Everybody who comes to Rome must
expect to be swindled and disappoint-
ed. There are many illusions, and you
will be greatly disappointed when you
approach them and they fade away.
You will be swindled by shopkeepers,
haclSmen, peddlers, and everybody
that you have anything to do with, and
the beggars will annoy you with their
persistence like the fakirs and flower
girls that follow you upon the street,
but all this is part of the experience
of everybody who comes here; only
such annoyances are greater in Rome
than in most other places. Begging is
profession, as in every other Italian
city, and the profits are much larger,
because there are more strangers to
appeal to. None but inexperienced
beggars ever approach native Roman,
because they know it is useless, but
they save all their energy and pathos
for strangers, particularly Americans
and English, whom they follow with
the greatest persistence William r.

To account for the transmissibil-
ity of ancestral types Darwin in his
work on '.Pangenesis" promulgated a
theory that each cell threw off what
are designated ''gemmules," which
formed the nuclei of another series
of cells whose sole destiny in the
economy of nature was the propaga-
tion of its species. These gem
mules formed the blastema. in
which was contained an exceedingly
microscopical impression of the ami
NAL which might ultimately be
called into being. If this were the
case, we should be able to submit
the miniature image to our investiga-
tion by means of the microscope.
But strong microscopes are wanted.
The red corbuscles of human blood
have been measured and the diam
eter is found to be about one-four-
thousandth part of an inch. The
number of these red corpuscles which
would adhere to the point of needle
would not be less than 100000, The

WATERING MILK cows.
where Eight or Ten Animals Are
Kept Construction of a Water
system Is Advisable.

We sometimes water our cows in the
stables, and find it a great gain over
turning them out to drink at the
spring. We never allow our mich
COWS to drink out of brook, as it is
unreasonable to expect COW to do her
best If compelled to gorge herself
with ice, cold water. In the fall and
early winter, when we have only few
of our cows calved, we always like to
take the chill off the water they drink
and give it to them in the stable; we
notice very marked Improvement
over turning them out. Of course,
where there is large herd it would
not pay to water them in the stable
without one had the water right in the
barn. We water twice day, and it is
surprising how much they will drink,
especially if some feed -four is stirred
in it. A cow has no filter in her, and if
the water is impure all the impurities
will go to the milk Some of our sbig"
farmers may cry 'egotist" when they
see this, but am in fair position to
know, as for the last two months ]
have weighed every pound of feed our
cows consumed. Also in the stable the
milk of each COW was weighed sepa-
rately and record kept. From this
we could plainly Sc that the day the
cows were turned out to drink, if let
for any length of time, there was al
ways a shrinkage in the milking. If
the change was noticeable in our
mild December weather, what must
it be when the mercury is lowering
about the cipherl
Where there is winter dairy of
eight or ten cows it would pay to have
good water system, so as to water
our cows in the stable in cold weather.
Also induce them to drink as much as
possible, for when we consider that
milk contains over so per cent of wa
ter, it is evident that our cows should
have lots of good, pure water.-D. R.
Nicholson, in Maritime Farmer.

top have a screen, covered by hinged
doors, and at the top have small
screened ventilator. The doors at
the base can be raised on the side
whence the wind is blowing. This
method will give the current of air
so necessary to milk. On the in
terror, little to one side of the cen
ter, have central revolving beam on
which have some shelves of the old
fashioned kind. Now on the side
where a little standing room was
left, have shelf for the cream jar,
and also large one on which to
set the pan in which to strain the
milk. With this arrangement If one
buys sof the millxman, he can come
in sunshine or in the mud and slush
of winter without entering the house,
and deposit the milk in the ready
pans on the shelf. Moreover, it is the

cess to it by the inside door,. D..

A very curious superstition appears
to be gaining ground in Berlin and
claiming a large number Of support
ers. Three doctors" have established
a reputation for Graduating disease
from men and beasts and driving ii
into trees. The cures are effected at
night ON Tuesdays and Fridays Of the
week of full moon. A needle is stuck
into the skin over the affected part of
the body and remains there until a
few drops of blood appear. The blood
is collected in sheet of paper, and the
paper is rolled in the shape of pill.
The doctor then goes in wood
alone, carrying the pill, selects a tree,
and inoculates the bark with the pill.
The process of blood letting is repeat
ed three times. Health.

