BLooD-PorsoNING.

In the widest acceptation or the
term, blood-poisoning occurs In all IN
fectious diseases, in Bright's dlsease'
biliousness, malaria, and any otner
trouble affecting the general system.
But, as usually understood, it means
poisoning by pus microbes or their
products, conditions medically known
as pyaemia or septicaemia.
A quarter of a century ago these
diseases were very common, especially
in hospitals, and were often the cause
of frightful mortality among the
wounded in battle; but now they are
becoming more and more rare, and
many physicians of several years
practice have never seen a well-mark-
ed case.
This happy change is the result OF
the general adoption Of the principles
of antiseptic surgery, whereby septic
infection of wounds and consequent
extensive suppuration are prevented.
But blood-poisoning still occurs at
times after wounds made with infected
objects, or wounds which have been
allowed to tester without proper treat
ment.
Physicians occasionally get blood
poisoning in consequence of a slight
cut or scratch received while perform
ing an autopsy after a case of appen-
dicitis or other suppurative disease. In
cases in which death follows an OPP
Grafton for appendicitis the is
frequently septicaemia or pyaemia, the
operation having been undertaken too
late to prevent the absorption OF sep
tic material.
The symptoms of blood poisoning
are those of profound depression of the
general system, but the symptoms OF
the two varieties of blood-poisoning
differ more or less.
Septicaema usually begins abruptly
with a chill and high fever. The pulse
is quick and weak, the breathing is
rapid and sometimes oppressed, head
ache is usually severe, the appetite Is
lost, and there is much nausea with
vomiting.
In pyaemia these symptoms are
more gradual in their appearance, and
are preceded for a day or two by slight
fever, loss of appetite and general de-
preston. There is a succession Of
chills, high fever and sweating, so that
the case is sometimes taken for ma
laria. Later all doubt is removed By
the formation of assesses on various
parts of the body.
Both forms of blood-poisioning ar
grave, but recovery is more apt to TAX
place in septicaemia. Treatment con
sists primarily in attention to tn
wound through which infection ha
occurred, which, if accessible, SHOULD
be opened freely and thoroughly drain
ed. At the same time the system mus
be supported by stimulants, heart ton
les, and no%urishing and easily digeste'
food.

AN UNNAMED MONSTER.

The Field Columbian Museum in
Chicago possesses some of the bones
of a gigantic %dinosaur, which appar-
emily exceeded in size the famous at
lantosaurus, heretofore regarded as the
largest land animal known ever to
have inhabited the earth. Professor
Marsh thought that the atlantosaurus
might have attained a length of eighty
feet, and have been more than thirty
feet in height. The as yet unnamed
monster whose bones have recently
been measured in Chicago, and which,
like the atlantosaurus, dwelt in the
Rocky Mountain region, had a thigh
bone six feet and eight inches in
length. The bone of it's upper arm,
the humerus, is ven larger than the
thigh-bone, exceeding by twenty-three
inches the largest humerus hitherto
known to science. Prof. Elmer S. Riggs
remarks that the extraordinary length
of the humerus suggests that the ami
NAL had something giraffe-like in it's
proportions. In that case, it's height
must have been truly gigantic.

Gone were the days of her training,
her struggle in grim New York; van
ished the Paris life where her voice

the tours in small Italian towns TO test

her work. Gone, gone, nothing left,
nothing worth while save the spring
mornings in front of an old wooden
house in a grove, the odor of lilacs, the
calls of birds answering her own clear
notes, mild and sweet beyond belief.
No one knew-for she vas eve re-

knew that tonight she sang before her

A Substitute for Wool.

Artificial wool made from turf fbers
is now employed at Dusseldorf, Ger
many, for manufacturing cloth, band
ages, hats, rugs, and so forth. Ten
years have elapsed since the first at
tempts to make turf wool, and it is
averred that recent improvements in
the processes have resulted in the pro-
duction of a soft ibrous material,
which can be spun as readily as sleeps
wool, and which, besides possessing
excellent absorbent properties, is cap
able of being hleached and colored for
use in various textile industries.

