AN eminent physician of Western
city says he has cured ninety-nine out of
every hundred cases of scarlet fever by
giving the patient warm lemonade with
gum arabic dissolved in it. A cloth
wrung out in hot water and laid upon the
stomach should be removed as rapidly as
it becomes cool.
SPIDERS can be destroyed by no prep
aration we know Of fla person is anx-
ious to destroy them, the only way is to
kill them and break up their nests.
Fleas may be driven out of bed by
sprinkling in it camomile flowers. Oil
of pennyroyal will also drive them out.
For bedbugs, use equal parts of alcohol
and spirits of turpentine, in which cor
rosive sublimate is dissolved. Benzine
or gasoline will destroy them. They will
not stay in bed in which cedar boughs
have been placed. A weak solution of
chloride of zinc used as a wash will also

s. E. VALENTINE writes from Bluff
ton, Ind, that India rubber shoes and
boots are frequently made useless by
slight cut or hole, which little cement
would repair. To prepare the cement,
cut virgin or native India rubber with
wet knife into the thinnest possible
slices. Then with shears divide these
into threads as fine as yarn. Put small
quantity of these shreds (say one-tenth
or less of the capacity of the bottle) into
a wide-mouthed bottle, and fill 1t three
quarters full of benzine, of good quality,
perfectly free from oil. The rubber will

The fall OF this, the most important, Cariist
stronghold, is considered the end OF the re-
bellion... The Russian telegraph agency
publishes dispatch stating that no alliance
has been formed between Russia, Germany,
England, and the United States, in regard to
China, but the usual good understanding be-
tween the powers is more emphatic by rea-
son of the position in which the foreign resi-
dents of China are placed. From Belgrade
we learn that the Minister of War has issued
an order calling out all men between the
ages of twenty aud fifty. They are directed
to report themselves to the Military Con-
scription Committee.

Courage and Fear OF Death.

The Chinese of the Southern Deltas,
who have little active courage, though
the Chinese of the North and West have
plenty, will die for bride to save a rich
criminal from the sentence he has
earned. The Bengalee, who alone among
mankind SAYS calmly, "Arme bheroo,"
("I am timid,") as if cowardice were a
matter of moral and social indifference,
or rather creditable than otherwise, goes
to execution, as Macaulay noticed, like a
hero, and will encounter an inevitable
and agonizing death without futter OF
the pulse. His nerve is as great as Vain
wright's, who died without perceptible
flutter of his heart beats, but who, un-
like the Bengalee, with an object before
him would probably have rushed upon
the cannon. The Malay, who can not
be induced or compelled to face rockets,
dies as TRANQUILITY as Casabianca; and
the Cingalese of the coast, who will fight
nobody, meets death without murmur
or a pang.
An English sailor of the old type, who
would face anything earthly except a
black cat, has probably twice as much
fear of death as the cultivated woman
who can endure death by deadly opera
tion resignedly, yet faint in the presence
of any noisy danger. The wild romancer,
Gustave Aimard, stated as fact within
his knowledge, that Spanish officer shot
himself dead rather than cross rope
suspension bridge; and we can vouch
for the following story, though we must
not give the names An English ensign
Just Joined before the first Sikh campaign
went to his commanding officer, rela-
tive, and told him that he could not face
the shot, that he should disgrace himself,
and must resign. His relative comforted
him kindly, told him he was only mel vous,
and thought he had soothed his fear !;
but the lad, as he stepped out of the tent
shot himself through the brain, inviting
death rather than meet a call upon his
courage.

The Inventor of the Electric Telegraph.

According to the Algemeine Zeitung,
Samuel Thomas Soemmering was the in
ventor of the electric telegraph. He
made known his invention in 1909, and
1T was adopted by Baron Schilling Won
Canstatt, who made experiments in
Munich in 1911, made improvements in
1920, ard exhibited the apparatus at a
scientific congress in Bonnin, 1885. Prof.
Munke, of Heidelberg, was present, and
atterward constructed an apparatus
which he showed to William Fothergill
Cooke, who went to London in 1887, and
with Prof. Wheatstone took out patent
for the purpose of introducing telegraphs
on the English railways. The first tele-
graph station in England was built at
Euston Station in July, 1887, but fort
night before that telegraph communica-
tiOn had been established between the
Academy of Sciences in Munich and the
Observatory in Bogenhausen.

The AMERICAN NEWSPAPER DIRECTORY is an
epitOme of newspaper history. It is also re-
garded as an official register of crculations.
This feature requires the closest scrutiny to
prevent it from leading TO abuses. The plan
adopted by the publishers OF the DIRECTORY to
secure correct and trustworthy reports is rigid
in its requirements, and is adhered to with
impartiality. Successful publishers, who have
something to gain by comparison, are gener-
ally prompt, not only to send reports in con-
formity, but give Messrs. Geo. P. RoweIl & Co.
such information as enables them to weed out
unsubstantated statements of pretenders in
