The Freezing Cure,


By means of freezing. parts may be
rendered wholly insensible to pain, so
that slight surgical operations may be
easily performed: When the freezingis
long continued the frozen parts may
lose their vitality entirely, which will
cause them to slough away. By this
means excresences, as warts, wens and
polypi, fbrous and sebaceous tumors,
and " malignant tumors, as cancers,
may be successfully removed. Small
cancers may sometimes be cured by re-
peatsd and long-continued freezing
Their growth may certainly be impeded
by this means. A convenient mode of
application in cancer of the breast is to
suspend from the neck a rubber bag
filled with powdered ice, allowing it te
lie against the cancerous organ Freez-
ing may be accomplished by applying a
spray Of ether, by near of an atomizer,
or by a freezing mixture composed OF
equal parts of pounded ice and salt.
Mix quick, put into a gauze bag, and
apply to the parts to be frozen. In three
to six minutes the skin will become
white and glistening, then the bag
should be removed. Freezing should
not be continued longer than six min.
utes at a time, as the tissues may be
harmed, though usually no harm results
from repeated freezing, if some care is
used in thawing tho frozen part. Il
should be kept immersed in cool water
or covered with cloths kept cool by fire.
quent wetting with cold water, until the
natural feeling is restored. Felons may
often be cured, especially when they
first begin, by freezing two or thres
times. Lumbago and sciatica, as wei
as other forms Of neuralgia; are some
times almost instantly relieved by freez
ing of the skin Immediately above thu
painful part. We have cured some o
the most obstinate cases of sciatica b.
this means, after other remedies hat
failed.

4 Philanthropist Dished.

It was a pathetic incident: The elder
~ gentleman was walking down Tenth
street when the wall of a tender youth
who had fallen on the sidewalk and
broken the crockery in his dinner-pail
smote upon his ear. s'Never mind, my
little lad; are you much hurt?" asked
the benevolent graybeard. mo, sir;
Tn not hurt" replied the youngster.
Then why do you cry?" because I'll
git licked when / go home" ..Well,
well. my boy; go and buy another plate
and cup. and your mother won't know
the difference" said philanthropy, as
he handed the lad a silver token. The
boy took up the money, but set up :
more dismal howl than before. "Tl
get licked all the same-boo-hoo!'
why SOP" asked the interested gentle
man. "Cause you only give me ten
cents, and the sucker I picked up yes.
terday give me fifty" The venerable
philanthropist strobe along musing.-

A story is told Of Will Underwood
who travels for a wholesale tea nan of
Chicago. Like all other commercial
travellers, he has been bothered by hstel
men for testimonials" Wont you
speak a good word?" and all that sort
Of thing. One day he struck Ishpeming,
Mich, where Col. Roberts had just COM
pleted his new hotel. Underwood
stopped with Roberts, and the latter
very properly did his best for his guest.
When the time came to leave, Roberts
got into the bus to 60 to the depot, and
on the way down asked Underwood hall
q dozen times how he liked the house, il
he was well cared for, etc. Finally Tn.
derwood said;
'.Tn tell you colonel, the house is
the boss; nicely located, well arranged,
comfortable beds and polite walters
but there is one feature that zoe:
ahead Of all that / have not mentioned.
1t places your house at the top of the
heap"
sis that so?" said Roberts. "Well
well! l am delighted. All, now, wha'
was it that struck your fancy, Wits"
Well, %colonel," said the man Of many
teas, 'you have got h e-best salt OF

