We. have long accepted that our
pennies and other coins were germ
carriers, but it is a surprise to be
told that those trifling bits of metal
that we use so freely and scatter so
widely, the common pins, are quite
. big enough to carry the deadliest of
germs. Yet why not? We know
that a pin scratch occasionally pro
duces virulent blood poisoning, and,
though it has been assumed that the
trouble came from the open wound
rather than the actual pin, it might
easily.under this new reading pro
ceed from a poisonous germ carried
by the pin itself.
The constant cry against germs
and microbes and the apparent fact
that there seems no escape from
contact with them need not be com
pletely discouraging. The average
healthy mortal in good condition
resists the attacks of these minute
enemies pretty effectually. The
real value of the germ agitation
among the laity is because of its en
couragement to general sanitation
and cleanliness, conditions in which
all communities have vastly im
proved of late years.—New York

Were
Hatched In a Tree.
About May .1 one of our hens,
which was known, to he laying, to
tally disappeared. For some ten
days she baffled all our efforts to
discover any trace of her. At last
Bhe was found sitting on the eggs
she had laid in a squirrel’s nest in
a Scotch fir tree 'at a height of six
teen feet from the ground.
For the remaining eleven days of
her incubation the hen was watched
descending and ascending from
bough to bough to her high perch,
at first every day once, but latterly
once every other day, as far as could
be observed.
On Thursday, May 22, the hen
was found with six live chickens
and two dead ones at the foot of
the tree. Unluckily no one wit
nessed the actual descent. She
could not, however, he persuaded to
enter an ordinary hen coop.
With some trouble the hen and
her six chickens were got eventual
ly on to some straw in an old rail
way carriage, which I had erected
some years ago on the edge of the
hen run, which is sheltered from the
north wind b}' a fir plantation,
where. many squirrels build their 4
nests.
In order to convey her chickens
from the railway carriage to the
ground the hen was seen to ^spread
out her tail and descend with all
six young chickens at once on her
hack. Doubtless she had conveyed
them down the sixteen feet from the
fir tree in the same fashion, but
probably only one or two at a time.
