Scrofulous poison is one of the most destruc-
tive enemies of our race. Often, this. unseen and
unfelt tenant of the organism underlnines the con-
s%titution, and invites the attack OF enfeebllng or "a.
tai diseases, without exciting q suspicion, of its
presence. Again, it seems to breed infection
throughout the body, and then, on some favorable
occasion, rapidly develop into one or other Of its
hideous forms, either on the surface or among the
yitals. In the latter, tubercles may be suddenly
deposited in the lungs or heart, or tumors formed
in the liver, or it shows its presence by eruptions
on the skin, or foul alterations on some part of
the body. Hence the occasional use of a bottle
Of this S~arsGpGsilfn is advisable, even when no

at the station, was run into from the
rear by the iast-movlng Express train
from Portland. Twenty four persons
were killed and from thirty to forty
more Or less injured. 1t was horrible
occurrence, and there appears to be not
the least excuse for the engineer of the
Express train, who had warning and
orders regarding the accommodation
train ahead Of him, and yet recklessly
drove forward at full speed, until the
catastrophe occurred. Another similar
collision occurred at Westport, Penn,
On the Philadelphia and Erie Railway,
on Saturday, between a mail train from

West, killing both conductors, one of
the engineers and three Others, and in

ged husband at Cheyenne, Wyoming
Territory. where female suffrage and
the political and social appurtenances
thereto appertaining are recognized,
denounces the female jury business
through the Cheyenne LeaGer, and in
justification offers pertinent scrap from
his domestic history. His wife was
summoned and impauneled as juror in
an important case. When night came.
the case not being concluded. the hus
band applied to the court to have his
wife sent home, as they were several
small children there requiring her at
tention--the smallest. in fact, being in
starving condition, owing to the fact.
that it had not been habituated to the
use of the bottle. But the husbands
request was denied The Judge said
the jury could not be separated The
husband then requested permission to
send the infant to the mother. This
was also refused, on the ground that the
law does not permit q thirteenth person
in the jury room, and there is no statute
to show that an infant in arms is not
''person" within the intent and meaning
of the law. The desperate husband
then attempted to induce the court to
send all the Jurors to his house for the
night, but the effort was a failure, and
the husband was informed that quarters
had been provided his wife at the hotel,
and if he wished to speak to her for a
moment, he would have to take the
place of cook The husband went home.
How he got through the night is not
told. but when he learned the next day
that the trial was like y to last a week
he straightway proceeded to employ the
best-looking housekeeper and cook IN
the country. At last accounts his wife
was still on the jury
