" How many ciyarelles will a per son have to buy to make them lead: a mile in length, if nnbnrncdV" asked a, Fulton Street dealer in to bacco of a reporter. "When told that life was too short to figure out such , conundrums, the young gentleman i stroked his handsome mustache and ' said: "This is an easy puzzle. Thir-j teen cigareues wm maKeayaru, ami as there are 1,700 vards iifa mile, it will lake L'2,SS0 bits of bleached paper containing a little tobacco lo measure out the distance of one mile. To smokers who use I'O cigaicttes a day it will take Ihem 1,111 days to accomplish the task, at a cost of 114.40. iSow, you tee how easily that problem is worked out," cai7l uio amiaoie oung man. ! "Is cigaiclte smoking on the in- I crease?' asked the icporter. "I am sony lo sav that it is, for a more pernicious passion does not cxil than the love for tobacco rolled up in this shape. The cigarette habit nuMiis death and destruction to those who bvcome wedded to this fatal habit, but what are we lo do? A bov will come in and ask for a cigar ette which cols him 1 cent. We don't sell to all boys, but there are pome whom we cannot refuse. A boy sent out of a factor' or shop by the woikmen lo buy tobacco for "their noonday smoke will skip our store and purchase goods elsewhere if we refuse lo sell him a lung-teaser for a cent. Of couise he has to be accom modated, or else, through his influ ence, we may lose the custom of 20 men. Now as to the incieasc. In the month of September just passed, 51,62o,7S0 pounds of tobacco weic made into cigarettes in New York City alone, against 40,210,140 pounds in the same month of 1SS4. For the year ending October 1, 1SS4, '541 ,915,750 pounds of tobacco were manufactured into cigarettes and the total number of pounds used in the same way the past year was .!?).', .'!7(;,0G'). Dining the same periods the iobacco turned into cigars wa3 00(1,434,451 pounds for 1SS1, and 001, 011,150 pounds for the year ending October 1 . 1SS5. It will thus be seen that while cigars have decreased 5,3fl,:J01 pounds, cigarettes have in creased during the year 51,410,490 pounds." " What is the cause of this wonder ful increase and decrease?" "Cigaiette smoking has the same effect on boys and young men as opium has on grov.ii ieop!e. The tobacco which the cigarettes are made of is so mild in taste that the smoke from them can be drawn on the lungs or inhaled, which, in time, will have an injurious effect upon the smoker. The inveterate cigarette smoker will icject a fine imported cigar for a cigarette, preferring the latter, which, in bundles, cost onlv a half a cent apiece. The price of the article ought in itself to be a sufficient proof that cigarettes are made out of common material, and cheap things aie always had. Some people imag ine that gum opium is used in cigar ettes, but this is a mistake, as that drug costs G a pound, which would be too expensive lo the cigarette manipulator. The white paper is bleached by an arsenical prepara tion, and that is poisonous enough, Heaven knows. Cigaicttes ought to be stamped out of existence, for they are sapping the life out of our voung men. Johnny Alorrissey, the "son of the ex-congressman and "prize-fighter, was killed by excessive cigarette smoking, and the youth of the land are falling by the wayside dav after day. Will you try one?" asked the young man, and when his invitation was politely refused, the affable cigarette dealer concluded his re marks by saying: "Your head is level. Never smoke a cigaiette, for if you do you may lay the basis of a very bad habit." flfrooklvn Union. Kati-iuck-re Through the midst of the famed blue grass region one of the tributary rivers of which we have spoken hail cut its channel deep in the rocky bed, over which it flowed and left the cliffs towering in perpendicular lines 400 feet above. On either side, amid the undulating pastures of wild clover, blue grass, and cane, game most abounded, and hcie lav the favorite and most frequented hunt ing giomuK of the led men. The Indians called ibis river, which me andered through the wild Eden of their sports and adventures, by the weird name " Kan-tuck-ec," j-b ex piessivcof its traditional memories, and from this oetie title the white men borrowed and gave, both to the river and country, the name Ken tucky. Smith's History of Ken tucky. A 5Tew Attraction. A young man living in Galveston got married without consulting his patents or friends. After seeing the bride, one of his friends asked him : " How did you come lo marrv that J ';irl? She has not cot a pretty face, her figure is not good, she is not rich, neither is she intelligent. What do yon una attractive aiioui ner r " You ought to see how prettily she sneezes 1" " How docs the new pastor impress you, Iiss Spinster?" "Lawsakes, how did you know he impressed me at all ? I didn't s'pose anybody saw us." Sclentlde MiHcellanj. London is to have an international cookery and food exhibition in De cember of this year. It has been discovered that heaps of unripe rice soon