The SULPiUREc AcID CURE FOR DIP
EIA.--The Hamilton Spectator.
lSouth Australia) publishes details of
the "Greathead' cure for diptheria.
The disease is declared by Mr. Great
head to be of hytlr tel growth, and
that the germ of it floating about in
certain impure atmosphere were in
hailed by human beings. For a grown
person four drops OF sulphuric acid
diluted in three. quarters of tumbler
OF water. with a smaller dose for child,
rem. The effect of this treatment was
said to be instantaneous, the acid at
once destroying the parasites, and the
patient coughing up the distractions.
The papers have teemed with the &C
counts OF sufferers who had recovered
in few minutes by adopting the
''Grealhead treatment" Children, al
most previously in a dying state, were
decla red to be playing about within
ten minutes, and at moderate compu
tation some forty or fifty of these sud-
den reeoverics have been placed on
record with full particulars.

If there is one word in the Eng

is that OF Ma. There is sweet tender
ness about the name of Ma that the

the influence of that blessed name still

tiny feet in their first struggles; it is
our Ma vino teaches the pra,tling

and it is our Ma who, as we advance in
mature life, through all the stages of
youth implants within up the purer

The Results Of Being Run Over in Fairs.


Luch Hooper writes from Paris to
the Philadelphia Press: 81 have spoken
before of the odd law they have here,
by which person, on being run over
while crossing the street, is obliged, If
not killed, to pay fine for obstructing
the public highway; and a very pecu-
liar and oppressive instance of its en-.
torcement came to my knowledge the
other day, A little child, the offspring
orpoor couple residing in one Of the
minor streets running out of the ayenuc
Josephine, while playing in the middle
Of the street, was knocked down and
run over by passing carriage. and in
stantly killed. The bereaved parents,
in addition to their sorrow for the loss
of their child, were condemned to pay
tine OF 100 francs, for not having kept
the child ont of the street. 1t is a
marcel to me that somebody is not
killed every hour in the day in Paris,
SO numerous are the vehicles, so reck--
less are the drivers, and so furious the
pace at which the horses are driven
There is no law against fast driving
here, and pedestrians have no rights
which characters are bound to respect.
Down they will charge point, blank at
the promenader who may be crossing
the street, shrieking Care! or 'Hayl'
but never turning hands breadth
either to the right or to the left to
avoid going straight over him. The
omnibus drivers are as bad as the rest,
and not long ago lady was run over
by crowded omnibus on the Rue du
Faubourg St. Honere, and so badly
crushed that she died in few hours.

the city for the crime OF causing the

Cox spoke to large and attentive au-
dience Monday evening. Every one
present was more than pleased with him
and his speech. If Maj. Strait carries
this county by two hundred and fifty
majority, shall be disappointed. If l
may judge by the way it looks in this
town. Cox will carry the county.
Senator Window spoke here last
night, to an audience about the same
number that Cox had the night before.
Maj Strait was in town but not on the
platform with the Senator. His friends
took pity on him and did not call on
him for speech. The Senator, in
speaking of Maj. Strait, said he was not
acquainted with him, and thought he
was as capable Of doing this District as
much good as any man the party could
have nominated. This is regarded as a
high compliment to such men as Gordon
E. Cole, Senator Buckham, General
Hubbard and many others, really able
men in the Republican party in this
District!
The Senator admitted, that the Re-
publican party had made some mistakes
down South, but said he, if their fore
sight had been as good as their hind
sight, they would not have fallen into
these blundcrs, and he now proposed
that the people keep them in office UNI
til their foresight become equal to their
hind-sight.

took place about six months after the

Of the session as in Dunnell's case.
Moreover, public opinion justified the
increase on account of the great addi-

ROCKFORD, Sept. 81, 1874.
Editor of the Anti Monopolist:
The County Agricultural Fair held at
this place last week was a success in
every respect. The entries largely ex-
ceeded those of last year; the attend
ance and consequently the receipts are
entirely satisfactory. Floral hall was
a splendid sight; the exhibition Of
fruits, cereals and vegetables could not
be beaten. But the horses, sheep and
swine, although in large numbers. They
were rather of an inferior quality.
There is however move now being
made by the farmers to improve this
stock. The Fair will be held here next
year and we expect to show great inn
provements in the stock line. The So
ciety will pay in full all premiums and
have surplus left.
Bill Kings short-horns were not on
exhibition, and did not take any prem
iums. But one of them, W. II. H.
Taylor of Hennepin county, delivered
the address, such as it was. He COM
menced with that old WORKOUT llustra-
ton of the Garden of Eden. Adam
and Eve were Changers. Political action
was the for hidden fruit; the Anti-Mo-
nopolist was the Devil, and so on. and
so on. How contemplate for such
politicians to crowd themselves upon an
Agricultural Society as public speakers
and advise Patrons not to NEEDLE with
politics; and yet nearly every sentence
of Taylsr's address showed him to be a
partizan politician of the meanest kind.
If Brother Taylor. in his
political speeches, wants IL
lustrations from Scripture,
We can assist him little. Ia his

Cox Among the Farmers.
ScIorA, Dakota Co., Mimi.

october 9th, 1914.
Editor Anti-Monopoltst:
DEAR SIR: In conjunction with
numbers of others, am pleased to see
the course you are pursuing in the
ANT1-MoNoPoL1sT in supporting Mr.. Cox
for Congress. While we, in this i'm
mediate vicinity, were in hopes that
our ''genial and able friend, Mr.. Bar
ton,' would have been the nominee Of
the Shakopee Convention, he being our
first choice, yet we believe that in the
multiplicity of numbers there is Wis
dom and we think that the standing
and character of the delegates compos-
ing that Convention is sure guarantee
that the choice made is correct one.
While spending few hours in the
Senate chamber last winter my conclu-
sions were that Mr.. Cox is not only a
scholar of no mean type. but also a
gentleman, and that he would fifty rep
resent us in the United States Con.
gress. What wish to say now is,
that as the St. Paul Pioneer has gone
over to the enen y, and is sailing under
false colors, claiming to be Democratic
and receiving Democratic support, and
yet all the while working for the enemy
as freely as the St. Paul Press does, it
is about time that the Opposition was
casting about for representative or
gan. And we can see no reason why
the ANT1-MoNoPoLIsr is not capable of
advocating our cause. 1t is ably con-
Quoted, consistent in its arguments, and
popular with the farmers and the labor
ing classes generally.
What wish to say to the friends of
Reform throughout the District is
this. that you, one and all, who have
had your men picked out as candidates
and have been disappointed, lay all per.
sonal feelings aside, and put forth your
best effort for Mr.. Cox's election; and
rest assured that if you do, he can be
elected over this man Strait by hand
some majority. Your truly,
A. W. BIDDEIL.
