The b'crin ot Smallpox.
Professor Guaniuri, of tho Univer
sity of Pisa, is of the same opiniou as
that published by him in U!!)2, viz.,
that the process of postulation, both
of cowpox and smallpox, is originated
by a parasite which develops in tho
epithelial cells, lie has studied both
the morphology and biology of this
organism. It is capable of amoebic
movements, which can be seen on ex
amination of lymph taken from the
initial vesicle at the temperature of
the human body. By this process
Professor Guaniuri has also verified
the multiplication of the parasite un
der tho microscope, and the fact of
phagocytosis by polynuelcatod, leu
cocytes. With a stain of gentian and
methylene, the structure of this low
organism may be studied. Tt consists
(if a roundish body with a clear out
line. Professor Guamuri has suc
ceeded in reproducing the parasite in
the cornea of rabbits with inoculation
of the same lymph, and lie has verified
the fact that no other source of irrita
tion is capable of producing anything
of the appearance of the same parasite
in the cornea. Professor Guaniuri be
lieves that it is a zooparasite belong
ing to the class of rhizopode, and that
it is the causo of both cowpox and
smallpox.
Why a Wile Changes Her Name.
It is said that tho practice of tho
wife's assuming the husband's name
at marriage originated from a Komau
custom, and became the common prac
tice after the Roman occupation.
Thus, Julia and Octavia, married to
l'ompey aud Cicero, were called by
the Romans Julia of Ponipey, aud
Octavia of Ciero, and in later times
married women in most European
con 11 tries signed their names iu the
same maimer, but omuiitted tho "of."
Against this view may be mentioned
that during the sixteenth and even the
beginning of seventeenth century tho
usage seems doubtful, since we see
Kntheriue I'arr so signing herself after
she had been twice married, and we
always hear of Lady Jane Grey (not
Dudley) anil Arabella Stuart (not
Seymour). Souie persons think that
the custom originated from the Scrip
tural teaching that husband aud wife
aro one. It was decided in the case of
Bon vs. Smith, in the reign of Eliza
beth, that a woman by marriage lotes
her former name and legally receives
that of her husband.—New York Tele

THE MEI/TINO TEST FOR BUTTER.
This test, says E. Reich, is only
preliminary, and no claim is mado that
it is invariably conclusive. Pure,
Ircsh butter when melted is perfectly
clear or only slightly cloudy, usually
dark yellow, anil has the familiar odor
of pure butter-fat. l'ure stale butter
may be very cloudy and oven opaque
when melted, is usually of a dark yel
low color, and lias tho odor of rancid
butter. Melted margarine, on the
other hand, is very opaque, of a light
yellow color, aud has a characteristic
indescribable odor.—Literary Digest.
"DOWLAS'S MIXTURE."
Tho solution known lis "Douglas's
Mixture," and so much in favor among
English poultrymon as a tonic, is
made by putting eight ounces of sul
phate of iron (alpo known as greeu
vitriol and copperas) into a jug with
two gallons of water and adding one
ounce of sulphuric acid. This is to bo
put into the drinking water of the
fowls in the proportion of a teaspoon
ful to each pint. This mixture should
be made and kept in a stone jug or
glass bottle, aud never in a metal ves
sel. So soon as any disease breaks I
out among poultry this should be
given to the healthy, to enable them
to resist it, together with more nu
tritious and easily digestible food.—

