Says tlio Boston Traveller: Itsooms
that in Great Britain, as well as in
Germany, the cities are growing out
f all proportion to tho rest of the
ountry. Apparently theso are the
tendencies in all the great industrial
ations. This drift cityward fore
shadows an active demand and good
prices for farm products everywhere,
and an improvement in conditions for
the farmers.
) Ono of the latest electrical dis
coveries is tho power of electricity,
tinder certain conditions, to destroy in
water bacteria that causes disouses,
am) possibly in the human system as
well. There are good and bad bacteria,
some of them of great value to farm
ers for the increase of fertility of soil.
Theso we have sometimes thought
wore increased in activity by thunder
storms. So when scientists aim tlieir
electrical discharges at bacteria they
should have a caution to aim to de
8 roy those only that are known to be
injurious.
The St. Louis Star-Sayings observes :
"Ono result of the marvelous growth
of Atrerican citizens and tho conse
quent crowding together of large num
bers of citizens and their families, has
been a renewal of tho agitation in fa
vor of a new cabinet officer to have
charge of a national health department.
In all the crowded countries of the
Old World such a department and
such s head have been found necessary,
and there is no good reason why wo
should wait for a very serious epi
demic before following tho example.
The expense would be quite nominal,
and tho concentrated action which
would be rendered practicable in cases
of emergency might bo the melius of
savin; thousands of lives."
There is a marriage bureau in I'er
Hn which during the last eleven years
has received 1 'J ,959 applications for
husbands and wives from all civilized
countries, while matches have been
brought about for 4'J9 women appli
cants and 5417 men. "To such an ex
tent is the traffic carried on," asserts
the Philadelphia Record, ''that tho
matrimonial agent arranges with the
keepers of American boarding-hcuscs
where the American girls live to take
young officers into their homos, with
'tho promise of a commission if a
match shall be brought about. Tho
penniless Lieutenant ilerr Baron, with
waxed mustache, blue eyes and red
uniform, has frequently found his
fate-in ono of these accommodating
sencics."
The Washburn & Moen Company,
at Worcester, Mass., is making a sc
ries of experiments which promises
to transform the rod and wire busi
ness. Copper is now used altogether
in rods and wire where great strength
and resistance to tension are required.
Steel lacks this tenacity. It is stated,
however, that tho company's experts
', laye discovered a process hy which
steel can be tempered so as to possess
this necessary tenacity, and that steel
wire has been actually made which
- will stand all the strain and tonsion
that copper wire will. It can be man
ufactured, it is believed, at a much
jess cost than the present figures for
copper, and its success would cause a
decided drop in that metal. Despite
the secreev of those who have had tho
experiments in charge gossip about
i thorn has been current for some time
, among the brokers, and speculation
W to thpir influence on the markot is
" life. j. Tbe late Mr. Hoen, it is under-
stood, was the active spirit in this
' malter, and the new plant which the
company is starling at Chicago is snp
, f09cd to be intended for Iho extension
t the ' binjucss which would result
'.from tit success of these experiments.

Ramie is a plant belonging to the
nettle family, which from time im
memorial has bees cultivated in China
and known to botaufcta br the same
Baehmeria nlvea, frequently called the '
Ungleu nettle. It is also known at !
'China grass" ana Khea." it lias
long been cultivated also in Japan, in
Java, Bornoo, Sumatra and in the East
Indies, and during the present ceniu-
ry has been introduced into othor conn-1
tries. It. introduction into the UIN !
ed Statos dates back to the year 1855.
When fu'.l grown tho plant attains
a height of four to eight feet, clothed !
with large leaves that are green above
, , .". . ., . " , i
and whitish or silvery beneath, the
liber being foiinod in tho bark which
surrounds the stalk, this having a
pithy centre. It is of rapid growth
. , . , , .
and produces frDin two to four, or
even five, crops a year without replant-
ing, dependent upon the climate where
Cultivated. In China and Japan,
where the fiber is extracted by hand
labor, it is manufactured not only into
cordajre, fish-lines, nets and similar
coarse manufactures, hut woven into ,
the finest and most beautiful of fab- ,
rics. In England, France and Ger
many the fiber has also been woven '
into a great variety of fabrics, cover
ing tho widest range of uses, such
as lace, laco curtains, handkerchiefs,
cloth or whito goods resembling line I
linen, dress goods, napkins, tablo j
damask, table covers, bed spreads, j
drapery for curtains or lambrequins, !
plush and even carpets and fabrics
suitable for clothing. The fiber can
be dyed in all desirable shades or .
colors, some examples having the lus- :
cr and brilliancy of silk. It is one
of the strongest aud most durable of
libers, is least affected by moisture of
all fibers, and from thcc character
istics must take first rank in value as
a textile substance. It has three times
the strength of Russian hemp, while
its filaments can bo separated almost
to the rinenoss of silk. In manufac-1
turc it has been spun on various forms ,
of textile machinery, and also used in
connection with cotton, wool and silk, ;
and it can be employed as a substitute
in certain forms of manufacture, where
elasticity is not essential, for all of
theso textiles, aud for flax also.
It likewise produces superior paper,
aud can be utilized in the manufacture
of celluloid. In short, tho uses to
which it may be put are almost end
lese, aud when the economical extrac
tion of the fiber by machinery is suc
cessfully accomplished it will become
ono of tho most valuable commercial
products of the vegetable world.
Washington Star.
Spider Silk.
It is mid that spiders' threads may
be woven, which is true enough, that
they are more glossy and brilliant than
those of the silkworm, which is not
supported by the conclusions of those
who have compared the two side by
side, aud that enough of it was once
secured for tiio weaving of a suit of
clothes for Louis XIV. Now, stock-
, ins have certainly been made from
spider silk, and gloves too, for speci
mens of each were presented to the
Royal Academy of Paris, and to the
Londou Royal Society in 1710, and
there is an indefinite mention of waist-
, coats being produced from this re
markable fiber. But this is the first
that has been henrd of an entire suit
of clothes fui nished by spiders. As
it has been calculated that it would be
i necessary to rear 55,296 of the largest
spiders, or CG3.552 of the ordinary
I sort (0 yiokl a pound of gilk we may
! mMrA . ...si .;,., . i..i,.,i i
AUIU M1UII DUIU H Villi' :
It is most probable, however, that it j
is only a case of slipshod inaccuracy ,
after all, for it is on record that M. j
Lebon of Montpclicr sent a pair of
gloves mado from spiders' silk to that
same Louis XIV., and faulty memory,
with caroloss haste, has most likely
made a suit of clothes out of them.
Growth of the Kindergarten System.
"The growth of the kindergarten
system of starting off young children
in the race for knowledge is not aston
ishing," said a lady who has devoted
considerable attention to the subject.
"It is the school of practical common
sense aud is very popular with both
parents and children. I have little
four-year-old tols in my school who
not only know their letters and are
otherwiso montally smart, but who
can do almost anything with their
hands and feet. We pay more atten
tion to the physical training of theso
little ones now than we ever did be
fore. You should see some of my
four-year-olds putting up thoir wee
littlo dumb bolls, turning out their
toes and going through their regular
calisthenics. And t'ley love it so, and
think everything such great fun. We
don't push them into books.- They
have nothing to do with books. Loi
ters and numerlcals are merely Inci
dental." TNew York Herald.
