Is Strength saved His Life.

Recently workman in a saw mill in
Winona, saved himself from frightful ac-
cident. He was at work on one of the
edgers when his sleeve caught in alive roll
Ter, and at once the garment was rapidly
drawn into the machinery. Mitchell saw
at a glance the impending danger, and
bracing himself by main force, stood there
while his clothes were absolutely torn from
him, even to his boots and stockings, leaV-
ing only 4 strip Of his pantaioons about six
inches wide at his ankle. 1t all occurred
in less time than it takes to tell it, and the
men in the mill stood Mortified at the sight.
When he got through the fearful ordeal be
was pale as y ghost, and great beads Of per
spiration stood out upon his face. He had
escaped with only slight bruise, but the
case would undoubtedly have been much
worse, had he not been man Of great
physical strength.

Throwing The Shoe.

One of the best known customs connect
ed with shoes is that of throwing them af-
ter wedding party Oh their way from
church 6r elsewhere. It ia, say the authors
of Lancashire Folklore, relic Of Anglo
Saxon orDanish usages, along with many
other wedding usages of ancient origin.
The Lancashire custom is to throw an old
shoe on leaving the house to be married, as
a prevention of future unhappiness, and
omen of good luck and prosperity. Iii
Northfork i is also the custom to throw
the shoe after the wedding party on pro
ceeding to the church. In Yorkshire, ac-
cerding to a writer in Homes Table Book,
in 1897 there was a custom called sttrash-
ing;" Which sigr1ifed pelting people with
old shoes on their return from church on
the wedding day. 'sTrashing' had at first
some raison d. etre, but as time went on
this became forgotten, and the custom was
Unfortunately practised among the
lower orders. The KentiBh custom is for
one of the grooms1nen to throw the shoe,
after which the bridesmaids run, she who
gets it believing that she will be married
titstg She iii turn throws it among the
men, the man who receives the blow being
also destined for marriage before the other.
A custom not very dissimilar used to pre-
vail among the Germans in the past. The
bride OH being conducted to the bride
ch amber used to take off her shoe, and
throw it among those who were near,
every one striving to catch it, and the sue
cessful one accepting it as an omen of his
or her early and happy marriage. There
is on old rhyme still extant, which gives
an early date to this custom of throwing
shoes at weddings:

In rural district of Forfarshire young
ploughman once went courting on Satur-
day night. In vain he racked his brain
for some interesting topic; he could call up
no subject suitable for the occasion-not
one sentence cotld he utter, and for two
long hours he sat in Despair The girl her
self was equally silent; she had t1o doubt
remembered the teaching of the old Scotch
and she sat patiently regarding him with
demure surprise. At last John suddenly
exclaimed, :sJenny, there's q feather on
your apron!" ''I wadna wondered if
there had been twa," said Jenny, ''for
I'VE been sittin' aside a goose a nicht.''
Nancy Wa-pa-coona Is an Indian

and lean, with his nose awry by reason OF
breakage, and very lame in one leg, pre-
sented himself at Nancy's dwelling as a
candidate. She said not word but drove
him out with club.

EDHPHTEHER Ia.
Some Account of the Terrible
Disordera-EseriEs of Filth.

Diphtheria is believed to have originated
in Egypt more than two thousand year
ago. 1t prevailed in Egypt and ASH
Minor, to which latter country it extended
during the first five hundred years, and
was early called Egyptian and Syrian u
sers. Having invaded Spain, Italy and
Sicily, and other European countries, the
disease appeared in Rome A. D. 334, and
being highly contagious, rarely appearing
as a sporadic disease, more frequently in an
epidemic form; in its fifteen hundred
years transit OH the continent of Europe
it affected mainly rural districts and gar
risoned towns; sometimes it has prevailed
SO extensively that distinct countries have
been simtlltaneously,o or successiyely visited
by it. Itextended to Holland, i'll which it
was epidemic in 1887, to France in 1918 and
1885, and in England, a.. 7nited States
and Canatlas from 1856 to 1861, nd more or
less since. AS to the prevention of this
formidable disease, some very excellent
suggestions can be advanced It has been
noticed that where diphtheria has occurred
after thoroughly Investigating the premi-
ses, sufficient cause has been discovered
to produce it, either in a neglected cellar,
cesspool, or il deficient trapping of sewer
pipes. All these should be carefully in
spected, and if the cellar should be found
damp and badly ventilated and containing
vegetable matter of any kind, all articles
that might possibly become putrid or de-
cayed should be removed at once, the cel-
lar thoroughly ventilated, the walls and
ceiling whitewashed, and disenfectants
literally scattered over the floor. Chlor
ide of lime is the best for this purpose.
Next the water closets should be locked af-
ter; if they are located in the house, they
should be examined by an honest and ex-
perienced plumber, to see if they are prop
erly trapped, and one half pound of sui
phate Of iron (copperas), dissolved in two
gallons of hot water, thrown into them at
least twice week. If there are any cess
pools in the yard convenient to the house,
pipes should be arranged to carry off the
impurities, they should be at least three
inches iii diameter, and high enough to
carry the efftuvia above the dwelling house.
If fthere are any stationary washstands
in the house they should also be carefully
examined by a competent plumber as to
the traps being safe. AS to the treatment
quite variety of plans have been pursued.
So much interest has been taken through
out the world to make the treatment more
successful, that almost all the European
countries and the United States have offer
ed premiums for the most successful mode
of treating this terrible disease. AS an
example, Her Majesty, the German En-
press and Queen of Prussia, offers prize
of 1000 reiehmarks for the best essay on
the essence of diphtheria, and the result Of
treatment of the disease, based on the knowl-
edge of the nature of the affection:

This custom has of late been very gener-
ally revived, and is now as popular at
fashionable London weddings as among
our more superstitious country folks. a
writer in an old number of Notes and Quer-

citation of dominion and authority over the
bride by her father or guardian; and the
receipt of the shoe by the bridegroom, even
