she
pulls into her own little hut. When
the bud appears it is merely globule
of protoplasm like the mother. As the
bud separates she drops bran-new
house over it and wishes 1t long life
and a merry one. Professor VerWorn
was studying this particular cell In his
aquarium. He powdered bit of color
ed glass and put it on the floor of the
aquarium near the cell. She fancieN
the color at once and Immediately built
a beautiful blue glass house for her
next bud, instructing him assae entered
it to be careful about throwing stones.
In commenting on this Alfred Binet
says: 1.-TWO facts are to be remarked
in this observation. First, the act
whereby the difflugia collects the ma
terials for providing the young indi-
vidual with case is an act Of preadap-
tation to an end not present, but re-
mote;, this act. therefore. has all the
marks of an instinct. Further, the in
stinct of the difflugia exhibits great
precision, for the difflugia not only
knows how to distinguish, at the bot
tom of the water, the materials available
for its purpose, but it takes only the

Cells are pretty much everywhere. In
all parts Of the body and in the various
channels; as the red and white cor
puscles of the blood; the hairy cells in
the windpipe, which help to clear it Of
anything that might clog it; the cells
of the inteStines, which select the food
particles as these pass along; the cells
in other parts of the body, which are
on the lookout for the sort of
stuff each especial part needs for
growth or repair; the cells that live
outside the body, some in the water,
wee things with appalling names, in
the air or in the food upon which man
subsists, having names always in in
verse proportion to their size-all these
have been under the microscope and
have given evidence Of intelligence.
They have the elements of mind.
In Europe and America, and in Asia
eyen-for in Japan and in India germs
are under careful inyestigation-the
literature of cells is growing rapidly.
Any physician, which term, of course,
excludes Christian Scientists, can hold
forth interestingly upon the habits of
many kinds of cells, how they move
about, what they feed on, what they
like or dislike, what fattens them,
what kills them, and how they increase
and multiply. The facts the investi-
gators have gathered are valuable dis

coveries of much use in the arts and
students may never learn just what a
cell is, either, for that matter, beyond
the fact OF its being matter in motion.
They have learned enough, however, to
show Punch's "sciolist'' that he is only
clever, not wise.
The student Of mental phenomena
has taken to the microscope and cells,
too-not the cells of the asylum. but
the same sort the anatomiSt is study
ing. Psychology and physiology are
hand in glove. They show the ele-
ments of mental life to be associated
with the lowest forms Of physical life.
Whatever life is they say it is force
which always has existed and always
will exist. Wherever it is associated
with matter, SO that matter lives, there
will be motion and some activity of the
kind that thought consists of.
The white corpuscles of the blood, for
instance, are like policemen. When
anything threatens harm in the blood
vessels they respond to the call of the
Waterman on guard. These white cor
puscles make it interesting for an in
truder, and put up game fight, no
matter how great the odds.
Alfred Binet describes the cells that
line the walls of the alimentary canal.
These cells watch for the food as it
passes from the stomach. and select
such particles as are proper for nour-
ishing the body, and send them off in
to the distributing passages. They
make this selection by reaching out
feelers. The method of reaching is Gu
rious. Whatever part of the cell is
nearest the particle of food reaches out
for it. The surface of the cell is plae-
tic. One part can reach out as well as
another, and when it has seized the
particle the rest of the cell closes
around it and swallows it, for any part
of this strange elastic surface can be
a mouth as we'll as a finger or a foot.
HOW THEY MULTIPLY.
Professor Verworn has experimental
with an individual cell known as the
difflugia urceolata, which is common in
ponds in New Jersey and Pennsylvania
The accompanying cut shows it nagni-
fed 125 diameters. 1t lives in a tiny
hut it builds for itself. or its parent
builds for it, out of minute particles of
sand eemented together by a secretion
it manufactures from water. 1t selects
these particles and puts them in posi-
ton by means of its pseupodia It

not matter of inches or fractions of

They might have chosen a better
word than cells, however. DR.. Wilson
says cell" is a biological misnomer"
and refers to the word "energid,"
which the great German investigator,
Sachs, used. Cell, says DR.. Wilson,
means an empty space enclosed by
walls. Now the cecil with C. y which
Punch refers to is not empty 1t has a

quently, particularly where there are
young children. A few reliable hints
are here given to remove these ugly
spots
Coffee and tea stains are the most
common and the most frequent. For
coffee stains, beat a tablespoonful OF
tepid water into the yolk Of an egg and
apply to the spot; then wash in warm,
not hot. water.
Usually an application of glycerine
mixed with an egg yolk win cause tea
stains to disappear as If by magic.
Should they prove too stubborn for this
remedy try dissolying quarter of a
pound each of chloride of lime and
common soda in three quarts of boil
ing water. Dip the stains in this solu-
ton and then wash in soft water.
For fruit stains, pouring boiling
water. hot soda water or hot chloride
water through the spot will sometimes
suffice. When this is unsuccessful or
when you wish to remove wine stains
or iron rust. wet the spot with solu-
tion of hydrophosphite of soda, then dip
in strong vinegar. Finally wash as
usual (if chloride water is used wash
in cold water). This is less apt to rot
linen than the application of stAng
acid.
II is a more rare occurrence that oil
colors, varnish or rosin are allowed to
stain your table damask, but when such
an accident happens apply turpentine.

in soap and water. In the event of an
old stain don't be afraid to let it lie in

hours; then rub between the hands.

them, may be removed by the applica-
