a note by II. Henri Coupin in the
Academic des Sciences deals with the
sensibility of the higher plants to very
small quantities OF toxic substances In

in the almost inhnitesimal quantity OF
such substances needed to cause seri-
Gus disturbances in the health of the
plant organism. The most deadly sub
stance discovered by NJ. Coupin was
sulphate Of copper OF which only
one undredth-millionth of its
weight in water was sufficient to react
upon plants disastrously. The fore

to plants, are altogether too small to

Some Interesting facts concerning the
comparative number OF particles OF
dust and bacteria in the air were COM
municated to the Royal Institution re-
Gently by DR.. Allan Macfadyen. Using
Athens dustcounter. he found in an
open suburb of London 10000 dust
particles in every cubic centimeter Of
air. while in the heart of the great
town the number Of particles. in the
same volume OF air, was 100000. In
the open air OF London there was, on
the average, only one cro-organism
to every 3s,3O0.OOO particles of dust,
and in the air OF a room amongst 1884,
100000 dust particles only one organ
ism could be detected. These facts,
Doctor Macfadyen said, illustrate the
poverty of the air in heterogeneous
even when II is very dusty. Their
continued existence is rendered diff
cult through the influence of desicca-
zion and sunlight. Drying up is one
of natures favorite methods of getting
rid OF bacteria

The sea has flowers as the land has.
but the most brilliant of the sea flow
ers bloom not upon plants but upon
animals. The living corals of tropi-
cal seas present a display of floral
beauty which in richness and vivid
ness of color and variety and grace
Of form rivals the splendor of a gar
den of flowers. The resemblance to
vegetal blossoms is so complete that
some persons find it difficult to believe
that the brilliant display contains no
element of plant life. but is wholly
animal in its organization. Among
the sea animals which bloom as If
they were plants are included. besides
corals, the sea anemone and the sea
cucumber.

In the last issue of this paper we
called attention to the extreme meas
ures used in roofing" The item
seemed to have little or no effect on
the bowlers, for instead of calming
them down there was more noise in
evidence than at any previous game.
Some of the bowlers carried it SO far
as to reach their hand over the alley
when the bowler was about TO deliver
the ball. If an umpire were selected
who is thoroughly acquainted with the
rules he would Immediately stop any
interference with the bowlers. The
following is part of the rule governing
this point: IF any player is inter
fered with by spectator or any other
bowler, the umpire shall Immediately
declare such ball dead" and allow the
player to roll'again. after replacing the
pins as they were before such ball was
rolled.' This is point the captain OF
OF each team should insist on being
enforced
The Dubuque Bowling team met de-
feat at Rockford Ill. last Friday in the
third series of contest games bowled
between these two cities. Rockford
captured two out of the three series of
seven games each. Rockford rolled
6023 pins in the seven games while
Dubuque rolled $685.. This makes an
average of $50 pins per game for Rock
ford and 841 pins for DUBUQUE. This
is exceptional good Bowling and is
seldom beaten in any Big Leagues in
in the same number of games
During the month OF November
Chicago big league consisting of eight
teams, rolled seventeen games over the
