WHAT A PHYSICIAN SAYS ABOUT.
DiPHTHERIA.
The following appeared in the New

The following appeared in the New
York Ledgcy Of December a., 1880:
Sir The correspondent who sends
you the recipe for diphtheria places too
much confidence in the statement Of the
physician "who says that Of one thous-
and cases in which it has been used not
a single patient has been lost" This
statemen, is sufficient to justify the sus-
picion that not one Of the thousand cases
was diphtheria. Your advice ''to con-
suit physician" will prevent many Of
your readers making the fatal mistake
Of treating serious disease with trifling
remedies. II would be well for your
readers to have some personal knowledge
Of the characters Of the physicians they
consult. There all sorts Of men and
women in the medical profession, and
the possession OF diploma from med.
ical college, or a license from State
TO practice medicine, is not conclusive
evidence of moral fitness or professional
capacity. Some physicians are so care
less that contagion follows them as sure
as effect follows cause and there have
been cases where the circumstances lead
TO the suspicion that coniagion was in
tcnhoaal1 propagated. In the absence
Of physician the best course to follow
in case supposed TO be diph;heria is to
isolate the patient in as well ventilated
and comfortable room as circumstances
admit. Make 4 solution by dissolving
sixty grains of nitrate of silver in four
fluid ounces Of water. This is TO be used
as gargle its object is TO destroy the
membrane. Make solution by dissolv-
ing one ;easpoonful OF strong carbolic
acid in one pint Of water 10 be used
as gargle its object is to destroy the
contagion. These gargles are to be used
alternately every hour or two hours, ac-
cording to the effect produced. Swab-
bing the throat should no, be attempted
byone who is not familiar with the oper-
alton and its dangers, for, il il be not
done with tact and skill, it will convert
a curable case into a fatal one, by caus-
ing the patient 10 draw portions Of the
diseased membrane into the larynx. As
we have no specific for dipiheria the in
t-rnal remedies must be prescribed, and
the general management must be con-
Quoted by physician who has knowledge
and experience sufficient TO modify the
treatment according to the necessities
Of the case. All towels, handkerchiefs
and clothing Of the patient must be
carefully dislnfec,ed, and those articles
Of small value destroyed by fire.
Very respectfully yours, MEDIcUs.
THE writer of the above communica-
iion is well known TO US as a physician

LINE FENCES AND TREES.

Two persons own lands separated BY
4 line fence, which is common property
between TIE two parties. One has an
apple-iree on his side Of the fence, whose
limbs overhang the fence on the side of
the other. Apples fall on either side.
The question often asked is, "Do the
apples that fall on ones land belong TO
one or the other, or both ?" This SUBJ
jec, has been several times discussed,
with some contradictory decisions and
judgments. but the rules are now pretty
well established. II the stem or trunk
OF the tree grows so close TO the line
that part OF its actual body extend into
each. neither can cut il down without
the consent Of the other, and the fruit
is to be equally divided II the stem of
the tree stands wholly within the boun.
Diary line OF one owner he owns the
whole tree with It's products, although
the roots and branches extend into the
property OF the other. There was an
old rule of law iha, the latter might
claim from the yield of the tree as much
as would be an Offset for the nourishment
i, derived from his estate, bu, this is
now obsolete. The law gives the land
owner on whose soil the tree stands the
right TO cut il down at his pleasure and
the right TO pluck all the fruit from il
while i; stands. In New York the courts
have decided ,ha; ,respass for assault
and battery would lie by the owner of
the tree against the owner of the land
over which its branches extended il he
prevented the owner of the tree, by
personal violence, from reaching over
and picking the fruit growing upon these
branches while standing on the fence
dividing the lands. The owner Of the
land over which the branches extend
may lop the branches close to his line.
He may also dig down and cut the roots
square with his line il he so elects. In
plain terms il no portion of the trunk is
within his line he may refuse all trespass
OF the tree on his premises, either above
the ground or below it. But il he gives
the tree license either to extend itsroots
under his soil or to hang its branches
over his premises he does not thereby
gain any right TO its fruit. He cannot
pick il for himself nor interfere with the
picking Of it by the owner as long as the
latter remains in the tree or on the fence
which divides the property. This right
of the fruit docs not, however, permit
the other owner to come upon the soil
on the other side of the line to gather
the fruit, and all the fruit which falls
without violence to the ground on that
side may thus become the property Of its
| owner.

cEssPooL FEVER.


This Is the fever that wTough; so
much mischief IN one OF the Washington
hotels a few years ago. IL Is said by
good medical authorities TO be fatal 10
many persons every wear IN New York.
The fever Is not severe. There Is hut
little headache and no pain or tender
ness in the abdomen, Is in the case of
typhoid fever. Still the tongue is COW

bad. It's chiefcharac;erisiic lsdiarrhUa.
acute in some cases, but more generally
chronic and lasting months or even years.
The patient, il he does not recover, dies
OF simple exhaustion.
The disease j, found wherever the
contents OF oesspools and out houses find
their way into the drinking water. or
their cmanaiions into the air OF sleeping
rooms IL is quite apt to prevail at our
summer health-rcsorts, the ignorance of
proprie;ors more than neuiralizing the
abundan; hygienic provisions OF nature.
Cases occur even among the White
Mountains and al our most famous
watering places. 4, Martha's Vineyard
las; year, friend stopped 4; one OF the
most acceptable houses on the island
lie states that two of the guests were
suddenly seized with summer-siokness
soon after their arrival. 1t was found
on examination that the privy and the
well were only twenty feet apart, and
the well was quite 4 deep ont. The
contaminated water was probably the
cause OF the sickness.
The son OF n physician was taken with
disease in a yiruleni form 4, boarding
school. and dice on the third day after
his father was summoned. The young
mans room was large and high, and
everything abou, it seemed favorable TO
health. But il was found that one Of
the windows opened into the vestibule
of waier-closei, used by from seventy
TO one hundred persons. its only venii-
la,ion being through pipe ABOUT six
inches in diameter, which emptied into
the chimney of the young mans room.
He was undoubtedly poisoned and killed
by the foul ai'.

