Wonders of Plants mid Flowers.
Most of the floworg sleep during the
night. The marigold goes to bod
with the sun. Many plants are so sen
sitive that their leaves close during the
passage of a cloud. The dandelion opens
at five or six in the morning, and shuts
at nine in the evening, the daisy opens
its day's eye to meet the early beams of
the morning sun. The ivy-leaved let
tuce opens at eight in the morning and
closes forever at four in the afternoon.
The night-flowering cereus turns night
intoday. It begins to expand its magni
cent Bweet-scented blossoms in the
twilight, it is in full bloom at midnight,
and closes forever at the dawn of clajr.
In a clover field not a leaf is open until
ifter sunrise. There are some plants
(hut niny be used as weather prophets.
1'ha pimpernel spreads its leaves nt the
end of wet weather, while the different
species of clover contract theirs. If the
chickweed droops and its flowers ave not
open, there is rain in prospect. The
crowfoot anemone foretells the coming
of rain by closing its blossoms ; the ane
mone montaisft carries its flowers erect
when the weather is fine, and drooping
when overcast. It will rain if the whit
low grass lets its leaves hang drooping,
if the gallium verura swells and exhales
strongly, also if the birch scents the air.
The sensitiveness of plants to light,
heat and moisture was made by Linnreus,
the great botanist, tho basis of many
experiments and observations, resulting
in tho arrangement called his " floral
dork " It is a curious fact that there
are twenty-four varieties of plants whose
blossoms "open sucessively at tho differ
cut hours of day and night. The flow
ers of the water lily close and sink into
. the water precisely at sunset, rise ngain
to the surface and expand with sunrise.
Pliny described the lotus of the Eu
phrates, which followed the same order;
and tho reverence which was paid to
the lotus by the Egyptians is supposed
by some to be from this association witli
the sacred sun. Flowers and fruits of
the lotus are engraved on Eastern tombs
and monuments, and ndointho heads of
their sculptured deities. Besides the
" floral clock," there is a floral calendar,
in which each month is marked by its
own loyai flower.
It is well known that plants sleep at
night; but their hours of sleeping nro a
matter of habit, and may be disturbed
artitiei-illy, just as a cock may be waked
up to crow at an untimely hour by the
light of a lantern. A French chemist
subjected a sensitive plant to an exceed
ingly trying course or discipline, by com-J
piotely changing its Hours, exposing it
to a brizht light at night, and putting it
in a dark room during the day. The
plant appeared to lie much puzzled at
first. It opened and closed its leaves ir
regularly, sometimes nodding in spite of
the artificial sun that sited its beams at
midnight, and sometimes waking up,
f rom force of habit, to find the chamber
dark in spite of the time of day. Such
are the trammels of use and wont. But,
after an obvious struggle, the plant sub
mitted to the change, and accepted the
night for the day without any apparent
ill effects.
We notice that nn Italian chemist has
recently made some experiments which
have resulted in the discovery that vege
table perfumes exercise a positively
healthful influence upon the atmosphere
by converting its oxygen into ozone, acd
thus increasing its oxidizing influences.
The essences found to develop the largest
quantity of ozone are those oftlie cherry,
laurel, clover, lavender, mint, juniper,
lemon, fennel and bergamot : those that
give smaller quantities are anise, nut
meg and thyme. Flowers destitute of
perfume do not develop ozone, and those
which have but slight perfume develop
it only in small quantities. Reasoning
from these facts, tho professor recom
mends the cultivation of flowers in
marshy districts and in all places in
fested with animal emanations, on ac
count of the powerful oxidizing influ
ence of ozone. The inhabitants of such
regions should, he says, surround their
houses with beds of the most odorous
flowers. There is a mystery about per
fume. It eludes the most subtle analy
sis. So tine, so subtle, so imponderable,
it lias eluded our most delicate measures
and our strongest lenses. If we could
come to the essence of each odor we
would make nn enormous stride in hy
giene and in chemistry, and no profession
would profit so much by it as the medi
cal profession if it could be conclusively
demonstrated that such an odor pro
ceeded from such and such a cause, us
we already knowot sulphur, sulphurato
hydrogen, ammonia, and 'he like. u

