THE BLACK DEATH.
The Plague that Has Rcappeared in

New York Times.l
The black death. which has again appeared
in some parts of Russia, has proved TO be
very destructive, and caused the greatest
alarm. This is the same disease which. in the
fourteenth century, desola.ed the globe, and
it gets its name from the black spots symp-
tomato OF purid decom position, that show
themselves az one of its stages on the skin of
the sufferer. 1t is thought to have its origin
in China in 1888, some fifteen years before its
outbreak in Europe, and it ragged for twenty
five years that 1t swallowed towns AID noun
tains, and swarms OF locusts spread devssta-
tion everywhere. During the same period
Europe had as many abnormal conditions as
the East. The order of nature appeared to
be reversed. The seasons were at various
times inverted; thunder storms were frequent
in mid winter, and volcanoes, long consid
cred instinct. burst forth afresh. The theory
is that the extraordinary activity of the
earth, accompanied by decomposition of vast
organic masses-myriads of locusts, brutes
and bodies of human beings-producedso some
change in the atmosphere inimical to life.
Some writers say that the impure air was ac-
tualiy visible as it approached with its bur-
den of death. The plague owed its extension
almost wholly to infection and contaeion

Although there is little danger of the spread
of the pest to Western Europe-for many
generations it has been confined to the
East-it is not strange that the Russians
should be startled by ravages which
the black death has already made.
Persons attacked by it are said to die like
flies. and the ignorant and superstitious
peasantry are so terrified by it that many are
thought to have perished of pure fright.
Fortunately, the laws of health and the
peculiarities of the disease are much better
understood now than in centuries gone by.

Tribune to telegraph without the use of q

New York at 10 IN the morning are felt in
China at 10 the night before. Now let the
message keep on, in the same di-
rection, and when it has com
pleted the circuit of the globe 1t
will have made a gain of twenty four

day before it started. BY making two cir

The habit of snoring is peculiar to no
class, but that the sn orer is a common pest
no one will deny. A contributor to the
Popular Science Monthly tells the cause of
snoring and how it may be cured. First,
as TO the cause. The air reaches the lungs
through two channels, the nose and mouth.
The two currents meet in the throat below
the soft of the palate the end of which
hangs loose, and swinrs backward and for.
ward, producing the snoring. If the air
reaches the lungs, as it should, through the
nose, no noise will be made. If IL reaches
the same through mouth, the palate will
make more noise, since it is not the natural
channel. But when 1T rushes in through
both these channels, then ii is that the sound
sleeper banishes rest from the pillows of his
companions by his hideous noises.
The remedy for snoring is to keep the
mouth closed; and for this purpose DIR.
Wyeth, the writer of the article referred to,
has invented an article so cheap that any
without it. 1t consists of a single cap, fit
ting the head snugly, and a piece of soft
material fitting the chin. These are con-
nected by elastic webbing, which is con-
nected with the head cap near the ears.
This contrivance prevents the jaw from
dropping down, and thereby renders snor-
ing impossible. The great trouble will be
to get the people to adopt this invention,
since the most honest and upright of men
and women will rarely, If ever, confess that
they snore and will be very indignant II
accused OF it. As a further inducement to
the introduction of this continuance of DIR.
Wyeth, it may be added that breathing
through the mouth is very detrimental to
the health, and that many diseases of the
throat or lungs are contracted or aggravated
thereby.
