France and Northern Italy, although the climate is more genial, on account of the greater dryness of the atmos- phere. Pine Ridge is about 100 miles from the seaboard, and about 70 miles below Raleigh. After careful investi- gation Mr. Tufts purchased 5,000 acres, and will eventually fence in 800 for his town, although at present only 100 acres have been enclosed.

No time has been lost in getting the place into habitable condition. Mr. Tufts bought the property in June Since then an army of carpenters, la- borers and gardeners have been at work Mr. Tufts has ordered from France more than 30,000 shrubs and trees, and will also cultivate extensive- ly the water oak of Florida.

The scope of the scheme is broad and comprehensive. The proposed town 1s nearly seven miles from a railroad, and an electric road will be built to it, with cars electrically heated, so as to be perfectly comfortable, even for invaiids, in the coldest weather. Be- fore the Ist of December it is hoped that the place will be able to accom- modate at least 200 or 300 peopie.

The cottages are all more carefully built than the best of permanent houses of people in that section of the south. They are all painted inside and out, are provided with open fireplaces or stoves, and the rooms will not vary much from 12 by 18 feet each. Every cottage, and the rooms in evert suit in the apartment houses, will have running water and electric lighis, and every room and every cottage will be completely furnished, excepting only bed and table linen. The streets of the (own will be lighted by are lamps. The uits in the apartment houses will vary in size from two rooms upward, and every suit will be provided with the necessary means of carrying en light yw full housekeeping, even down to the two-room suits. The rental will demonstrate whether or not this en- erprise ts a money-making scheme».

The charges will be from $85 upward 2 year, including electric light, water and furniture. The electric lighting will be continued only for 13 weeks in ach year, but the occupants of cot- tages or suits may remain there for the entire year, if they so elect, sup- plying their own lights, for the same rental.

The water of the town fts obtained from tubular wells, located at a dis- tance from the town site, and abso- lutely protected from contamination. The analysis of the water has demon- strated beyond question its purity. A complete system of drainage has been devised. Nearly every room in every house has an open fireplace or a stove, and some of the houses Have bath- tubs. A fire «engine will be in ‘town, and an abundant supply of water ts assured for every emergency. Mr. Tufts will also erect a union chapel; a schoolhouse, where a private school will be maintained for primary and normal classes, a casino, wh re danc- ing and other forms of amusement will be possible. A reputable physician has been engaged to settle there, and his fees will be moderate in keeping with the spirit of the enterprise. A charge of $1 will be made for professiona? calls, and 50 cents will be charged for cffice cal’s. There are also telephone connections with outlying towns.

It is said that it will be perfectly feasible for two people, occupying two rooms, where they can do their own housekeeping, even to the washing, to live for about $8 a week. A large hotel will also be erected, where those of means may live as expensively as they desire.

Mr. Tuft’s purpose is not to fufrnish free homes for any one. The impres- sion cne gets from him is that he hopes to make the project barely self-sup- porting, with no hope of realizing any- thing from his invistment. He pro- poses to help people to help themselves: intends that Pinehurst shall be an ideal home for rest and recuperation, der conditions favorable toration of health. The remain under private control, and no houses or lots will be sold.—Boston Correspondent New York Tribune

Old Bet,

Gen. Neal Dow says that he recalls very well the first elephant exhibited in this country, the famous beast, O14 Bet. He went to see her when a boy in Portland, somewhere between 1815 and 1820. The most interesting part of Gem. Dow’s reminiscence is how Old leet died. According to his recollection. she was shot on a highway somewhere rear Alfred in York County, by a far- mer, who professed to be indignant be- cause of the amount of money her own- ers were taking out of the state. Maine vas then, perhaps, without exception, the poorest portion of the country, and even the quarters which were collected by the owners of Old Bet represented a ccnsiderable portion of the rcady money of the people.

