PREVENTION OF SCARLET FEVER
A Baltimore paper says: LAS this dis
ease frequently makes its appearance at
this season of the year, we feel that we
cannot do our readers q better service
than to give the following preventive,
communicated some time ago in an in
teresting letter, by DR.. p. O. Cherbon-
nier of this city, giving q history Of its
successful use in Europe. It may be adj
ded that after this communication ap-
peared the prescription was put up by
various druggists Of Baltimore, and we
learn that it is the testimony of every
one of them that, at time when scarlet
fever was very prevalent here, not a
single case occurred where his prescrip-
ton was followed. DIR. Cherbonnier is a
graduate of the University of Paris, and
one OF the most skilled and accomplished
physicians and heightened gentlemen of
our city; Extract of bellandOnna, 2
grains; cinnamon water, ounce; alcO-
hol, 10 drops. Give two or three times
q day. Dose, one drop every year of
the age of the child; ten drops win be
the maximum Dose"

The Washington correspondent OF the
Albany Journal says of leading mem
bers of Congress: Instead of having
time for social enjoyment or to attend
to parties of pleasure or places of
amusement they are kept busy far into
the hours that should be devoted TO rest,
in consultation with each other and ar
ranging plans of procedure for the COM
ing days of legislation for the benefit of
the country" And the poor, confiding
Congressional wife viii read this in her
distant home and believe that her dear,
good, patriotic husband is day and night
working himself to death for the good
of his adored country, while perchance
that same patriotic dray-horse of hus-
band Is having the jolliest sort of a jolly
time with the girls, or game Of poker
and bottle of whisky.
