leaves no reason for doubt as to his psis

I claim not for the lower animals the elighte
equality With man. What I claim for them is
higher status in creation than is generally
tributed to them. I claim for them a future
where ttley will receive a just compensation f
the sufferings which so many of them have to
dergo in, this world. Most of the cruelties wbi

STALE BREAD AND NEW.
Indigestion Should Not Walt Upon
One More Than the Other.
New bread is well known to be'less' di-
gestible than stale bread, although it need
not be so. There can be no question,
however, of the vastly superior flavor of
the former, and hepce the preference of
many people for hot rolls for breakfast,
So far the palate would appear not to be
a safe guide to digestion. Hot rolls, how-
ever, when meeticated properly should
not ()ger hey difficulty to the digestive
organs. A :lice of stale bread on being
broken with the teeth .resolves into more
or less hard, gritty particles which, unless
they were softened by the, saliva, would
be almost impossible to swallow, 'The
particles would irritate the throat and
the gullet. The fact is, therefore, .that
man is compelled thoroughly to masticate
and to imprognate stale bread with saliva
before he swallows it. This act, of course,
partially digests the bread and thus makes
it In a fit state for digestion and absorp-
tion farther on in the alimentary tract.
This Is why stale bread appears to be
more digestible than new bread.
New bread, on the contrary, Is soft,
doughy or plastic, and there appears to
be no necessity to soften.it with saliva;
hence it escapes the preliminary digestive
action of the ptyalin of the saliva.. New'.
brad, In other words, is in reality "bolt-
ed," and "bolting" accounts for many of
the ills arising from dyspepsia. Accord-
ingly bot rolls should be enjoyedfor
breakfast without fear of dyspepsia so.
long as the bread is good and so long as
pains are taken to masticateit thorough-
ly.
When a dog isgiven a piece of meat,

Is not much reason why it•ahould stay in.
the mouth, for the mouth, beyond reduc-
ing_It by the aid of the teeth to a conven
lent mass, cannot deal with its digestion.
But if the dog be given a piece of bread,
supposing he eats it at all, he will keep
it in his mouth for some time:and will
almost labor over it before swallowing it.
The dog thus teaches a. very important.
physiological lesson.
It le a curious fact that stale bread is
not more dry than new bread, :for on
submitting stale bread for 'a short time
to a high temperature It regains its con-
dition of newness and becomes soft or
plastic, and this in spite of the fact that.
some moisture is of necessity driven off
In the operation. ' It Is probable that in
new bread there is free water present,
while in stale bread the water is 'still
there, but in a condition of true chem-
ical combination, and it Is this combina-
tion which compels us thoroughly to
moisten and to masticate stale bread be-
fore we consign it to the gastric cegters,

Ancient Hookkeepini,3 Methods.
The collection of Assyrian and Baby
onion records at the British museum has
evealed more of the domestic life of pec-
le who lived 5,000 years ago than is
own in the case of our own country-
en 1,000 years ago. Such- was ;the opin-
ion expressed by Mr.W. St. Chad Bos-
cawen when he explained these relics • to
an interested audience. The clay bricks
and cylinders beneath the glass cases
were covered with characters. testifying
to a completely organized system of jus-
tice,'marriage, divorce and commerce.
The bookkeeping of 5,000 years ago
was shown to be wonderfully accurate. A
curious form of record is that preserved
In the form of baked clay tablets, which
were inclosed in clay envelopes, also In-
scribed with the terms of the transac-.
tion, so that a double record, provided

Jeremiah issupposed to refer to this sys-
tem. The practice' of recording on a
brick the name of the king, of the build-

erected has had the advantage in mod-
ern days that an odd brick may become
the means of disinterring a city hitherto

deft patting of the hands that is often
heard as one walks past humble Mexican

Plant Seneltiveness.
A French investigator finds that plants
are sensitive to certain poisons in quanti-
ties so minute that they completely baffle
chemical analysis. For Instance, a plant
showed the effects of sulphate of copper
dissolved • in 700,000,000,000 times its
weight of water—a state of dilution •
to scarcely Imaginable, much less detectible
by ordinary methods. This raises the
presumption that the character of the
at vegetation of a country may depend on
minute quantities of Male substances
