Woman and Medicine.

DR.. Richardson, an English physician,
says Ill q public address II want strongly
to enforce that it is the women on whom
full sanitary light requires first to fall.
Health in the home is health everywhere;
elsewhere it has no abiding place. l have
been brought indeed by experience to the
conclusion that the whole future progress
Ut the sanitary movement rests for pcrlna-
nent and effective support on the women
OF the country. When us Il physician | en-
ter house where there is a contagious dis
ease, l am, Of course, primarily impressed
by the type of the disease and the age,
strength and condition of the sick person.
From the observations made On these
points form a Judgment of the possible
course and termination Of the disease, and
one time had thought such observations
sufficient. A glance at the appointments
and arrangements and management of
the house is now necessary to make per-
feet the judgement. BY this glance is de-
tcctcd what aid the physician may ex-
pect in keeping the sick in !; condition
most favorable for escape from death;
and 10y this is also detected what are the
chances that the affection Is confined to
one sufferer or distributed to many. As
Il rule to which there arc the 1arcst cx
ccptions, the character of the judgement
is hcreupcn dependent OH the character
Of the presiding genius Of the home, on
the woman who rules ever that small do
main. The men of the house come and
go; know little Of the ms and out, of
anything domestic; arc guided by what
they are told, and are practically of
no assistance whatever. The woman arc
convcrscnt with every nook Of the dwell
ling from basement to roof, and on their
knowledge, wisdom and skill the phys1-
clan rests his hopes. How important
then, how vital that they shall learn, as
a part OF their earliest duties, the choicest
sanitary code"
AS a timely illustration of the correct
ness Of this judgment, may be permitted
to state, on the authority of DR.. Bovtlitch
OF Boston, that the movement which re-
suited in the establishment in Massachu-
sets of the first board of health in the
| United States, originated with tho lady
OF Pittstcld (Mrs. Thomas r. Plunkctt,)
who had been intimately connected with
the Maplcwood seminary in that town
at the time of the wcll-known outbreak
OF the typhoid fever in that institution,
and was an intelligent observer of those
violations Of sanitary law which led to
such disastrous and fatal results.

proudly and lovingly did he take her
home.
"How did you find me out, George?"
ooh, you are easy to find out, Emma.
Of course I knew If you went out in a
carriage, that you got carriage at Nor
rel's. But how do you come to know
this Frenchman?''
"You think all foreigners are French
men, George. He is an Italian, and so is
his beautiful wife. He came from
London tc paint my lord bishop and the
cathedral, and the signora was so much
better here that he resolved to spend the
winter in Yorkshire, and try and make
enough to take her home to Italy III the
spring. My lord asked me to have my
picture done, and papa paid for it in
order to surprise you. l think, George
dear, you had better not let papa know
you have spoiled his SURPRISE
George felt more and more sorry and
Inundated as he looked in the pretty,
frank face, and thought how chccrfully,
after all, she had taken tho forcstallmcnt
Of her Christmas secret.
II will do as you say, Emma. Has
the signor plenty of work?"
"Hc is painting many of the principal
ladies in the city. Tic bishop thinks
very highly Of him. Indeed, I have seen

George let the subject drop now as
quickly us possible to Emma; but he
talked Il good deal about it-and in no very
good tcmpcr-to his godfather. For
once Mark had no excuse for his suspic-
ions. He was quite awcd by the fact
that he had dared to think wrong of ill.,
| terviews which the bishop had arranged
and honored with his presence.
He had lost faith in his own pcnctr,-
ton regarding the sex, and George and
Emma were quietly at some pains to GOV.
vince him that good and true women arc
the rule and not the exception.

how it came about, know that the next

Oh, how wish that my two broad hands
Spread right and left,
Stretched from the poles to cquators bands,

Some summer day in my wrath would rise
Sweeping all space with my hands OF size,
And smash all the uncounted million flies
Clear out Of sight.
Vain arc my wishes, oh, little house fly,

THE CROOKED RAILROAD.