which she wes suppos«d to have been endowed.” “If cattle were suppose@ to have been bewitched, it was custom- ary, till quite recently, to burn one of the herd, usually a calf, both for the protection of the others and to detect the bewitcher. For it was supposed that while the animal was being burn- ed he would be certain to appear on the spot, and if he could not get the animal's heart into his possession he lost his power in the future. It was believed that if cattle which died of disease were buried ore would be lost for each one so treated Dust was also efficacious in such cases. Thus, Train remarked that “if a person suppo vec ft have the evil eye passed by a herd of cattle. and one of them were taken suddenly ill, the owner of the cattle would hasten after him and take the dust from his shoes. if possible, or, if not, from the ground he had just troa- den, ané apply it to the sick beast: or even if an animal were taken ill without anyone endowed with the evil eye having passed near It, it would probably be cured by the dust from the threshold of a person close by who was notoriously a possessor of the evil eve.”—The Antiquary.

PASTEUR'S BOLD EXPERIMENT,

His Demonstration With the Splenic Fever Virus a Memorable Triamph of Genius in Science,

The secret of attenuation had thus become an open one to Pasteur. He Iaid hold of the murderous virus of splenic fever and succeeded in render- ing it not only harmless to life, but a sure protection against virus in its more concentrated form. No man, ‘n my opinion, can work at these subjects s® rapidly as Pasteur without falling into errors of detail. But this may eccur while his main position remains inipregnable. Such a result, for ex- ample, as that obtained in the pres- ence of so many witnesses at Melun must remain an ever memorable con- cvest of science. Having prepared his attenuated virus, and proved by labor- atory experiments its efficacy as a pro- tective vaccine, Pasteur accepted an invitation at Melun from the president of the Society of Agriculture to make a public experiment on what might be called an agricultural scale. This act of Pasteur’s is, perhaps, the bold- est thing recorded in the book. It nat- urally caused anxiety among his cal- leagues of the Academy, who fear2d tLat he had been rash in closing with the proposal of the president.

But the experiment was made. A ficck of sheep was divided into two gioups, the members of one group be- ing all vaccinated with the attenuated virus, while those of the other group were left unvaccinated. A number of cows were also subjected to a precise- ly similar treatment. Fourteen days afterward, all the sheep and al! the ccews, vaccinated and unvaccinated. were innoculated with a very virulent v.rus; and three days subsequent more than two hundred persons assemblei to witness the result. The “shout of admiration,” mentioned by M. Radot, was a natural outburst under the cir- cumstances, Of 25 sheep which had nor been protected by vaccination, 21 were already dead, and the remaining four were dying. The 25 vaccinated sheep, on the contrary, were “in full health and gaiety.” In the unvaccinated cows irn.tense fever was produced, while the prostration was so great that they were unable to eat. Tumors were also formed at the points of tnoculation. In

the vaccinated cows no tumors were formed; they exhibited no fever. nor even an elevation of temperature,

while the power of feeding was unim- paired. No wonder that “breeders of cattle overwhelmed Pasteur with ap- plications for vaccine.” At the end of 1$81 close upon 34,000 animals had been vaccinated, while the number rose in 1883 to nearly 500,000.—November R:2- view of Reviews.

A friend writes me from Paris that the mendicants in that city have ree- uiar “Directories of Benefactors,” tn two editions—a small one at 60 cents and a large one for $1.20. These books give the names of persons known to be benevolent, also their religion ana political faith; aiso the hour at which they may be found at home, ete. The “religious racket’”’ is very remunera tive, it seems. An old ragpicker at Clinchy lately confessed that last win ter her child was baptized 12 times In Protestant churches and 10 times in Catholic ones; each time the mothe: received one franc and a new dress. When epidemics are raging the beggar asks for contributions, on the plea that his or her offspring is down wit diphtheria, croup, etc., and many peo- ple quickly respond, in order to get rid of What they believe to be a very dangerous class of people.—Vanity.
