FASTING IN ACUTE RHEUMATIsM.-
DR.. Wood, professor of chemistv in the
Medical Department of Bishops Col
lege, Montreal, reports in the Canada
Medical Record a number of cases in
which acute articular rhueumatism was
cured by fasting, usually from four to
eight days. In no case was it necessary
TO fast more than ten days, Less posi-
tive results were obtained in cases of
chronic rheumatism. The patient was
allowed to drink freely of cold water OF
lemonade in moderate quantities if thev
preferred. No medicines were given.
Dr.. Wood says that from the quick and
almost invariably good results obtained
by simple abstinence from more than
forty cases in his own practice he is in.
clined to believe that rheumatism is. af-
ter all, only phaze of indigestion. to
be cured by giving complete and contin-
ued rest TO all viscera.

TIE LArEsT AuroNAToN.

a recent news letter FROM Vienna
says Two months ago an aubOmatOH
called King Flu, was exhibited for the
first time in Vienna and caused a great
excitement The autOmatOn, as also
the stool upon which it was seated, were
too small to admit of the possibility of
cOnceallng any person who might be IN
them, Besides, the stool was of glass,
and disclosed the most complicated
machinery, consisting of wheels of all
kinds and dimensions, and springs and
chains. The machinery was wound up
at the beginning of each performance.
and was then able to answer any ques-
tion in arithmetic put to it by the spec
tators. The exhibitor, Herr Rosen, was
offered money by members of the aristO-
cracy to disclose his secret, but he re-
fused point blank. When the whole city
bad gone to see king-Eu, the court s
curiosity was reused, and the Emperor
had NJ. ROsen called to perform one eve
ming before himself, the Empress and
the little Princess Valerie. The auto
matOn solved all the problems put TO it,
and.when the performance was over, the
Empress said to ROsen: ''NOw, you viii
not mind telling us the secret of your
king-TuP'' But ROsen did mind. The
next day he quarreled with his servant,
WHO, DbALlS .u4SLllSS6u. betrayed MS
former master, and he told a dreadful
story of a young man who was concealed
within King-Fu, and who suffered hOr-
rible agonies during each performance.
The police interviewed, and found that
there certainly was la boy (ROsen's own
hePhew) inside King-Fu, but that he
was, all things considered, pretty com
Portable, and certainly suffered no ago
ny. The papers got. wind of the affair,
and Rosen announced his departure from
Vienna. But justice, in the shape of
the police, stopped him, and actually
put him in prison on the charge that he
had cheated the public out of 10000
tiOTins. After five days of detention NJ.
Rosen was liberated, there being no real
charge against him. The public, though
/ duped, was entirely on NJ ROsen's side
Those who believed that a machine,
once wound up, could answer multitud-
iDOus questions must have believed in a
miracle; and those who did not believe
it must have tacitly known that they
were being deceived in some manner.
When NJ. ROsen complained of having
spent a week in prison, he was answered
that he certainly deserved some punish
ment for cheating the very highest
court Of Europe" into believing-what?
He packed King-Fu up, and left Wen
ma, with 10000 forms, his nephew, and
bis automatOn.

GARIBALDI.