Walking on Sunday
It is so-newhat unusual to find a court
of law ngaged in determining whether
wniKiug in wiu uurn air on ounuay lor
exercise is illegal. This question, how
ever, arose in a recently reported case
which was argued in the (Supreme-
j'urt 01 tne aiavo 01 Maine. The plain
tiff brought an action against the city of
rortiana lor a.-im.igc sustained by luni
owing to the defective state of the high
way. He was in charge of the city water
works, and, wishing to vary the mono
tony of his employment, went for a two
hours' walk tor recreation one (Sunday
afternoon. This was in the winter.
After setting out he called at an inn and
drank a glass of ale. Then he resumed
las walk, but before returning slioned
upon a quantity of ice which lay on a
much lrequentett sidewalk, and brok
one of the bones of his right leg. A
statute in force in the State of Maine
prohibits "traveling on the Lord's
Day." The defendants made a point of
tins, ana UKewise urged that it was il
legal to walk on Sunday for the purpose
01 purchasing and drinking ale. Ho sucli
purpose, however, was proved. The
judge at the trial told the jury that
walking on Sunday for recreation was
not illegal, and that although the step
ping aside for the ale under the circum
stames miglit be illegal, yet if the act
did not contribute to produce the dam
age, it would not prevent a verdict for
the plaintiff. The iurv neeordinirlv
foun-' for the plaintiff : whereupon the
defendants took exception to the rulinur
and appealed. The Supreme Court, af
firming the proposition that walking on
Sunday for exercise in the open air was
not illegal, distinguishing between
walking on Sunday for the purpose of
buying ale, which would be illegal, and
cases where the intention at starting
was merely to obtain exercise and re
creation. In the latter case a person
who drank a glass of ale and then re
sumed his walk, and therein suffered
damage from a defective highway, was
not, by the laws in force in Maine, pre
vented from recovering for the damage
unless he contributed to it. The appeal
was consequently dismissed.

Through a Trap Door What linn
i . pencil.
The proprietor of a store on .Tr.nVrs.oti
avenue was yesterday looking out upon
the rain-bodriss'.led streets and figuring
that ho wouldn't make a cent during the
whole altornoon, when a linrd-up look
ing stranger, wet to the hide, walked
softly in and took a sent In a chair,
Anything to-day P" asked the mer
chant. The answer was a lonesomo shnko of
the head.
" Bad weather to-day."
Another weary shake replied.
After five minutes of silence, tho
stranger got up and began walking the
store. The trap door leading to the
basement was up, and in one of his
turns he went down out of sight like a
bag of shot. The merchant called out
when it was too late and he ran to the
trap and peered down the dark stall's
with the expectation of seeing a corpse
on the cellar bottom. Instead of that
the strange man appeared on the stairs
and ascended without help. He was
covered witli dust from head to foot and
his coat split up the back, and the mer
chant hastened to say :
"I am very sorry, indeed. I forgot
the trap are you much hurtP"
' My friend," replied the stranger, as
he turned around and extended his hand,
"you have been the means of savingme!
Shake hands with me!"
The merchant thought tho fall had
made a lunatic, but he shook, and the
man went on : ' Five minutes ago I was
desperate. I had about made up my
mind to murder some one and then jump
into the river. That fall lias given mo
new and better ideas. From this hour
I am a new man, withn better life he
fore me! Shake again!"
" Ah yes very strange," stammered
tho merchant as he shook, and the
stranger said as lie stood in the door :
" I thank you from the bottom of my
heart for leaving that trap open! Wife
and children shall bless your name, and
I can never forget you! Good-bye, sir
ton thousand blessings Heaven keep
you in its care!"
The merchant puzzled over the case
for a long time and then went down
cellar and found evidences that tho
stranger had coolly jumoed down there,
rolled in the dust, and curing" the brief
moment secured about his person four
dozen pocket-knives and a package of
gloves. Then there was another
" shake." Petrol Free Press.

