Several Washington merchants are

people for fear itmigbt offend some
Il their city customers who don't con-
ider it "the proper thing" to be seen
a a store with country people. They
want the cash of country people when
the same can be secured without any
outward sign of a desire to reach out

firms in the city recently refused to
advertise in the columns of the CITI-

the trade of the people of Virginia and

Honolulu is rousing itself to the
danger it runs from rats, animals
which, by common consent of scien.
tifc men. are the most certain agents
for the dissemination OF tho bubonie
plague.
Rats take the plague easily and
carry it for n considerable time before
they die. After being stricken they
retire to their holes, where, they hide
for days until pain and terror drive
them out to court the society Of
human beings. They enter kitchens
where cooking is going on they seek
occupied beds at night; they get un.
der foot in ones drawing room; they
enter the nurseries where children
play. In this stage of the disease in
lection goes with them like an atmos
phere. When dead and not destroyed
by human beings, they are likely &c
be eaten by rowing members Of their
own species, thus increasing rat NOR
tality, or they may be eaton by the
family pet cat.

According to investigations by n.
@. Rothschild, who is engaged in the
scientific study of heas and their
habits, there is evidence showing that
there was originally direct land con
nection between Australia aud South
America, inasmuch as a certain Gea
has been found in Argentina which
has hitherto been represented by n
certain species in Australia. The
Argentine flea, which has n helmet
like shield covering the head, ia found
on the rat, and has been Professionally
assigned to genus represented
hitherto by single Australian 5peci-
men. Whether the two specimens in
question belong to the same genus or
not may be open to question, bat at
any rate they are closely allied, and
it is difficult to see how they coIld
have occurred in their respective To-
calities unless there had been some
means OF direct communication.
While such a circumstance Of itself
does not provo that there was land
connection between Australia and
South America, yet it serves TO CON
firm other evidence indicating that
such was the case.

Salomon Reinach has recently con.
tributed to PAnthropologie an inter
esting article on the tin trade of pre-
historic Europe, in which he states
that 1000 years b. G. there was an al.
most exclusively overland trade be.
tween the British Islands and Thrace
and Macedonia That there were
such commercial relations between
Britain and Europe and Asia is shown
by the diffusion of tin and bronze
weapons and various utensils which
have been studied by arch@ologists.
Allusions to Celtic names and facts
are also recorded of the time of 500
b. O., and it is believed the tin in
question was brought to Greece either
by Greeks or Barbariaus. The latter
sought marine route in order to
keep the trade in their own hande.
