A Popular Account of a Simple Bat Won- | derful Organism. So small are the bacteria, and so simple in their structure and activities, that it has not been an easy task for Scientific men to decide whether they belonged among animals or plants. It is now definitely settled, however, that they are plants, and are closely related to the alge. The bacteria vary a good dealin shape. but in general they are either spheroidal or ovoidal, like a billiard-ball or an egg: or rod-shaped, like a lead-pencil; or spiral-shaped, like a cork-screw. They are generally so very small t we can hardly form a concep except by comp h hat tion of them some well- on W One of most Cor mon of bacteria is a little rod, so small that if you were to put 1 of them end the the across the head of an ordinary If you look at them with a magnif} be applied to him, it would make a man look about four times as big as Mount Washington, they do not look larger than this. Wecan make out, however, that they are made up of a slightly granular material surrounded by asome- what denser envelope. The bacteria appear under the microscope as pale | translucent bodies, and the student usu- ally finds it necessary, in order to see their outlines distinctly, to stain them | with some one of the aniline dyes—red, or blue, or violet—when they become very distinct. Warmth, moisture, oxygen and a cer- tain amount of organic matter are re- quired for the existence of the bacteria. So rapid is the process of reproduction that a single germ by this process of growth and subdivision may give rise to more than 16,500,000 of similar organisms within twenty-four hours. It has been calculated by an eminent biologist that, if the proper conditions could be maintained, a little rod-like bacterium, which would meas- ure only about a thousandth of an inch in length, muitiply in this way, would in less than five da make a mass which would completely fill as much space as is occupied by all the oceans on the earth’s surface, supposing them to have an average depth of one mile. There is really very little erence, far as wholesomeness is concerned, be- tween the few thousand vezetable cells, called bacte which may be clinging to the surface of ag and a few hun- dred vegetable cells of ger size of which the grape itself is composed.

About 85 per cent. of the product of Great Britian is consumed in the king- dom, the balance being shipped to the continent, to the Mediterranean, and the East. The number of persons employed in and about the mines of Great Britian | and Ireland in round numbers is 525,000, of whom about five thousand are women employed above ground cleaning the coal before it is dumped into the rail- road cars, and doing, in fact, all the la- bor required by men. The wages earned by the women is from 30 to 36 cents a day. Until recent years they were em- ployed underground; but the miners, through constant agitation, had an act of Parliament passed compeling their withdrawal from underground, and there is every prospect of an act of Par- liament to prevent their employment about the mines. The miners’ from ma few hundred ness wages | range an ay e of 50 cents (in some localities) a day to $1.12a day in | Durham and Northumberland, where they are said to receive the highest wages.

With all the paraphernalia of modern physical and electrical lab tory, the instruments of precision that will handle a millionth ofan inch as y as a laborer his pick and shovel; with all the evolution going on through generations of scientists. and the al- most incessant wrestling of secrets from the bosom of nature, we doubtif science is any closer to the isolation or attenua- | tion of the microbe of the magnet. It is absurd to suppose that a primary en- ergy is impressed upon a piece of hard- ened steel once for ail. The transfer of that energy in:o actual work would de- stroy the magnetic power, yet such de- struction not only does not take place, but the very exercise of the power strengthens the magnet. A horseshoe of steel may be magnetized inten seconds by the current of a few amperes from a battery, a ridicuously small amount of A Mystery the energy all told, and such mag- net can lift many pounds of iron in contact.
