gestlbllity and the presence of less

This belief is shaken by the analyses
made by the medical men referred to-,
which show that while white meats,
such as poultry and fish, do in certain
cases, as fish and fresh venison, con-
tam less extrsctive and heterogeneous
derivatives. the average amount does
not appreciably differ in dark and
white meats such as poultry, veal, beet,

HOW PLANTS GAIN WEIGHT.
inear Growth In AvordupoAs Comes
Wholly from Gas in
the Air.

AS Tar as is known the first botanical
experiment ever performed was con-
Quoted by Dutchman. He placed in a
pot 200 pounds of dried earth, and in it
he planted a willow branch which
weighed five pounds. He kept the VIII ole
covered up ard daily watered the earth
with rain wud1er. A1ter hive years
growth the willow was again weighed
and was found to have gained 1854
pounds. The earth in the pot was dried
and weighed and had lost OILY two
.ou- ceS.
TNe'sxperimentalist, therefore e, looked
up' n a')s experiment disappearing the
theory that plants required no food but
water. But he was wrong. Later, it
was discovered that much of the in
crease in weight of plants was derived
from carbonlc acio gas in the air.
Ve"etable cells contain a LIQUID
kns wn as cell sap" which is water
holding in solution various materials
which have been taken up from with
out by tire roots and leaves. Thus it is
in the living cells of the plant that
those "dagestiye" processes are carried
on which were once beheved to occur
in the soil.

s. Cyclists-The number of cyclists
IN the European armies has been
gradually increasing of late years. AS
long ago as 1894 England had over
5000 in her army. Italy is now or
ganizing a cyclist company in each
Bersaglieri regiment, for reconnais-
sance and messenger duty, and
special engineer seotion, for the rapid
destruction of railroads and telegraph
lines; France has a cyclist company
for each army corps and cavalry divi-
sion, Russia eight cyclists in each
regiment, aud other nations use q con
stapuy increasing number in the
autumn mauHuvres.
2. Automobiles - Automobiles are
to be used not only behind the front
of the armies-that is, with the trains
but also at the front with the troops
themselves. At the last French
man@uvres they were employed TO
transport the outposts, for carrying
orders, etc, and at the last German
manmuvres eight such wagons, some
large traction benzine motors and
other small automobiles, were used
with such success that number OF
both kinds have since been ordered
for the army. The purpose OF the
larger wagons is to transport ammuni
ton, supplies, aud material; their
great advantage iS>their speed aud the
fact that they reduce ebN, half TO two

the trains on account of their great

Then, aud only then, did the mean.
ing of the picture flash upon me.
Alistair had been murdered in that
very bungalow, III that very chair by
his DulTadar.
With haste born of fear, ! set to
work to develop the second plate.
Slower 1T came up, till at last rec.
ognized the familiar banks of the
muddy river, as they could be seen
from the bungalow. Every ripple
came out distinctly under the low
light of the setting sun, and on the
broad breast OF the slow moving vel
low water there iloated, half sub.
merged, with n vulture circliug above
lt--n something something with tho
face Of AlistHir, and there, in these
two plates, the tragedy OF his death
lay like an open book before me.
Mir Khan had lied. Grahame had
put up al this bungalow, he had beol
murdered there, and his body thrown
into the river.
All my nervous fears had vanished.
My ono thought was, rs | carefully
washed the plates, that. at last. we
should he able to bring the murderer
to Justice, aud yet-would these plates
be evidence in II court of law? True,
they were faithful likouesses of the
two mon, but who had taken the pho.
tographs, and how was to account
for their presence i'll my camera?
But even a turned the matter
over IN my mind, tiny breeze came
up the river. 1t loosened the latchet
OF the bathroom shutter aud swung it
open. Then it freshed aud swung it
close again. Before | had time to put
out my hand, the heavy corner caught
the plates that were drying ON the
ledge. There was littlo crash. aud
then all that remained to me of the
proof of Abstain Grahame's murder
was-a tiny heap of broken glass.
