The Paradise Tree.

The paradise tree" is a natural
wonder. Seven of these trees, and no
more, grow in the space of about half
a mile square, in Veraguas, Trinidad
one of the provinces Of the Isthmus,
on the land of one Sen. Romero. Each
tree bears single white flower, which
opens at maturity. when a perfectly
formed flower dove, with outspread
wings, and head lifted upwards, is dis
covered within. The flowers emit an
odor that may be inhaled for at least
half mile from the spot. What is
almost equally strange is the fact that
at certain period Of the year these
trees wither to the very ground, leav
ing small mound of dust from which,
like the tabled Phoenix from it's ashes,
each tree yearly rises to the compile
tion of its perfect flower. 1t has no
Seeds nor can it be propagated by slips
or CRAFTS, o" transplanted. full de-
scription of this tree has been secured,
which was taken down from the lips
of gentleman of known veracity, who
had seen the flowers and learned their
history for the past eighty years.

him money to tide over his dire neces-
Sites" Every physician has his own
dispensary, and consequently there are
very few apothecaries' shops. When
a rich man calls in physician, he does
not expect to receive any bill for med
ical services. In fact, no such thing
as a doctors bill is known in Japan,
though nearly al the modern Fac-
tices are in vogue there. The doctor
has never to ask for his fee; when ne
has finished his visits to a patient, a
present is made to him of whatever
sum the patient or his friends deem
to be just compensation. A Chinese
doctors fee is perhaps the smallest in
the world, ranging from four to ter
cents, but this can be accounted for by
the fact that any one can practice
as doctor or physician, it only being
necessary to hang out a sign intimat-
ing the fact: and, although they are so
numerous they are, as body, the most
respected men in China.

A Remarkable Crane.

The huge travelling crane at the gov
ernment arsenal at Watertown, Mass,
Is one of the most remarkable of mod
ern mechanisms. For long time the
vast machine was propelled by hand,
with at least four helpers required to
run 1t from one point to another by
means of endless chains, and, as the
building is but little short of 300 feet
long, nearly an hour was often con-
sumed in moving it the length of the
building. But the ingenious idea being
conceived of attaching electricity to
the crane and using it for power, the
result realized is so perfect working
of the crane that it will run the length
of the building in one minute. 1t is
handled by man who stands in a
small cage affixed to the crane, and, by
means of four levers, runs the machine
In any direction, hOists or lowers it, or
moves it forward or back The size
or this apparatus appears from the fact
that it does the work of about twenty
men and of six cranes operated by
hand; thus, the lifting of "a ten-inch
gun upon a carriage is now accom-
pl1shed in very few moments, in
stead of, as formerly, requiring hours.

Matching Punctured Eggs.

1t has become time honored GUS
ton with fanciers to puncture eggs
they had to sell on the open market.
doing the work with a needle or pin.
The puncture is made in the end that
contains the air bubble, and the eggs
were rendered unhatchable. OF course
if man that is selling eggs at So per
dozen has to dispose of surplus at
10 cents per dozen it is not for his
interest to have them IN hatchable
condition, else the groceryman would
sell them at an advanced price and
make the profit that belongs to the
fancier But now some smart fellow
has found way Of outWitting the
fancier He simply wakes the end
that has the hole and stops up the
puncture. He places his eggs under
hen or in an incubator, and 10, fair
brood of blooded chicks. Evidently
the fancier will have to turn new
trick or eat his eggs himself.

How the Heart Beats at Night.

The main use of the coverings at
night is to give the body the warmth
that is lost by reduced circulation of
the blood. When the body lies down
it is the intention of nature that it
should rest, and that the heart espe-
cially should be relieved temporarily
of it's regular work. So that organ
makes ten strokes a minute less than
when the body is in an upright pos
ture. Therefore, in the eight hours
that a man usually spends in taking
his nights rest, the heart is saved
nearly 5000 strokes, as it pumps six
ounces of blood with each stroke, it
lifts 10000 ounces less of blood in the
nights session than it would during
the day, when man is usually in an
upright position. Now, the body is de-
pendent for its warmth on the vigor
of the circulation, and as the blood
flows so much more slowly through
the veins when one is lying down, the
warmth lost in the reduced circulation
must be supplied by extra coverings.

the upper part of cattle shed int q
Matching room, as the emanations arts-
ing from the animals beneath would
certainly not be favorable to success
| have found the loft above a stable
excellent for this purpose when prop
erly ventilated, the heat rising from
the horses at night maintaining an
equable temperature in winter. Steps
must always be taken to keep the air
in the Matching room sweet by proper
system of ventilation, and during fine
weather, especially in the middle of
the day, it is an excellent plan to leave
doors and windows open for an hour
or two. The chief difficulty is always
that by a condensation OF the air it
becomes damp, and also that the en-
bryos are affected by the impure air
which surrounds them. When this fact
is fully realized, it is not at all diff
ficult for any poultry keeper to avoid
the difficulty mentioned. But ventila-
tion should be overhead, as the fowls
must not be subjected to draft.

