} Hacks to let at the s
inherited .
Diseases.
Tn the realm ot disease the facts of tm }
heritance are most numerous and are dally .
accumulating. Here, alas, they become ter{
rible, fateful and overwhelming. No fact of
mature is more pregnant with awful meaning than the fact of the inheritance of
disease. It mects the physictan on his daily
rounds, paralysing his art and filling him
with dismay. The legend of the ancient
Greeks pictures the Furies as pursuing
families from generation to generation,
rendering them desolate. The Furies still
ply their wor of terror aad death, but they
are not now clothed in the garb of superstition, but appear in the more intelligible but
no less awful form of hereditary disease.
Modern science, which has fuminated so
many dark corners of nature, has shod a
new light on the ominous words of the
Scriptures, “The sins of the fathers shall be
visited upon the children unto the third and
fourth genoration.” Instances of hereditary
disease abound, Fifty per cent. of cases of
consumption, that fearful destroyer of familes, of cancer and scrofula, run in families
through inheritance. Insanity is hereditary
in a marked degree, but, fortunately, like
many other hereditary diseases, tends to
Wear itself out, the stock becoming extinct.’
A distinguished sctontiit truly’ says: “No
organ or texture of the body is exempt from
the chance of being the subject of hereditary
disease.” Probably ‘more chronic diseases,
which permanently’ modify the structure
aud functions of the body, are more or less
Mable to be inherited. The important and
fi hi I from such
facts—affccting so powerfully the happiness
of individuals and families and the collective
welfare of the. nation—are obvious to reflecting minds, and the best means for preventing or curing these diseases is a subject ef © ‘ P to all, F ly nat

BLASTING STUMPS. —
Easy Way of Getting Rid of These ObJ praia Bho
It is almost impossible to get at the
exact cost of blowing out jStamps~
wih Hercules powder, as “it dopends u»on the size and condition
of the stumps.
By condition I mean: First, if the
stump stands on a firm or mucky,
sandy soil. Second, if it is solid or
partly rotten, ,
Of course, it makes a deal of
difference as to the size of the stump;
a large stump will tcke from one to
one and a half pounds, while a small
one only reqrizes about one-half pound,
and perhaps less.
In ‘handling the powder one. cannot use too much precau‘ion, alppoagh if handled carefully the powder
is safe.
I got my powder for about twentyve-cents per cartzi‘ze of one-!::!

There is a book of. directions that

placing the charse there and b=2":!=~
it up some, so that the full force
ol the powder will be against the
stump. : :
Always use fuse enough, so that
after lighting you can get back out
of the way.
If the ground is‘ soft, the best way
is to bore into the centre cf tho etum
and place the char~s, fr if it is plae
under, as in the oihor exze, it will
only blow the dirt out and leave the
stump standing.
It can also be used successfully on
bowldors, and thus rid the ground of
these troublesome things,—[Farm and

KILLING THE GREAT AUK,
How an Interesting Bird Was Destroyed—
Other Extinct Creatures.
eee
_{ySixty or seventy years ago the great
auks were exceedingly common alone
the northern coast, coming as far south
as Nahant: But warfare was commenced
upon them, and, though it hardly seems
pagent their extermination is doubtess complete ; the last living bird havin
been killed in 1844, on a group of islands
called Funglasker, off the south-west
coast of Iceland. J
In the last century these birds, which
were large, handsome and striking in apeS were common at the Faroe
slands, and, as they were found to be
good eating, they were slaughtered by
the boat-load, not only for immediate
use, but to be dried and preserved. They
were finally driven to a desolate rock
that was considered inaccessible; but
one calm day a Faroese vessel succeeded
in making a landing, and the crew destroyed nearly the entire rookery. A
few birds escaped to sea and ‘returned
after the departure of the men, and for a
time were safe.’ Then, as if nature herself were in we, brs against them, the
rock, a few’ years later, was engulfed by asub-marine eruption. ee
The.few remaining great auks now assembled and formed a rookery on a rock
called Eldey, where, for fourteen years,
they lived a precarious existence. © During that time sixty of their number were
taken, and finally the last pair was dostroyed. Their history in other localities
is very ‘similar to this. That the birds
were Once common on the Maine coast is
shown by the fact that their bonés are
found in the.oyster-shell heaps at Various
parts of the shore.
At the same time and in the same locality with the great auk lived the Labrador duck, quite rare even in collections,
and now totally extinct. The last known
vig a imen was killed by Colonel
Wedderburn, of Halifax, in 1832,
In a similar way the curious dodo,
which was a great pigeon, was exterininated. The sailors who visited the Island
of Mauritius used to kill them in mere
wanton sport. jie
The notornis, a beautiful rail of New
Zealand, has become extinct probably
within the memory of some of our readers, its extermination also being -due to
man. And in our own time we see the
buffalo being crowded further and further
into the mountains and almost exterminated from our Western plains. _
The Street Car Conductor Talks, g
The callow eonductor poked his head
‘n‘o the car and said in‘a loud, distinct
tone, “Fourteenth street station.”
“When that young fellow knows his
iness he’ll say, ‘Fourteenth street,’ ”
commented the veteran of the road, who
had justNntormed the passengers that
the street “they had reached was
“Teenth,” ‘
“Know any finny stories? See that
tleman in the second seat there?
e’s & broker, and a
a train, he will walk very leisurely unti
when he will suddenly break into a run
and rush up the stairs. If there’s one
thing more than another that a man
hates to miss it is an’elevated train, and
when the: fellows behind him see the
broker begin to run, every Tom, Dick
and Ha: of them within five blocks
rushes pellmell to the station. The brobowls mee to enjoy * I’ve Pig say
Tunning was good exervzise ; but is
seems to make
deal. Haven't they got onto it by this
time ? Young man, when you have lived
as mage: oo in the world as I have,
you will find out that nothing that appeals to the gullibilitygof human nature
ever becomes a chestnut.
“Yes, I’m somewhat of a philosopher,
but it wasthe profession that. macs me
so. You will notice that a woman never
gets out of this end of the car. It doesn’t
matter even if she is in the rear seat,
wher she wants to get out she will push
her way ight through the car, though it
is packed like a sardine box. Is it superstition or fashion? Well, that's hard
tosay. In a horse car she will always
walk out the other way, but perhaps in
that case she is afraid of the horses.”

Tough Story of an Old Rabbit.
Here is a story which beats the old
dog stories hollow. According to M. LaJorder, a writer in the Revue Scientifique,
a rabbit, one of the ordinary tame spevies, was bought for purposes of experinent at the Physiological Laboratory in
Paris, and after a portion of the facial
nerve had been removed it was lett to run
about the laboratory.
It very soon recovered from the effect
of the operation, and was for four years
M. Laborde’s affectionate companion. It
would await at the top of the stairs his
arrival in the morning, and would sometimes run to meet him. Whenever it had
the opportunity the rabbit would jump
apon his knee, and it was as fond of
caresses as a cat.
During the progress of an experiment
it would sit on the operating table watching the Septet a with every ohh
ance of interest. Bunny’s chief delight
was ina micevananice examination.
As soon as M. Laborde put his eye to
the microscope, the rabbit would perch
on his shoulders and endeavor to take a
peep. ‘This wonderful animal lived on
terms of the most intimate friendship
with two dogs belonging to the laboratory; but when a strange arrived he
invariably turned it out, and sometimes