Immediately after the noon repast a
very young lad petitioned his mother to
allow liim to spend the afternoon, till
four o'clock, with his playmate around
the corner. Tho mother said he might
go to bring back a top he had left there,
but that lie must return immediately.
This led the urchin to reflect and re
mark: "I don't think I can find the top
before four o'clock."
A Female Gambler's Fate.
Educated, pretty and fashionably
dressed women were not common in Ne
vada City, Cal in 1854. Therefore the
arrival of Madam Dumont in that min
ing town caused considerable excite
ment, for." she was attractive in the
three mentioned particulars. Besides,
she was not more than twenty years
old. She at once hired a corner in a
large saloon and opened a faro game.
Tho novelty of a woman dealing the
cards drew many gamblers to her table,
and her success was so great that she
soon opened a large establishment,
where a dozen games were kept going
night and day. She gained the reputa
tion of dealing honestly, was always
smilingly polite, and the miners liked
hor even held her in considerable re
spect. But her luck changed at last
from good to bad, and she lost all h-r
money. She spent a few years in other
business in San Francisco, but could not
recover into prosperity- A few weeks
ago she borrowed $500 from an old
friend and started for the mining region
of Nevada, contemplating a new career
as a gambler. She opened a faro game
at Boodie, but it lasted only a few hours,
when the bank was broken. She pa d
her losses in theold smiling manner, re
tired to an ante-room, swallowed poison,
and died.
A Cooking Contest at a Fair.
Miss Corson, the scientific cook, having
passed through Ohio some months ago,
the young women of Hamilton county,
in that State, got an idea that it would
bo awfully nice to have a cooking con
test at the county fair. So a space in
the grounds was inclosed by means of a
rope, and in the midst of a thousand
spectators, who pressed the lin"8 from
every point of the compass, Mbs Mary
Leehy, of Wyoming, rolled up her sleeves
and pitched in. The judges (ladies, of
course) pulled out their watches at the
moment when the water began to boil
in the kettle, 12.43 p. m., and sixty-five
minutes later six persons sat down to a
royal dinner prepared by Miss Mary's
hand. At the same hour the next day
Miss Mary's contestant, Miss Phoebe
Hill, tried her hand, and in exactly fiftv-
four minutes rane for the feast. The
judges awarded the prize, an improved
ana tne most valuable stove made, to
Miss Leehy, because Miss Phoebe's din
ner, though ready eleven minutes earlier,
was inferior in quality.
A Married Pair who Never Scold.
An ex-mayor of St. Louis asked his
wife to sitra a conveyance of some nron-
erty that he desired to sell, and she sur
prised and angered him by refusing. He
swore that, unless she complied, he
would never speak to her again, and she
was still obdurate. That was sixteen
years ago, and although they had been
a loving couple, and have since lived in
the same house, thev have never ex
changed a word directly. They roomed
apart, but sat at the same table, and
were never guilty ot any disrespect to
ward each other, save that of silence.
When circumstances made communica
tion between them absolutely necessary,
they respectively addressed their daugh
ter, and she spoke for both. Their
?uestions, so put, were always framed
n the third person. ..The daughter died
a short time ago, but the parents are said
to still decline to become reconciled.

