Effects OF Railway Accidents.

Accounts of railroad accidents fire.
quently state that, although the engine
and cars were badly damaged, the pass
engers escaped without serious injury.
Yet many persons can recollect in
stances of men whose health st lily
declined after they had passed appar-
emily unframed through some mIshap
to train, and whose sufferings were
terminated by death more or less sud-
den. Some light has been cast on cases
of this kind by paper read last month,
before the Medical Society of the King
and Queens College of Physicians,
Dublin, by DR.. McSwiney. In rail
road collision there may result to a
passenger Q) shock merely, or (2) con-
cussion, or (3) confusion of the cerebro-
spinal system. In shock the functions
of the nerves are impaired, and the ac-
ton of the nervous system is thus low
cred. II has been found that great CON
fusion and injury, either temporary or
permanent, to the nervous functions
sometimes follow from a shock to the
cerebro-spinal system, when the soft
cerebral and spinal mass is struck vio-
lently against the bony case in which it
is inclosed. That slight blows often
cause serious results is now well estab-
ished. An apparently trihing injury
to the back or sacrum may give rise to
an inhammatory process, which may,
after the lapse of years even, end
fatally. And often. slowly creeping
on paralysis will ensHe upon a shock to
the cerebro-spinal center, when at first
no i'll result was apparent. In such
cases, the seeming contradiction may
sometimes be noticed that, whereas the
more severe and dangerous phenomena
often result in the very cases in which
injury appears to be trifing, on the
other hand, it occasionally occurs that

The Desolatlon OF Babylon.

II is usual for travellers to dwell upon
the utter desolation of Babylon, and to
paint its site rs a strip Of desert, es-
pecislly woe-begone and unfertile. But
the eloquent gentlemen who dwell upon
this aspect Of the place could not have
seen il in the middle of April. The
date groves and gardens along the banks
OF the Euphrates are then things OF
beauty in their fresh spring verdure,
and the plain itself is laid down with
crops. Irrigation canals cross it here
and there and give trouble to the horse
man. No grass grows upon the mounds,
and there are patches of the level white
with the inter which is to be found here
as in other parts of Mesopotamia; but
the surface of the soil is, ON the whole,
green and pleasant to the eye. The
glad waters of the river now on in
the bright morning sunshine, with palm
and mulberry hanging over its banks,
drinking in sap and life. The great
city which counted its population by
millions, and filed the world with re-
nown not yet forgotten, has disappeared
under the dust of twenty centuries, hut
nature is as fresh and jocund as when
Babylon WAS still unbuilt. Birds sing
overhead in the pleasant spring air
butterflies flutter about in search OF
flowers; balmy odors regsle the sense.
II is difficult under the circumstances
to feel as one perhaps ought to feel for
the great capital which once numbered
this ground. Nature does not mourn
for it, and it is hard to be sad at tho
bidding of sentiment when the bright
spring hides its grave,-Through Asi

CURE FOR DIPHTHERIA.-A Dublin
paper gives this remedy for diphtheria
Put a teaspooniul of sulphur into q
vine glass OF water, and stir 1t with the
finger instead Of spUon, as the sulphur
does not readily amalgsmste with water.
Wnen the sulphur is well mixed then il
is to be given to the patient to gsrgle,
and after gargling, TO swallow it, and the
patient will be out of danger in ten min
utes. When the fungus is too nearly
closing 10 allow gargling, the sui phur in
that case should be blown through 3
quill into the throat, and, after tine fun
gus has shrunk to allow of it, then the
gargling. II a patient can not gsrgle,
take live coal, put it on shovel and
sprinkle spoonful of -four OF birthstone
upon it; let the sufferer inhsle it holding
the head over it, and the fungus will die.
Birthstone kills every species of fungus
in man, beast and plant in few min
utes. A few days ago, at Princess Mary's
cottage homes, London, an outbreak o.
diphtneria attacked fifty of the inmates
but one of the nurses cured them all by
cau,ing the patients to gargle with sui
phur and swallow the gsrgle."
A HoMELY CURE FOR DYSPEPSIA, -
Here Ia rsthe- curious remefy, says
Cassell's Family Magazine, but in many
cases a very certain one, Tor the cure o
indigestion. 1t is simply the cultivation
OF habit of chewing, while out OF doors,
different kinds OF green leaves, and swsl-
lowing the juice. One can always pick
q leaf from a hedge or bush as one
passes Almost all are good that are mol
nauseous, such rs the ivy, or poisonous,
as the laurel leaf. One Of the latter,
however, is a capital thing where there
Is slight irritation of the stomach. The
chewing of leaves cures dyspepsia, prin-
cipally, | believe, by increasing the flow
of the sslivsry juice. and partly by the
tonic or stimulating action of the lea
+, hewed. The leaves that occur to me al
present as most likely to be beneficial
are those Of Che pine trees, spruce or
Scotch fir, black csthorn, currsnt aud rose
bushes, mint, the petals of many h,w,
ers, the stalks OF mountain daisies, III
~hite portions of rusbes, the bark o
many young trees, and the tender parts
OF the stalks of green wheat, oats, or al
most any oI the larger grasses; but your
own taste must in great measure guide

An Honorable Spy.

In his letter, resigning the position
OF Government Director of the Union
Pacific railroad, Mr.. Charles Francis
Adams, Jr., states very clearly and
fcrcibly the difficulties which surround
that position. 1t is simpossible, be says,
for any one to discharge satisfactorily
the duties OF q Government Director un-
der the present laws. These duties in
yolvs . thorough knowledge Of the
whole subject of railroad construction
and management, the closest and most
painstaking attention to detail in the
annual inspections Of the property in
which the Government is SO largely in
terested, and constant humiliation OF
the official in the fact that he is at all
times the guest Of the corporation he IL
expected to supervise. Mr.. Adams says
on this point:
"To "A person in any way sensitive il
is far from pleasant to be the guest of
corporation; to eat and sleep and live at
its expense; to accept every possible at
tention and hospitality from its officers,
and meanwhile to keep careful note of
every point open TO criticism, and, when
the time comes, to speak openly and
truthfully, no matter how much what is
said may hurt Neither is it agreeable
to do public duty faithfully and at
the same time to accept the money Of
one who suffers from the performance
of the duty even though that one be a
corporation. Yet the Government Di-
rector who does his duty must, under
the law MS it now stands, either do this
or go wholly unpaid. As long as this
system continues, it is practically in
evitable that services of purely formal
character can only be looked for. The
active Government Director is at best
but an honorable spy"

Austrian Warfare.

A statistical review of the battles
fought by Austrian troops since l495
has Just been issued by the military au.
thorities, which shows that in that period
the aggregate losses in killed and wonnd-
ed have amounted TO 1,0S5,9 inclue-
ing 261 Generals and 1906 officers,
while the prisoners taken by the enemy
were So Generals, 1474, other officers
and 2s9,04l non-commissioned officers
and men. As to trophies and captures,
the account stands: Guns taken, 4,l0l,
lost. 1906; colors and standards taken,
2,033; lost, 9G9; horses captured, 49,
6s2; lost, 129,227; wagons captured,

SEVERAL ladies were sitting together
on the balcony of the Clifton Hotel
Niagara, one night last summer, when
the moon, although full, was somewhat
hidden by clouds. 4 natty little fellow
came toward the group and said. softly,
Pussis, darlingl" whereupon all the
young ladies' jumped up and came
toward him eagerly. He selected one
and walked away with her. The other
brides sat down, and told their respec-

ridiculous for anything and that they
never were so embarrassed in the whole
