Whether buried in a pyramid of rice, served with wine sauce, or roasted pure and simple, the noble bird came gamely up to the scratch and knocked out quail, grouse, reed-birds aud frogs without halt trying. “I ind that THE BEST MANNER OF COOKING these birds for serving on toast is to lard the breast and legs, puta piece of salt pork over each breast, and tle it in place. Cook ten minutes in a quick oven, and garnish with parsiey.” “I have eaten quall on toast In every first- ¢lass hotel in Cineinnati,” pat in Mr. Blank, with his mouth full of the delicate morsel which he was about to praise, “and—although, per- haps, the assertion does not come from me with Very good grace, seeing that it is my own din- ner which I extol—I have never tasted anything to equal the toasted sparrow. “I like the bird—when he {s dead. There are no two ways about that fact. He Is a good bird—when he is dead. I understand that there will be a meeting of American ornithologists In Washington pretty soon to discuss ‘the eligi- bility or non-eligibility’ of this bird in America. I wish I could testify before them. I would de- clare that he is highly eligible to the best place in our aifectlons—when he ts dead.” There is no gainsaying the fact that It was a good dinner—not wholly made up of 8] of course—but none the less owing its excel- lence in great part to the bird which gave it its name. en it is known that ten dozen Eng- lish sparrows yielded up their lives for that one 1 set the phial im boiline wate eraching of the phial by exposui . use a thin yreen glass ste: few seconds be of brilliant dyes, n chilly splendor Les: ule © and drop the ps know'st how to spread; let ft fall ids from foot to head: ris most sacred sirine, therly was sit with the family, waiting off to bed, when Miss ittle brother: J you aPe tov heavy to eit on Mr. rly's knee.” Featherly?

CHOLERA GERMS, The Germ Theory and the Experiments of Dr. Koch. Writing from Alexandria on the 17th of Sep- tember, after declaring that there can be no doubt that the epidemic in Egypt was really one of cholera, Dr. Koch say: “On examining the bodies of the victims no traces of living organisms have been found in the blood, the liver, the lungs, the spleen, the kidneys, and other organs which are usually affected with germ di Now and then it happened that bacteria were discovered in the lungs, which, howe with the course of the the 1 through in tions. In the content: well as in the ejections of cholera patients, great miasses of yarious kinds of organ isms were discovered, none of which, how- ever, could be said to exceed the others in numbers, nor were there any other signs from which it might be concluded that they had any relation to the course of the dis- ease. One important result was obtained from the examination of the intestines. In all cases, with the exception of one ig which death had occurred several weeks after the cure from cholera. a certain kind of bacteria was discov- ered in the wails of the intestines. These rod- like bacilli resemble those found in horses dis- eased with glanders. In cases where the slight- was visible in the intestines the ba- cilli bad penetrate ito the glands of the thin ation of cireular cells A great number hind the jor of the Ho had on epitielinn of the it and the enum sides this, @ on the sur Poof the vill r s had pene- trated tueir tissues. In bad eases, where the glandular mucous membrane was invaded by a bloody infitvation, the bacilli were found in large nt were not confined to the invasion of the utricular glands, but had pene- ed into the surrounding tissue atum of the mucous membrane, and some- s even into the m ular skin ot the intestines. ‘The villl of the intestines wer also in such cases covered with bacilli. The principal, seat ot these changes Is in the lower part of the small Intestines. If this discovery hid not been made on fresh corpses it would have deen entirely useless, the intlu- ence of decay being sutticient to produce simi- lar bacterian growth in the Intestines, * * * The number of bodies dissected by Dr. Koch 1s small, but as the bacilli have becn found in all fresh corpses of cholera patients, and were net to be found where death was caused by other diseases, there remains no doubt that they stand In some relation to the development of cholera, Nevertheless, the fact that the bacilli have been found in the Intestines in cases of choiera does not prove that they are the cause of the disease. Whether the assumption is correct that the process of infection or the invasion of bacteria is primary, can only be decided by the attempt to extract the bacteria froin the diseased tissues, to rear them in an uninfected place, and to’ attempt tie reproduction of the disease by the infection in the deeper of animals. For this purpose it Is necessary to have the disposal of such aniinals as are suscep- infection by the germs. Hitherto such not been found, ments on rabbits, culnea keys, and others end all experi- tained in the excreta ot cholera patients has 1 proved L particularly by the quent it washed the med with certainty t some of the experiments which n tried have led to the identification of mot the disease, If as yet no con- results have been obtained, the cause that those animals on which the were altogether un that the correct wa Th that ot h have be the clusiy may have be riment tible to anything further will be dis improbable that the of the fail tion. here Is still another explanation. It well known that ina place atta 3 by cholera the disease disappears lone before every indi- vidual been infected, and that although the germ of the disease is, after some tine, diffused over the whole place, the num- ber of patients —_diminis! more and more, and the epidemic disappears while tl are yet a nuinber of persons sus- ceptible to” infection. This can plained by the assumption t of te epidemic the cholera gerins become tive, or at lei then, men are no longer towards the end of the epidemic, it is not to be expected that animals should be more suscepti- big@ an men, especially as it is not know veth they are at all liable to cholera. re yet from the entire solu- and little as the results ob- aid in subduing the chol- the unfavorable circumstances and the short time in which they had to be gathered. ‘They answer perfectly to the original idea, and even xo beyond; for by the constant discovery of characteristi¢ micro-organisms the first con- dition which has to be fulfilled in cases ot infec- tious disease has been satistied.” gee An Autumn Scene. ‘The dead leaves fall like noiseless ra! ‘The alr ts ¢ nd warm, and 51 Upon the woo: nd the plain he he ghost of rests her feet.

