Artificial Fertilization by Chemicals

The American Journal of Physiology
contains an account of the progress
of Prof. Loebs experiments in artifi.
cial parthenogenesis. He has been
able to develop eggs of chaetopterus.
an annelid or species of worm. into.
free swimming larvae. by placing
them in solutions which caused them
to lose water. Chloride of potassium
solutions and hydrochloric acid, when
added to he sea water, are effective in
causing the eggs to develop. The ar
tifcially developed larvae do not differ
from those produced by natural fertili-
cation, and it was concluded that the
processes of segmentation are a func-
ton of the constitution of sea water.
Observations were also made in the
production of giant embryos by the
fusion of two or more eggs. These
experiments have an important bear
ing on the theory of fertilization and
other phenomena of life.

India is rapidly becoming an impor-
tant factor in the coal market. The
output last year was nearly forty per
cent, and there will be a still further
increase this year. Expectation of
coal from India has already begun. The
coal is found over wide areas, and the
growing shortage in England may be
relieved by the expansion of the min
ing industry in India. The latter coun-
try may become n serious competitor
of the United States in supplying Eng
lands coal rRnuirements.

1t is this condition that DIR. Hartman
calls systemic catarrh. The whole sys-
tenn is saturated with catarrh. Thisdis-
covery marked an important advance in
the history of medical science. The
medical profession had long been CROP
ing to discover the meaning of the stub
born and distressing after-effects of la
grippe. All remedies seemed alike in
adequate.
AS soon as DR.. hartman announced
that it was his belief that the after
effects Of la grippe was simply sys-
temic catarrh, a great advance was made
in the treatment Of these cases. 1t now
only remained to find a reliable remedy
for systemic catarrh.
Here a new difficulty arose. Catarrh
had been regarded by many physicians
as a local disease and treated solely by
local remedies. Such physicians knew
of no systemic remedy for catarrh.
Other erphysiciansr regarded catarrh as
blood disease and had been in the habit
of treating it with blood medicines,
which could be of no possible use in
systemic caearrh.
For a time Peruna enjoyed the dis
tinction of being the only systemic ca
tarrh remedy known. 1t was not even
claimed by anyone that there was an
other remedy for this exasperating con-
dition.
Since then, however, a great many
remedies have been proposed for sys-
temic catarrh, and great deal of val
liable time wasted in experimenting
with other remedies. But it still re-
mains true that Peruna is the only spe-
citic remedy for the after-effeets of la
grippe. The demand for this remedy,
in consequence of the present epidemic
of la grippe, is enormous.
Mr.. P. Lowery, proprietor City Hotel
Albany, Texas, says: Being advised TO
try Peruna for la grippe and asthma, l
did so with good results. L had been
feeling very unwell for long time, and
had asthma quite bad till came West,
when got better of the asthma, butwas
not well. | tried a great many remedies
for IL, but nothing was able 10 cure me.
" took three bottles of Peruna and
am happy to say that IL is the best med
icine | ever used. | am satisfied that
Peruna is a good medicine, and as such
have commended il to several of my
friends with good results. 1t is seldom
give testimonial, but think this due
you / hope others may be benefited
through yOu and your medicines"
Every one should read DIR. Hartman's
latest lecture on Ia grippe. This lecture

THE TEACHERS.
Interesting Discussions on ImpOr-
tant Subjects.
Entertainment Committee Announces
an Excellent Course of
Lectures.

Columbia is entertaining the State
Teachers Institute this week. and will
do so for three weeks yet TO come.
Quite a number of teachers have al
ready arrived, most of whom are from
this county the attendance from the
adjoining counties, as yet, not being
very large, Fresh arrivals, however,
are expected later on.
The Institute was formally opened
Monday, by Prof j. A. Bostick,
of Mt Pleasant, at o'clock. F. J.
Tyler led in prayer DR.. Hazel Pad
gett welcome address in behalf of the
citizens of Columbia was not only full
of eloquence, but was rich and breezy.
The beautiful rays of sunshine and
breezes blowing over the pretty Athe-
naeum lawn made the charming well
come extended by DR.. Padgett more
impressive upon the guests.
Misses Willie and Mary Ashton de-
lighted the audience with several rendi-
tions upon the piano and mandolin.
Capt. r. d. Smith in place of the
vice-President of the Board of Educa-
tion, W. S. Fleming, Esq, who Is con-
fined to his home by sickness) well
public schools, in very entertaining
and instructive address. He paid
high compliment to the chosen pro-
fession of the teacher, and the great
good they were accomplishing, and
could and would yet do. In the name
of the Board of Education of Colum-
bia, he extended the profession a warm
greeting to our town and to our homes,
Miss Mable Wilson, visitor to the
city, recited in very expressive man
ner, The Wages of Sin. "
Miss Ellen Friel was granted the
happy privilege of bidding the teachers
welcome in behalf of the teachers of
Maury county, and no one could have
extended this welcome with more grace
and ease and with prettier thoughts
and happier expressions. Her paper
from beginning to end was full of good
things, and would make good reading
in print. She was warmly applauded
at the close of her graceful welcome.
The conductors of the Institute were
then introduced and made short, appre-
ciative addresses. Each said they were
glad that they were here; they were
glad to be with us, and they trusted
we would not be glad when they were
gone, unless we were glad they, too,
had been here. Mr. London, one of
the conductors, said that Columbia
was one of the best places for an Instl-
tute that he ever saw, and that the
opening here this morning was as
largely attended as any of the best In
stitues he had ever attended He hoped
and expected great things to come out
of this Institute, and that it would
prove to be the best in Tennessee, for,
outside of himself, he said, the best
faculty in the State was here. Mr.
Pages remarks were bright and witty