You MAY Be IN THE SAME BOAT

The high prices obtained in these times
for many kinds of products and goods
leads to much complaining-som justified
and some unjustified. The unjustif1ed
complaints come from those who are
themselves producers of comm ODDITIES that
are enjoying high prices. The justified
complaints are voiced by those whose in.
comes have not been increased proper
tionately to the increase in the cost of
living.
The other day farmer complained to
local lumber dealer that he was being
robbed by the lumber trust, because he
was called on to pay s14 a thousand for
lumber that he got for SO a thousand five:
years ago. The lumberman very saga
ciously offered to sell the load for SO,
provided the farmer would pay him in
farm produce, making sup the total of SO
at rates prevailing for produce when lum-
Der was 50 thousand. After it had been.
demonstrated to the farmer that, If he
had to payffor his lumber in some kinds
OF produce, on this basis, he would have to
pay more than twice SIC. he conceded that
he was not being robbed, and was, in
deed, only asked a fair price, the changed
conditions considered.

THE UNREST IN RUSSIA

A ST. Petersburg cable reports stu
dents riot in that city in which 10000
persons participated. Students riots are
very frequent in Russia. Those recorded
during the past year have originated in
the revolt of the students against MILL
tary service under compulsion, largely,
and they have generally been the outcome
of resentment because Of interference by
the government with the liberty of read
ing and studying through the whole range
of literature
In Russia the student and intellectual
class has been charged sometimes by the
authorities with nihilism because of the
rioting against the police by groups of
students here and there. Even the gath
ering of a crowd of boys is suspected of
being nihilistic demonstration and men
and women of large intellectually have
through this system of espionage and ac-
tual persecution, been forced into the
ranks of the nihilists. The repressive
pleasures Of the government extend
everywhere and have. in fact, been the
procuring cause of nihilism whose meth
cd is assassination The nihilists are far
fewer in numbers than the merely disaf-

fected. There are some 100000 Russians
out Of the population of 9O,0OO.O 900 to lOo,-
100000 in European Russia who are edu-
Gated sufficiently to feel keenly the
wretched tyrrany which radiates in cruel
tentacles from st. Petersburg. The full
operation ofsthe police system begets the
full pressure Of nihilism. The latter as
soon as the cars stop talking of liberty
and welding the knout con current1y.
The czars have talked sometimes of con-
senting to parliamentary government.
They are not sincere as yet. Some day it
may come. 1t would have come before
which makes for revolution such as
France has. Neither the nihilists, nor
the parliamentary party, If that element
can be called a party, can effect revo-
luton of the form Of government. The
vast aggregation Of peasantry to a great.
extent still have, an idolatrous feeling
toward the white czar and are apparently
satisfied with the small measure of indie
pendence they have in their little
local assemblies Russia moreover, is
very imperfectly developed country. Her
masses are stolid and coarse grained and
they love to hear Of conquests by their

tinually adding territory to the empire;
always preparing for some mysterious
venture. These things keep the people
quiet at home. The intellectual class
cannot stimulate or lead a revoluti ion
they are under the surveillance Of the
police. ..
A Russian revolution can come through
the army. But the army Is apparently
loyal to the car and the bureaucracy
There is at present no Caesar or Napoleon

The English financial world was greatly
encouraged by the recent report of the
johannesburg Chamber of Mines, which
showed the output of gold in February to
have been S1,4o5 ounces. In January the
production was 70,94O ounces, and in De-
cember last 52,s97 ounces The February
figures are the largest shown since the
war began. In the facts that the railway
lines between the mines and the export
points are Comparatively secure, that la
borers may now return with some assur-
ance of safety, and that the gold produc-
ton shows steady increase, there is found
basis for satisfaction, even though the
Beers still hold much of the outlying ter
rltory and the war Is far from being over.
