Wild chicory is bitterly hated by the farmer, but it will make a delightful salad, tender and wholesome. The virtues of the dandelion in this respect are now well kuowTn. Wild mustard, or charlock, another bane of the farmer, gives a delicious flavor to soup, as will pokeweed, which in France i3 cultivated as a vegetable, taking the place of bay leaves, sage, thyme and the Dock weeds are astonishingly hard to discourage, so in Europe they use both the broad leafed and curly leafed varieties' as table vegetables.

High. Samples of air at a height of nearly nine miles have been recently obtained and examined for the presence of the rare gases. The collecting apparatus, carried by a large balloon, is a series of vacuum tubes, each drawn out to a fine point at one end. At the desired height an electro-magnetic device, connected with each tube and operated by a barometer, breaks off the point df the tube, admitting the air. A few niinutes later a second contact "sends a current through a platinum wire round 1 the broken end, melting the glass and sealing the tube.
