WoriDERFUL BEVELATIONS (IF Tilt M I OWiCOPE, The, scioutillo world has been groatl3 startled and agitpted of late by the discovery with the mio-oscope of the most dreadful enemy of mankin:1 in the form of myriads of little death-denling parasites. The air we breathe and live in is charged with these deadly little growths in propqrtion as it is infefol from various noxious sourcos. H1avin by recent experimentg and research been ahown to be the most fruitful cause of disease known, and the welfare and health of ovory individual doponding so largely on the freedom from their destruc tive ravagos, It is but natural that the re ports of recent investigators in this field of scientific inquiry should be widely road, and that every plaso of thieso astounding discov eries should ho subject to universal discuss ion. At first re .-ivt d with some suspicion they have at length bon thoroughly proven, and are now receiving the unqualified in dorsoinot of the loading scientific men throuhout the world. But little else is talkoiTof in the schools and clubs of scienco, and the medical and scientific journals are crowded with the testimony that is being added corroborative of the value of the mar volous discovery vhieh is pronounced the greatest advanco in medical scienco of mod orn times. To L. PAsmun, the eminent French scientist, who by his learned invesigations has savo:1 to France so many millions of dol lars, is probably duo the honor of first point lng out tho terrible power of those gorns. In recognition of his great. service the govern ment has recently voted him from the public treasury $10,000 with which to continue his experiients. he has described several va rioties of the to parasites, some comparatively harmless, others extremely dangerous. Orb formI ho provod by a sorio: of vaccinations and other conclusivo experiments was the causo.of death of mnity thousands of ani mals and herds of cattle; another the activo agent in the death of fowls by cholera. Act ing u-on the knovledgo ho had gained of the nature of these gers, he pointed out a means of rei(ef that speedily provented a spread of the disouses and ended their dovas tot ion. 'YNDALT,, with the aid of other eminent Eng4,sh investigators, mado a number of ox amm ions of the floating particles in the atmos;piCre and found numbers of living sporcs cNi )lo of producing disease. In dry and healeiy localitis but fow germs were found, a1 these of the harmloss variotics, while in I >w damp pla-es, crowded houses and unhot thy cities, tho poisonous gerns were extre ly nutorous everywhero.

THRRz are rpany women, at least two in every villa6- 1ome of whode moments are made buid4ilsome on account of having in sitting-room, behind the coal stove a lopg shelf of wood. This is usually fainted white, to matoh other wood-work in the room, and on this white-painted surface the soft, gray dust settles all tie time. There is no vigilance short 'of the eternal which serves to keep: It free. A young Nwife tried this Plan,,and it is so- nearly satis factory that she tells it for the benefit of others: Make a lambrequin for the shelf; it ma he of aida canvas or of Maorame. it need not be a deep lam brequin; from tea inches to fifteen will ftswer. Then ,cover the shelf with crash and attach the lambrequin to it. The dust may settle there, but if given one careful brushing an the morning you will not be disheartened by seeing it for the rest of the day. The lambre broquiv in the' case mentioned was made of Macram6. and was crocheted; three spaces were left through which scarlet ribbons were run; the edge was finihhed with a deep, largo scallop. The ribbons were put in lengthwise. If one choose to do so, the ribbons could Pe put in the other way and the ends could be left a little longer than the lambrequin, and, after being turned back in points, little tassels of crewel could be put on, This -is a pretty de. sign for a corner bracket. TREATMENT OF DIPHTUEREIc SonS TIMOAT.-Every now and then we meel an epidemic of a form of sore throal which, In many particulars, resemblek diptheria. The onset is sudden. TIh disease is ushered in by chilliness ol actual shivering, followed by fever, los of appetite, headache and pain in the throat, aggravated by swallowing. On examination, the tonsils, the arch o the fauces, and in many cases the uvula, are red and swollen, and in some casef albumen is found in the urine. Th< temperature may reach 105, while th< pulse is much accelerated. It is dis, tinctly infectious, for wives become af fected subsequent to their husbands and in some familics all the memberk are attacked. Such an opedemio hat recently appeared in Edinburg, and Dr. Allan Jamieson, who makes a report oJ it in the Edinburg Medical Journal foi Decembor, has found the most marked benefit to result from the internal ad. ministration of salicylate of soda ani local application of a solution of boro glyceride in glycerine, frequently dur iug the day.

Wien of the table it should be kept on an oper dish in the pantry, with a clean cloti, wvrung out in cold water, folded ani laid on the top of it; the cloth must b( changed every day, and it must b( merely damp, not wet. When a ver) large whole cheese has been bought il is best to cut it in half, and carefully to cover the - half not intended for im. mediato use with writing paper, thick, ly spread with fresh butter; not on< hittle space should be left uncovered: then wrap the-whole in brown paper oio it round wimf surng, andi keep it ii a dry cool place till within a fortmghl of being wvanted, when begin to treat il as described above.

J, i. JOLY gave to the Montreal Hor tioultural Booiety directions for planting blaock walnuts, of which the following is the substance: Avoid traniplanting the trees if practiceable, by planting tbo nuts where the trees are to remain. The rows should be four feet apart each way. At this near distance the trees will grow up without lateral branches (which are apt to be torn off by snow or wind). and they may be thinned as their growth requires. The nuts should be sunk about two inches in the ground. The rows should be perfectly straight, st N%ith a line and marked from place with stakes. so as to show accurately the young plants the first year in culti voting. The ground must be thoroughly prepared beforehand, and'the richer the more rapid the growth. Always sow in the fall if practicable. If the nuts are lott till spring out of the ground they become dry and will not grow. We have found no difficulty in transplanting the young trees at five or six feet high, and have measured a number sot in streets more than 20 years ago which are now about 14 or 15 inches in diametor,grow ing in grass and near flagging. HERBEnT OsnoRN, Of the Iowa Agri onitural Uollege, recommends as reme dies for the scurvy bark louse and the oyster shell lonse, kerosene and soap, The kerosene may be used pure where it can be done with safety, but ordmar ily it must be diluted with water. This may be accomplished by forming an emulsion of koroseno and milk(skimmed milk answers well), and then diluting with about an equal quantity of water, or by shaking up a mixture of milk, kerosene and water in equal parts, and then adding more water, taking care not to add so much as to cause the mixture to separate. Sprinkle or spray it upon the infested twigs and branches. Soap is an excellent remedy, Make a solu tion of whale oil soap, one-iourth of a pound of soap to a gallon of water, and apply to the infected paitts of the tree. repeating the application alter a few days, Lyo is said to have been used with goo( success, but is considered unequal to soap. PROPEssOU SHELTON, of the Kansas State Agricultural College, gives his views concerning the continued culture of broom-corn on the fertility of the soil in the college paper, the Industrialist. He says: "Ultimately, the effects of such crops as broom corn, hemp, flax, and perhaps castor beans, which furn 181 no stock food, or but very httle,will be seriously felt in Kansas in the loss of fertility sustained by thoso lands upon which these are cultivated. The fiot that broom-corn is a hoed or culti vated crop makes it much less danger onts than is flax, which receives no cul tivation during the period of its growth.
