I cannot advise him to marry her,
for I know that no girl who is untidy
about her person and the house could
make a good wife. She could not
make a man comfortable, and no man's
love is proof against discomfort.

This young man differs in nowise

I Many a man's interest in a girl has
f been checked because he found her to
f be untidy about her home,
r In a town where I used to visit there
lived a family of charming girls.
Igj They were pretty and bright, and al rurL
ways surrounded by young men. But
they did not seem to marry.
Other girls less attractive married,
but three pretty girls, though appar*
ently great belles, remained single.
I asked a young man friend what

1 them because they were so notoriously

VITALITY OF SEEDS.
IMPORTANT RESULTS OF SCIENTIFIC
INVESTIGATION.
lutu?M mf Seeds Holding Suspended
Their Germinating Powers For One Hundred
and Fifty Tears and Then Springing
to life. Voder Proper Treatment.
Not long ago It was generally believed
that grains of wheat from Egyptian tombs
had been made to germinate, and then
seemed therefore to be no limit to the
dormant life of a seed. When these storlee
were proved to be without foundation,
there was a general tendency to disbelieve
all of a similar kind. Now, however, II
seems established that seeds may live, under
proper conditions, a great many years,
perhaps for centuries, and when we consider
that under these oiroumstances the
protoplasm within the seed actually maintains
its vitality, this fact is very significant.
On the question of hfcw seeds aosomplish
this, much light has been thrown
by recent experiments of C. de Candolle,
the French botanist, which he describes In
Le Revue Sclentiflque. Some part* of
his artiole are as follows:
"Seeds that have retained their germinating
power are said to possess 'latent
life.' This expression lacks preoision, foi
we may ask whether the life of the seeds
is completely arrested or if it is only retarded,
and the answers would not be the
sane In all cases.
"We owe to Messrs. Van Tleghem and
Bonnier the following experiment, which
proves that seeds can, in fact, live for a
certain time this retarded life. Three loti
of the same number of peas and beans
were placed, the first in the open air, the
second In a sealed glass tube containing
ordinary air, the third in a sealed tube
nnntninina nnlv nnre carbonio acid sas.
A.t the end of two years the seeds of th?
first lot had sensibly increased In weight,
and nearly all had retained their germinating
power. Those preserved in the confined
air bad inoreased less in weight and
germinated in less number than the preceding.
Moreover, the air contained in
the tube with them had ohanged in composition.
Its proportion of oxygen had
fallen to 11.4 per oent, and there was
mixed with it S.8per cent of oarbonio acid.
As to the seeds kept In the oarbonio sold,
none of them oould germinate, and tbeli
weight bad not ohanged."
Experiments are then described by M.
de Candolle that relate to the wonderful
power of resistance to oold displayed bj
seeds. Experiments already made by oth<
ers show that these seeds may germinate
after having been exposed to a temperature
of 1,008 kelow rero, oentlgrade. Now
the researches of Piotet in his celebrated
low temperature laboratory In Berlin Bhow
that at suoh a point ohemlnal action totally
ceases. Henoe the aotlve life of the
seeds in question muBt have been reallj
suspended, ana nevertneiees iaey wen
able to germinate when planted. In M.
do Candolle's own experiments seeds wen
subjected once a day for 118 days to a tern
perature of 878 to 538 below rero, for 8 tc
90 hours at a time, and notwithstanding
this harsh treatment, they sprouted when
planted. If the life of the seeds, however,
were really suspended they moat be abU
to live out of contaot with air for a oertaii
time. In order to see whether they oould
do this, M. de Candolle kept seeds nndei
mercury from one to three month* without
killing them.
In this state of suspended life a seed li
In a ohemloal condition, aooording to M.
de Candolle, somewhat resembling that o!
an explosive mixture?that Is, it la read]
for ohemloal aotlon (growth), but that action
will not begin until the surroundlni
oonditions are right. In the exploalvi
these are oonditions of dryness, tempera
tare, eto., just as they are with the seed
A seed, then, is a little bomb, only wait
lng to be touched off to release its store ol
energy and send out a disoharge In th<
shape of a sprout. M. de Candolle r?
marks on this as follows:
"This state of chemical and vital lnertlf
may last a long time, perhaps even indefl
nitely. It Is at least, as It seems to ma
the only way of explaining the preserva
tlon of seeds during a great number o!
years. Cases are known where they have
germinated after a period so long that II
is impossible to beliere that they hav<
ooduduea lu 1110, pruparijr jjca&iug, u
the interval, no matter how slowly th<
processes of lift may have gone on. Hen
Are some remarkable examples:
"A. P. de Candolle mentions seeds that
iprooted very well after more than 6(
rears.
"Glrardln has seen beans sprout tha'
had lain in the storehouse of Tournefoti
more than 160 years.
"In 1850 Robert Brown sowed, fron
ounloslty, some seeds from the oolleotioi
of Sir Hans Sloane, where they had re
mained for more than 160 years. He iuo
oeeded in making several germinate, it
partloular one of Nelumbium specloaun
(a water lllyf), of whloh the plan has beei
preserved in the British museum, where ]
aw it a few years sinoe.
"The alleged germination of mummj
wheat Is, as is now generally known, bui
baseless fable. It appears, besides, thai
tb? wheat was always sterilized before be
!??? nn'fc Inkn f.ho whloh DrB
oluded all possibility of it* growth. Bat
to make up for the falsity of this storj
divers well authenticated facts show thai
seeds oan preserve their power of sprouting
after an extremely prolonged sojourn be
neath the earth?that Is to say, in sheltei
from atmospherlo Influences.
