Two French Investigators have found that the germs of fermentation are not destroyed or perceptibly affected by • pressure of 800 to 400 atmospheres con¬ tinued for several days. | Prof. Langley’s researches have led him to conclusions which imply that, in the absence of absorbing atmosphere, the j earth would receive sufficient heat from the sun to melt an icc-shcll about 180 feet deep over the globe’s entire surface. Recent German researches show that flic purification of natural waters is ef¬ fected almost wholly by plant and Animat agencies, the chemical action of ozone, ,„«i.I. of M T « one .tmotplwic ovygen exerting but a feeble influence !

He affirms that during forty years ho has eaten at least a quarter of a pound of sugar daily ! t not counting sugar-forming substance* taken at the same time, and h« been benefited by it. A “black snow” which fell in 1878 over an area of about fifteen by twenty miles iu the vicinity of Holland, Mich., was found to contain a considerable pro¬ portion of dark earthy matter. This was subjected to elaborate scientific examina¬ tion and pronounced volcanic dust from some far distant crater. A dissenter from this view has Bought a simpler ex- ; plauntion, and has since proven that the dust came from the prairie soil a hundred miles to the southward. After a careful study of the subject Professor P. D. Penhallow concludes that the formation of the so-called “anuual rings" of growth in trees is chiefly de- termined by whatever operates to produce alternating periods of physiological rest and activity. In cold climates the rings are an approximately correct, but not al- ways a certain, index of age. In warm climates, however, the rings are of no value in this respect, as the growth is more likely to mark a period of rainfall than the yearly hot period of summer. For Telling Horses Ages. The full-grown horse possesses twenty- four back teeth, that is, six in each side of each jaws; these are called molars or grinders. He has twelve front teeth, that is, six in each jaw. Mares have no tushes. The foal has either at his birth or shortly afterward eight milk teeth, that is, four in each jaw, at about 12 months two more milk teeth come ^ each jaw. These remain unchanged till he is 3 years old. The mouth of the yearling and 2-year old can¬ not be confounded. The yearling mouth shows signs of use, and the corner teeth are shells only; at 2 yean old these teeth arc strong and well grown, and the cor- ner teeth filled up. A little before I years the two center teeth of each jaw fall out and are replaced by permanent teeth. A little before 4 the two teeth on each side of the center teeth are re- placed by permanent ones. A little be- fore 5 the two remaining teeth are shed, and in their place ooracs permanent ones. The upper milk teeth usually fall out first. Thus the mouth is completed ns to its front teeth; the corner tooth, however, is but imperfectly developed, being at pres- ent a shell only; this shell at 6 years old has filled up and is a complete tooth, This is the difference between a 5 and ear old. The tushes appear between 8 1-3 and 4 years old, and they take nearly two years to arrive at their full growth, 'These teeth, ns the horse grows older, get blunter and shorter, and so to an ex- perienced judge are a sure indication of age. Up to 6 years old the mouth is in a distinct and periodical state of struction- al change. There is no difficulty in dc- termining the age up to that date. Af- ter that the age must be judged by the shape of the mouth and the appearance of the teeth called the mark. At 6 years of age the cups leave two center teeth above, at 7 tho next two above, at 8 the outer or cellar tcctl. .,ivc. At i) the two center teeth below lose the cups, at 10 the next two below, and at 11 the outer or corner teeth below. After a little practice the close observer can scarcely make a mistake. The change* that occur are the same in all horses or nearly so.— Sportsman. Superstition In Central America.

In a lonely, secluded spot ia the north- west corner of the cemetery, near the ever-bcautiful little village of Richmond, Kalamazoo County, Mich, the reader can find on a pure white marble slab nearly concealed from view by a large cluster of lilac bushes, engraved the simple inscrip- tion, “Benjamin Cummings, born 1772, dead A. D. 1848.” And who was Benja- min Cummings? He was the inventor of the circular saw now in use in this coun- try and in Europe. Nearly sixty years ago, at Burtonville, New Y”ork and Ams- terdain, this man hammered out, at his own blacksmith’s anvil, the first circular saw known to mankind. He was a noted pioneer in Richmond; a first cousin to one of the Presidents of the United States ^ a slave owner in New Y T ork State; a lead- ing Mason in the days of Morgan, at whose table the very elect of the great State of New York feasted and drank freely of his choice liquors and wines; a vessel owner on the North River before the days of steamboats; a captain in tho wnr of 1812> w hcre, after having three horses shot un< j er him, with one Btroke of his sword ho brought his superior officer to tho groun q for j nfiu i t) an( j because ho wag a traitor and a coward; and aft< having boen court-martialed, instead - being shot, he was appointed Colonel hig p , ace In thig lone | y grave ar . ^heg 0 f the man who nearly 70years at Albany, N.

He also aided in the construction of the first ten miles of railroad built in the United States, and founded both the villages of Esperenc and Bostonville on the Schoharie, ne Amsterdam. The study and aim of th.. man’s life appeared to be to do th -t which none other could accomplish, and when the object sought was secured he passed it as quietly by as he would the pebbles of tfle seashore.— California Architect.
