Helminthology.

The history Of helminthology abounds
in illustrations Of the influence Of worms
in the production of diseases and in the
evaporation Of their symptoms, The
frequency of worms in the bodies of men,
their obviousness to the senses, together
with their very common connection with
enfeebled and morbid states of the ami
NAL economy, all tended to render them
an object Of interest from the remotest
periods, The very ablest minds have
been devoted to the study of these ento-
goa with the view Of discovering some
substance which was capable Of speedily,
safely, and permanently expeling them
from the human system. No fair-thinking
or conscientious observer can fail to
allow that these efforts have at last been
crowned with success The Worm Syrup
of Edward Wilder is true vermicide-a
genuine worm Destroyer bona fide YER
mifuge. Its taste is delightful. Its effects
are quick Its results unfailing. 1t is

says recent developments have satisfied
him that his resignation was hasty and
unnecessary step, and adds: = do not
hesitate to say that both the Republicans
and Democrats regard the whole tran
saction as unparalleled. Gen. Logan
said the day after my resignation that
the reason why he did not report reso-
luton of censure instead of expulsion
was because he did not believe 1t was my
intention to do wrong, and he did hope
would be returned to Congress, and
that he would be the first man to well
come my return. Such is the change al
ready, which, Of course, is balm to the
wounds inflicted The hope expressed
by very large number of members OF
the House that may be returnedto Con-
gress. is evidence that, while they were
pressed into a seeming acquiescence IN
this hasty action of a few hotspurs, they
are still openly friendly, and they ex-
press every confidence in my honesty
and integrity in this whole matter. l

The three great factors in this equation
of disease are solar heat, moisture, and
vegetable decomposition. Neither one
alone is capable of begetting the precise
condition necessary to produce sickness.
They must all coexist. The trio, if sep
arated, are harmless-together, they are
more potent for evil than any otherknown
agents. So long as they exist, just so
long will we have need of a medicine
which win overcome their pernicious
effects, SO long viii it be necessary to have
a remedy capable of meeting and beating
the insidious enemy; and of all known
agents for this purpose none is to COM
pare with that marvellous compound,

of ague, as cure is guaranteed in every

OLYMPIC THEATRE-At this theatre Monday night
was the first performance OF the laughabe comedy
or tho ''Serious Family" and the nautical farce of
"The Sprnre" In both pieces Mr.. G. L. Fox was
the principal comedian. Mr.. Fox Is so well known
to an American audience that It Is only needful to
say that he fully supported last night his well earned
reputation. "The Serious Family" is well directed
v0lley Of sarcasms on the class OF people who
ignore the pleasant and laugnable side OF human
nature, and the cardinal doctrine Of whose life s an
apt Illustration that this world Is waste bowling
wllderness.n The sarcasm OF all this was well
characterized by Mr.. Fox In his Aminadab Sleek
and he was thoroughly supported in this porrature
oy Miss Ida Vernon IN Mrs. Ormsy Delmaine. and
Mrs. Edward Wright In Lady Creamley. A little
license must be given to first night representation
but we shall be greatly surprised II this piece
does not have very favorable run OF good many
nights. 1t is piece well worthy OF the patronage
OF large class and we can promise those who visit
this theatre during its performance considerable en-
tertainmenr and instruction. The nautical farce OF
''Sptnrc' Ii piece OF very short duration, but
the make up" anu the .'scenic effect'' are much
beyond those which are generally found in
plays Mr.. Fox appears in this also, and also Mr..
cunningham and Miss LongmOre. all or whom are
worthy OF ali Inc applause they received.
