No supreme civilization is reached, however, on a single lino of progress. To form a complete, wellrounded humanity, scope must be given to every healthful aspiration and no facility left to lie dormant. The ideal race is yet to be created out of the perfections of all.

East Indian Snakes and Wolves. An East India paper says : — "On« thousand two hundred and sixty-four persons were killed by wild animals and 9,515 by snakes in tho Presidency of Bengal last year. In the same period tho number of cattle destroyed was upward of 12,000. This, says a Bombay paper, is a considerable bill of mortality for one Presidency, but pe suppose in this, as iu all other matters, as is often asserted, the 'minor Presidencies1 must ■ uAiuit t La cupayumW-of -Bangui. Compared with the returns of 1878, the figures quoted from an interesting statement just issued by Mr. Counscll, tho Acting Registrar, show a considerable increase. In one respect, however, there was a falling off, namely, in the number of persons killed by wolves — 83, against 152 in 1878. Probably wolves are less voracious in Bengal than they used to he, but the shikars, amateur und professional, have not shown more consideration for them than formerly. Indeed, the sportsmen have met with greater success than over, for nearly 500 more were- killed than in the previous twelve months. Altogether 5,543 wild animals wore destroyed during the past year. From the statistics sent iu to Government it appears that 21,102 snakes were killed, against 24,270 In WTtVf but' the nctuul number WHS j probably very much larger. The re- | turns relate only to tho snakes for the destruction ofVJiicli rewards were paid. These rewards ure only given for cobras, caboras, and keraits destroyed within the limits of towns, municipalities, and villages in which tho Village Cliowkidaree acts is in force, and it seems that many persous who destroy venomous snakes, even within the limits for which rewards are given, never ask the money to which they are entitled. The total amount paid in rewards lust year was 28,370.14 rupees:" Soapstone in Your Butter . T T - ..... V.. .^,vv n..nAV*uui> 1 V i

The dealers iu Now York who handle largo quantities of Western butler have noticed, of late, that the "fifty-pound I tubs," which generally weigh from fifty to fifty-two pounds each when full, now frequently weigh from fifty-six to Bixtv l pounds. This increase of six or eight pounds in the same bulk occurred, it i was noticed, only in Western packages ; ' ; but even the most experienced butter1 buyers could detect no foreign substance i in this "heavy •weight" article, and gave j up the problem as a mystery. Recently a. prominent butter and clieeso dealer in a Western trip discovered the. fraud.

A firm in Cincinnati, known as the Cin- . I cinnnti Facing Company, is engaged in ; manufacturing n powdered soapstone, 1 lie say s, which finds ready market in supplying legitimate demands, but now i the fanners and butter packers use it to : adulterate their butter. This powdered soapstone, a sample of which was given ton Trirune reporter yesterday, is white and line and tasteless, and is sold at $20 a ton. From six , to eight pounds can ho thoroughly mix- ! ed in every tub of butter so as to defy ! detection. It greatly increases the weight without affecting the bulk voiy much. Tho reporter ascertained tho names of certain butler-packing firms in Cincinnati which are now using the soapstone in this way. It was also ascertained that the powder is now being | quietly sold directly to some dairymen 1 and. farmers, aiul that the adulteration is now going on in the ehurning-room. The buyer who made the discovery ! gave tho following account of what ho saw in making his investigations s— "I was shown into an adulteration-room by a buffer-packer,'1 he said. "Three dishes were set before me containing respectively pure butter, powdered soapstone., ami the butter adulterated with soapstone. 1 first butted the pure butto**. It was of very good qnlilitv. I next tasted tho powdered soapatono } ami hero is 1 a sample, taste for yourself. It is prne- • ileal ly tasteless. 1 took « bit ofjadultor- ! nted butter in my mouth, hut could j distinguish no difference between it and the pure article. 1 wan then asked to purchase n quantity of the adulteia tod article, hut 1 declined to do so. , A great ado is made uliout 'honest Western butter,' and this is the way some » f it is made. By this process tint packers obtain the market price of butter on the , j soApstone article, which costs them but : 1 rent a pound to adulterate. The con- [ | sume.rs nro paying for and eating about one-seventh of a pound of soapstone in 1 every pound."

"~"r Hotandfelf The Yabtixu Effect mr Djffxeskt Kinds of Bath#. ) k- ' I . "<• « J*> .1 *7^^; raaHMHr.t The London Lancet in u recent, number points out the difference between the effects of hot and cold- baths. The effects of the cold hath, it being mainly due to impressions made upon the cutaneous nerves, the modification* of the cold bath largely depend on their power of increasing its stimulating action. The colder the water tho more violent the impression. The frequent change of water, such ns is found in tho sea or in running Streams, increasing the stimulating "effect. Great force of impact, as when water falls from a height or comes forcibly through a hose upon the body ; the division of the stream, as is seen in shower-baths and j needlerbaths ; und the addition of acids | or salt to the water, all act, it would j seem, by increasing the stimulating • power which the water exerts upon tl|e | cutaneous nerves. Waiin baths produce an effect upon the skin directly contrary to that brought about by cold \vnte|\ The cutaneous vessels dilate immediately under the influence of the heat, uiuL although this -dilution is followed by u , contraction of the vessels, this con'trae- I tion is seldom excessive ; and the ulti- \ mute result of a ivarin bath is to crease i the cutiineous circulation. The pulse und resyration are both quickened as in the cold bath. The warm bath increases the temperature of the body, and by lessening tlio necessity for the internal production of heat, decreases the call mude upon cei$ain vital processes, and enables life to be sustained with u less expenditure of force. While a cold bath causes a certain stiffness of the muscles, if continued for too long a • time, a warm bath relieves stiffness 'and • , fatigue. The ultimate results of hot i and cold baths, if their temperature l>e t moderate, are about the same, the difference being, to use the words of Braun, l that "cold rcfroaho- by «timuU*t"mg tl<e . functions, heat by physically facilitating ■». them ; and in this lies the important practical difference between the cold f water and hot water systems." 1 Kimball PrincG I Co., I Yineland, N.