A VERY SMART GIRL.

The smartest girl I've met in Iowa l
met yesterday at Nevada, Story county,
northwestern Iowa-Miss Belle Clinton.
Miss Clinton is a bright-eyed, rosy
checked girl Of about twenty, as full Of
fun and health and vigor as good girl
can be. Two years ago Miss Clinton
was school teacher. Saving up by her
teaching about sI6o, she last spring bor-
rowed a span of horses from her father,
rigged up "prairie schooner" and,
taking her little brother, started for Da-
kota. Miss Clinton says laughingly to-
day, speaking of her trip: "Why, /
never lived so nicely in my life, and. l
never had such an appetite, and such
courtesy received everywhere! Rough,
rude men would come 10 our camp, and,
after had talked to them awhile, offer
TO build my fire, and actually bring
water to me. We went up through the
wheat country, which they call the i'm
river country It's about 100 miles
east from the Missouri at Fort Sully.
homes,eaded 100 acres OF land. Then
took up timber claim Of 100 acres
more"
"What is a timber claim ?"
"Why. hired a man and we set oct
ten acres Of trees. This gave me 100
acres more, so have $40 acres now -
But | must tell YOU about those trees
They were young locust, apple and black
walnut sprouts. sowed peck of To-
Gust beans, 4 pint Of apple seeds and
two bushels OF black -walnuts in our gar
den in Iowa a year ago. These sprouts
were little fellows and We could set them
out faSi-jus, 90 along and stick them
in the ground. But they are just as
good. | believe my 5000 little black
walnut sprssis will be worth SIS apiece
in ten years, and sac apiece in fifteen.
My locust trees will some time fence the
whole country"
Then what did YOU DO ?"
owe built j shanty and broke up five
acres of land, and this fall we came back
to Iowa 10 spend the winter, and here
We are. In the spring I'll go back with
more black walnut and locust sprouts
and take up 100 acres more. The
trees are jus; what wan; 10 plant, any
way, and they'll pay better than any
wheat crop tina; can be raised-only I've
90; 20 wait for them ten or twelve years;
but can wait.
Here is a girl who owns in her own
right sso acres Of spendid black prairie
soil now. ard who will own $50 acres
in the spring, every acre Of which will
bTing S within three years, $40 within
five years and $40 within ten years.
Her black walnut and locust trees will
b. worth as much more. a; thirty she

JUST THE DIFFERENCE.

Some men move through life rs band
Of music moves down the street, fiinging
out pleasure on every side through the
air TO every one, far and near that can
listen. Some men ill the air with their
presence and sweetness rs orchards in
October days ill the air with perfume
OF ripe fruits. Some women cling TO
their own houses like the honeysuckle
over the door, yet, like it, sweetcn all
the region with the subtle fragrance
of their goodness. There are tree
of righteousness which are ever
dropping precious fruit around them
There are lives that shine like star
beams, or charm the heart like songs
upon holy day. How great bounty
and blessing il is to hold the royal
gifts Of the soul so that they shall be
music to some and fragrance TO Others,
and life to all II would be no unworthy
thing to live for, to make the power
which we have within us the breath of
other mems joy; to scatter sunshine
where only clouds and shadows reign |;
to fill the atmosphere where earth's
weary toilers must stand with bright
ness which they cannot create for them
selves, and which they long for to enjoy
and appreciate.

p0-A Connecticut farmer says that
the butt end Of potatoes and the kernels
Of corn from the butt end Of the ears,
each produced crops that were MATERIAL
" better than where the opposite course
was pursued. In the case ofpotatoes the
stalks from the butt end were much
larger at the first hoeing. The increase
in corn was some twenty per cent. in
favor Of the butt end kernels.

p@-The dogs having learned, perhaps
from the wolves, that sheep are good
eating, it has become necessary now to
protect the sheep from the dogs. Down
in New Jersey the farmers use goats for
that purpose. Two goats can drive
away a dozen dogs. A few doses Of
their peculiar treatment will cure dog,
and he leaves the premises without any
more is or butts.

SHALL WE HAVE A NORMAN WAR ,

On this subject New York daily pa
per says DIR. Meyer, of Vienna, who
has recently spent some time in Utah,
expresses the opinion that il would take
an army Of iso, 900 men for the United
States 10 put down n rebellion Of the
Mormons, and that the conflict would
probably last several years. Such an
opinion should command the attention
Of the whole country. II is impossible
for the nation to regard Mormon polyg-
amy with tolerance as a permanent in
stitution. IL is futile to hope for its
extinction except by force, although
some affirm that the progress Of its de-
cay has been perceptible for years. The
strong arm Of the government must be
lifted up agains. the evil, and the SCORER
il is done the better for the entire repub-
lie. The Mormons are rapidly growing
in wealth, population and power, and
ten years hence they would be vastly
more formidable in rebellion than at the
present time. Prompt and wise action
by Congress, according to the plan laid
down by Garfield and indorsed by his
successor, might eradicate polygamy
from Utah without provoking rebellion.
But IL Norman war is inevitable, the
sooner ii comes the better, both for the
Mormons and for the Gentiles Of the
republic.