TO PREVENT TREES LEANING.
Those who have trees which have j
been set one or two seasons will do j
well to bear in mind the importance of j
staking them so that they will resist
the influence of the most frequently
prevailing or heaviest winds. Those
which have been set two years need it
as much as those which were put out
last spring, as they are likely to pre
sent as much surface to the wind as
they have roots in the earth. Put
down a stout stake a few feet from the
trunk, and then put on a withe or a
strip of cloth, binding the treo to the
stake in the form of a figure 8, so that
the crossing of tho baud will prevent ;
any chafing of the tree-trunk against
the stake. In this way can be pre- |
vented the spectacle so often seen of
whole orchards leaning over, showing
definitely the direction of tho prevail
ing winds. If you want to have your
orchard permanent keep your trees up
s.traight from the start. —Rural Life.
HINTS FOR YOUR HARDEN.
White clover and bluegrass make
the best mixture for a lawn.
Buy plants of hardy perennials.
Most of them arc difficult to grow
front seed.
Prune your trees now and the wound
will be quickly healed by tho running
sap.
Make a definite plan for your gar
den. Don't putin everything helter
skelter.
Get a practical florist's advice if you
try roses; this is a hard climate to
grow them iu.
Hollyhocks do best when treated as
biennials. Tli y are less able to staml
our severe climate after lloworiug.
The bridal wreath is a pretty shrub,
whether in flower or leaf. Don't prune
it and the slender branches will droop
gracefully with the weight of their
white foliage.
Double petunias are beautiful flow
ers and delightfully fragrant. Buy a
few plants, as the seed is expensive
and uncertain about growing. Single
petunias, which are also very pretty,
grow from seed like a wood.—New
York Advertiser.
CLUB liOOT OF ('AIUIAi)E.
Tho club root of cabbage and the
several plants of the cabbage family
is a well known and dreaded disease
among Eastern farmers and gardeners.
Hut, while more prevalent in tho East
ern portion of the country, it is also
known in the West aud South, causing
often heavy losses.
A bulletin issued from the New
Jersey Agricultural Experiment
Station gives iu deta 1 the remits of
experiments an I investigations made
ou the station grounds and elsewhere,
with a view to assisting farmers iu
lighting the club rout. Many of the
facts contained in this bulletin are of
general interest to tho cultivators of
cabbage, turnips, kale, etc.
Brietly stated, the malady is due to
a microscopic paiaMte which infest*
the ceils of the roots, causing them t >
become saolh-ti a it distorted. The
spores of tile fuil|/il*, upon the decay
of ibo part allcctcd, become scat
tered through th» soil, and from
thill 'u the cue lay inters the bout
plant. The club root inlet i several
pistil** of the cabbage family, includ
mix turnip, kale, moult, »t >.'k an I
candytuft. l a ■ common we Is
namely, sl'cpnerd'a purse an I lie
mustard are how to be added to th<
list of plants infested with club root.

and that in feeding hogs the man who
feeds them will succeed with them.
In spite of the general opinion to
the contrary, some maintain that tho
hog has a preference for being clean,
and cite many instances of his keep
ing one side of his pou clean if at all
encouraged or started with it clean,
etc. Here is one man's idea iu regard
to a clean pen and pure food : Every
farmer with 100 acres ought to feed
from twenty to 100 hpgs. The com
mon way of constructing tho floors
of tho pens is unsuitable. If they
slope backward from the trough they
will be kept wet. That means sickly
hogs that do not thrive well. I pre
fer to make the floors slant toward tho
trough. Twice the profit can be made
when the animals lie dry all the while,
and besides that their health is much
better. Then the feeding trough
should have its holding capacity in
length and not in depth. It pays to
have them fed with good, clean feed,
which meaus the difference between
profit and loss. They will take the
waste from the table. It does not do,
as is usually the case, to have it put
into a tub or barrel which is never
cleaned. That becomes poison. It
ferments and sours and makes bad
blood. With the sow aud young pigs
taking it, the consequence is they die
before ten days old, and even littlo
pigs have the right to bo well born,
lloga fed on clean food should gaiu at
least one pound for every four and a
half pounds of grain used ; a man can
tell whether it is paying to keep them
or put his labor to other sources of
profit. If any man feeds his hogs too
long it costs more than he can mako
out of them.—Western Agriculturist.
FARM AND GARDEN NOTES.
Be kind to the colts and you will
have gentle horses.
There is no fruit that can be grown
as readily as the grape.
Big horns and a fleshy udder are re
garded as bad points in a milch cow.
A siek cow should be put by lierßelf
at once and covered with a warm blan
ket.
Standard-bred trottersthatcau't trot
are poor property for any breeder to
stock up with.
Care and feed are just as important
factors as pedigree in raising trotting
stock at a profit.
It. is a pretty well established fact
that a profitable butter cow is a prof
itable cheese cow.
The poultry keeper who does not
furnish a dust bath deprive* his
chickens of a necessity.
The financial success ofbreedingthe
trotter depends upon tho liuancial
prosperity of trotting sport.
Mueh of tho failure of seeds to ger
minate iu the spring is due to the fact
that they are planted too deep.
When hens or hogs get weak in the
logs it is often a sign that they have
been fed two much corn and cormneal.
A farmer wants to know how much
alsike to sow to the acre. Ten pounds
of seed would be a great sutlioiency on
j good land.
If the hen house is overcrowded
| there will b • trouble. Disease will
almost surely appear and the liens
! will not lay.
Tie up the horses' tails whenever it is
muddy, t>ut don't leave them tied up
over night. It injures their appear
ance to bay the least.
There is not very mueh dillerenee
in the cost of feeding a cow that makes
ISO pounds of butter in on > year and
one making double as much.
Study the horse's foot and the
proper methods of shoeing. It will
then be possible for you to know if
your nlacksinith knows his business.
Currants should have a space jf
four feet, and gooseberries the same,
an l be kept trimmed and cultivated.
I'ut out Old wood when it becomes un
thrifty.
The sugar beet is valuable as a foo 1
for fowls. Served raw through the
summer it auswera to the purpose of
xreen food when other vegetables are
scarce.
Crude petroleum is better than
kerosene, comes eh ipor, an I if uttcu
applied to your hen roosts aud heu
houses will soon destroy ail rats,
mites, etc.

