Chemical Disinfectants.
A German investigator finds that
the bumlc acid of acid aolla checks
the growth of bacteria This result
was obtained by comparing tbe effects
of fresh peat mold and peat which
had been freed of acid by leaching.
The aoll of moors produced similar re
sults. Tbe bactericidal properties of
the metallic aalta sodium chloride,
caicium chloride, and copper aulphate,
and the carbon compounds ether, ben
rSne. carbon tetra-cblorlde and toluol
were also studied. Sodium chloride
added to urine in the proportion of 2
rcr cent bad no effect on the bacteria.
but their growth waa arrested by 1-8
per cent of copper sulphate and by a
mere trace of calcium chloride, while
1-4 per cent, of calcium chloride pro
duced complete aterlllsatlon. Of the
carbon compounds tested toluol alone
exhibited antiseptic properties, while
ether stimulated the growth of bac
teria. The effect of metallic salts and
peat mold In conjunction was also In
vestigated. The addition of peat mold
. to a soil centalnlDg sodium chloride
diminished the growth of bacteria.
The germicidal action of calcium
chloride la accelerated by the addition
of peat mold, because tbe humlc acid
combines with tbe calcium and the
chlorine la aet free.

THE FIRST SUMCAY SCHOOL.
Humble eryinnlng In Gloucester One
Hundred Yesrs Ago.
One Sunday morning, a hundred
year sgo, a worklniman, carefully
dressed in his best suit came out of
his hours on the main street of the
old -JngllBh town of Gloucester and
strolled lelsv.rely dewn the hill. Tiie
"New Inn" was fronted then, as It Is
to-day. by a rqusre garden overbur.g
by the carved galleries uf the tavein.
There was a n ras-clad well in the ccn
ter. and about It were beds of swei-t-melllng
pinks and columbine.
But the calm of that Sunday morn
ing was destroyed by a crowd of stre it
boys who fought over the flower beds,
making the day hideous with their
noise and coarse talk.
The printer for printing waa his
work on weekdays stopped in tr-e
midst of the crowd and looked ateadl y
at the boys. Presently he said to him
elf: "At this rate those boys will
oon f utterly to the bad. Tbat munt
not be! "here are good polbllit1es
In them. Here bora," he called aloud,
"come with m!"
He ltd thera. yelling and pushing.
down the s:riet Into his own quiet
house, planning as he went how to
keep tiiera there. .
'I am going." he said preen'.ly, to
start a sc hool 'or you. How and here.
It shall be a free icbool; 1 sill be the
teacher." . t
The boy recel'-ed the news with
shout. They were too ragged and
grimy to go to church on Sunuays. No
other decent place was open to Ihem.
The next Sunday his house was
crowded with the same class of chil
dren. Th Idea of a free school on Sunday
appealed to every Christian as a most
hopeful plnn for the rescue of chil
dren from wickedness. It. spread
through the town, through the shire,
through England. It was adopted In
France and Germany: It made Its way
to Australia and to the I'nlted States.
Now, in every country In the world
and In every sect there are the3e
schools, In which every Sunday morn
ing the Bible story Is told, without
mouty and without price.
In th staid old city of Gloucester
they still show you the New Inn and
the garden where the boys played.

Tandem Polygamy
"Tandem Polygamy," the term used
by the Rev. Dr. Parkburst In referring
to some of our prominent society wom
en, is apt enough to find a place In the
language: but a scientific man. with
an eye to accuracy, would prefer to
call It -prosrressive polyandry, al
though "progressive polys ndry" would
drive the average man to the diction
ary, if It did not drive him to drink.
Polyandry Is still prsctised by
tribes In Thibet, parts of India and
tl: P&fific 1 8 Linda. It Is a style of
marriage which may be useful In con
p!:r.ltlf where there Is a surplus-of
n-cn; in other words. In this form of
n-.ftri?jre each woman has several hus-
b-.rds.
What becomes of the mothers-in-law
under thla arrangement Is sot
cr, but many primitive tribes re
tain the inother-ln-law taboo, which ab
solutely forbids, under many afid dire
penalties, the wife or husband to
M.'tak to or even to look at the mother-
In law.
This oM-tlme prarti;e Is still fol

in Arizona, who are polygamlata. Some

peoples.
