QUININE'S HISTORY. H Bow It Use Sapplanted tho O0 Ires P practiao of ineooding. An important epoch in the career of Dr. Maillot, a distinguished French Ii physician, who died in Paris lately at ti the ago of ninety-nino years, illus- ) trated tho great timidity of medical ve belence in taking up a new method of u treatment or abandoning an old one. b< Dr. Maillot is knoWn to the medical fa world as the practical introducer into be French practico of the use of quinine pr en the treatment of malarial and other an evers. if In 1832, when the French were con- of ducting a campaign of conquest pu in Algeria, the mortality among )ni the troops and colonists there was be frightful, says Pearson's Weekly. ve: France was being continually called Wi upon for fresh levies of men and youths bri to supply this terrible loss, chiefly I through fever incidental to the cli- fro mate and the life the French in Al- get geria were leading. At that timkio the ren ractice of bleeding still prevailed. wil 'Bleed them until they are white," was fut the injunction which Broussals, tho coil medical master of the Frenclh, gavo to mu his followers when the condition of the pen soldier was reported to him. At Bone, per in one year, out of an effectivo force of his fifty-five hundred men, eleven hidred cei died of illness in the hospital. rul At that timo the effects of suilphate to < of quinine were known, but few phy- til sicians ventured to employ it. Maillot vii had interested iniself in the new T1 remedy, and, going to Ione in the sur medical service of the government, he ary resolved to see if it would not reduce ma the frightful mortality, which was one Wi. to every three and a half men who en- cia tored the hospital. A ilrst ho eiii- goo p loyed the quinine meroly its an id unct to tho bleeding. lIe soon found that bleeding was cilling tle mien and ison that quinine was saving them. Little by olittle 'ho left off bleeding, to the 11 great scandal of the med0(iiCIl profes- ind sion. Exactly in proportion as the ity bleeding coased the deItLhs in the 1108- Foi pital decreased. In two years the heti deaths fell off from one in three and a doo half of all who entered tho hospital to out one in twenty-six, and finally to one in is c forty-six. ray Maillot quite naturally enough grew )as, to be the opponent of bleeding, but h0 Kcg was so ceaselessly villified by muiemhiers nor of the medical professioI tht ie h0- a came embittered toward his colleagues. wa Nearly thirty years pa.sed before Mail- od, lot saw the coiplete triumph of his thu ideas. Doctors continued to bleed their wi patients heartily for all manner of ills. of But in 1860 Mlaillot was inado coin- fly mander of the Legion of Honor and mul chief of the medical staff of the French to , army, and his influence, with others, ate in bringing about a. virtual revolution ter in the practice of medicine was fully hgi recognized. for PEARLS ARE MANUFACTURED. T hei And Oysteri foxC 4io Purpose Are Exten- '4 sively Oultltated in Chiioso WVaters. 13 The cultivation of the pearl oyster PI has for years been carried on with bC reat success in the bay of Ago, in ca1 Japan, under direction and restriction 11 of governmental supervision. The proc- anl ess of nature is, however, too slow for na modern requirements. A Frenhnian ho has been boring holes in the shells of ab pearl oysters and introducing therein PN small glass beads and stopping up the su holes with coric. In six months lie has pure surface pearls with a glass founda- F tion. The nacre of the pearl mollusks No1 varies in color, according to its loca tion, and almost any color of pearl, as 'j white, black, pink, or gray, can read- cox ily be produced by lodging the nucleus sic: on the appropriato part of the mol- of husk's body. Thie Chinese are wvonder- Tb fully expert in the manufacture of to pearls. They introduce small balls of earth inside the pearl mussel by very 0 delicately opening the shell and plac- Ir ing the nuclei under the miouth of the hJi animal and allowing the shell to closo. ant This initial process occurs in May or tw June; the mussels are then deposited Co: in canals or pools and in November the fum mollusks arc opened, the pearls re- !tel moved, holes bored therein, the nuclei ifum extracted, the hocllowv pearl filled with sti melted resin and the orifice skillfully ar filled with mother of pearl. T1heso er Chinese pearls are flat on the bottom 'car and are nearly hqmispherical in shape- car Pearls can be made of almost any d(-0, to: sired shade or color by chemical means. tio, The black p earl, for instance, is indcli- Icor~ bly colored ini a bath of nitrate of dil silver. fan Pearls being partly of anial sub- but stance are subject to deterioration and orat decay, and nione of the famous pecarl~s in of to-day can be traced back man'y *ro generations. i Duchos and Parrot.

