CONSEQUENCES OF NEGLECT

Those who indOrse the stupid assertion that
"Catarrh will get well of itself" or is durable
by shutting or inhaing the n0strums in common
use, will do well to remember that the local dis
ease depends always upon Preventative e0Td'-
ton Of the blood.
Medical writers are wont to speak 81 Catarrh
as a simple local Inflammation, and both its i'm
portance and rational treatment are either
wholly ignored, or receive but passing notice
from the general practitioner; and thus Catarrh
as surely predisposes to Consumption as does
the day precede the night, and is in fact the
prelude to that disease in eight cases out OF ten.
Tho disease is everywhere prevalent; people
resort to such means as always fail, then give
heed to the popular fallacy That ii is incurable,
and settle into a sort Of mental apathy, encour-
aged by the belief that the family physician
knows all that is known on the subject; and
thus matters stand while the disease progresses
until hope is dead, and life becomes nOckery
when comes the stereotyped and hackneyed ad.
vice of "a visit to the country" "a change of
climate "a sea voyage" "a return of health
in the spring" etc; but, alas the country re.
ferred to is that which lies beyond the confines
of the fostering grave, and the spring is that
season which blooms eternal when life's tttul
fever is over.
Let those who doubt this portrayal of Catarrh
life is going down at noon, or watch its progress
upon those wEO neglect its timely and judicious
treatment. A little while and we miss their
coming; youth and health have faded from lips
and check, the light from the eye has gone out,
the hands are folded peacefully over the still
heart-they are gone.

A frightful velocipede accident is re-
ported in Cincinnati on Wednesday at
a velocipede school, in the fourth story
of building in Seventh street. AyoHng
man named Grier lost the control of his
machine, and it made for large hatch
way in the middle of the room. Going
at full speed, it ran against the wooden
guard around the opening, crashed
through the boarding, and precipitated
the rider to the cellar of the building,
four stories and half beneath. His fall
was somewhat broken by the velocipede,
winch 1t seems struck the ground first,
with him clinging to it; but notwith-
standing this favorable circumstance,
he received injuries which, it is feared,
may prove fatal.
