giphthecIa and its Cure.

Chicago Journal
Mr.. EDlToR.-Allow me to say few
words of the greatest importance to the
public, through your journal, in regard to
the terrible disease diphtheria, which is
raging with great destruction of lives
throughout the country. 1t has ragged here
20 q fearful extent, quite a large number
OF cases proving fatal.
There is family here by the name OF
Light, who moved here from Rochester
this season. Mrs. Light saio to some OF
the neighnors that before moving here
she bad an attack of the diphtheiia, and
cured herself by the use of kerosene oil
as gargle, swallowing some; but the
remedy was so simple that our citizens
didn't think anything of it until five of
Joseph Jelley's children were taken down
with diphthena. Their throats became
swollen and cankered terribly. Mrs Jelly
sent after her neighbor, Mrs. Milliette
VINO had lost a son by the disease, to as.
certain whether it was really diphtheria
or not Mrs. Miliete pronounced il
dIphtheria in very dangerous form
Mrs. jelly said she would use Mrs. Lights
rew edy-keroscne oil-which she gave
her children as a gargle, also had them
swallow some. The children recovered
rapidly, and in few days were out on
the street.
Another neighbor by the name OF
Louisa, railroad trackmaster at this place
mad three children taken with diphtherla
and cured them with kerosene.
William Emery had four children
taken down, and gave kerosene oil, and
they recovered.
Robert Gillette was taken down, and
cured himself with kerosene.
John Reynolds, OF Ingraham, had 8
daughter and niece cured by kerosene oil
after they were given up for death by the
doctor.
What is most astonishing is that not a
single case where they used kerosene oil
has proved fatal. The remedy is simple
aud certainly cheap, and always at hand
IN all families throughout the land.
Also, George Gillette had three chill.
dren taken with the same disease very
bad, and they were cured with kerosene

The Year Compile ted.

No more the beauteous sun this year shall rise,
The fragrant flowers no more within it
bloom,
The ftful storms are gathering in the skies,
And the bright morning star now sets in
gloom.
The garlands too are verdant now no more,
The bird)ing's song no more our hearts in
spire,
Blu! winds convulsive through each crevice
pour,
W lille we rejecting see the year expire.
The year expire! All no, tits only fed,
IT'S gone, and will no more to us return,
It came and went and DER us blessings shed,
And gave us time our lessons well to learn.
Life is school, and years the teacher sent,
To give the counsel and the record keep,
And all the favors are the talents lent,
Which angles gather when they come to
reap.
Now, to the passing year, we bid adieu,
And its successor we would greet with JOY,
And ask that DER life'S pathway ii may strcw,
Prospective good that never shall alloy.

Curing Meat.

Saltpeter, although giving to hams
and picked beef fine reddish appear
ance, is regarded as Objectionable by a
great many. A writer in an old number
OF the American Agricuzturist speaks of
having very successfully used sulphate
OF potash In place of sa.tpeter. He says:
"a much less quantity Of sulphate of
potash will cure and save meat than of
common salt or saltpeter. have used it
IN curing hams and shoulders, and dried
beef and barreled beef, picked; and this
sulphate of potash communicates to meat
an admirable flavor. entirely superior to
that which it has when cured by saltpe.

curing meat az Is generally used of SAT-

pounds OF meat" The writer adds; II

member anything about the curing of
meat. The sulphate of potash abounds

common salt, stirring it we'll. Let h \,

If tie hams and shoulders have had SUI

then lain few days before the brine is

Mr. John Lewis, of Kentucky. has for
thirty-ive years u1ed another mole of
applying sulphate of potash. which is
contained in wood ashes, to the curing Of
hams and shoulders His mode of cur
ing is to mix one part wood ashes with
four parts of common salt, and pack the
meat down in this mixture After letting
the hams, etc, lie three OF four weeks, he
washes them and smokes them. And
Mr.. Lewis says that tlis mode of curing
makes good, sweet meat. But the surest
and best way FOR those who can procure

ash. This article is strong salt, and vet
is only gentle purgative. If an ounce
were to be taken, although rather large
dose, it would not iniure any grown per

large doses irrita'es and iDfames the
bowels, and dose of one ounce produces
death. 1t is a strong poison. Taken
in small doses Of one or two
grains it diminisbes the heat of
the body extremely, and is used BY
physicians for that purpose in fevers. In

In the silence and the darkness of the night
The Old Year steals away,
And quietly the New Year takes his place
Before the dawn Of day.
Half conscious Of his presence. we awake
And joy to find him here,
Friend calls to friend, and merry children
Shout Happy, happy New Year"

Or bitter winds that blow,
The sun is coming northward through the

Although his pace is slow,
Our thoughts run on before him, and the

With yiolets is here,
The roses we already scent afar;
Our hearts are full of cheer.

Honors God unaware;
