Ar. Fruit. Healthy In dine OF onolsrai

One OF the most sensible and respectable men in the
whole OF Boston came TO the other day
10 know whether thought sale 10 eat fruits in time OF
cholera Why, should almost think OF raising
the question whether not the OF bread is safe du
ring the cholera, And yet am not ignorant that some
substances They men, however, for the most part
who have not thought and reasoned much; or may be
that they have been led TO charge quality what belongs
to quantity the perfect article what only belongs to
mperecton in the article, TO error in regard TO the
manner OF receiving It,.
Fruits, next to bread, are the great staple in human
diet. OF this there be no reasonable doubt They
not only may be eaten freely but shoaid be. Used in
proper manner, not only generally, but even in time OF
choora, they are not merely innocuous-they posi-
lively and greatly useful. They prevent disease.
Let me say, however, IN passing, that do not like
great and sudden changes in any OF our habeven ~

CHOLERA AND SULPHUR.

Some of the faculty handle DR.. Birds Cho-
lera Specific without rcmorsc, and it seems
wise prccaution, as far as health is concern
cd, for people TO wait and see whether this
professed cure is the certain remedy that
some enthusiastic physicians in the West rcp-
resent il to be. A communication in the Bal
timore Patriot, from 4 respectable physician,
treats of the new remedy in this style:
The statement of DIR. llcrrck is liable TO
severe animadvcrsion. Accordn. TO his ac-
count, he and Dr. Bird were led 10 infer from
The suggestion cf German chemist, rs to
the agency of Ozone in the production of i'll
fuenza, that il also might be the cause of
Cholera Having arrived at the norel and To-
gical conclusion by the mere force of genius,
the next step was TO find an aniidote, and
this ''ihe accurate chemical knowledge" of
DR.. Bird enabled him 10 "sllggcsl" NIphr.
How can any medical man believe that DR..
Hcrrick, editor of medical Journal, was so
ignorant of foreign medical literature as not
to know that this "infercncen as to the
t'Ozonic" origin of cholera, was SO familiar
as 10 have been already abundantly tested
and found to be idle And can any body
believe that DR.. Bird drew upon his 'accu-
rate chemical Knowledge for the suggestion
of sulphur as the antidotc, when the same
page of the ''periodicar' on which he proba-
bly read the article from Il German chemist,
.tgage 532, April number of the American
Journal of the Medical Scicnccs,) contained
also, the identical "sulphulous' suggestion
4 confess that my mfercnces from conduct
such as this do not incline me 10 place much
confidence in the report of the experiments
with sulphur, which follow the narration oil
the primary steps in this affair.
AS TO Ozone, it may be well to remark
that dligcnt search was made for it in The
air of the most crowded cholera hospitals, a'
well as in the external air of ST. Pctersburgh
during the late prevalence of the epidemic
I without the least Success, as may be seen by
The report of DR.. Muller 10 the llanovcrial
government. These experiments were made
n in ls4s, Just about a year before DIR. Herricl
and DR.. Bird drew their celebrated inference
Perhaps, however, il may quiet the nerve
of some of your timid readers TO know tina
upon experiment find no Ozone in our aimo
sphere.

PRESCRIPTION.

considerable amount of sympathy is
wasted about every four years upon the
gentlemen whom the chances of politics re-
move from official stations The New York
Tribune says
"We have no tears for those doomed by a
turn OF the political wheel 10 go out of office.
We never could squeeze oul a tear of COM
passion for the sorowing "victim,n who, af-
/ Ter having enjoyed the emoluments Of a pub
lie station for some years, is made to give

bic, he has share as one of the people. If to
hold il involve sacrifice, he has endured his
part, and ought to be relieved. If there il
any crying to be done in this case, let him
do it himself-at all events, he can have NJ
help from this quarter"
This is right We can excuse private grie
for loss Of an Office, but it is a little too mucl
to ask the whole public to join in. Wecom
mend the Tribune's remarks to the considera
tion OF the Washington Union, and hope the.
will prove dry handkerchief to its sorrows

THE AsIArIC CHOLERA.

An erroneous opinion prevails among many
persons that the Asiatic Cholera strikes its
victim with the suddenness almost of light,
ming. The fact is that there are few diseases
which give earlier or more certain warning
of their approach; and il is only after the pa
tient has laborcd under the incipient stages
for three or four days, that The final attack
occurs If The prcmonitory symptoms are
watched, cholera is comparatively harmless
indeed far less fatal than any other disorder
TO which mankind is subject.
The first indication of the approach of the
disease is hardness, or fulncss in the abdo-
men, beraying slight arrangement in the
organs there situated. If a glass of water is
taken, feeling of distress, or uneasiness en-
sues, generally Of light character, however,
and in consequence frequently disrcgarded
altogether, or soon forgotten. In time--on
the next day perhaps occasional pains shoot
through the stomach, and sensation Of nau-
sea is experienced Dianhua cnsucs, per-
haps vomiting, the day after, or in violent
cases, on the same day. Even though the
patient may have disrcgarded the former
symptoms, if he will now call in a physician,
and lake proper remedies, he is nearly sure
of recovery, more sure than person attack
cd with fever, or other ordinary disordcrs.-
1f, however, he ncglccis these lorewarnlngs,
violent cramp succeeds, and then there is
real danger.
The only peril, therefore, that exists, arises
from the carlessness of The public, supcrindu-
ced by the gen,lcness Of the disease in lis
earlier stages. II man is attacked with the
cramp, and dies in few hours, it is said that
he fell victim TO the cholera in a single
day! yet, in reality, if enquiry was insi,u-
ted, it would be found that he had been Ia
boring under the prcmoniory stages of the
disease for several days; and that the cramp,
which was considered the first, was in reality
the last assault of the enemy The lassitude
accompanying the earlier progress of the dis
order, joined TO the extreme mildncs of the
symptoms, induces frequently criminal
carclcssness, which leads TO the most fata
results. Yet, if the approaches of the disease
are watched, they are certain 10 yield Il
proper and timely treatment.
We still believe that the cholera is no
here cPidcmicolly. A few cases may have
occurred but even these look somewhat
questionable. In 1892 the rice-waicr dis
charge inlallibly accompanied the fatal stage
of the disease. We hear nothing of thi
symptom now; and without it there can b'
no Asiatic cholera. We have, every year
as many fatal cases of common choler
weekly, as the reported cases of cholera as
phyxia within the last week so that thcr
is scarcely more cause of alarm now than il
ordinary scasons.-BulIetin.
