The poison oak is a woody shrub, that grows to the height of three feet or less; the ivy, a vine thee climbs on stone walls and. trees. The leaves of both are trifoliate; that is,. they consist of three leaflets; common ivy has five. It is a sufficient protection to avoid every trifoliate woody plant. Many poisons originate in chemical combinations. Thus oxygen and nitrogen, mechanically combined, constitute the air we breathe.; but combined chemically, in a ceetain proportion, they form nitroue oxide, or laughing gas; combined in another proportion, nitric acid. Fresh,meat may be made poisonous in various ways. The animal may have fed on noxious plants • or it may have been sick before being slaughtered, and the poison may be duo to powerful medicines adminis- tered ; or it may have been affected with a contagious disease, say, pleuro -pneumonia. Tainted meat also develops cheardoallO a very violent poison.

The extent of the opium habit is not .to be fixed by careful inquiry. The record of the importation of opium to the United States shows a steady and large increase. in 1878, 1879, and 1880 the'imported opimel reached 207,752 pounds, 278,554 pounds, and 370,000 pounds.

Coneul-O' eneaal Bonham at Caleatte, British India, treete at length of the wheat intereste of that country. The area devoted to wheat in 1886 was about 27,500,000 scree, and the total yield 289,000,000 bushels. Aa compared with the wheat c4 the Pacifie coast, .the Ladian wheat is inferior, but when exported to Europe it is mixed and ground with wheat of a superior quality, by which process a fair marketable grade of flour is obtaicted. The method of cultivating the soil is in the main the eagle as it was ceritutiee ago, and there seems to be greet difficulte, iu inducing the farmer to hevest in modern agricultural implements, and yet with all the sitopie and primitive methodthe In- dium farmers can, in the opinion of the Con. sul. General, Meet:eel ally compete with those of the United btats in the productiou of wheat. This is due to the fact that the Indian farmer's outfit represents a capital of not more than $40 or $.19, and his hired help works, feeds, and clothes hicomelf on about 82 50 a month. A talele is annexed, showing that the export of wheat from Britiell India has increased from 300,001 ewt in 1868 to 21,000,000 cwt, in 1889, and that the increase of 188C over 1885 amounte to about 5,000,000 cwt.

Dr. Turner, of London, England, has made a study of diphtheria and has embodied the results of hie enquiries in a report to the Local Government Board of London. He says : etAlmose nothing is with certainty known of the beginning of diphtheria though much has been learned respecting conditions favoring its spread and. something, perhaps, of influences fostering its virulence " Among the influences" tending to enhance the severity of diphtheria," he mentions " over -crowd- ing, badly trappecl,drains, damp ',vans and floors." The saturation of the soil tinder the dwelling _with fecal matter, or with water contammated by excrement, he has found to be a condition especially fa,vorable to gm development of the diocese in its mostliVefonn. It in, however, with cases "for which neither personal communication nor see of the above conditione can be assigned as the probable cause" that he deals in his report, as well as " with broad clinical and pathological resemblances between the maladies of lower animals and diphtheria in the human subject." Pigeons, chickens, swine, horses, cats and sheep suffer from a disease resembling diphtheria in all it's symptoms. Children and. others who have come in contact with them have been taken ill with diphtheria, and animals have been observed to be suffering from the dis aue‘tiome time after being handled by ° suffering from or recovering from di theria. Dr. Turner's observations lead to the conclusion that many of the inysterious cases of diphtheria. yvhich occur in places where the sanitary conditions are good, and where there are no human beings from whom the disease could be caught, have their origin in contact with animals ill of the disease. Several remarkable cases are mentioned by Dr. Turner of persons having to all appearance caught diphtheria from lower animals, and of animals catching the disease from humaai beings. The enquiry is an important as well as an interesting one and likely to lead to beneficial results. emeessziesseweeexwea---, Exoursiona in Paris Sewers. and frequency of the pulse augments the Eiceursione through the gorgeous sewers of temperature of the skin, 'invigorates the Paris --.strange as this conjunction of noun muscular system, quickens the senses, ani. and adjective must sound -are now all the mates the spirits, and gives new energy to rage in the fashionable world of the city. the intellectual faculties.

Sometimes it is only, or mainly, the muscles of the jaws that are affected in the diseaee, but conemonly elle rigid condition is much more extensive, often reaching to most of the miracles of the body. In its severer formeif Is one of the most terrible of diseases. The Veind generally remains clear to the last, mass it is blunted by opiates. The disease begins by a pinched look of the face. In a few hours the muscles of the jaws, neck, back, and chest become rigid, and the rigidity ab length extende to the limbs. This rigidity is permanent, and some- times is so great that the body could be tak- en up like a stick of timber or it may rest its weight open its head and feet. .From time to time spasms occur, lasting a few seconds, or several minutes. The seat of trouble is in the nerves, and hence a spasm may be brought on by a slight noise, a touch, or even a breath of air. As the muscles of respiration are usually tef affected, the breathing is greatly im. peded, and often for the time rendered wholly impossible, the chest 'being held as in a vise. Death frequently results from this cause, the system being previously ex. ha,usted by pain and lack of sleep and nour- ishtnent. If the patient survives beyond the twelfth day., he is likely to reeover ; -but no medicine is able to do more than pro Ik2Ote sleep and benumb the sensibilities. The cause is unknown. It may follow wounds or be independent of wounds, the latter being the most hopeful cases. The wounds may be eovere or slight, but most wounds are not followed by tetanus, It in probable that, in persons of a peculiar ner voile misceptibility, and under certain not well understood conditions, a poison is do. veloped within the system, Hence,. the only hope of a cure is to eustain the patient with etimultents, nouriehment, and sleep tug' the system cam eliminate the.poison.

An officer mimed Telengo hearing two of the soldierfi of his company quarreling about a money debt, called them before him and questioned them respecting their unruly conduct. They resented his interference and were flogged for insubordin- ation.

The officer Telengo himself adinin' istered 10 of the strokes intlicthd on. Yu ch'eng, be- cause he considered. that he was further 're- ported *0 the General for further disciplin- ary treatment. Here even Celestial endu- rance was at an end. The man effectually ran away this time; he found permanent oblivion in an overdose of opitun. Then the officer Telengo was tried. He was found guilty of inflidting excessive puniehment and sentenced to be flogged. Ninety blows, or half those inflicted on Yu-nh'eng, were order- ed.