Table linen is beet mended with em
broidery cotton of a number to corre
spond with the quality of tho cloth.
Under the ragged edges of the tear
baste a piece of stiff paper, and make
a network of fine stitchos about an

breaks in linen may be run with flax
or embroidery floss, and towols should
Im mended in the samo way.—New

TO DEFY THE MOTII.
If you wish to defy that unpleasant
/ittle animal, tho moth, in packing
away your furs aud woolen garments,
here are a few suggestions to follow :
First, boat out all the dust from the
garment and let it hang in tho open
air aud sunshine for a day. After this,
shako very hard, fold neatly and sew
up closely in muslin or linen cloths,
putting a small lump of gum-camphor
in tlio centre of each bundle. Wrap
newspapers about all. In addition to
these precautions, secure as a packing
case a whisky or alcohol barrel but
lately emptied aud still strongly
scented by the liquor. Have a close
head aud fit it in neatly. Thea set
away in the garret.—New York World.
AN OLD SEWINO MACHINE.
Blessed is the plant lover that can
count among her possessions an old
sowing machine, exclaims Anna Lyman
in the New York Independent. Mino
was gathering dust and cobwobs in
the garret, when the happy thought
suggested itself to make it into a
plant stand. The top works and large
wheel underneath wero soon taken
away, and hero was a strong, pretty
looking table on iron legs with cas
ters, tho last being invaluable on zero
nights to wheel my establishment
nearer the stove. A box was made,
six inches high and somewhat larger
than tho stand. This was half filled
with sand. Here I learnod a florist's
secret. You notice they put their pots
on sand or soft earth and not on a
dry shelf or table, as we amateurs
generally do. So my geraniums and
other plants were put down on tho
sand, and the air was kept moist, as
plants like to have it. Tradeseanti
was stuck in around the pots, making
s shaded carpet. The old fashioned
green Virgiuia creeper has gone out,
and lovely colored leaves take its
place—striped, silvered, pink, white,
gray, bright as flowers. My stand was
a grand success all winter, and I hope
to got h"hl of another old sewing ma
chine to make a fernery for my north
window. In the summer it will be
moved to the piazza, and I can have a
geranium in bloom, or some other pot
plant, and it will be a grand plaoe for
the chrysauthemums later. If I want
stands or vases for my plants, I am
pretty sure to find some discarded
thing in garret or cellar that answers
tho purpose.
BECIPES.
Hard Gingerbread—One cupful ot
sugar, one of butter, one-third of a
cupful of molasses, half a cupful of
sour milk or cream, one teaspoonful
of saleratus, one tablespoonful of
ginger, flour enough to roll. Roll
thin, cut in oblong pieces and bake
quickly. Care must be taken that too
much flour is not mixed iu with tho
dough. All kinds of cakes that are
rolled should have uo more flour than
is absolutely necessary to work thorn.
Cheese Fingers —Take oue-qniirter
of pound of puff paste and roll it out
thin ; then take two ounces of Parme
san cheese, half a teaspoouful of
cayenne an I a pint of salt. Mix these
ami sprinkle the clieeso over half the
paste, turn the other half over it auil
cut it with a sharp knife half an inch
wide and any length you please. Bake
in a cpiiek oven and serve hot, shaking
a little grated cheese over theiu. The
lingers must lie piled in a dish, cross
ing each other at right angles.
For Chicken Omelet—Scrape the
bits of meat left on the bo.ly bones of
of a baked chicken after it has don !
service on the dinner table. Usj all
the dressing left with it. Mince tine
with the chopping knife. Beat two
egss light, and add one spoonful of
tlour and one gill of milk. Mix with
the minced chicken and fry in a well
buttered pan on top the stove. When
brown and set, fold over iu half and
serve at once. Omelets should never
be allowed to stand and grow cold.
liice Muffins -One pint of milk, one
quart of tlour, one pint of boiled rioe,
throe egifs, two tablespoon fills of
sugar, one teaspoouful of silt, one >f
soda, two of cretin of tartar. Mix the
sujjar, salt, s > la an I cream of tarta.'
with thi dour and rub through a
sieve, Heat the an I all to th s
milk. Stir gra lutlly into the flour.
When it makes a smooth, liifht paste,
add the rioe and beat thoroughly.