An Angry Congressman.
There Is now no doubt as to how Con.
gressuian Daggett stands on the rallrond
question. Conversing with a Virglni
City (Nev.) Chnmirh reporter the oilier
dny, lie saiil :
"The railroad people are tho prct lest
kind of gongera. They begin to phow
their hand nt Omaha. In the first place
tho faro from Omaha to San Francisco is
ono hundred dollais and fifty rents, and
everybody who buys a ticket stops to
growl and ask what, that fifty cents Is
for. They are told that that half dollar
Is simply tho profit made on each pas
senger. I guess tho hundred dollars
conio nearer the profit than the half dol
lar. " Then they grab your trunk and shove
it behind a grat ing to be weighed. You
can't see the scales at all, and you have
no idea about the weight until a man
sings out, ' eight dollars and thirty cents
over-weight,' and you have to pungln
tho money or your trunk don't go. Now
my trunk was so small an affair that I
could throw it over my shoulder with
one hand, but they ran up tho weight to
2(i0 pounds. Probably it did weigh that
much when a 200-pound baggage -master
was sitting c.n it.
"Well, I paid, because I hadn't but
two minutes to ligjit; and nt Ogilen the
baggage villain still pursued mo, nnd I
paid some more extra weight. It weighed
more at Ogdon, probably because a
heavier ninn sat on it, or else the rari
fied atmosphere affected the scales. Then
coming over tho mountain there was
some extra charges for ropes. But I'll
get even I'll get even.
" You see I am entitled, as a member
of Congress, to six hundred volumes of
Agricultural reports, two hundred Surveyor-General's
reports, live hundred
Patent Ollico reports, and several
thousand other heavy volumes of equally
exciting character."
Reporter: Are these reports ever
read ?
Mr. Daggett, M. C: Oh, yes; the
printers who set cm up are obliged to
rend them. Well, these are sent on to
my address free, and the railroad people
have to carry 'em for nothing, under
their postal contract with the United
States government the biggest govern
ment on the earth, sir. Then I'll give
one cory of the agricultural romance to
Farmer Treadway, and a copy of the
geological fictions to Professor Stewart.
All the rest I need myself.
Reporter: For what purpose?
Mr. Daggett, M. C. : Why, you see,
I'll put my frank on 'em and ship 'em
to Zach Chand'er, in Wisconsin, and
he'll frank 'em and send 'em back, and
I'll frank 'em again and redirect 'em to
him; and those books two tons oi 'em,
by Jove will go back nnd forth over
that blasted road free until the next ses
sion of Congress, when I'll get hold of
some more and start theoi along, too.
I propose to keep the Rooks in motion
until they wear out, and then I'll suetho
company for damages. Oh. I'll sicken
'em of the extra weight dodge! Don't
you forget it.
Electric Lights.
Introduction of the electric light is be
eomina so general in Paris that it now
attracts very little attention. The pro
prietors ot hotels, restaurants, theaters,
and even stores, are erecting tlectric
candles in front of their establishments,
nnd there are quite a number on the
steps and around the Madeleine. All
the public gardens and squares have a
dozen or more lights, and the Place
l'Opera literally blazes with them, mak
ing the gas jets look like farthing can
dles. The Arch of Triumph his twenty
electric candles around it, and whore
ever it was introduced by the authori
ties to add brilliancy to the great illumi
nation it remains as a permanent illumi
nating process. In nearly all the great
central places of Paris electricity is grad
ually superseding gas, and wherever it
is extensively used the gaslights nro ex
tinguished. Whether it will ever bo used
for indoor lighting is very doubtful, as
it is too glaring a light when very close
to it; it ii shaded out of doors with
large and heavy frosted shades. For
railroad stations and all central public
places it is superseding gas, but it re
quires motive power near at hand to the
candles to keep up a steady current of
electricity.
A Shocking Crime.
While the world steadily grows better,
crimes are still committed which shock
the dullest sense and belie humanity.
Nothing is so good or so bad in the past
that it may not and does not happen
again and again. An example of this is
furnished by a most revolting murder of
one brother by another, near Pcurgia,
Italy. Toniaso Longari, having quar
reled with his brother Sebastiano, stole
up behind hint as he was coming from
mass, in a retired spot, felled him with
an axe and then beheaded him. He
next cut him deliberately to pieces, re
moving the heart, lungs, liver and other
organs, finally fried the viscera and gave
them to his wife and children for dinner,
pretending that they were meat he had
bought of a butcher. They ate the
dreadful meal, never suspecting the
truth. Afterward, suspected and ar
rested, he acknowledged the murder
with perfect composure, and said lie
would gladly repeat it if he had an op
portunity. An attentive little son, who had heard
a recipe for moving ink stains from cai
pets read aloud, asked his mother the
next day, " Mamma, have you any
milk?" "Yes, my dear: do you want
someP" " I want just a little, mamma,
to put on the floor. I poured your ink
on the carpet so's to try if the milk
would take out tho stain." The milk
was brought forth, but recipes aro no
longer read aloud in that family until
fter the little folks have retired for the
night. Rome Sentinel.

a slave to Wakamt-lkla, th. nivdiclnn man of tho
C.imanches, is now prv parod to lend hi. aid in the
introduction of the wonderful remedy of that tribe.
The experience of Mr. Eastman bclne similar to
that of Mrs. Clin.. Joneannd son, of Washington
Co., Iowa, an scconnt of who-e ufrrinir wer.

hero. They are, however, published in a neat Tol
nme of 300 pf?oa, eutitlod, "Seven nnd Nino Years
Among the Comancbes and Apaches," of which
mention will bo mado hereafter. Suffice it to say,
that for several years, Mr. Eastman, while a enp
tlve, was compelled to gather the roots, gums,
barks, herbs and berries of which Wakametkla's
medicin. was made, and is still prepared to pro
Tide the Sana materials for the successful intro
duction of the medicine to the world; nnd assures
Hie public that the remedy is the same row as
when Wakamotkla compelled him to Biako it.

It neutralizes the hereditary taint, or poison in

There are no spirits employed in its iniinufiicture,
