The MNaxRRe.

The first annual message of Governor
Ludington, delivered 10 both houses of the
Legislature last Thursday, is plain, manly
and outspoken document, filled with good
common sense, and in every particular
highly characteristic of the blunt and hon.

on the member Of both parties and the re-
concentrations it contains are worthy of
due consideration from our legslsto rs
Governor Ludington starts cut well, and
the people of Wisconsin can rest assured
they have governor worthy Of honor and
respect. The message will be touad on the
inside OF tins week. REPUBLICAN, and We
besreak for it perusal from all our readers.

Lohmiller not finding his epring on the
marsh just suitable for trout breeding, has
removed the fish to the farm of William
Becher in the town Of Sumner, where some
very fine springs have been arranged for
their reception aud the fish are doing nice
w.. These springs form one of the most
natural breeding places for trout. VIM.

Capt. Lohmiler in their business and we
have no doubt of their excellent success in
this new location.
Last week on complaint of VIM. Coad,

! missed money from his trunk. So on a
certain night he got Fred Hansen to con-
ceal hi mself under the bed, while he locked
the house and went ont to milk. Hausen's
testimony was to the effect that while be
was under the bed Ellingw God entered the
house by unlocking the door and proceed
ed to the trunk and unlocked that also.
Ia endeavoring to get from under the bed
he made slight noise which alarmed
Ellingwood who ran sut of the house ana
into piece of timber. He swore positive
ly that Ellingwood was the mnn. The
Justice held the defendant to bail for trial
ut the term OF the next Circuit Court. Not
securing the required bail, he was commit
ted to Jail. His family are in the sorest
need, and should meet with attention from
our generous ones.

Scarlet Fever.

Good Health declares cit is as unneces-
sary for a child to die Of scarlet fever as it
is that it should be blind of cataract" 1t
illustrates by prescribing this treatment:
Undress the child and bring it to bed at the
very first sign Of sickness. Give it, If it
has already fever, nothing but sourish
warm lemonade, with some gum-arabic in
it. Then cover its abdomen with some
dry flannel. Take well-folded bed sheet,
and put it in boiling hot water; wiring it
out dry by means of dry towels, and put
this over the flannel on the child S abdo-
mel. Then cover the whole, and wait.
The hot cloth will perhaps require repeate,
heat. According to the severity of the
case, and its stage of progress, perspration
will commence in the child in from ten
minutes to two hours. The child then is
saved; it soon falls to sleep. Soon after the
child awakes, it shows slight s. mptoms Of
returning inclination for food; help its
bowels, if necessary, with injections OF oil,
soap and water, and its recovery will be As
steady as the growth OF green-h ouse
plant, if we'll treated.