Garibaldi is dead. The event oc-
cured at his home on the island of
Caprena on the evening of the second
instant. Not a great military gent
us, not statesman, not man of
high intellectual endowments, he yet
possessed those subtle qualities which
made him chivalrous and an ire
sistible leader of men. He was es-
sentially a patriot, his soul loved
liberty, and his life was one long
warfare in it's behalf. On every bat
tlefield which marked step in the
progress of Italy towards unison and
nationality his red shirt which, like
the white plume of Henry of Nav
ARE, was his distinguishing charac-
teristic, led his legions of devoted
Italians to victory. The chivalric
| Victor Emmanuel, the statsmanlike
Cavour and the impulsive Garibaldi,
are names that will be forever linked
with Italian nationality. Garibaldi
was the last survivor of this illustri-
Gus trio and his death recalls the glo-
ry of the half-forgotten days of the
Sandman triumph over Austria, the
fall of the Sicilies, the Roman and
Venetian campaigns, the final and
complete restoration on an enduring
basis of the modern kingdom of TIA
ly. Born on the 4th of July, 1907,
and apparently endowed with the
free-bom spirit of the natal day of
American independence, in his young
er days sailor, in his early manhood
an adventurer implicated with MAJ
zini in conspiracies against the San
dinian king and escaping death by
flight to Tunis, participating in South
American wars and winning in it's
successful defence the title of "the
hero of Montevideo," returning to
Italy and participating in new revo-
lutions against its petty kings, fee
ing from their wrath to America fol-
safety in 1850 and engaging here in
the unheroic business of candle-mak-
ing, resuming his profession as a
sailor and making a voyage to China
till the time was ripe for the deliver
ance of his native country and for the
winning of an immortal name, these
are the salient points in a career
which puts to the blush the widest
conceptions of romance Erchanqe.

POLITICAL METHODS.

Biennally at this time of year
certain class of newspapers contain
a great amount of drivel about a
government of the people, by the
people and for the people," words
that had some significance as uttered
by the lamented Lincoln, but which
ordinarily have but little applicability
to the circumstances under which
they ale used. If these newspapers
are to be believed the people have
next to nothing to do with the selec-
ton of candidates for political offices
through no fault of their own but by
reason of the alleged dishonest or
reprehensible practices of citizens
called politicians" This theme is
a favorite with those who hope to
gain favor with the masses, but in
nine cases in ten, if the truth could
be known, it is adopted to serve sell
|
fish ends or to crafty spleen that is
the result of disappointment in office
seeking or political management.
In fact it is little less than an insult
to the intelligent voters of Vermont,
who know thing or two of their own
knowledge, without being indebted
therefor to the newspapers.
The calls for our conventions arc
issued several weeks in advance anC
published continuously in all the par
ty newspapers and the caucuses to
choose delegates are notified with the
same publicity. These primary meet
ings are held in a public place, will

proceedings are deliberately and hon

convention regarding their regular
ity. Not only do the newspapers
publish the official notifications, but
editorially and repeatedly they call
attention thereto and urge the voters
to attend and take part in the choice
of delegates, SO that their wishes may
be known and respected. Ours is a
government by representation and
this principle runs down through all
the various stages, from the White
House to the ward or town caucus.
No other system is proposed and no
other will answer the purpose.
Neither is it suggested that there is
better method of procedure by which
to enforce the system we have.
Everything is done that can be to in

is fair to to presume that if the great

agement of their neighbors who en-
deavor to discharge all the duties of
citizenship. Certainly if they neg
lect their opportunities it is their own
fault, and no amount of specious arg
ument will throw their responsibility
upon others shoulders.
But they say the newspapers and
individual freeman present the names
of candidates before the convention
meet and thereby forstall and over
ride the wishes of the people. Sup
pose no names were suggested be-
fore the assembling of a convention,
does any one believe that as worthy
men would be nominated as when
there is ample opportunity for the
discussion of character and qualifica-
tions? Obviously the advantage is
with the voter if he knows before the
caucus who is likely to stand before
the convention as candidate. Fore
warned is foreaImed. If an insult
able man is named the people have
opportunity to rally at the caucus
and prevent his selection, while 9th
erwise he could be carried through a
convention in spite of anything they
might do to prevent.
There is one practice the is to be
condemned always, and that is potit-
ical trading. If one man secures the
support of another by promising a
return in kind the transaction should
be characterized in very strong
terms. Few men possessing reputa-
ton of value Will embark in this bus.

usually find that their misdeeds
haunt them at every step for years
afterward. And there is this much
further to be said, that this sort OF
dickering is less liable to be effective

is freely canvassed among the voters