1t is averred that the destruction of
birds in France has produced disas-

culture and the grape industry. In
the Department of Herault alone, it
has been calculated, the destruction Of
birds accustomed to feed upon insects
costs a loss of more than 1000 gallons

The maid tied the last knot Of rib

Contrary to custom they were a quar-

Milly Ellis, on the programs Miss
Millicent Devereaux, laughed a little
sarcastically.

strange land. Run out the call boy
anybody-there is yet time. There
should be a florist near"
"And the flowers, madame, what
shall they be-"
A seconds thought, then a rush OF
memory. For the sake of the past,
Milly Ellis said, hastily:
"Lilacs-white or purple. There will
be plenty this time of the year. See'
they will suit my gown!"
The maid snatched a cloak from the
wall.
81 will go myself, l will not trust a.
youth. 1t is a matter of taste"
Then Miss Devereaux went up the
steps that led to the green room and
to the stage in front. She wished to
see the audience before the play be-
gan. She walked slowly and haughtlly
through the laughing, impatient throng
of chorus girls and villagers and TOOK
refuge in the wings until she saw an
opening in the curtains through which
she could look. There was a sea OF
faces, a great audience, but nowhere
one familiar face, although Milly Ellis
had been born and grew up in this
great city and now returned to IT, the
star of an opera troupe.
The bran new chandelier of electric
lights threw it's beams over the clean
paint and gay draperies of the sum
mer theater. There were rows upon
rows of heads and faces, but nothing
familiar to respond to the fond long
ing in her heart.
A voice sounded beside her.
"a great audience-a real triumph
and you are quit&at your best to-
night, Miss Devereaux."
Beside her, bowling low enough, was
the new tenor.
Surely a success-but perhaps Miss
Devereaux will accept the flowers she
can SO we'll carry in the ballroom

He held a splendid armful of hot
house roses, red and glowing. Miss

she sang there were those tears in her
voice that she dared not shed, the
tears of the heart for the days that
were gone.
A girl again in her simple gauze
gown and hanging hair, she carried
away her audience because she seemed
one with them. In the ballroom scene
she was alien to the time and place.
They resented the attitude, the hour,
the glowing crimson roses. Breath1ess-
" they watched the mimic escape as a
gypsy girl longing for her home, JOY
ously saw her return to her wildwood
haunts and her lover. Then the audi
ence rose in applause, and the hour of
a great triumph had truly come to
Milly Ellis.
Her heart swelled when she went,
with her jubilant manager, before the
curtains. She longed to cry out:
Il am little Milly Ellis, who was bocn
and brought up here, obscure enough
among you-and ow-no 1 have
conquered you ALL"
But ever in that hour there was to
be something beside. AS she bowed
and smiled, speechless in her deep
| emotion, a slender tongue OF fame
leaped from above in one of the wings,
and caught a swaying gilded banneret.
And, in the next second, hoarse cries
of "Fire!" were here and there and
wild screams of terror. In a breath the
woman was forgotten in the fear Of
death.
The manager few from her side to
the rear, commanding. half mad with
this sudden change of fortune. But the
fire leapt, like a thing of life, from one
fimsy ornament and drapery to an
other and the opening doors famed the
flames.
In that moment when the manager
left her alone, Milly Ellis stood sud-
denly stripped of all she had held most
dear, stood alone and saw a mad fight
for life begin. Where now was the
,dashing tenor whose burning eyes had
so lately pursued her own? Where now
the tickle admirers of the past and
present? She stood alone and the fire
demon ran above her and dropped
down upon her gauze draperies, burn
ing gegaws which had glittered and
shone but a moment before. She in
vited destruction, she stood alone.
In that desperate moment, a deep
voice said:
Come with meat oncei"
A heavy wrapping, the curtain of n
of the boxes, was twined about her.
She was fairly whirled off her feet by
the impetuosity of a race across the
stage and a plunge and jump into the
orchestra box. Half dragged, half run
ming, the singer was urged on until she
stood in the alleyway back of the the
alter, and knew she was safe.
But it was dark and she heard the
rattle of the engines coming. Holding
to her ~rescuer's arm, they a to a
side street and at last sank down on
the stone steps of a church. AS they
lay there painting the very heavens lit
up. The theater was doomed.
In the lurid light Milly Ellis looked
at her rescuer. He was tall and broad
and she knew his strength. AS he sat
still, breathing heavily, memory strug-
gIed within her to formulate a name, a
remembrance. She leaned forward and
when the heavy drapery fell away, she
smelled the white lilacs.

