Experience of a Country Editor,
From Texas Siftings.l

tFrom Texas siftings.l
1t Is when he comes to write pane
gyric on the stock of groceries owned
and for sale by one of his advertising
patrons that the country editor throws
his whole soul into his work-that he
unshackles his fancy and devastates
the whole English language. He han
dies his lofty theme with graceful ease
from the moment that he introduces
the merchant prince on the scene IN
til, with Cioeronian eloquence and
rounded periods, he describes the last
bottle of imported pickles on the
shelves of "the mammoth establish
ment of our worthy and honored
townsman." The chief recreation of
the country editor is punctuating, with
n blue pencil and pair of shears, vol
untary communications on "Temper-
ance," "The Uses and Abuses of the
Potato Bug" "Ensilage as Means of
Grace" etc. When he has q contro-
versy going on in his columns between
two rival theologians it is quite holt
day time for him, and gives him lei
sure to pay off the arrears of cussing
that he feels he owes the advertising
agents who try to seduce him into in
sorting a five-inch display advertise
ment, top of column, next to reading
matter, one year, for $3.50, payable in
wooden type and patent can-openers.
The country editor is usually q good
fellow, and, in the spirit Of progress
and in all that pertains to the advance
of modern civilization. he is generally
far ahead of his surroundings.

A Kiss for Sister.
She was a very little girl,

She was very little girl,
And as I bent and kissed her,
"There, that is for yourself," I said,
"And this is for your sister,"

Some gay girl friends were there,
And laugh and Jest went gaily round,
To Danish weary care.
The little girl came romping in,
And Unto ne she said:

New Location for the Jcffe rSOM school

To the Editor Of THE EVENING STAR.
The apparent acquiescence of the general
public in the proposed plan Of rebuilding the
Jefferson school on the present site is to be re-
GREETED. Immediately after the fire there was
decided conviction, generally expressed that
new location should be selected. No good rea-
sons have been adduced for changing this we'll
founded conviction. 1t is well said in The STAR
that ''the shOt-tower style Of school house has
been generally condemned by leading school au-
thorities every where" Why then perpetuate
this error in the jefferson school? All the pre-
cautions that might be taken in rebuilding on
the present site could not render the building
ire-proOf. The danger to the lives of the
children and teachers, in case of another fire.
and great annoyance from the immediate vicinity
of the railroad, with it's network of tracks, can
not be OyereStimated. The government has
permitted the continuity of the park from the
Capitol to the Potomac to be broken. and its
symmetry and beauty marred and destroyed, by
the privileges given to the Baltimore and POtO-
mac railroad. Its depot or station building oc-
cupies prominent and valuable portion OF the
public reservation. The probabilities OF its re-
mOval are remote and uncertain. The public
reservations south of Missouri avenue, between
~ and 9th streets, and between Sd and AZ
streets, would, either, afford q most eligible,
central and pleasant location, with an ample
quantity of ground for q building not to exceed
t,co stories in height. Might not Congress be as
generous to the cause of public education at the
capital of the nation as it has been to rich and
powerful railroad corporation? A school build

circumstances attending the survey, fully sus-
tains our hypothesis, and demonstrates that
these attacks Of fever resulted from exposure to
higher solar heat for the first three weeks,
deeteriousiy impressing itself upon the sympa-
thet1c nerve centers, and thus preparing the
organism for the subsequent development of
fever when exposed to the Immediately exciting
cause OF that refrigeration produced by the
Increased evaporation from those low and damp
areas bordering the river at this point. For the
first three weeks the immunity enjoyed by these
men was doubtless due to the insufficient insOla-
ton and the limited degree of variation of
temperature. An analogous case corrODoratiye
of this explanation may be found in the we'll
known fact that travellers across the vast desert
OF Sahara, after being exposed to the intense
heat of the arid expanse of burning sand for many
days, are often seized with chill and fever
almost immediately after reaching the cases, or
damp and vegctative spots, found scattered by
the beneticent hand of nature, along this desc
late waste.
It would be at variance with a rational
pathology as we'll as opposed to recognized
Geological truths, to attribute these sudden
attacks Of fever to the immediate introduction
into the system of germs or gases. No such
agents could affect the human organism with
such rapidity unless it be some eminently toxic
substance capable of destroying life.

