ersi We think our Aldermen have taken in
more washing than they can hang out, and have
plenty of scope for the exercise of their legitimate
powers, without dabbling with the fire depart
ment.
Finally, one word in regard to the democratic
board Of Aldermen making republican officers
walk the plank" Its none of their fault that
til, has not been done before. If good men are
scarce in the democratic party, and they are
Obliged to 90 into the republican ranks for men
capable Of filing the official positions, who is to
blame Let our ordina changing board Of
Aldermen put on the war paint, seize the scalp

can othcsls 10 every department of tue city gov
ernment. We won't complain-the republican
party asks for no favors, but mighty UaeaRey
would exist in city Offices. That course, how
ever, would be wisdom in comparison with their
dealings with the FIRE department.

something Mothers should AnoWs
That dreaded disease dphtheria ono Of The.
scourges Of modern civilization, that . few
years ago proved fatal in almost every in
stance, is rapidly succumbing to science. The
only danger Is that parents may not b aware
Of the nature Of the complaint until the fun
gus has formed 30 thickly in the throat thai
suffocation ensucs. A correspondent sends N
the following cure for It, which, she says, she
knows to be reliable, having used IL success
fully in her own family: A teasponful Of
-four Of sulphur in wine-glass full Of water.
Use the finger to stir with, as the sulphur docs
not readily amalgamate. After using the pa
tient will be out Of danger in ten minutes.
Instead of splitting out the gargle, as most
people do, no harm Is done by swallowing ID.
In extreme cases, when the fungus Is too nearly
closed for gargling, blow the sulphur through
u Quill into the throat, aud, after the fungus
has shrunk so AZ to admit 1t, then gargle Or
axe live Goals on shovel and sprinkle sui
phur on them, a couple of spoonsful at q time;
hold the face over tho fumes and inhale them,
and the fungus will die. The whole room may
ne fllrd almost to sutfocation and the patient
walk about and inhale ii, with the doors and
windows closed This latter treatment has
'urcd violent colds in the head and chest, and
Is recommended for consumption and asthma
rIuur Oi sulphur sprinkled on sores or chafcs
an excellent remedy, particularly for in