From the Loudon Times, Sy ee Palace ot Justice at Brussels, one of the est aud m remarkable constructions of modern times, was recently opened with be- coming sulemnity. The palace, placed in a com- manding situation in the most elevated part of the town, was commenced in 1866. The cele- brated architect, M. J. Poelaert, who made the p!s@ ad directed the work, has, unfortunate- ly, not seen its completion. Since his death, in 1879, the works have been directed by M. Wel- lens, | -gineer in the service of the government. M. Pc aert did not adopt any determined style, but made use for his magnificent structure of Greek. Roman, and even, especially as regards the outline, of Indian models. The result is considered ‘a glorious one for his memory and for the country. but it has only been obtained at a cost of 45.000,000f. Very large sums will be required for the transformation of the quarter surrounding the palace so as to give it @ frame ma ne it. The palace by itself covers 26,000 squa{ neters. By adding the squares and’ as- cents and descents which had to be created, a total of 60,000 square meters, which were neces- sary for the construction, is arrived at. The central hall measures 300 square meters, and is 85 meters high, while its roof opens into a gilt crown ¢erminating ina cupola atahelght of 973¢ mete:/ The palace contains besides 27 large and 2+, smaller halls for the different services, and eight court-yards. All the paccipal halls are most richly decorated. ‘he materials which have been employed in the construction and decoration are the most durable which could be provided by money, after a most com- prehensive stray of the matter. The building is, indeed, p,most indestructible, and will trans- mit the nase of Poelaert to the most distant times, The outside height up to the crown on the cupola is 118 meters. From whichever side one mw approaches Brussels this colossal buildi} presents itself, dominating the town and su.ceading country. Critics, of course, find fault with this and that, but on the splendid success of the great enterprise as a whole Bel- gium must be congratulated. + Farm Ballad. ‘Na more the reaper mutilates, e thresher chews no ars; ‘N@ more the boiler populates the Rong-drawn howls now heard each day oer 1 from men with ngers caught cider and sorghum ‘Th; X beli Miss Mrs. ‘Chamberlain, the American peste y) is Gas eect clo ree ek ed Ke lelaide ion, who is chapero! y wouchere.

Clara Bridgeman, in aletter from Mexico to the New Orleans Times, writes enthusiastically of the School of Arts and Trades for Women, established there some years ago by President Juarez: As it ts, however, Mexico could not farnish a more interesting and attractive sight than this school when it is in operation with all the work- shops crowded with busy students and such a hum andstir of bustling activity that one Is irre- ristibly reminded ofa yast beehive. There are troops of dark-eyed maidens on every side cheerfully engeged in all manner of occupa- tions, and one hardly knows which to admire most, the deftness with which they perform their various tasks or the exquisite neatness of their appearance, with faces and clothes spot- sly clean, hair sm oothly braided, and all with cholland aprons that giveto them a partic idy look. ‘The school numbers abou ttendants ng in age from girls of women ¢ The govern ment not ont ariety of in: struction free of charge, but likewise provides all thet and apparatus for work, two substantial meals each day, and the ‘linen aprons. Moreover it allows them to dispose of what they make and for that purpose A PRETTY LITTLE STORE Is attached to the school building, where all such articles may be exposed for sale. Further assistance Is furnished by government officials who give orders tor upholstery, bookbinding, and also clothing for the various charitable in- stitutions of the city.

The use of the church bell is often abused. On railroads passing through cities both bell and whstle are used far more than necessary, to the great annoyance of the Can we not have these acknowledged ances lessened or stopped? They are by no means a necessity. We recall an instance ex- aetly in pol When the new court house was built In this ¢ Lunerous members of the legal fraternity and others tnterested suggested that a large bell be paced in the tower, Chief Justice Durfee strongly objected. He said, in substance “There is no need :o add another to these al- ready too numerous public nuisances. Every person who has or will haye business in thes courts, has ample means, either by private watch or home or office or city clocks, of knowing the hour or day. Every such person, too, knows, or ought to know, the time when he is expected to be here on any given day. Nine times out of ten he would act on that knowledge and come here without regard toany court house bell. It 4s his duty to know wien he is needed here and to come at that time. [tis ridiculous to main- tain that intelligent kwyers must be summoned here daily, like 80 many school children, by a bell which tells themnothing which they do not already know. The yublic ought not to be thus imposed upon. It is to these sensible remarks of Chief Jus- tice Durfee that Providence owes the fact that it is not inflicted by the almost daily ringing of acourt house bell. The same objections apply to the bells and whisiles on factories or other places of work. Searcely a mechanic or laborer is there to-day who does not carry a watch, or have a clock in his home, or live within sight and sound of a public Indeed, the habit- ual man of business res and goes to his work, and goes to and from his meals, almost without ard to the scores 07 belis and whistles sound- ing about him, except occasionally to utter a fervent wish thatthe infernal racket would the se!

From the Philadelphia Cill. “That was a very biilliant wedding last eve- ning, and, by the wsy, the bride was an old flame of yours, was she not?” “Yes, the fickle, heartiess thing, as soon as that foreign count pat in an appearance she jilted me.” “TI gee by the papers that among the wedding présents were ten msgnificent clocks. Rather odd that so many different persons should hit on the same things fo: presents. But why are are you smiling?” “Ah! revenge is sweet! Revenge is sweet!” “What can you mean?” “Don't breathe a word and I'll tell you. Iam acquainted with most of that cruel flirt’s friends, and it so happened that nine of them not know- ing of my previous love came to me for sugges- uons about a wedding present. I confidentially advised each of themto send her a clock, and afterward I added another clock myself. Hal Ha! The villain still pursues her! I am avenged! avenged!” “Mercy! man, are you mad?” “Never was more sane in my life!” “Then how in the world can the presentation of ten valuable clocks constitute revenge?” “Hist! Can't you see?
