About Infants in Summer,

The New York Tribune has some
very sensible remarks for the season,
which will be found as valuable in this
locality as in New York. That journal
says:
."Summer after summer, teething
dren fall in hecatombs, sacrificed to the
ignorance or carelessness of their par
ents. This year, however, as last, in
structions have been published by the
boards of health in some neighboring
cities, by which the most indicated
mother may understand how to protect
her child from dangers as far as posi-
BILE during the season of heat and foul
air. The directions are based upon
plain principles of common sense, which
we suppose would be patent to anybody
of ordinary intelligence, but which are
unfortunately the very facts soonest
ignored and neglected. Washing might
be called the basis of baby's salvation
through teething; a thorough sousing
of the little body in plenty of cold
water every morning, and when the
weather is extremely rot, tepid sponge
bath at night washing, too, constantly,
of all clothes and cloths used by the in
| FAINT, to afford it perfectly clean gar

given should be thoroughly sweet and
cool infants, under two years, should
be restricted in their diet to milk, oat
meal mush or cruel carefully prepared
and beef broth or minced raw beef il
small quantities. There is a popular
prejudice among uneducat9d womer
against the "meanness of refusing fooc
to their children which they eat them
selves, to which is owing one-half the
deaths among that class of infants. The
swarms of sallow, puny, wien faced
babies which we see at the doors o
tenement houses, are fed on morsels O
pork, vegetable, unraised bread, ant
occasional sips of tea, which may fall tt
their mothers lucky lot. It is not heat
or malaria, or teething, against which
the doctors have to contend, so much al
the obstinate ignorance of the parents
Fresh air is, of course, tonic and cure
superior to any medicine-every hou
passed by the child under the trees il
the squares, or on the rivers, gives it
new chance for life. No anodynes o.
soothing syrups should be given, ex
cept under medical direction"

An Important Invention,

A correspondent of the V1cksburg
Herald gives an account of a new in
vention now in practical operation in
Mountain Cotton Mills, near Bolton
Station, on the Memphis and Charles
ton railroad, which, if it proves to be
all that is represented, must have a
more important effecG upon the produc-
ton and manufacture of cotton than
even Whitney's cotton gin has had. 1t
does away with the ordinary process of
ginning, converting the cotton just as it
is taken from the field into thread of
superior quality. It costs only $3.50,
and it attached to the ordinary card
stand, It is said that specimens of
thread made by this machine have been
sent to nearly all the northern manu-
facturers, and have been pronounced
stronger and more lustrous than that
spun by the ordinary mothod. 1t is
claimed that a thread spun by this
means will sustain fully one-third more
weight than thread of equal size made
of cotton that has passed through the
processes of compression and compll-
Gated machinery of common cotton
mills. The great importance of the in
ventioD, however, consists in the fact
that by its cheapness and simplicity 1t
may be introduced into common use,
the natural result of which will be to
transfer the whole work of cotton spin
ming from manufactures to the cotton
fields. thus effecting a great saving In
the cost of packing and transportation,
and in other expenses.

A Forgotten City.

The late Lieut.. GARNER discovered
last year in CamDodia, the ruins of a
great ancient city, Angeor. These ruins
are of extraordinary magnifcence, both
in point of extent and architectural
splendor. The sides of the principal
temple measure no less than two miles
and quarter IN circumference, and the
remains of endless roads, buried in for
ests and jungle, contain monument af-
ter monument, leach, if possible, more
astonishing than the preceding" The
architecture and sculpture of this for
gotten city exhibit very advanced
knowledge of the arts, and the great
temple is described as the masterpiece
of some unknown Michel Angelo. An
geor must have been one of the great
est cities of the globe, and yet of its
history no account remains. Nothing
is known of its past, save that Chi
pese traveller, in the year 1902 men

The physicians who have been acting
as a coroner's jury in the case of
William Mccormick, who died in New
York, of hydrophobia, June %, have
broug ht their investigation to close
and given a verdict. They say: "We
have been unable to establish conclu-
sively by what dog the disease was con-
veyed to Mccormick. We regard n.y.
drophia as a disease communicated only
by incubation with species of virus
and not capable of transmission from a
non rabid animal. AS a means of pre-
vention, we recommend that persons
bitten by any dog or any animal shall
at once, if the wound is received in a
part where it is proper to practice ex-
cision, to have the wounded part thor
oughly excised, and that the wound be
allowed to bleed for few moments in
a basin of warm water, and finally that
the wound be cauterized with nitrate of
silver. nitric acid, caustic potassia, hot
iron or burning coal, In case a surgeon
cannot be found to practice the excis-
ion, the patient should apply cord
above the wound and then suck the
part, provided he has no e1corations in
his mouth, and at the first opportunity
apply some one of the caustics men
toned. At any period prior to the de-
vclopment of the disease, it will be
proper to excise the cicatrix and eau
teriza.'

About Horses

The present racing season that has
just fairly opened has proved the most
disastrous for many years to the own
ers of valuable horses. The list of cell
ebrated racers killed or disabled in their
prime was already a long one, when
news came that Tom Bowling, king of
the turf, had ruptured one of his ten
dons of his left foreleg. His name
must be added to those of Asteroid,
Longfellow, Hubbard, Milesian, Duffy,
Weathercock. True Blue, Victor, and
Tammany. The owner of Bowling had
refused an offer of $4,000 for him.
Now the broken down champion leaves
the field to Springbok, Preakness, and
Wanderer-his only rivals among the
multitude of racers.
The many incidents that have hap
pened to celebrated horses suggest the
question whether in the course of train
ing that had been adopted in this coun-
try, too much stress is not laid upon
speed and too little attention paid to
the intelligence of the animal The
system of preparation for the field is
entirely artificial. There is no attempt
to train in gentleness. Only the Sec
onds of time are taken into considera-
zion. Nothing is thought of but a
grand burst of speed in the briefest
possible space of time, and the money
is to be made by it. In Bowling's case
the training developed every vicious
propensity of the brute, and he could
with difficulty be brought down to his
work when required In the case of an
animal possessing so much intelligence,
it would naturally be thought that an
| educatiOD and deva1OOuont of his in
stincts (Which some would go SO far as
to call his reasoning faculties) would be
of advantage to the owner as we'll as to
the beast. It would be worth while to
make change and try another method,
for the present system leads inevitably
| to disaster.
There is another view of the subject
that deserves also careful consideration.
AS he is reared now the racer is as ten.
der as greenhouse plant. The slight,
est slip of the foot is liable to lame
him for life. His training is so unnat-
ural and the strain put upon his pow
ers is SO severe that the exposure of 8
moment may work him deadly harm.
For this reason it happened that Bowl.
ing broke down in the tendon of his
leg while taking his daily exercise
Longfellow, Asteroid, and Hubbard
have suffered their injury in the same
place. A mere fibre hung between theil
fame as kings of the turf and life Of
uselessness. It will continue to be sc
while the present system of training re
mains in vogue. Cannot the owners o.
valuable horses be convinced that re
form in this direction will put money il
their pockets?