Investigations made by the citizeus
committee of Storey county, appointed
at mass meeting of the people. to
state their grievances to the Legislative
Railroad Committee. has shown that
the Virginia u Truckee Railroad is
doubly entitled to the name of "Crooked
Railroad" bestowed upon it some
years ago by Adolph Sutro. The state
ment made by the Superintendent to
the Secretary of State is fully as crooked
as the line of the road from Carson to
Virginia City. The sworn statement of
the value Of the road made to Comfy
Assessors, and the sworn statement
made to the Secretary of State. differ
very materially. The first fixes the
value of the road at less than $3.50, 900,
while the second places it at about
$4,000, 900. The Company, according
to the statement of the Superintendent.
pays taxes on less than the actual net
earnings of the road. 1t is said that
the Superintendent Of the road is not a
citizen of the United States, aud has
supreme contempt for American insti
buttons. This probably accounts for the
discrepancies in his sworn statements.
as he does not feel under any obligations
to confne himself to facts. when CON-
PEELED by meddlesome assessors and in
quisitive committees to give informa-
ton about the road of which he is
Superintendent. IL is said, however.
that the distinguished alien, thoroughly
understands the management of a
Nevada Legislature. and has the Joint
Committee of Fourteen under his con.
troll, with the exception of few re-
fractory members. who are so stupidity
stubborn that even golden arguments
will not convince them that they were
not pledged and elected to relieve the
people from the crushing extortions of
railroad monopolies That the people
have been betrayed by majority of the
Legislature is made painfully apparent
by the defeat of the Equalization bill
and the course of the Com mittee of
Fourteen. whose greatest object now
seems to be to defer reporting a fair
and just railroad bill until it is too late
TO get it passed by both Houses, The
members who are disposed to abide By
their pledges and fulfill the promises
made to their constituents appear to be
in such hopeless minority that they
are powerless and cannot enact law
that will relieve the people from the
oppressive exactions of the crooked or
any other railroad.

The State of Nevada to. day. conducts
its financial affairs on a cash basis.

was some $3.50. 600 in the State Treas
ury, and ex Governor Bradley in his
message, and ex Controller Hobart and
ex Treasurer Schooling in their reports.
suggested the propriety of reducing tax
alton. Mr.. Hobart. who is perhaps the
best authority in the State on its inan-
cial affairs, believed that the State rate
of taxation for the next two years could
be reduced to forty cents on each 800
valuation of taxable property. and that
rate would leave at least 100000 in
the State Treasury at the opening of the
session of the Legislature in SSl, two
years hence. 1t therefore depends up
on the Legislature now in session
whether taxation shall be reduced and
the State kept on q cash basis, or
whether the rate shall remain as it now
is, with prospect of the Treasury be-
ing depleted iu two years. The bill to
erect State Insane Asylum in Nevada.
passed the Assembly, AMI as its advo-
Gates are making all possible combina.
nations and trading votes for all sorts
of measures for votes for the bill, it is
probable that it will pass the Senate.
Should it become law it will cost the
State at least $3.50, O0O. and if taxation
is then reduced, the State will have to
borrow money before the asylum is
completed.
It must be remembered that the Com
stock miues, which for several years
past have been a great revenue to the
State. are now in barren zone in the
great lead, and that thu receipts from
tax on the,net proceeds of mines is not
likely to be more than a small fraction
of what it was for several years past.
The burdens OF taxation must therefore
be borne by other property until new
bonanzas are developed in the mines.
Under these circumstances it is the
plain duty of the Legislature to guard
the Treasury and prevent the passage
of appropriation bills except what
are actually necessary for carrying on
the government. The Nevada insane
are comfortably provided for and
humanely treated at Stockton, and the
expense of keeping them is perhaps less
than it would be at the present time
in Reno. There is no necessity what
ever for building an asylum at this par
ticular time, and if the Senate does it's
duty to the people it will defeat the
insane bill.