matte manner his conclusion that
MALARIA IS CHILL
especially as he manifestly had considered the
condition precedent by his remarks upon the
predisposing effect of heat upon the nervous
system in producing chill. Having prosecuted
his Investigations into this subject for the most
part in torrid climate, where he could not fail
to observe the constant and unvariable condi-
ton OF high solar heat preceding the develop
ment of chill, it would seem but natural that
he might have associated the two together as
indirectly cause and effect. If the simple sud
den abstraction of animal heat constituting
chill is synonym for malaria, how does Dr.
Oldham explain the occurrence, in many per-
sons. of intermittent and remittent fevers in the
sO-called malaral regions. who have no Chill
Every practitioner of medicine residing in those
localities will testify to the fact that large pro-
portion of cases occur without having been pre-
ceded by chill at all, and yet we are forced to
believe that they are produced by the very same
causes which operate in those cases accOmpa-
MED by chill. In view of the wide range OF
antecedent changes in the constitution Of the
blood interfering with the normal action of
those organs which elaborate the blood. result

existing and essential conditions to the prOduc-
ton of malarial Chill and manifestly the pro-
gressive result of some causative agent, the con-
illusions of Dr. Oldham seem hasty and unscien-
tihc. Whilst Oldham declares malaria to be
chill, Reber. who has written clever and in

'HYPERTHERMA, OR EXCESSIVE HEAT"
In 1856, DR.. Salisbury, of Cleveland, claimed
that he had discovered the cause of malarious
fevers to exist in the sores Of Gemasma, form
Of algOid vegetation resembling the Palmella
He supported this claim by some ingenious ex-
perlments. which failed, however, in the light OF
subsequent Investigations by Others, to estab-
iish the truth Of his theory Hertz, in a most
elaborate and exhaustive treatise on malarial
diseases, found in Ziemsennis Encyclopaedia OF
the Practice Of Medicine, after discussing the
various theories which have been presented upon
the etiolOgy or genesis Of malarial fever uses

III REGARD 10 Tie mOde Dy which heat affects the
temperature Of the human body. The generally
accepted opinion, that when the human body is
exposed to the influence Of heat. the conduction
of heat into the body, or its absorption. causes
an actual increase of temperature of the blood
producing the sensation of discomfort expe-
rienccd. is erroneous. This has been proven by
human body may be placed in a temperature OF
2l2' r. no material elevation of blood heat en-
sues nor does the individual sustain any injury
SO long as an active effort Of the nervous system
10 protect the body by means OF Increased per-
spiration and vaporization remains unimpeded
The heat necessary for such function il not
that communicated to the body by convection
from the surrounding air, but that which
is evolved by vital forces under ordinary
circumstances. Were the body rot pro-
tected. by. this increased fows of perspira-
tion and active vapprization, prevent
ing the heated atmosphere surround
ing 1t from actual contact with the surface q
quick destruction of its tissues would follow.
Instead, therefore, of a-direct impression being
made upon the nerve centers by the centripetal
convection OF heat causing exalted excitation,
exhaustion and paralysis, these conditions are
due. we believe, to the demand made upon the
nerve centers through the external af1erent
nerves distributed to the cutaneous surface act
ing as sentrtes stationed at the outpost of the
human citadel. Receiving the Impressions of
external heat, they arouse the garrison within

SUFFICIENT animal heat to keep the surface of the
body supplied with m0isturf, reducing temper
ature by its evaporation When we consider the
physical structure of the human ihtegument, its
remarkable capacity as non-conductor of heat,
added to the vital forces brought into play as an
auxiliary power against the direct Introduction
OF heat into the body, It is not difcultto under
stand such theory. Assuming this to be true.
we can readily comprehend how exhausting and
eneryating the effort on the part of these re-
ceptlve nerve centers must be in maintaining
the normal temperature of the body when 1t has
been subjected to a protracted insulation, and q
consequent drain upon the vital resources OF It's
nerve power.
