EFFECTS OF TOBACCO.
In Some Cases Ii Is stimulating and
In Others Narcotic.

Whether or not tobacco is n stimu-
liant has been n yeXed question ever
since the time of Oviedo, the first
writer to describe it fully, who says
that the Indians of Ifispaniola used to-
bacco to produce insensibility, whereas
others among the old Spanish discov-
erers say that the natives smoked to
stimulate themselves to fresh eXertions.
Men whose business leads to expo
sure to weather or to violent physical
exercise, such as sailors, soldiers,
watchmcn, navvles and field lnborers,
all take tobacco ms n stimulant and
have done so from the first.
These classes are mentioned AS spe-
clally large consumers of the weed in
DR. Evcrard's "Panacea," published In
1869. Hobbies and Newton both used
tobacco to stimulate. Goethe and Heine
hated It, Scott smoked profusely; but,
according TO Mr.. Trclawney. Byron
"never smoked pipe or cigar"
Modern experience and observation
seem to Indicate that tobacco Is slim
ulant in moderation and narcotic In
excess, in this respect resembling all
other intoxlcants. using the term in Its
widest sense, from tea to opium.

CATS CRADLE.

Origin al the Name of the Familiar
string and Finger Game.
Cats cradle has been familiar to most
of us from childhood as IA game for two
players, In which the first winds a
Topped cord over the fingers of both
hands in symmetrical figure, and the
second inserts his fingers and removes
1t in such n way M to produce n diff
fefent figure. This they do alternately
several times, always changing the
formation. The art consists in making
the right changes,
The cord forms II rude representation
of manager, and the name originally
was "cratcl" cradle, cratch being a
mangcr (crcchc, FRENCH, such as that
in which our Saviour was laid. They
layde hym in cratche," was Wyclif's
translation of Luke II, I. The word Is
still used In Roman Catholic countries
In that particular sense.

which stand in the fields for cattle TO

ANIMAL HABITS.
why Horses Have and Donkeys Have
Not the ShyIng Habit.

Horses shy because they are descend
ed from ancestors accustomed to roam
over plains, where any tuft Of grass or
bush might conceal nm enemy waiting
to spring on them. Under these cir
cumstanccs they must often have saved
themselves by ut once starting away on
observing any sudden or unexpected
nloN ement or on coming without warn
ing upon some strange object. This Is
supposed to have become II habit which
has descended to their domcsticatcd
descendants.
The donkey, on the other hand, Is
descended from animals which dwelt
in tie hills, among which there were
preeipices and dangerous paths, hence
the sure footedness and comparative
sloWness of the donkey. His ancestors
were not so liable To sudden attacks Of
wild beasts and of snakes. Moreover,
sudden and wild starts on alarm would
have been positively dangerous to
them Hence they learned to avoid the
very habit which proved SO useful to
the horse In the plains.
The habit of eating thistIes, which
Is almost peculiar to the donkey, is also
supposed TO come from these same an
ccSturs. Living In dry and barren 10
calitics, they found little food and
hence learned to eat hard and dry and.
If necessary, priclly plants.

EARTH LIGHT.
Evidences That Our Planet Possesses
Luminous Quality.

a Luminous Quality.
In proof that the earth does emit
light Humboldt QS09 points to the
aurora borealis. The light produced by
this luminous arch is distinct from
that received from the sun, and its in
tensity slightly exceeds that of the
moons light in her first quarter. At
the poles this glow continues with
scarcely a break. reminding us of the
planet Venus, whose side turned away
from the sun often gives forth feeble
phosphorescent light.
Humboldt goes on to argue that 9th
er planets also may possess n similar
luminous quality, and in our atmos
phere there are other evidences of this
emission of light from the earth itself.
Such We're the famous dry fogs of
1873 and Of 1881, which gave forth light
perceptible at night. and such is that
diffused glimmer which guides our
steps in the nights of autumn and win
ter, when clouds hide the stars and the
earth is not covered with snow.
1t is therefore not entirely true that,
as Sir Norman Lockyer puts it, the
earth cannot give out more light than
cold poker can"