Learned Lore on the Ohronology of Cycle Abstrusoly St Fortl. Take down your 1804 almanac an< after wading through celipso tables rules for finding the greatest elonga Lion of polaris, tablo of ember days etc., you will find a double column ol #our lines ea0h entitled "Chronological cycles," says an exchange. The first thing in that table is this; "(1) Domin. ical or Sunday letter, G." That tells you very little, to be sure, but it is really something valuable in the way of keeping track of chronology, pro viding you know how to use it. Find ing the dominical letter will enable one to tell what day of the week any given date in the year is: and, further, the dominical letter being known for any one year, can be found for any other by simply remombering that an ordinary year has fifty-two weeks and one day; a leap year fifty-two weeks and two days. I The rule is that the letter which falls against the first Sunday in January falls against every Sunday in that year, unless it be a leap year, in which case there are always two doininical let ters. The whole problem reverts to a simple calculation in arithnetlc. To the number of the year add one-quar ter of itself (negleotinig fractions) and divide the same by seven, then, for the nineteenth century, subtract the ro mainder from eight, or if it i, 0, from one, and the now remainder will Indi cate the placa of the dominical letter in the alphabet. For the eighteenth century subtract from seven; for the ,eventeenth, and on back to 1582, th - year the Gregorian ealendar was adopted, subtract from six, or if the remainder be six, from thirteen. For dates previous to 1582 subtract from three, or if the remain der be three, from ten. But the do ninical letter thus obtained for a leap yeat belongs only to the time follow lng February 29, and for the previous two months it will be for the succeed ing lotter in tie alphabet. This new remainder is also the date of the first Sunday in January for that year. The same (late in February will fall on Wednesday; in March on Wednes dayl in April on Saturday, etc.; a's may be scen from the fact that the first days of the twelve muon ths have an nexed to .them In the calendar the in itials of the words: "At Dover dwells George Brown, Esquire, Good Chris topher Finch and David Friar." Take this as a sample example; The day of the week upon which New York was incorporated, June 12. 10(15, is thus found: 1605 added to 410, one-quarter of itself, divided by seven, eqlwls 297, with a remnindor of two; and it being in the seventeenth century, six minus two equals four, which shows that the dominical letter for that year was the fourth in the alphabet, or ). Then, as June bogins with 1, J-une 1, 16435, was Monday, and June 12 was a Friday. A DASHING COUNTESS. She Jumps Iler Horn Over a Dinin g Talo. A late sensation in Paris was the re sult of a novel bot made between two leading lights-of the fashionable jockey club n that city. It came about in this way. 'During a dinner given in honor of the winner of the grand autumn races, the guests began to toll stories of flue horsemanship. An elderly of ficer present said that he thought the young mesm of the generation did not ride so well as they did in the good old days. This lod to an animated dispute, which ended by M~ax Lebaudy oil'ering to bet that lhe kcnew a lady rider that could do anything with a horse that any man of this or any othe~r genera tion had done. The old officer accepted soo bet, stip ulating that the lady should ride her horse into the banquet hall, anid take a flying leap over the table without dis turbing or touching the wvine bottles, flowcrs or any thing else on the table. Nobody dreamed that the bet wvould be accepted. It was done, howvever, and next even ing, wvh'n the sameo party waus gathered around the festive boar-d, tihe event took place. The world famous eques trienne,Camilla von Wahlburg,miounated on her favorite full-blooded Arabian horse, and attired in thme reguar- rid ing habit, suddenly appeared in: the door of the dining-room. With a cheery "Good evening, gentlemen," she gave the spur to her animal, and, before the thoroughly surprised and amazed dlin ers had time to collect their thoughts, she had been carried over the talo in the most graceful and approved fashion by her spirited horse. Not even the filled wvine glasses were jarred, and Max won his bet, and the crowd did homage to and toastedl the dashing equestrienne. ONLY A DIME.

THE END OF BOOKS. Limainess of the Alaterials Now Used s Their Construction. It has been pointed out by M. Delisle, brarlan of the Biblotheque Nationale, Lat paper Is now made of such inferior aterials that it will soon rot, and ry few of the books now published mvo the chance of a long life. The oks of the present day will all have lion to pieces before the middle of ixt contu'y. The gefnuine linen tag per was really calculated to last, d even the oldest books printed on it, kept with duo care, show very little the efect of time; but the woe p paper now largely used, in t Sing of which powerful acids hav6 3n employed, is so flimsy that the y ink corrodes it, and tino alone, bh the most careful handling, will ng on rapid decay.

HEAT AND LIGHT. ke Curlous Fncts Regarding Their Re lations to Each Other. 'he rays of heat and light are quite opendent of each other in their abil to penetrate different substances. illustration, glass allows the sun's t to pass through as readily as it a the rays of light, and that with heating the glitss, too. If the glass mated with limphltcc, however, the R of light are tirrested, but the heat sea through as before, not a singi1 'reo's diTerenceo in the latter phe aenoi being noticeable. Then, iu, both heat and light pass through ter providing it is clear. One of the litles in Ihis connection is this: Al ugh the ieat and light pass through tcr in its normal state, the addition a little powderod alum (which read dissolves without leaving the least rkiness) will arrest the rays of heat meh an extent as to almost immedi ly raise the tomperature of the wa to ia pereeptible degree, yet the it continues to pass through as be ae, like glass, also transmits both it and light.