Thousands of beautiful rosy stars
Came tumbling uown from the sky,
And dear Dame June she gathered them

In a clustering family.
The sun fell hot, and the world was

To the little frightened things,
Until August came to enfold them
With a pair of sheltering wings.
You will shine again with brighter rays,
Sweet wanderers from the skies;

In a wonderful surprise.

To unlock a mi1kweed pod,

To Preserve the Color of
An interesting suggestion for the
preservation of colors of pressed flow
ers comes from the workrooms of the
New York Botanical Garden. After the
specimens have been under pressure a
day or two, lay them in papers heated
in the sun until the drying is complete.
In this way, it is said, colors are pre-
served better than by any other
process.

Capt. William Moody of Baltimore
believes there are strange imps in the
sea, because he caught n recently
while fishing off Cape Charles light
ship. Capt. Moody is commander of
the lightship, and it is his habit to
keep a baited hook, attached to an ex-
tremely long line in the water at all
times. Occasionally this persistency
is rewarded with cod or other tooth
some fish of deep water. The captain
happened to be near the line when the
Gimp" fish was hooked. He started to
pull it in, and then ensued as pretty
a battle as ever warmed the heart of
fisherman. Several times the creature
was brought to the surface, and on n
occasion it leaped ten feet in the air.
After a battle lasting fully an hour the
monster was h%arpooned and pulled on
deck. The fish weighed about eighty
pounds. The limp" has wings, which
are OF the thickness of sailcloth, and

varying from two, in the back part of

HISTORIC E

Washington Has Many That Were
Planted by Famous Americans.
1t was the custom of the late Charles
A. Dana to visit this city occasionally,
writes a Washington correspondent Of
the New York Times, and to spend the
entire day that he gave to sight-see-
ing in looking over the trees Of the
city with William R. Smith, in charge
of the botanical gardens. Mr.. Dana
said of Mr.. Smith that he knew more
about trees than any half-dozen men
Of Mr.. Dana's acquaintance. MI. Smith
has in his gardens a number of his
torically interesting trees. There is a
Kentucky oak grown from an acorn
planted by John J. C~rittenden, and a
story goes with this information about
the intimacy that existed between
Crittenden, Robert Mallory and John
A. Bingham of Ohio. Not far from
the elm grown from n planted by
George Washington at the time he laid
the cornerstone of the capitol. Work
men killed the tree while e~xcavating
for the architectural terrace at the
west front. Mr.. Smith propagated the
new elm from the old roots, and the
new tree was planted where it is by
Senator James B. Beck of Kentucky.
While Jefferson Davis was secretary
of war his wife gave Mr.. Smith some
seed of the Monterey cypress, from
which was produced a fine specimen
near the end of the greenhouse. Two
specimens of the bald variety of cyp-
ress are named "Forney" and "For-
rest" one planted by John w. Forney,
an editor, and the other by Edwin For
rest, the actor, IS years ago. A Chin
csc tree was grown from seed obtained
at the grave of C~onfucius, and was pre-
scented to the garden by Charles A.
Dana and planted by Representative
Amos J. Cummings fifteen years ago.
Among other we'll known tree planters
who have left their names are Thad-.
deus Stevens, the late Senator Bayard,
who planted an English oak; Proctor
Knott, Daniel w. Voorhees,, J. S. G.
Blackburn, Lot M. Morrill, and Justin
S. Morrill,, who planted winged elms
thirty years ago; Senator Hoar and
Senator Evarts, and some more recent
arrivals in Washington. There is a
Carolina poplar that is interesting as
the parent of $1,000 other poplars, liv-
ing in many states of the Union.
