DIPTHERIi.

The Disease has become epidemic in many
parts of the country. Every one, especially
heads of families, should be on the watch and
prepared 10 meet the first symptoms with pro-
per remedies, to which the disease will be found
readily TO yield.
The word ''Diptheria" is derived from the
Greek ''Diptheria," which signifies emem-
brane," and was introduced in 1927 by Bret
toneau, OF Harris, as applicable TO peculiar
Inflammation of the lining of the throat and
wlndPpe, which produces a small "mem-
brane." The disease is an old one as a spor-
adlc disease, but is new one as an epidemic.
As IN cholera times every diarrhea may end in
cholera, and ought TO be treated, $50 now, every
every sore throat may become .ciPthelia," and
ought to be treated. IF this is attended 10,
there is little OF no danger in The disease The
throat, as soon as discovered to be sore, should
be instantly cauterized. Ordinary washes, or
mild solutions of caustic, ''do no good.' Have
eight grains Of nitrate of silver dissolved in a
drachm of water. Dip in this solution cam
ELS hair pencil OF mop, press the tongue with
the handle of spoon, and apply the mop or
brush freely to every part otthe throat that is
red. Once day is often enough and two,
and very often one application destroys the
disease.
The disease is accompanied with fever, and
in some cases with an eruption on the skin,
which covers the whole body. These symp-
tams generally disappear as soon as the disease
is checked

were frequent, about the middle of the 17tb
century. Attached 10 ts inside were two
