Life on Other Planets.
Prof. Maunder In knowledge

Upon the question whether life-bearing
planets can exist in other solar systems
than our own the answer of science is clear
and distinct. 1t is precisely the same which
Prof. Newcsmb recently gave concerning
the possible inhabitants Of Mars The
reader knows just much of the subject as
I do. and that is nothing at ALL" Within
our solar system we can indeed form some
crude estimate Of probabilities; beyond it,
nothing. All the amazing progress Of mod
ern science. all the revelations made by the
spectroscope or by photography. all the ad-
vance In biology have not brought us one
step nearer an answer to the question, as
this the only inhabited worid?" We stand
essentially where Whewell and Brewster
did half century ago, or We might indeed
say where Calico and Capoano were three
hundred years ago. We can indeed amir Out
the discussion at greater length than our
predecessors, and can Introduce far larger
number Of more or less Irrelevant facts. but
of serious argument, either for or against
we are entirely destitute.

Antiseptics Used With Food.
ndon Telegraph

From the London ItleBrdPH'
A matter of practical science to which
legislation must be directed much more
seriously than has yet been done was
brought before the congress of medicine
recently held at Madrid. DR.. Brouafdei of
Paris spoke strongly of the dangers arising
from the addition Of antiseptics to wine
beer cider milk sirups, butter fish. pre-
served fruits and other commodities which
are in daily use as food 1t is well known
that saiicylio acid, salicylate of soda, sui
pilates. borax, boric acid, formalin and "a
variety of other chemicals are, employed
to make the substances in question keep;
the pretense being that they are used in
such small quantities as to be innocuouss,
To this allegation DR.. Brouardel opposed
two indisputable facts. determined by an.
alysis and experience. First. that the
preservatives employed are used in far
larger quantities than the users admit, and.
second, that the continued consumption of
alimentary substances containing these an,
tiseptic materials, even in Very small pro-
portions, becomes grayeiy detrimental to
the human organism, amounting in the
long run to slow poisoning. Mans consti-.
tuition has not been made for the daily
elimination of minute doses of poison. In
this lnsidious form of mischief may lie
some OF the blame for our physical degen.
eracy. Apparently the evil is of such sort
that international measures may be neces.
sary to check It. Treatment of food in this
manner should not be called adalterat.on
but poisoning pure and simple
