tBectig ftt the Boyal Institution ah theaWve subject, Prof. Tyadil ob served that the oldest historical record of a rainbow was found in the passage, "I do set My bow in the doqd, and it shall be for a token of a covenant between me and the earth." The sublime conception of the theologftn preceded that deske for exact knowledge which was characteristic of the men of science. Whatever the ultimate cause of the rambow might have been, the proximate caneewas physical, and the aim of science had been to refer the rain bow to its physical principles. Progress toward tut consummation had been very slow. Slowly the ancients mastered the laws of reflection;, still more slwly were the laws of refraction dng from the quarries in which nature ha& imbedded them. He used that language because the laws were incorporate in nature before they were discovered by men. It was by the scientific genius of the Dutchman Snail that the world obtained in 1621 the first approximate explanation of the rainbow, his discovery having, however, been rendered possible by the observations and measurements of earlier philosophers. The great Descartes completed the solution. There was a certain form of emotion called intellectual pleasure excited by poetry, literature, nature, and art, but he doubted whether there was any pleasure of the intellect more pure and concentrated than thatof the scientific man who, looking at a difficulty which had challenged the human mind for agee, saw that difficulty melt before his eyes and become crystallized as a law of nature. Such pleasure must have been that of Descartes when he succeeded in uncovering the law which rules the most splendid meteor of our atmosphere. Since Descartes' time further light had been thrown on the matter by Newtcn, who found out the secret of the colors of the prisms; by Thomas Tounsr. who. eiizrhtv-two vears

ago, was appointel Professor of the Boyal Society, and who discovered the causes of the rainbow's supernumerary zones; by Sir George Airey, the late Astronomer Boyal, who demonstrated the truth of Prot Young's scientific principles by more accurate calculations; and lastly, by the late Prof. Miller, of Cambridge, and Dr. Galler, of Berlin. Prof. Tyndall described how, in the Alps, last year, and subsequently at Hindhead, in Hamshire, he had witnessed the rare phenomenon of a white rainbow, caused by reflected light on a misty atmosphere. By clever and amusing experiments the lecturer showed how this remarkable effect might be artificially produced, and how, wLext the moisture in the air was composite as, for instance, where water spray was mixed with paraffin oil spray, a still more wonderful rainbow resulted, such as was to be seen at almost all timen frond a famous mountain in Western China, whither the people flocked from far sad near to witness what they called "Tie glory of Buddha. Lo ndon Telegraph. ; The Mandrake.

Few flowers have had an earlier or mora superstitious reverence than the Mandrake; Solomon speaks of its fragrance, and includes it "among all manner of pleasant fruits. n As a plant of potent power and oocult virtues, it is used extensively in Svria at this dar. The Arab call it the "devil's apple the Greek) call it "love apple," and their women nearly universally wear it as a love charm. Many ceremonies were anciently observed in the gathering of it. Josephus describes the manner of pulling it by tying firmly to its root or stem a dog. It was said to uttes; a shriek when drawn from the earth, which was fatal to those who heard it ; hence the Jews used a dog to gather it, or else carefully closed the orifice of the ear. The singular resemblance to the human form, often observable in its roots, ii as given it a fame greater than any ether plant in all magical potions. Among the fiosicrucians it was believed to have the power of discovering subterranean treasures. In the fifteenth eentary it was commonly worn in Franco and Southern Europe as an amulet, and the powdered root was the celebrated "love powders" of the. wise men and women of those days. Even at the present time it is only pulled in Germany after signing the cross three times over it, and in the Tyrol pieces of thgjtoot worn round the neck are believed to protect the wearer from robbers. It retains with us a shadowy remnant of its once great medicinal virtues as an homeopathic pellet to cure rheumatism. It is much easier to change dogmas than symliols, and it is somewhat remarkable that the death of Baldur, in Norse mythology, is identified with the nativity of John the Baptist in Christian faith. On this night,, in pagan times, all witches were abrcrad, and the plant known now as St- John's Wort wss dedicated to them. After the introduction cf Christianity, the same plant, mingled wi h the cross, was used as a protection against them. The red juice of the plant suggested the blood of the Baptist, and was believed to confer the gift of second sight, and to wrest the secrets of the future from the powers it was supposed to rule. Four centuries ago, in England, it was customary on St. John's Bay to build large bonfires, and young men and women, wreathed with St- John's Wort, danced around them, invoking the saiat and praying for blessings on the coming year. In the Tjxol it is still put into the shoes to prevent weariness in walking, and in Lorraine there is a decided prejudice against cutting grass for hay until this anniversary. Floral World. Cnriens Laws. There are some curious customs in Sicily relative to real estate purchase that an American would not tolerate long. If any man in that country buy an estate be it house, land, or vineyard tie neighbor of the purchaser may, for a year afterward, eject him at an advance of price. In vain would the first purchaser give more to the original owner. This law is generally evaded by falsehood. The purchase money is stated, in the articles of agreement at ft higher sum than has been

agreed upon, in the presence of, four witnesses. There is another no less singular law in that country, according to which any man can oblige his neighbour to sell his house, if he will pay him three times its value. The intention of this law was the improvement of the towns. It was to encourage the possessors of large houses to purchase the humble homes of the poor..

