The cremes are filled in with sand and
coarse cement over which le laid plaster,
and thus the walls and arcbed roofs of the

The tight otthe Future,
Theprimery fault of ail our lights, electric
i
lieht nchlece, is that there Is so great a
waste of enerey iu the form of heat. The
glowworhitl,e firefly, and a multitude of
other anitsialeehow that light may be obtain-
ed withant any more heat than that of the
animal body, and without any such danger
as that so terribly displayed in the burning
of theatres. Radziszewski found that an-
imallight isdue to theoxidation of,two kinds
of organic matter, one containing hydrocar.
bon and the other aldehydes, or something
yielding aldehydes when treated with alkalis.
The isolation of these compounds is but
another step, and their application, both of
them being steps that are but a:nail compar.
ed with many that have been made in the
chemistry of the generation. All our exist-
ing artificial lights have another common
fault. They are concentrated foci of glare.
But for its cost the best of ell is the wax
or paraffin candle. A room liEhted with 20
candles, well distributed, is incomparably
better lighted than by one 20 -candle gas
electriolight ; with the luminous up-
holstery I suggested the diffusion would be
still more complete than with the candles,
it would correspond as nearly as possible to
diffused daylight, end might be made to
produce most charming artistic effects.
Poison for some animals is food for others.
Hogs can eat henbane or hyocyamue, which
is fatal to dogs and nmet other animals.
Dogs and horses are noteasily poisoned with
arsenic. Goats eat water hemlock with
impunity; plteaeants, stramonium; rabbits,
belladonna.. and morphia is said to be inno-
cuous to pigeons. There is eome truth in
the old saying that " what is one man's
meat is 'another man's poison," This is due
to habits and idiosyncrasies.
What London and Paris Eat.:
In London and Paris the annual average
consumption a head of population is stated
to be as follows, the greater quantity in each
being credited to the Parisian: Apples, 65
pounds and 6 ounces -145 pounds; pears, 39
pounds and 5 ounces -170 pounds and 13
ounces; peas, 3 pounds 8 ounces -6 pounds
and 15 ounces; carrots, 7 pounds .and 3
ounces -37 pounds; celery, 11 ounces -6
pounds 13 ounces; cherries, 2 pounds and
13 ounces -20 pounds and 14 ounces; plums
and damsons, 17 pounds and 12 ounces -183
pounds and 4 ounces; raspberries, 4 ounces
2 pounds; strawberries 3 pounds and 10
ounees-13 pounds and 12 ounces; asnera-
gus, 1 pound and 3 ounces -5 pounds and
4 ounces.
On the other hand, while the Londoners
eat 173 pounds 4 ounces of potatoes, the.
Parisian eats only 49 pounds and 4 ounces.
The averege consumption of onions, toma-
toes,
cabbages, members and turnips is also
greater in London than in Paris; but with
these exceptions the French are by fax the
largest consumers of fruit and vegetables—