SCIENTIFIC TOPICS
CURRENT NOTES OF DISCOV-
ERY AND INVENTION.
Delicate Machine for the Use of Electric
cians-An Improved Hose Coupler
Does the Work as Quick as Wink
The Use of Liquid Air.
The Use ef Liquid Air.

When liquid air was first discovered
its utility was not obvious, but it is
now found that in medicine and sur
gerry its possibilities are vast. Air alb
solutely free from germs could be fur
nished in any amount, and if the stim-
ulating effect of an excess of oxygen
were desired it could be had without
trouble, quite free from the impurities
which now so often make this gas OBJ
Jectlonable. The temperature of hos
pltal wards even in the tropics could
readily be cooled to any degree pre-
scribed by the physicians in charge,
and by keeping the air about yellow
fever patients down to the freezing
point, nurses would be perfectly pro-
tected against contagion, and the re-
covery of the patients themselves ia
cllltated. Again, the cauterising cold
which liquid air is capable of produc-
Ing might be used in cases of cancer
with great benefit as compared with
nitrate OF silver, since while it abso-
lutely destroys the flesh to which it is
applied, its action is perfectly under
control and can be stopped in an in
stant. 1t is probable, also, that hay
fever, asthma. and even consumption,
could be greatly relieved without
change of climate by this pure, cool,
germless air.-Science Siftings.

The Matching Place,

most important point in the
selection of Matching house or room
is that it shall be dry, by which I do
not mean that there shall be any arti-
hcial dryness, but that the walls and
moor shall not be damp and cold. as
this would be most injurious to the
blrds, making them uncomfortable, and
frequently explains why hens desert
their nests, writes Stephen Beale in
Country Gentleman. A damp house can
never be warm. While it is ALWAYS
wise to select rather dark place. it
is all the better if facing the south
because there the sun has more power
to keep it both warm and dry One
with north aspect is not nearly 50
good, and should not be selected The
air should be sweet and pure and suf-
nclent in quantity, for the oxygen
would be speedily absorbed unIoss
properly ventilated if a number -,
sltters were kept in one building at the
same Time only within the last few
years has the importance of the at
mosphere in Matching been fully ro,1-
lzed; but it is question which cannot
be ignored Some time ago a sentlo-
man who has made very careful oh
servations with regard to artif1cia, in
cubation stated that he believed tho
great majority of added eggs and
deaths in shell were directly caused bv
impure air, or an insufficient SUNNY
and the same is equally true with re-
gard to sitting hens, although. q,
course, from the fact that there is M
lamp burning in the room, the danger
Of contamination is less than where
artificial methods are employed. For
this reason it is not desirable to make

Rearing Chicks.

i requires a liberal education to rear
chicks with small loss, at least lib
eral education in the direction OF
knowing all about poultry. Who has
not experienced the disappointment
that 2 50-per cent loss of the chicks
brings? A thousand dangers threaten
the little ones. We think we are do
il g the right thing when we turn the
chicks out onto nice piece of bare
ground where they can scratch. IL
they cannot get enough angle worms
we dig some for them. Who could inn
agihe that we were thus working for
Their destruction? Along comes the
report of the department of agricul-
ture and shows us that gapes in
chicks are caused by the angle worms
that we have been feeding or that
they have scratched up from the
ground. We thus reverse our method
for one of greater safety. This is but
one illustration Of the price we pay
for not knowing. The subject is
great one. Doubtless most of the
chicks that die are born healthy and
would live did we but give them
proper care. But to give proper care
requires a wide and long and deep
study Of the questions involved.

