A Grateful Wife
Maternity Weakness,
SKAT
Rheumatic Fever, Depression-
Just sitting still and thinking everything possible has been done, does not suit Mrs. Wilson, for all the usual ways failing to restore her husband's health, she tried the Royal way--the Phosferine way. The benefit was immediate, for all the depression and weakness of rheumatic fever, which change of air, dist, and friends bad failed to relieve, diminished with avery dose of Phosferine. This triumphant outcome of Mrs. Wilson's devoted vigilance is typical of the exceptional efficacy of Pbosferine, but of still deeper importance is her assurance that before, during, and after child- birth she herself derived such an access of strength and vitality from Phosferine, that weakness, lassituds, or distress was not in any way experianced.
Decidedly Abolished.
Mrs. E. Wilson, 41, Bedford Road., Grays, Essex, writes My husband started taking Phosferine after a severe bout of rheumatic fever, and although he went away to the seaside for change of air failed to make any headway. He wrote complaining of always feeling tired and despondent, and doubtful as to whether he would ever be able to resume his business. I sent him a 2/9 bottle of Phosferine, and after a few doses, he felt a great deal of difference, and before his supply was finished was quite himself again and ready and able to do a hard day's work with anyone, I am also very grateful for the good Phosferine has done the in maternity weakness; before my child was born I took it regulaviv and it strengthened me wonderfully, the subsequent tax upon my constitution was not half so great as one would naturally expect. I am certain Phosferine taken by mothers is a great help both before and after child birth, as it supplies just the strength needful at this time, and moreover, imparta strength and stamina to both, and I assure you I am very proud of my beautiful baby girl"-February 8, 1910

A "FAKE" METRORITA, There is a curious tendency to pronounce every unfamiliar stone a meteorita. One morn ing last October a broken gate at Norwood, Hess, attracted attention, and was traced to a hard gray rook of 275 pounds, which was de clared to be still waria, and was soon exhibited in a dime manseira as a meteorite. Dr. E. O Hovey has since examined the mass, finding it to be ordinary dike rook-labradorite-porphyry

PLANT STIMULANTS AND POISONS, Besides the nitrogeneous manures and lim, and potash salts, other materials in the sul not as plant foods or stimulants, and some as pois, ons. Collecting the experience of numerous observers, René Viller, a French chemist, shows that manganese salts have much effect on plant growth, the sulphate having giran the best results, but the okloride and oxido also having exerted favourable nation. Experiments have ben tried with these salts on rice, whest, oats, harley, engar beets and flay. With 10 to 50 pounds of the salt per acre, yields have been usually increased from 25 to 50 per cont, but an excess-such as 100 pounds of the sulphata per aare-has) diminished the crop. As the pro portion of manganese is not alwa ye raised in the plants of increased yield, it is inferred that the benefit may be partly due to destruction of tering left in the soil by precoding crops. A similar action seems to be exerted by copper salta, so much used in fungicides, and the yield of maize has been increased from 27 to 86 per cent. by soaking the seed corn in a copper sulphate solution before planting. Zone salte, lujurious in any but minute quantity, have been found to promote the growth and multiplication of mould and yeast fungi and the germination of wheat. Al umins, applied to the ground as alum solution stimulated the growth of barley and flax; and magnesis increased the orop of grain, potatoes and beets, but chiefly by promoting the carmi lation of nitrogen.

ACETYLNE INHALATION
The physiological effects of acetylone, now so much used, have been studied by Grahant, who has prepared an artificial atmosphere of 79 volumes of acetylone and 21 volumes of oxygen, and has noted the notion of this mixture on sai mals breathing it. The acetylene proves to be much less poisonous than carbon monoxide whose effects in illuminating gas and as given off by coal fires are so well known. A pigeon in the acetyleno mixtura died in 30 minutes and a rabbit in 40 miantes, but a tortoise was un- harmed, and the arrested rospiration of a frog was restored on being brought into the open air.
