VACCINATION.
BA1TIMoRE. Oct. 90 1903

BALTIMORE. Oct 90, 1928.
DEAR SIR--in accprtlance with your polite re-
quest, present you with very summary outline
Of my views of the prophylacc power OF caccida-
ton against small pox.
1t is we'll known that the vaccine postue leaves
cicatrs or scar quite as distinct aud somewhat re-
sembing that from small pox they differ, however,
very obviously, when closely examined.
The varolous pit, has radated appear
ance, Or sulcated lines of deep red extending
from the centre to the circumference. The vaccine,
instead of those dark burrows has circle of astral
marks uf still deeper colour Immediately within
the margin of the scar. These putei, dots. or marks
about cqui distant, and in case the disease has
run an uninterrupted course. constitute perfect
circle with central pnlnt but if the vesice or
pustule has been irjnred before d,quamatlon, the
astral points may not form entire circle
The more perfect this circle the better still if
| there are but one or two well defined marks with
the periphery. we have sufficient to pronounce
the genuine vaccine sequela. Ii none are
found, notwithstanding the progress of postuation
may have been regular, we may, confidently pro-
nounce it spurious.
There may be cases in which accident, or the per-
verseness of the patient has so far disturbed the
course of the disease, as ohave induced phleemon.
Gus inflammation, to such extent, as to obliterate
the vaccine signature, but these may readily be
distinguished by the ragged or irregular margin in
oue" N"0.'" 80 w ''hPoo'o'c W ueciue, except ny
re-nsertion of the virus and even then the case
must, IN case 1t had been genuine, forever remain
uncertain, because there being no characteristic
mark at first, we are never able to determine the
necessity for revaccinaton.
These marks do, in some instances wear out,
when and when only, the patient becomes again OBJ.
noxious to either sort Of disease. The time employ.
ed in the obieration of these marks is very inde-
finite. The shortest period have observed, was
five years, but in many instances have seen them
distinct after 80 years, and doubt not that in the
majority, they remain perfect in the longest life.

PRACTICAL EFFECTS OF THE TARIFF.

of Augusta, 10 his correspondent in the city of Char
lesion, S. Cit is dated 26h September, 1928.
The noise now making about the Tariff, think
will end in smoke When the people find they can
get their clothing cheaper than the last year,
they will settle down and be conented. | have
bought in my negro clothmg and shoes, 10 per cent.
lower this, than the last year, and Ssa'yper cent less
than when imported the former, direct from Eng-
land few years ago and the fabric is at least 10
per cent. better IN wearing. And besides, what has
our Tariff to do with the fall in price of al! the Cot
tons raised in other parts of the world 1t is all
madness and folly. The whole secret is, we raise
too much of it, and ought 10 turn our attention to
