'Mr. Brabham has also sent three Specimens of corn in three colors, a glance at which, he says, should prove that black corn will be his next year. By crossing red and blue corn will in two years, he claims, develop black corn. This being true, -Mr. Brabham argu'es that by crossing the blu$ Indian cotton with the darker shades which he has developed from white cotton he is bound to obtain the long sought black cotton. "Not only cotton and corn, but almost any other crop, Mr. Brabham feels convinced, can be produced in colors. Although he does not expect himself to reap the commercial profits of his discovery, he is content in the satisfaction of believing that he is bequeathing to posterity a contribution of enormous value in scientific knowledge." Oldest Family in the World. The emperor of Japan belongs to the oldest reigning house in existence. Native historians claim that his ancestors can be traced back to 660 B. C. Prof. Basil Hall Chamberlain thinks that, while this is going back * j ^ x 1 about a tnousana years too iar, inert is no doubt that "the Japanese Imperial family stands forth proudly as the' oldest in the world." We know positively that it has reigned ever since the dawn of history in Japan, and that even then it was considered of immemorial age. Little wonder, therefore, all things considered, if a religious reverence for the imperial line is as idiomatic in Japan as is the doctrine of the equal rights and duties of all men in the democratic societies of the west. ?
