It Is well known that anesthetics, es pecially chloroform and ether, are fatal to llrltig beings, acting slowly when they are used In small tiantltlcs for n long time, and rapidly when they nro given lu large doses. This Is true both for animal nnd for vegetable life.

Powdered sugar Is said to possess de cided Inferior sweetening properties to those of the coarsely crystallized arti cle In the process of pulverization It Is claimed that the bent nnd electricity produced transform a certain propor tion of the sugar Into glucose, whose sweetening powers nre two and n half times less than those of saccharose. The lung differs from nil other struc tures In having two separate circula tions, the nutritive, supplied by the left side of the heart through the bronchial arteries; and the functional, supplied by the right side of the heart through the pulmonary nrtery. This double cir culation underlies nil the phenomena of pneumonia, and must be recognized In any definition of the disease, ns with out It the disease Itself cannot exist Our new Island of Porto Hlco, ac cording to Mark W. Harrington, Is "thu most densely populated rural com munity proper In America." It has about '.'20 Inhabitants to the square mile. When the Spaniards first occu pied It, It was as densely populated as It Is now. Hefore Columbus discovered America two successive races had oc cupied the Island; one seems to havo been of northern origin nnd tho other was of Carlb stock. Every tillable part of the land has been cultivated agnla and nsnlu. Aiming the Hint, quartz and Jasper arrow-heads frequently found In this country arc certain forms known to archaeologists as "wur points." Kor arrows they were made small, some times not more than three-fifths of an Inch long. They are triangular In out line, and were Intended to stick fast In a wound. Prof. W. K. Moorehead says that war points are found abundantly scattered lu certain localities where there are no Indications of villages hav ing existed, and the Inference Is that such places were battle-grounds, where the red men fought In ancient days. Kor many years efforts have been made from time to time to measure the heat rndlated from some of the bright est stars. The moat successful attempt nppenrH to be that of Professor Nichols at the Yerkes Observatory. With tho aid of nn apparatus recalling the prin ciple of the Crookes radiometer, he has ascertained that the star Vega, which shines very brilliantly near the zenith lu midsummer cveulugs, sends to the earth nn n mount of heat equal to thnt of an ordlnnry cnndle six miles distant. A ret urns, the star celebrated by Job, and which has n somewhat fiery color, radiates about twice ns much heat as Vega. ALUMINIUM A USEFUL METAL. It la Arallnlile for Mnny Purpoaes iu the Mechunlc Arta, The principal uses of aluminium aro too many to bu enumerated. The pro perties of the metal are so akin to those of copper and brass tlut, broadly speak ing, aluminium or oue of Its light alloys should, to a large extent, replace both copper and tin nnd also nickel or Ger man silver. Such a change would be followed by various advantages to nil concerned. Not only would there be a considerable reduction In the weight of the articles, but they would uot tar nish or turn blnck on exposuro to nlr. Thu cost should bo the same, If uot actually lower, Inasmuch as, bulk for bulk, aluminium Is nlrendy cheaper than copper or tlu, nnd Its price will continue to fall as tho deuiaud In creases. Ono Held, however, remains which copper Is bound to maintain as Its own, namely, the construction of Isolated electrical conductors. Experiments havo ulrendy beeu mado on n largo scale with baro conductors of alu minium for telephones, with perfectly satisfactory results, Its conductivity, weight for weight, being double thnt of copper. But when the mains havo to bo Insulntcd copper Is absolutely tin- jgppronchable, on account of Its greater. conductivity, volume' for volume, .which Is 10 per cent of that of ulu- nilnkim. Besides tho advantages set forth a novo aluminium Is not polsonotti and Is pre-eminently adapted for the man ufacture of cooking utetislK A stendy demand for aluminium Is springing up In various kinds of printing processes ns well as In lithography. The metal appearH to answer admirably for the construction of rollers used In calico printing, and when lis surface Is prop erly prepared It Is also capable of re placing the ordinary lithographic stone. It can easily bu Imagined that. Instead of having cttmbious cud heavy stones, which can be printed only on special slow-running "lltlio" machines, It Is far better and cheaper to use thin sheets of n metal which can be bent Into n cir cular form and printed on rotary presses. ISIcycles, electric light fittings, chains, bridles, stirrups, surgical Instruments, keys, cigar enses, pen and pencil hold ers, toilet articles, plates and dishes, spoons, forks, frames, name plates, door furniture, hat and coat pegs.boot trees, Ore engine fittings, business and visiting cards and photographic cam eras are a few of the things that are being dally made In aluminum by vari ous firms. Kor motor cars there should be a large field for aluminum. A further de. mnnd for the metal will be brought about by Its Introduction Into the mili tary services. All parts of the soldier's equipments hnve practically been made In aluminum, such nn mess tins, water bottles, buttons, helmets, parts of rifles, cartridge cases, fittings for guns, tenU), horseshoes, portable bridges, etc., anil It Is well known that continental nnnlcs, notably the German army, are employing aluminum on a large scale.

Cactus Is a genus of plants, the type -of the natural order of c.ictaseae, and comprises numerous species, all of which nre nntlvo to Amerlc. The name was originally given by Theo phrastus to a spiny plnut found In Si cily. The stems of the cactus nre us ually lealless nnd fleshy, globular ot columnar, and are armed with spines and bristles. The structure of many of the species Is singular nnd grotesque In the extreme, and the roughness of the stnlks and the beauty of the flow ers make them one of the most Inter esting botanical curiosities of our con tinent Tbey are fouud clilelly In the hot stony places of tropical America, and their tough and almost Impenetra ble skin Incloses abundant Juice, which enables them to support a sluggish vital action without Inconvenience even In a parched soil. Some of the varieties of cactus are only a few Inches high, while others attain a height of forty feet It Is a curious fact that the cactus flourishes even nt the foot of Mount Etna, In Si cily. Thu most splendid example of tho cactus family Is the glnnt cactus, of which n flue cxnmplc Is still stand ing, although It Is slowly rotting nnd wilt soon fall. It wns found nt a point eight miles south of Phoenix, Ariz., near the Pima reservation. It Is about forty feet high. What the date palm Is to the African deserts the giant cac tus Is to our own nrld lands. From It the Mexlcnns extract the drink called "mescal," nnd the Indians also obtain a beverage from It On Its fruit the Pnpago Indians live for weeks ns a time. Woodpeckers dig their nests In the trunks and branches, nnd even doves feed on the fruit When the cactus of this kind dies Its usefulness Is uot destroyed, for the tough ribs beneath the outer skin nre used by the Papngo Indians for the foundation of their mud roofs and they also use It In building chicken coops and even as n covering for their graves. It is not this species of cactus from which travelers are supposed to obtnln n supply of water, but the small cactus, which contains a plentiful sup ply of sap. Scientific American.

The pleasant method and beneficial effects of the well known remedy, Strup op Figs, manufactured by tho Califounia Fiq Sviiup Co., illustrate the value of obtaining the liquid laxa tive principles of plants known to be medicinally laxative and presenting them in the form mo&t refreshing to tho taste and acceptable to the system. It is the one perfect strengthening laxa tive, cleansing the system effectually, dispelling colds, headaches and fevers gently yet promptly and enabling one to overcome habitual constipation per manently. Its perfect freedom from every objectionable qunllty and sub stance, and its acting on the kidneys, liver and bowels, without weakening or irritating them, make it the ideal laxative. In the process of manufacturing figs are used, as they are pleasant to the taste, but tho medicinal qualities of the remedy are obtained from senna and other aromatic plants, by a method known to the California Fio Svnur Co. only.