Collecting a BUI. A citizen who has an office on Honroe avenue has for the last three years been owing a grocery bill. The grocer's collector called on him over 100 times to secure pay ment of the debt, but was always put off -with some excuse or other. At one time it was death, another sickness, another time bad luck, and so it went on until it really seemed impossible for the debtor to invent any new pleas. The other day the grocer himself took the bill in his fist and cornered the debtor iu his office. "Yes, I know very sorry hand you the money a week from to-day," was the smiling excuse. "See, here!" said the grocer, as he locked the door and pulled off his coat, Tve been figuring on this matter. This bill is for $ 15. I can give you the worst licking a man ever received, and get off with a fine of $10. I'll then give you a receipt for the other five, and the account will be closed. Prepare to be pulverized!" "But suppose I lick you then what ? queried the other. "Then there won't be any resort to the law, and you shall have a receipt in full!" "That seems to be fair, and I'll do my best," said the debtor, and at it they went. The grocer expected to get away with him in about a minute, but he was a deceived man. It wasn't over three minutes before he was knocked over a chair and rendered hors de combat. "Is it a receipt in full?" asked the debtor, as he sat astride of the other, and kept both hands fastened in his hair. "She is P "And yotill pay me $2 in cash for the broken furniture?" "Yes." "Then you may get up, and I'll recommend you to a doctor who'll fix your broken collar-bone as good as new inside of a week.'9 The grocer gave him a receipt for the account, and handed over $2 in cash, and later in the day, when telling the story in his store, he explained : " Gentlemen, I've sassed scores of citizens, abused dozens of hackmen, and been aching for three years past for a chance to pulverize some one. It's worth $17 to me to know that my grit gives out with the first round 1" Detroit Free Press.

So you want a position as clerk, do

you?" asked the proprietor of the hotel of a dapper young applicant. "Yes, sir." "Have you had much experience?" "Oh, yes, sir. I have been connected with a greatfcniany of the large hotels, and can give the best of recommendations." "Well," said the landlord, "we want a clerk, but and he hesitated. "But what?" asked the young man. "You seem to have no diamond breastpin' "Yes, I have. I've got a big one, but I thought I wouldn't wear.it this morning." In that case, said the hotel proprietor, with a relieved look, "the position is at your service. I thought at first you had a diamond yet to purchase, and the way business is going on just now it might cramp me somewhat." PhiladelpJiia Call.

As to Christians and Fools. Jenny Lind once went to hear Father Taylor preach in Boston, but the preacher, ignorant of her presence, paid a glowing tribute to her powers of song. As the Swedish nightingale leaned forward with delight, drinking in this unexpected praise, a tall man who sat on the pulpit stairs, began slowly to unwind himself, and when he had done so, wanted to know whether any one who had died at Miss Lind's concerts would go to heaven. Father' laylor said : "Sir, a Christian will go to heaven wherever he dies; but a fool will be a fool, even though he be on the pulpit stairs. It would take more grace to sane such a man than it would take skim milk to feed an elephant." Macon Telegraph.

The Lonesomest Man in the World. Dave Walker, of Anderson's Store, was one of the best North Carolina soldiers that Lee had. Dave was in Richmond some time since, and sitting at night in the St. James Hotel, he heard a fellow with a cocked hat on, talking everybod nearly to death about the war. He said he had been a Colonel. Finally he drew a seat up to Dave and asked if he was in the war. Dave said: "Yes, I was there. " "What position did you hold? "None, sir," said Dave. "I reckon I'm the lonesomest man in the world." "Ah! why so?" asked the Colonel. "Why," said Dave, "I as a private in the war, and I'm the only one I have ever seen since" Iialeigh News and Observer.

The Beautiful. There never was a truer saying than Victor Hugo's in Les Miserables : "The beautiful is as useful as the useful, perhaps more bo. " The beautiful is a powerful influence for good; it teaches the most impressive lessons in a language that all can understand the language of the human soul. Its lessons are so ;lain aad forcible, at the same time so charged with feeling, that all, from the least to the greatest, are affected by them. Beauty in confitantly giving and constantly growing richer; it is unselfish, yet it demands attention from every one only to maba them better. The Friends. Mr. T. jBentley, a member of the estimable community of Quakers at Sandy Springs, McL, sys he was severely affected by rheumatism in his right hand. Mr. Bentley applied St. Jacobs Oil, the great pain enre, and by its continued uae, in a enort time, was completely cured.

HEREDITARY TAINTS.

