CHENEY & CO., Toledo, O. SkafSold by Druggists at 75c The Mystery of Inheritance. The body of an individual animal or plant is to be regarded, from the point of view of heredity, as consisting of two distinct elements. These are germ cells end body cells, the former devoted to the important work of reproducing the rare, the latter constituting the actual bodily material, and discharging all the ordina ry functions through which the individ ual lifs is maintained. Inheritance is a matter of the continuity of the germ plasm or germ cells, which are handed down from one generation to another in cumulative ratio, carrying with them in each case not the feature and qualities of the one predecessor and parent, but of ell preceding generations. Assuming that the germ plasm is lia ble to exhibit variations, we can see how end why such variations can be trans mitted to new generations : but we have els to take into account the influence on the germ cells of the body to which they belong. While, then, inheritance pre serves through the continuity of the germ cells the stability af the race, it gives the rein to variation, and by the combined influences of environment act ing on the body of the individual peoples the world with new and ever varying forms of life.

In bis article on the frightful cyclones which visit the Bay of Bengal w ith sur prising frequency, Mr. Elliott, meteoro logical reporter to the government of Bengal, incidentally gives some curious figures to illustrate the cyclonic forces developed by such storms. The average daily evaporation registered by the Ben galees instruments ie two inches. The amount of heat absorbed by the conver sion of this amount of water daily over eo large an area as the Bay of Bengal must necessarily be enermous. "Rough ly .estimated," says Mr. Elliott, "it is equal to the continuous working power of 300,000 steam engines of 1,000 horse power each." A simple calculation w ill show what it suffices to raise aloft over 45,000 cubic feet of water every twenty four hours from every square mile of the bosom of the bay and transport it to the clouds above. When we extend the cal culation from a single square mile to the area of the whole Indian gulf, the mind ia lost in its efforts to conceive the force which, in a day's time, can lift 50,000,000 tons I St. Louis RspuUic The Doctor and Posmasier.

"What's your name, Bub, asked a mis chievous looking young man sitting be sides him. Robert Cullen Deems," be answered politely. "Where are you going 7 To my grandma's.' "Let me see that note in your pocket." The look of innocent surprise in the round face ought to have shamed the baby's tormentor, but he only said again "Let me see it." I tant," said Robert Cullen Deems. See here, if yon don't 111 scare the i hoses and make them run away." The little boy cast an apprehensive look at the belled horses, but shook his head. "Here, Bub, I'll give yon this peach if you pull that note half way out of your pocket." The boy did not reply, but some of the older people looked angry. I say, chum, I'll give yon this whole bag of peaches if you will just show me J the corner of your note," said the tempter. The child turned away, as if he did not wish to hear any more, but the young man opened the bag and held it out just where he could see and smell the lucious fruit. A look of distress came into the sweet little face ; I believe Bob was afraid to trust himself ; and when a man left his seat on the other side to get off the car the little boy slid quickly down, left the temptation behind, and climbed into the vacant place. A pair of pretty gloved bands began almost unconsciously to clap, and then everybody clapped and applauded until it might have alarmed Bob if a young lady sitting by had not slipped her arm around him and said, with a sweet glow on her face : Tell your mamma that we all con gratulate her upon having a little man strong enough to resist temptation and wise enough to run away from it." I doubt if that long, hard message ever reached Bob's mother, but, no mat ter, the note got to his grandmother without ever coming out of his pocket. Specimen Cases. S. H.

His run was between Garrett Ind., and Chicago Junction, O., and nearly every body along the route came to know him personally. His friends could tell his engint every time by the peculiar "toot,' and w henever the engine was in sight there would be a wive of the hand as a recognition of friendship. His engine, the 720, was the best on the division, and if a fast run was to be made Jenkins and the 720 were sure to be on the call board for it One day the old engineer was taken ill and for weeks he lingered on his bed. when it seemed that anly a thread held him on to life. He was sadly missed along the route, and the peculiar "toot" of the whistle was heard no more, for, although old 720 was kept running, there were other hands at the throttle. The crisis of his illness came. The family surrounded the bed and watched w ith breathless eagerness for any sign of a change. The stillness of the room was oppres sive. I Nothing could be heard save the regular, heavy breathing of the sick en gineer. Suddenly he arose on his elbow. He stared wildly around, and his eves look ed like a mailman's. Then he sat np in bed, clutched an imaginary sheet of paper, and gasped: TifSn ; train five ; engine seven-twenty ; prepare to meet thy God." He sank back exhausted and fell into a quiet, easy sleep. When he awoke he was on a fair way to recovery, but by that time the news had reached the place thai a terrible accident had hap pened ; that No. 5 had collided with a freight ; that engine 720 was a wreck, and that the engineer and fireman were dead. Charley Jenkins insisted that be had a presentiment from heaven. Ctmtand World. Bucklen'e Arnica Salvs. The Best Salve in the world for Cut Bruises, Sores, Hcerj, Salt Eheum.

Put boiling water into the base of a large rice boiler: measure two cut of . rolled oata into the top of the boiler, and add a rounding teaspoonful of salt and fivecupe of boiling water. Use a cup with handle in measuring, lest you burn your fingers. Stir together well and taste it ; add more salt jf neej be : it should taste a little too salt, for the erain takes up salt in cooking. Boil, without stirring again, for three-quarters of an honr.