A young man of %, built like an OK
and full Of ambition, came in on one OF
the popular excursions to Detroit says
the Free Press, and while idling around
the Central Market caught sightof apo
liceman about half as big as himself.
He was instantly taken with an itching
to try conclusions, but having a grain
Of prudence in his head he inquired of a
stall-keeper:
Suppose / should walk up to that Of
ficer and tell him I could lay him on his
back-what would he do?"
Tell you to move on"
"Then suppose I circled around and
came down on him and offered to bet
that I could stand him on his headP"
He'd probably give you another
well. Tn aching to try him on, and
I'll begin now"
He didn't lose . minute In walking up
TO the officer and asserting his belief
that he could dust the floor with his
back.
''You move onr' placidly replied the
officer.
The young man took . circle around
and came back with the information
that he could pick the blue coat and
make his heels kick the air.
II tell you to 60 away from me?' ex-
claimed the officer as he walked on.
The young man sailed off again, and
at the end Of ten minutes . row was
heard ut the further end of the market.
People rushed down to Q the officer
wolloping the buffer ' Q the empty
benches and rubbing his back on the
floor, and the handouts had just beer
snapped on when tho stall-keeper came
up and asked:
well. have you got through ~circlinl
arounde"
'.Sayl what q fool I wasr' replied tn,
young man. "You told me how tn,
first and second bluffs would work, AND
durn my buttons If I didn'tforget to asl
about the third! Why. I hadn't finish

Jefferson City 1or the purpose OF CIV
ing expression to the majority senti-
ments of the republican party of this
State, and of making nominations, if
the way be clear, for a Supreme
Judge, Railroad Commissioner and
School Superintendent. And before
that convention meets, and Us is evil
denced by the call for it, it a as
readily be seen also, that the party is
suing it holds its constituency to be
as intelligent and as loyal to principle
as that of any other State in the I'm
ion, and as wide-awake to national
interests and to be composed Of a
body of men that cannot be handled
with lasso, spur and whip like Texas
broad horns, nor driven like ptanta-
ton negroes by their political over
seers to the polls upon election days
and made to serve as allies to cunning
foes. That calls lntimates also, that
these same intelligent republicans,
giving birth to it, have witnessed the
bad results of such consortings, as the
administration would enforce, in
States having like Missouri acemented
republican party capable of self-direc-
ton; that they have noticed what
fondling with ''Isms'' has done for
Maine, where Blaine heads an almost
forlorn hope against the combinations
Of ill-mated parties and factions, and
for Iowa and Michigan where prohi-
bition has alienated from republican
ranks many native aud foreign born
votes, and for republicanism in Kan
sas where that party has u wild,
until it is in actual danger of being
so mixed up with outside tendencies
as to be no longer recognizable by
its friends in other States as the par.
ty of individual right, personal liber'
ty and national progress.
In Audrain, the chairman Of the
republican county committee has is
sued a call for a county convention
make county nominations, appoin
delegates to the congressional ant
State conventions and transact othe
business. Here, the first struggl
' will transpire at the primaries to b.
held on the 9Th inst. ]; the main fgh
= will come off on the 10TH, of the re
I suit of which our readers will be in
, formed. The larger portion of tn
republican party at Mexico seems t
have fallen back on its reserve
rights and will undoubtedly insis
upon constructing a platform, NOM
mating candidates and voting fo
= them. There is republican music l
the air everywhere and especial
. here, set to the tune of "Down wit

THE SWORD.

Twas the battle field, and the cold pale moon
Looked down on the dead and dying,
And the wind passed DER with dirge and wall
Where the young and the brave were lying
With bis fathers sword in his red right hand,
And the hostile dead around him,
Lay youthful chief; but his bed was the ground
And the graves icy sleep had bound him
reckless rover, mid death and doom,
Pass'd. soldier, his plsndes seeking,
Careless he stepped where friend an | foe
Lay alike in their life blood resking.
Drawn by the shine Of the warriors sword
The soldier paused beside it
He renched the hand with giants strength,
But the grasp Of the dead deaed il
He loosed his hold and his English heart
Took part with the dead before him,
And he honor'd the brave who died sword in hand
as with soften'd brow he leaned Ger him
al soldiers death thou hast boldly died,
A soldiers grave won by it
Before would take that sword from thine hand
Ny own LIES blood should d. ei it.
" Thou shalt not be left for the carrion crow,
Or the wolf to ba.ten Ger thee
Or the coward Insult the gallant dead,
Who in life had trembIed before Thea
Then dug he grave In the crimson earth,
Where his warrior foe was sleeping,
And he laid him there in honor and rest,
With his sword In his oxn brave keeping
