Bishop McTyeire, a few months
he died, was visited by the widow of a
Methodist preacher, who asked his advice
in regard to getting her son a position.
He told her to “Send him to Jennings’
Business College—a certificate from R.
W Jennings, "recommending him for him a
situation, would be of more benefit to
than any other influence he could have.”

SCIENTIFIC SCRAPS.
Two Fiench dentists extract teeth
without pain by spraying the external
ear with ctLer.
An instrument has been inventc 1 in
Prussia by means of which an exact dif¬
ferential diagnosis of diseases of the
lungs will be possible. The inventor is
Dr. Janiczewski.
An electric vegetable is said to have
been discovered in India, which hastho
power of affecting the magnetic needle
at a distance of twenty feet when the
weather is clear and dry.
With the view of testing the rapidity
of electric welding, twenty pieces of
oue-ineh common round iron bars with
rough ends were recently welded to¬
gether by two men in thirteen minutes.
It is claimed that wall paper can be
made in such a way that the passage of
low-tensions electric currents will heat
it moderately warm to the touch and
diffuse throughout the room an agreea¬
ble temperature.
A further step toward the artificial
production of the diamond has been
made by passing an electric current
through carbon electrodes in a cell con¬
taining fine white sand and electrodes,
the whole being under considerable
pressure.
The application of hydraulic power
to the manufacture of steel seamless
boats is one of the latest things in Eng¬
land. These boats are thought to be in
every particular superior to those made
of wood, and can be made at about the
same cost.
It is now proposed that London shall
dig the deepest hole. The pit would
have an elevator and be lighted by
electricity, and in each stratum would
be excavated a museum for exhibiting
specimens of the minerals, fossils, etc.,
afforded by it.
The conclusions reached by modern
meteorologists are that cyclones of
great intensity are ascending spiral
whirls of wind having a rotary motion
in a direction in the Northern hemi¬
sphere opposite to the movement of the
hands of a watch.
The yield of the trout spawn in the
fish-breeding establishments at Orval,
Belgium, is stated to have been ex¬
ceedingly good this year. Of the yield
25,000 eggs were sent to this country
in exchange for a like number of Cali -
fornia trout eggs.
Inquiry made in France in order to
carry out the new law giving certain
advantages to fathers of more than
seven children has elicited, among
other things, the fact that there are
2,000,000 households in which there
has been no child.
Experiments recently made in France
with a view to discovering the vitality
of trichine show that even when ex¬
posed to a temperature of 20 degrees to
25 degrees below zero for about two
hours the little animals become as lively
as ever on a return to normal tempera¬
ture.
Professor Poo of Bridgeport, Conn.,
has drowned and resuscitated a pet rab¬
bit eleven times, and suffocated it also
with the fumes of burning charcoal and
restored it to life. The professor uses
a pair of artificial lungs. Artificial
respirations produce muscular contrac¬
tion and expansion, forcing oxygen
into the lungs and drawing out the
deadly gases.
Modem chemistry shows that the
medical lore of the ancient herbalists
had a much sounder basis than had
been imagined. In 1597 water cresses
were recommenced for the cure of
scurvy and scrofula. Chemists now’
say that the cress contains sulphur,
phosphorus, iodine and iron — sulv
stances that are known to be actual
antidotes to scrofula.
The World's Sheep and Wool.
It is roughly estimated that the world
contains at least half a billion sheep—
possibly over 600,000,000—producing
about two billion pounds of wool.
The world’s crop of wool can only be
guessed, but it is certain that the hum¬
ble sheep contributes at least $300, 000-
000 annually, in wool, to the wealth of
mankind. Our own wool crop, great¬
est in 1884, when it was estimated at
808,000,000 pounds, was in 188S 265,-
000,000 pound*. Nearly half the wool
we wear is of foreign growth, the
figures of 1S87 being a crop of 269,-
900,000 pounds, an import of 114,000,-
000 pound*, and a contents of 133,000,-
000 pounds wool in imported goods.—

nutrition, increasing the weight, and
palliating many of the distressing appetite, symp¬

diarrhoea, night sweats, and insomnia.
Its action on the liver is manifested by an
increase in the size of the organ, and a

thousands have thus by use been-pt ■rma*
