Business Immorality.
All kinds of deception practised
upon others for pereonal advantage are
as forbidden as they are frequent. In
a shop window an article is ticketed,
at a certain prion. You -enter the
shop and are • shown another article
similarsbut inferior, Which, with many
assertions and protestations, is declined
to be identical in quality. You see an
'advertisement of special bargains," in
consequence of a, bankruptcy, Or fire, :or
a wreck, and while the initiated pass
it by with a smile, some, for whose be-
hoof it Was placed there, lia,ve no suspicion that it , is a he. You purchase
a piece of calico warranted thirty-six
yards, which measures thirty-one • and
a piece of tape measuring ffteen
yards which is warranted eighteen.
Herbert Spencer tells the story of one
manufacturer who, hesitating to foll yw
his custom, had his goods raurned te
hint, and finally, as a great favor, he
was Permitted to satisfy his scrupulous
conscience by seeding in blank labels.
It is argued: "All this is understood in
the trade, and price is lowered in con-
sequence, so that no harm arises."
Bet what does- that mean? It means
that at first some unscrupulous man-
ufacturer reduced the length warrant-
ed, and so made unjust profit till he
was detected ;• • others, finding them-
selves Unable to compete with him,
were compelled to follow his example,
the weakest men first, the strongest
last, until- the practice became tacitly
allowed. But how that diminishes
the immorality of the practice we fail
to see. Examples Of deception might
be adduced, however, which have not
even that flimsy excuse. A clever
*salesman will sometimes present sam-
ples in such an order as..to. .disqualify
the eye, or the taste; or even the
touch of the purchaser; or, assuming
an air of singular • honesty, he will
point out defects in the first purchases,
till, having won the confidence of the
customer, he abases it by passing off
inferior goods. Itt all such acts the
sin lies in the deception of the more
ignorant and weak. If you sell milk
and water,- or . shoddy, as mach, no
wrong is done I but if the one is sold.
as cloth, and the other as milk,then the
very sin is committed of "selling the
refuse for wheat," on account of which.
• Amos threatened punishment from an
offended God. Such deceit doesnot
prevail only • in trade transactions
The barrister commits it who takes
his fee for siork he. does.not mean to
to do, or adyances a pleain court which
he knows to be 'invalid. The candi-
d.a.te for municipal or parliamentary
elections coinmits it when .he makes
promises which will never be fulfilled
to gain the suffrages of ,the electors.
The politician is guiltyof it if he keeps
the people in ignorance till their pas-
sions and pride are sufficiently roused
to impel them to an uneighteous course,
from which a false sense of humor
-will not allow them to draw back. .All
such offences stand. Condemned at the
'bar of God, by the great and changeless
law. "Thou shalt love thy neighbor as
thyself."—Snaday at Boole. .
- - The Poison Of Serpents. •
M. DeQuatrefages presented to tlee
Academy of Scienee at its last sitting a,
note from M. Lacerda, relative to. some
researches he had been making at R:o
de Jalleit-Q into the action of the venom
of the rattlesnake. Hitherto the gen-
eral belief has:been-that the poisonous
matter secreted by certaiu species of
reptiles were nething more than a
poisonous saliva, acting in the manner
as soluble ferments. His investigation 3,
however, show that the matter in ques-
tion contains what ie called figured fer-
ments, the analogy of • which with ban-
terides is very -remarkable.
From a young and vigorous crotalus,
.subjected to the -action, of chloroform,
he obtained a drop of the venom on a
chemically clean piece of glass, and at
once placed it under a microscope. Al-
most immediately he observed the for-
atiou of a filamentous pulp of aa
arborescent disposition. Graduany the
thickened filament, after having push-
ed out. Spores, dissolved and disap-
pearecrand the liberated spores !swell-
ed and enlarged visibly, each of them
sending out a minute tube, which
lengthened rapidly. After a very short
period the later separated from • th'
first spore and constituted another 11
cleus for engendering the deadly co
ta,niin alien.
In -the examination of the bleed
animals killed'by the bite of one
those snakes, M. Lacerda noticed -tha
the red globule of the blood commence
by • presenting some small brillian
points on the stirface which pread wit t
great rapidity, and ultimately the lo
bules melted. one into the other; • form
ng a sort of amorphous paste, whiz
could no longer circulate in .the veins
Other animals in which that blood wa,
njected immediately after the deat
of the first, expired in a few hours, pre
senting all the syneptome of ha,vin
themselves been bitten, and their bloo
always showed the same alteration
M. Lacerda concludes by 'statin:
hat numerous experiments ha,v
hewn that the true -antidote fo
erpent poisoning is the injection un
der the skin of ' alcohol, or its adminis
ration by thcp mouth.—Gralienarall.

How to See the Wind.
Much advice has been given as t