Some Revelations on a 8uhjcit Which Concerns the Welfare of the Race and the Happiness of All Rochester Democrat and Chronicle. To any one who nas studied tholawsof life and especially those which relate to reproduction, an experience such as we are about to relate will come with special force and interest The ' transmission of certain mental traits of prominence, and of certain physical traits of equal prominence, are facts which all acknowledge, but which none can understand. The father may be d 1st i tiff uf shod the eon, an imbecile; or, the parent m ay be decrepit and unknown, and the child achieve the hicrhest place possible to humanity. Hut through it atl, there will bo certain characteristics, which mark the individual as do

scendiiiK from certain ancestors Too often, indeed, these characteristics are infirmities, and often of a physical nature. Thesa facts were strikinfty brought out during a conversation, which a representative cf this paper recently had with Mrs. Carrie D. T. Swift, who is the wife of one of our most prominent citizens. This lady related that she inherited from Sier parents certain tendencies, over which she had no control, and which were in the nature of blood difficulties, assuming the form of rheumatism. Her experience can best be described in her own words, To the writer she said : felt the beginning of this hereditary taint many years ago, in vague pains, which seemed to come unaccountably and at uncalled for times. They were annoying, exhausting, and interfered not only with my duties, but also totally destroyed my happiness. At first, they would be only transient, appearing for a day or two, and then disappearing; then again they would come in such violent forms, that it was impossible for me to lift a cup to my mouth. Afterwards, my feet and hands swelled bo that it was impossible for me to draw on my shoes or gloves without the greatest effort. 1 realized what the difficulty was, but teamed-powerless to avert it. I finally became so bad that I was confined to the house and to my bed most of the time. My joints pained me continuously and my feet swelled to enormous proportions. Knowing that I inherited this tendency, I had about abandoned hope, when I bean the use of a remedy, which was recommended to me by a friend as being specially efficient in case? of a similar kind. To my great gratitude, I fdund that it relieved me, restored my appetite, and 1 am able to say that now I have gained forty pounds in weight, feel perfectly well, and am In the best possible condition, owing, wholly, to Warner's Safe Rheumatic Cure, which was the remedy I used." No one would ever suspect you had suffered so, Mrs. Swift, to see you know," remarked tho reporter. 'That is what all my friends ray. Only yesterday, an acquaintance of mine, whom I had not seen for some time, hesitated, before speaking, and apologized by saying, 'Why, I really did not know you you have chanored so for the better since I last met you; how well you do look." Havo you any objection to giving the name of the party who first mentioned this remedy to you?" "Not the slightest. It was Mr. R. H. Furman, the photographer." The newspaper man, after bidding Mrs. Swift good-by, repaired to the photographic rooms of Mr. Furman, when the following conversation ensued: "Have you been a sufferer from rheumatism, Mr. Furman?" "Well, I should think I had." "For how many yearn?" "Twelve or fifteen "Did you try to cure it?" re3, 1 tried everything, and at last went to the Hot Springs of Arkansas, and nothing seemed to do mo any good until 1 tried Warner's Safe Rheumatic Cure." "And it cured you, did it" "Yes, completely." "And you can cordially recommend it?" "Yes, indeed, more cordially than anything: I have ever known of. It is simply a wonderful medicine. I believe that two-thirds of all cases, both acute and chronic, could be cured as I was cured by tho use of this remedy. In fact, I know a number of persons who have been in the worst possible condition, and are now completely well, wholly through its use." The statements above made are from sources the authority of which cannot be questioned. They conclusively prove the value of the preparation named and show that, even hereditary traits can be removed by the use of the proper means. An Ingenuous Maiden Speech. A young lawyer, while making his maiden speech in the! Court House here, in defending a little negro boy for some petty crime, in the midst of an impassioned appeal to the twelve good and true men exclaimed: wAh, gentlemen of the jury, you uee before you this poor trembling boy without father, without mother, without friends, without counsel " At this point the orator was interrupted by a general titter around the bar, and, to add to his confusion, the Judge, who was smiling on the bench, added : "Proceed, Brother , the court is "with you." Morg anion Mountaineer, Prof. Blount has made some elaborate experiments iu Colorado, which prove that the tendency of foreign seed is to produce a better grain than domestic seed. It has also been found that wheat loses it gluten by age, and some varieties in a much greater degree than others.

An Important Fact. The voluntary testimony of thousands established beyond all doubt a fact of -vital importance to the eick and debilitated, viz., that Hosteller's Stomach Bitters is an absolute spesifio for remittent and intermittent fever, dyspepsia, constipation, biliousness, mental depression, sleeplessness, chronic diarrhoea, and all diseases of the stomach, liver ami b wels. The unmedicated stimulants usually prescribed in these cases only aggravate the symptoms, instead of removing them. The Bitters, on the contrary, act as a corrective and invigorant, without producing th3 unpleasant and dangerous consequences of the old-school practice. The action Is mild and soothing to the irritated stomach and bowels, promoting digestion and preventing flatulence, nausea, headache and all internal irregularities. A wineglassful before meals greatly assists digestion. The convalescent may use them with jcreat benefit, as a means of restoring strength and cheerfulness.

Dairymen often wonder how their more favored competitors get such high prices for their butter the year round. It is by always having a uniform gilt-edged article.