D'scovery or Aztec Relics.
Moses Thatcher, a noted and ex
ceedingly wealthy Mormon leader,
has returned to San Francisco from
an exploring trip in Mexico.
Referring to a tract of country in
the Sierra Madre Mountain district of
the State of Chihuahua, where it
Mormon colony has recently been
established, Mr. Thatcher said:
"In a radius of 100 miles there is
enough masonry to build two cities
the size of San Francisco, and this
tells the tale of a great civilization
that once flourished there. Near by
I purchased a tract of land. On part
of this land I discovered about half n
dozen caves. The entrances were
walled up with cement two and a half
feet thick, with ouly port holes and a
narrow aperture left sulliciently wide
to allow one person to enter. These
caves were provided with ollus, in
which water and provisions were
stored, and were formed of long saca
tion grass, mixed with cement, nnd
were usually about twelve feet high
and eight or nine feet in width. One
was in perfect preservation.
"The caves were divided into apart
ments, and one of them contained
seventeen rooms. Upon the walls are
still fresh character writings of the
ancient inhabitants, of the same class
as described in the 'Mexican Antiqui
ties' by Lord Kingsbury. The caves
on the land referred to will accommo
date fully 1000 persons, and a cele
brated Belgian scientist not long ago
found more relics in them than he had
in a search of 150 miles elsewhere."—

Chandelier of Human lioncs.
In the centre of the arched roof of
All Saints' Church, Sedlitz, in Bo
hemia, hangs a chandelier constructed
entirely of human bones. The church
in which this remarkable object is sus
pended is decorated from the floor to
the ceiling with the blanched bones of
human bodies. Garlands of bones
stretch across the walls and hang from
the ceiling. Pyramids, topped with
golden crowns, are artistically reared
from the ground with these whitened
remains of the dead. Tho altars are
literally covered with skulls, among
which are hundreds of those which
had been pierced by bullets or crushed
by murderous blows from swords and
other weapons, denoting that these
grim relics of humanity have been
gathered from adjacent battlefields.
Tradition says that these piles of hu
man bones were gathered by u blind
friar of the Cistercian Order, who
stored them in a corner of the church.
As they were fast changing into their
original elements, a man named Rint
devoted himself to the task of cleaning
and arranging them in the church.
Prince Carl, of Scliwarzenberg, took
a strong personal interest in the res
toration and arrangement of the
church, and ordered all the repairs to
be doue at his own expense.—New-

A Tnxltlormist's Revelations.
The Pull Mall Gazette, in an inter
view with one of the leading taxider
mists of London, brings to light some
carious facts about rare birds and
their eggs. "Of course," said the
great taxidermist, "you know I have
made some dodos and a great auk.
No? Evidently you are an amateur
at taxidermy. Wo make 'em of grebes'
feathers and the like. And the great
auk's eg s, too! We make the eggs
out of fine porcelain. Ite 1 you it is
worth while. They fetch—well, one
fetched SISOO only the other day.
That one was really genuine, I believe ;
but, of course, oie is never certain.
It is very fine work, and afterward
you have to get them dusty, for no one
who owns one of these precious eggs
has ever the temerity to clean the
thing. Even if they suspect an egg
they do not like to examine it too
closely. It is such brittle capital at
the best. You did not know that taxi
dermy rose to such heights as that?
It has risen higher. I have rivalled
the hands of nature herself! One of
the genuine great auks," his voice fell
to a whisper—"one of tho genuine
great auks was made by me! And,
what is more, I have been approached
by a syndicate of dealers to stock one
of the unexplored skerries to the north
of Iceland with specimens. I may—
some day."