EurOpe's Silver Mines,

Spain produces annually about 12O,-
900 pounds of silver, and this amount
exceeds the production of any other
European country, but it is found in
many different parts, and is often as
sociated with other metals. Formerly
the mines at Hiendelaencina. in the
province of Guadalajara, would have
been considered richer than any other
in Europe. but now they are not so
productive. For some years after their
chance discovery by peasant. in
1S43, they yielded an immense quan-
tity of the precious metal. We have,
therefore, to go to the rzebirge, or
Silver mountains, which form the boun-
dairy between Saxony and Bohemia to
find the mines that are most produc-
tive. They have been worked for
over six hundred years, and, although
some of the mines are exhausted and
others are worked at great depths, they
still form the chief silver mining GEN.

nection is absolutely water tight, the
two parts are at the same time loose
and perfectly free to swivel upon each
other. Connections can be made or
broken while the water pressure (even
if 100 pounds) is on. A quarter-turn

THEATRICAL TOPICS.
SOME SAYINGS AND DOINGS
IN STACELAND.
Caesar and Cleopatra" as Drama tized
by George i. Shaw-Says That Shakes
peare's Portrayal OF the Roman Die
tatOr Was an Abortion.

1t appears that the new play, "Cae-
sar and Cleopatra which has been
written by that brilliant but eccentric
egotist, George B. Shaw, is in five acts
and nine scenes, and calls for elabo-
rate scenic preparation and much stage
room for Roman and Egyptian armies.
Mr.. Shaw says modestly of his own
work: THE play has been written to
redeem English dramatic literature
from the reproach Of having no better
portrait of julius Caesar than the
wretched abortion by Shakespeare.
Ills CLEOPATRA too, though very clev

Annie Hughes is to the London
stage something like Annie Russell is
to ours, but with more of the touch Of
grotesQue. She was the original ac-
tress Of the flower girl in "A Bit Of Old
Chelsea which Mrs. Fiske introduced

called Matches" in which she por-
trays a cockney street girl who devel-
ops into fine lady.
Ellen Terry has been received with
extraordinary popular enthusiasm dur
ing the brief starring tour which she is
making on her own account, previous
to her return to the London Lyceum
stage with Sir Henry Irving. 1t has
been found impossible to accommodate
the crowds who wished to see her.

acts. Its period is 1898, the time OF
crusade, and the scene is placed in
England. 1t is written in verse and
prose, on an original theme. The
main interest lies in the love of Os-
bern for Ursyne, but the plot does not
deal with the ordinary love story.
"Will Mrs. Carter prove the one to
displace Ada Rehan?" In this cOnnec-
ton an eastern writer says: "It is a
death struggle between David Belasco
and Augustin DAILY. Each is unrivaled
except by the other in the develop
ment of talent; each has brought forth
an actress of genius, and each is in
tent that his pupil shall hold the
chief place in the drama of America
Ada Rehan has the impregnable posi-
tion, but Leslie Carter has the merit
of novelty, which, in country as
whimsical as our own, is quality of
value. These are the heavy weights
of the theater who outclass all other
contestants. Miss Rehan is not in
fighting form at present, but when her
health is restored we shall see a bat
tie of the gods between Katharine and
Zaza."
One of the scenes in "Zaza" which
always moves the audience to tears is
that showing the meeting between

water my chickens in jars or jugs,
putting them out in different places,
SO the fowls will always have plenty
of water says a correspondent of Ne
braska Farmer. Fill jar or jug and
turn it bottom side up on plate. Put
under the mouth Of the jar some little
pieces of iron like small nails to raise
it up, just high enough to let the water
out. but be careful that you do not
raise it too high or the water will all
run out If you do not put something
under it the air will shut off the
water. The jug will tip over very
easily so you will have it to drive some
stakes down to hold il bottom up.
Now, | don't say this is the best way
for every one to water fowls 1t is for
me.
Milk Sent to Creameries.-There is a
profit to the farmer in milk sent to
creameries over that kept at home,
provided the cost of hauling it to and
from the creamery be not too great.
But this obstacle is done away with
where one farmer is secured to do the
hauling. At the creamery the farmer
has his milk put in shape where it will
bring a higher average price than will
the milk if kept at home and made
into average farm butter.
Whey-Fed Calves.-At 4 recent dairy
meeting farmer said that he had fed
calves on whey that had been pasteur-
lied and found it complete success,
but some skimmilk was mixed with it.
As soon as the calves are a week old
oats are placed before them, and thew
soon learn to eat a good many whole
oats. When they are old enough to eat
corn that also is given them, but corn
is not given under eight weeks.

pleasantly remember the songs and it's
clever rhymes. To say it pleases the
women would be drawing it mild. The
singers not only hold their strict attention,
but also have the full sympathy of the fair
ones, for each and every one has had their
own little love affairs But one good song
does not constitute THE Geisha," there
are dozen or more as pretty gems as
one delights to hsar The women in the
company are bright with we'll trained
voices, while the production, scenery and
costumes are from Days Theatre New

stage settings and harmony OF oolors. The
Company numbers sixty people and carries
its own orchestra.