undergo a process of fermentation which is said to give the grain a delicious flavor. Bv carefully conducted experi ments, Mr. J. C. Arthur has demon strated that bacteria are the direct cause of pear-blight. Sap from an affected tree invariably produced the disease when inoculated into a health' tree. Valuable as is the microscope to various sciences, its use alone doe3 not constitute a distinct science. This fact has been at length recog nized by the American Association for the Advancement of Science, which, at its recent Ann Arbor meet ing, abolished its section on micro scopy. In the Mark Museum, at Dantzig, i3 now a piece of amber for which 1,500 h.i3 been refused. It weighs eight pounds, and is probably the largest piece in the world without blemish. A museum at Berlin con tains a piece, once owned by Fred erick the Great, weighing thirteen poundu, but it has gaps and cavities. The recent experiments on the British coast to test the relative mer its of oil, gas, and electricity for light houses, have resulted in the decision of the committee that oil is the most suitable and economical illuminant for ordinary necessities, and that electricity offers the greatest advan tages when very powerful light 13 needed. A French physiologist, Dr. Reg nard, is endeavoring to study ma rine animals under their natural con ditions, an apparatus designed by Cailletet enabling him to watch the creatures in water under any press ure up to that of 050 atmospheres, which corresponds with that of the sea at the gicatest depths at which dredgings have been made about four miles. ' An EkuorCokructkij. At a recent meeting of the French Academy of Sciences, Colladon corrected a pop ular belief by lemarking that the presence of masses of metal in a building does not add to the risk of being struck by lightning, provided the metal is not connected with the ground by a good electric conductor. In case the building i3 struck, how ever, combustibles near the metal are liable to be set on fire. Lengths or II::at Waves. The luminous rays of the solar spectrum have wave-lengths ranging between the narrow limits of .000,014 and .000,025 of an inch. Below these are dark heat rays of somewhat greater wave length," but Prof. S. V. Lang ley finds good rea-on for believing that the heat radiated by the soil has a wave-length twenty times as creat as that oi the lowest visible line in the so'ar .spcetium, and that there are probably wave-lengths of something more than one two-thousandth of an inch. These results are of much inteiest and importance, as showing that all heat is not of the same quality as that of the sun. On: PiTciiKR Pi ants. The North American pitcher plants, states Mr. W. Watson, of Kcw, number only sevenspecies. There aie six species of Sarraccnia, all characterized by the same trumpet-shaped leaves, grow ing in tufts, and in species attaining a length of a aid; and the seventh kind of pitcher plant is the Darling tonia California;, the top of which is curved over, forming a sort of hood, and having a rather small aperture at each side. While the Sarracenias allure and finally destroy insects in their piteheis, botanists" do not yet know whether the entrapped insects furnish nouris-hment to the plants, although it has been proven that animal food is not essential to the plants' existence. Aliminim Ai.iois. From recent investigations it appears that alum inum greatly increases the strength of metals alloyed Aith it. With a cheaper method of making such alloys by means of a new electric furnace, Messrs. 13. II. and A. H. Cowles and C. F. Mabcrv have added alum inum to copper in the proportion of two or three per cent, and obtained a product which is stronger than brass and would serve as an excel lent substitute for that metal. With five per cent of aluminum an alloy was produced havingatcnsilestrength equivalent to a strain of 08,000 pounds lo the square inch. The ad dition of two or three per cent of aluminum doubled the stiength of common brass ; and a composition of copper, nickel, zinc, aud armall per centage of aluminum withstood a strain of 105,000 pounds to the square inch, and has been named " Hercu les metal." Though very abundant, forming the base of common clay, aluminum, either nure or in alloys, has been obtainable only by expen sive processes.

Without her, summer existence would be monotonously dull; with her, it is monotonously delightful. But there is something very singular about the summer girl. She dis appears at the close of the season as totally disappears as if she had dropped out of existence altogether. The autumn and the winter and the spring do not reproduce her type. Cannot some arrangement be made whereby the summer girl can be with us all the vear round? Hartford r3t', "So you expect to go into the country, soon, Miss Gushington?" "Yes," she replied, "we are to visit Uncle James, and he has a delight ful house, with the wide porch all covered with trellis viiie3 and grape vines and bovines I can scarcely wait for the time to start."
