FEVER AND AGUE Prevented.

The sun-fower, planted around a
house in locality where intermit-
tents prevailed, was observed, before
the war, by gentleman connected
with the United States Government,
to protect the whole family from that
troublesome sickness. The subject
has been presented by M. Martin to
the French Society for the Promotion
of the General Health, and the Italian
Sanitary Officers have taken measures
to put the suggestion in operation in
the most sickly localities. While the
editor was medical student, it was
stated by Professor Cook that, in all
marshy countries, thick hedge of
vegetable growth, from ten to fifteen
feet high. should be had, some forty
or fifty feet from the dwelling, espe-
cially in the direction of stagnant
water, mill-ponds, or marshy places,
where there was growing and decay
ing vegetation. His theory was this,
that miasm was generated in ali such
localities; that in the morning and
evening, about sunrise and sunset,
this miasm was concentrated on the
surface of the earth, extending eight
or ten feet upwards, allowing it to be
breathed into the lungs, taken in up
on an empty stomach, engenderlng all
forms of intermittents and other more
dangerous fevers, diarrhea, dysente-
ry, and cholera; but that a thick, liv-
ing vegetable growth had been known
by him for many years, from actual
observation, to arrest the flow of mi
asm towards the house, and save the
inmates from disease.
The object in making this statement
at such length is to show that the abb
sorption of miasm was not peculiar
to the sun-fower, but that it was liv-
ing vegetation; and, as there are 9TH
er forms more luxuriant and more
dense than the sun-fower, such
growths are best and that these facts
were published in 1928, in John Esten
Cooks Therapeutics. 1t was further
suggested that the growth should not
be nearer the house, because it would
keep it damp, and, for the same rea-
son, that although it looked well to
see country house embowered and
almost hid by trees, it was not health
full !; that the sunshine should come
upon every part and side of dwell
ing in summer and winter, otherwise
disease would prevail; that the sun
light was everywhere great promo
ter of health.-Jou,naz of Health.

"But, my friend" said Bull, with a
trembling voice, chow much these
ebulitions of youthful affection re-
mind me of my childhood's days
Look at me while 1 weep; listen to
those bona tide tears as they go patter

loved ones gomez"
81 give it up!v said frey Nose, af-
ter few moments calm and patient
thought.
Don't you recollect how we used
to go out ON the trail, and capture lit
tie children and gouge their eyes out,
and chop 'em into bits, and then come
home and learn our catechisms, and
knife our next door neighbor, and
then pray to the great Manitou before
we went to bed. All! those were
happy, happy days, and we were
hilarious little Injuns, weren't we?
But now these things are changed
with the irrevocable past, you can bet
they are?"
"You're drunk amt you?" asked
frey Nose. .s You're talking drivel;
where do you get your fire-water ?"
To this Buffalo Bull deigned no re-
ply but pretending to see something
on the top-knot of frey Nose, he
asked him to stoop down a minute
while he picked it off. He then CLAN
destinely jerked out his scalping knife
and lifted his Lair, after which he
jabbed the knife into his vitals, and
then threw him on the CRATE to die.
just then the Prairie Flower re-
turned with the tobacco, and per-
ceiving at glance that her parent
was reduced to cinder, she observed
to Buffalo Bull that it seemed to be
| pretty well up with the old man.
"Hm'm! Yes," said he; but a
thought strikes me-will you be
mine 2"
"Well, I don't know let me see
what was your income for last year ?"

a Barlow knife, aud thfrty-seven
scalps. Besides I love you to distrac-
ton. Come to this loving heart rest
on my bosom-rest! Say, will you?''
"I am ever thine own," said Prairie
Flower, as she nestled closely against
his hunting shirt.
And on her lovers arm she leant,
And round her waist she felt it fold;
he said, I" 1 do not care a cent?
She said, " I'll bet he finds he's soldr'
Thus are these two aboriginal saw
ages made happy in the fullness OF
each others love. She grew old and
ugly in time, and he, in the depths OF
his unspeakable affection, used to sill

wheeled home potatoes in push cart

raised its length-one of six feet three

SAFETY from moths for furs con-
sists in having them undisturbed
through summer in a snug place.
Muff boxes are not secure. Taking
them out occasionally to air exposes
them to the moth. No pepper, cam
phor OF tobacco is needed; after you
have worn them for the last time in
the spring put them into linen pill
low-case, tie up the end in a tight
knot, and shut them up in a drawer
which will not be often opened. A
true and tried prescription.
