In gen eral, t ho temperature range is very wide and for this reason bacteria I are widely distributed. They are j destroyed by boiling, but freezing only cheeks their action and when the temperature is raisd, growth begins again. Cold storage is used to stop bacterial growth. Milk placed iu spring or well water remains sweet for several | hours, because the cooling lowers the temperature of the bacteria that sour it.

Absence of Sunlight.—Two I hours exposure to sunlight will j destroy most species. Ordinary daylight is not very injurious. WlfAT BACTERIA DO. Bacteria disintegrate the dead bodies of plants and animals and the elements of which these bodies are composed are restored to the air and to the soil to he used in the construction of new forms of life. This renders the life cycle coins plete, “All that has lived must die, nndall that is dead must be disin tegrated—the elements which are the substratum of life must enter into new cycles of life.” Without I bacteria the world would be cover ed with mummies of animals and plants and the food elements would in time become exhausted, and life would become extinct. The general function of bacteria is destructive — but there is a group that arc constructive, i. e., instead of breaking down com pounds, they construct new ones. For instance, the bacteria that work upon the roots of clover, lucern, peas, &e., are constructive —they take the nitrogen from the air and unite it with oxygen and other elements and form nitrates which are soluble and can be read ily used by plants. The greatest number of bacteria arc found a little below the surface of Ihe soil. Ilousson found them in the soil us follows: BACTERIA PElt GRAM.

Major Austin, writing of his travels in central Africa say: The grandest, the most awe in spiring, the most tremendous voice on earth issues from the throat of that king of beasts, the lion. It is rather difficult to de scribe that mighty roar bursting out into the silence of the night and seeming to shake the very ground beneath one. It makes one feel petty, insignificant, of no account,-when his majesty voices his satisfaction at having dined well on some poor unsuspecting antelope which has allowed itself to fall under the clutches of tlint ponderous paw. The men hud dled together; a deadly stillness follows; there is a catch in one’s breath, and it is with a sense of relief a whisper, perhaps, of I The wife who tries to keep alive I her husband’s love for his mother, not only in his heart, hut in out ward observance as well, m the end serves her own interest bettor than iheirs.

The poor, heart- hungry mother who stands by with brimming eyes, fearful that the joy of her life may he taken from her, will be content with a little if she may but keep it for her own. It is on ly a little while, at the longest, for the end of the journey is soon, but sunset and afterglow would have some of the rapture of dawn if her son's wife opened the door of her thoughtless young heurt and said, with true sincerity and wells of tenderness, “Mother — come!” Pittsburg Dispatch. Question for Question. A young Japanese compositor employed on a Japanese journal was riding down town in a city hall train the other morning.

A man was arrested in San Fran cisco the other day for cruelty to animals in offering live lizards for sale. Just where the cruelty came in was not satisfactorily explained.

The every week ads yertising may not convince all the people, but it is just what makes the general impression and that gives the store tho advantage over the other man who is waiting.— I am puzzled to know how it is more cruel to sell lizards than to sell dogs, cats or horses, but the amuscing feature of the case was the reason given by a police judge for dismissing the case. lie said that testimony failed to establish the fact that a lizard was a animal. —San Francisco Town Talk.

That diphtheria may hye in packed clothing almost idetimtely is shown by an incident which oc curred in an Ohio village.

The Timid Advertiser. Enthusiasm is the life of trade —not the irrational ebullitions coming from those who imagine they know it all, but an enthu siasm born of eonlidence ability to make goods move. The timid ad*- vertiser never succeeds*, the tenta tive advertiser sometimes, but the euthusiastic advertiser always wins the goal. It is the knowl edge of men and things that makes the successful advertiser. Adver tising requires some mouey and unlimited hut rightly directed en- husiasm. —Iowa Trade Journal, the Railway Coni* pany. A poor man, a son of Erin, who after a loug and hard pull hiui managed to acquire the ownership of a small farm of seventy acres in a western state of poor and in different quality of soil and con tour, was recently approached by the right of way agent of a rail road company which wished to split his little farm in two with a new line of road. Pat tiegged and protested; did not want to sell the right of way; wanted to have them go around his place. Being unable to buy the right of way, the land was condemned by pros cess of law, and Pat had to take $1,500 and sec his farm split in two pieces. Curiously enough, when tho road was built it involv ed a deep cut through Pat’s land when a splendid quarry of stone was unearthed, tho existence of which Pat never dreamed of, and he was able to make a long time lease of the quarry to a stone com pany at the handsome rent of #1,*, 500 per year. Thus does Dame Fortune sometime convert our seeming misfortunes into blessings. No Fun in Being a Brides maid. Nowadays brides think they are lucky in getting the bridesmaids they wish. In fact, the average girl “in Ihc whirl” has come to dislike tho role of attendant. She must buy her own gown and bat, of course, and sho must not hagglo over the question of cost. For in stance, at the Fanshawe-White wedding the hats cost more than $110 each. Valuable osprey plumes were used and also bands of sable. The Goelct-ltoxburgho turbans were less expensive, al** though th05% too, were trimmed with Russian sable. Still, many a girl clinches her social position by appearing at a “smart” weddiag. —New York Post. Town Boom Hints. Never let no opportunity pass to praise your town and extol its ad - vantages. The community with the beet roads is very likely to be the beet community. More disease is removed from a town by proper cleauiug than can bo cured by all the doctors in the place.
