ACure for DIpthsrin.

DR.. L. Luse, Of Wsttsburg, Pennsylvs-
mia, sends the following recipe for thscurs
Of that usually fatal disease known ss
diptheris
As this dreadful disease is In some
parts Of the country, and especially on the
Reserve, and most generally proves fatal,
I thought would send you q recipe for
diptheris which has, in my hands, been
very successful, If used in time, and one
which 1 have thoroughly tried, and know
whereof I speak. II has never failed in
cases where the treatment was commenced
before the diptheris membrane extended
into the ir-tubes, which is known BY the
great difficulty Of breathing and restless
ness. In such cases no remedy yet dis
covered will always effect cure; but if
the patient is watched, and this treatment
is used in time, there is no d;nger. The
treatment consists in thoroughly sWsbbing
the back Of the mouth and throat with q
wash made thus
Golden Seal, pulVerized, drsehm.
Chlorate Of Potash, pulveFiEed, i draohm.
Honey, strained, drsohms.
Put the two first named articles in 9 tes-
CUP, and pour tWo-thirds full OF boiling
yster; stir well, and then add your hon
eT. Swsb we'll the mouth and throat eve
~ half hour, or oftsner If necessary, and
be sure to touch every affected spot, uVuls,
tonsils and fauces, and let the patient
swallow q little Of the wash each time you
sWsb.
swsbbing causes no pain, though the
patient will gag and sometimes Voniti
but swsb well, and feeling Of relief win
follow every sWsbbing. Keep the wash
pure BY pouring what you use each tine
into another vessel, and also wipe on any
matter or slime that may be on the sEab
every time you take It from the mouth
and At the same time let the patient drink
freely Of red PsPPsr tea made strong. Rub
the following liniment on the throat cut
ride. once every two or three hours, and
Keep flannel cloth around the neck until
we'll: ~t1

MORNING LEADER
TUESDAY MORNING. APR. 10, Is54.



There are few things which the young
litersrily inclined men and women, IS
we'll as your bibliO .msnises, watch with
more interest than the appearance of new
books. There is a peculiar fascination
about every new phase Of the world Of
letters, because it indicates the progress OF
civilization and carries the mind back to
the sweet days when there was no stern
alarm Of war.
Among the best books recently issued
are "a Dictionary Of the Bible; compris-
ing lis Antiquities Biography, Geography,
and Natural History. Edited by William
Smith, LID, editor Of the Dictionaries Of
Greek and Roman Antiquities" "Bio-
graphy and Mythology" and biography"
In three volumes. Boston: Little, Brown
& Co. 1862"
This work will be of great interest to all
Biblical scholars. It is the most complete
work Of Its kind that has yet been pub
lished. The Independent says Of it;
awe can honestly recommend it to
clergymen, to Sunday school teachers, and
to all who are interested in bibliosl stu.
dies, as being by far the most complete
snd reliable compendium Of biblical know
ledge which has yet been published, and
one which is not likely soon to become OBJ
solete or to be superseded By anything
better. Every such person who can afford
to purchase the work will find himself
richly rewarded with an exhsustless store
Of interesting and useful information
"WOrk and Play" or " Literary Yarie-
ties Of Horace BUSHNELL published by
Charles Scribner of New York, is also a
work Of great value. Those who have
read either his "sermOns for the New
Life" or his mature and the Su9ernstu-
raj" will welcome this new book for the
freshness and originality Of its articles,
and for the variety Of its contents.
Another equally valuable book is emit
tied "Illustrstions Of Human Progress,
Series Of Discussions by Herbert Spencer"
Our readers are aware that Herbert spen-
Ger is one Of the first thinkers Of modern
times. he belongs to the same school as
thst Of Augustus Comte, the late Mr..
Buckle, John shortmill and Professor
Draper. We commend this new book Of
Herbert spencer's to the consideration of
ell thinking men.
