The Health of the State.
The Smallpox Questionable Report C
 the State Board.

The Smallpox Questionable Report or
 the State Board.
 The report of the State Board of Health for December says on the subject of small pox Smallpox has been topic of unusual interest, and has excited some apprehension lest it may become epidemic, starting in some nest of unvaccinated persons. But in most places in this State the practice of vaccina- tion has been so general that there is no pos sibility of it's gaining foothold. As will be seen there was one death in December in Bridgeport, and the disease has reappeared in Hartford, New Haven and several other places The efficiency of vaccination as pro- | tective against smallpox has been so repeat | edly demonstrated that any new illustra- l tions seem almost superhnous, yet the de- | monstrations of it's value are repeated from day to day in different parts of the country. | There has mistaken notion arisen in respect to the bovine virus. Its protective power is Ffully as strong as any other; indeed, if per | son be successfully vaccinated with bovine | virus when 8 child and again after puberty, no other vaccination will be required in 8 lifetime as a rule. It is the long humanized virus that has lost it's power, and this fact has given all the thunder to arguments of the anti-vaccinators' association. The experi- ence of England demonstrates this fact con- clusively, as the practice of arm to arm vac- cination has been more common and long | continued than elsewhere. The increasing percentage of deaths from smallpox among | the vaccinated has demonstrated conclusive ly the superiority of the bovine virus, or at least that not many removes therefron, or which has not, in other words, passed through many human systems since the origi- nal was taken from the calf. When person is vaccinated with virus obtained from a calf and second person is vaccinated from the virus obtained from this first one, that is one remove from the bovine and is as pro- tective as the bovine but the process is repeated the virus loses its protective power, The protection from vaccination with the bo- vine virus is as great as ever it was in Jen- ner's time. The true kine pox from which the matter is derived is very rare disease, and almost all that used in America was orig inally derived from the Banging steck, in which herd an original case appeared. The power to protect against smallpox by the bo- vine virus is so great that it is rapidly dis placing all other kinds"

STORY OF A HAMMER.

Yes, am, believe, quite disinter-
'ested person, and fairly well known, for
both my courage and modesty. | was
boarding in a ret red neighborhood in
New York, and next door to me lived,
in private house, an old lady, with
her granddaughter. Need l say that
that young person was unusually at
tractlve! L regret to state, however,
that any advances on my part in that
direction were met at first with much
indifference. OF course, an acquaint-
ance with the old lady had to be made,
and very queer old lady was she.
With great many eccentricities, she
had one IN particular which overshad-
owed the rest Once her home had
been robbed, forty years before, and
she had never forgotten it. Though
she was as deaf as post, she assured
me that the least, nose disturbed her
of nights, as the dread of robbers was
always on her mind. Whether the
young lady shared her grandmother S
fears or not l did not know. rather
hoped she did.
Ii, asI thought to myself, could only
take advantage of this old woman's fan
'cies, that might give me an introduce
ton to the house. The old lady was
.garrulous, and very s8on scraped up
an acquaintance with her. had not
been talking with her more than five
minutes, shouting my words into her
ears, before | broaohed the subject of
robberies From my pocket drew a
newspaper and read therefrom in loud
tones long account of "a housebreak-
ing adventure. l must confess that in
order to add some pointto the story |
introduced some quite new facts into
the description. For instance, the
street in which the robbery toek place

Health Item.

About year ago the smallpox pre-.
vailed to some extent in Austin, and
there were great apprehensiOps at the
timesof the dread disease becoming ep-
idemic. 1t was during this excitement
that sad-eyed colored man entered a
pawnbroker arena on Austin avenue
with a blanket under his arm, which he
offered as collateral security for tenn
porary loan of a dollar. The contract
ing parties disagreed on financial is
sues, the pawnbroker asserting, with
considerable positiveness, that he was
inviting financial ruin to take possess
sion of him if he advanced more than
slick quarter on the blanket, while
the negro stated, if the times were not
so panicky, five dollars would be no in
ducement for him to part with the
blanket. a.,.. r' tih i' q
"Why, you are out of your mind
said the pawnbroker, running his arm
through a hole in the blanket. II way

new i ,f ...
I"I know dat. boss, but l hates to
part wild dat blanket on account oh de
tender recolhecShuns connected wild it,"
:; Eh2'' exclaimed the alarmed pawn
broker.
A pearly drop ran down the dusky
nose, and as hetried to swallow big
lump, the colored man said: dat
blanket belonged to my wife's mud
der, who died yesterday wild de small
poxes. but yer can hab it fer quar-
ter" LIS
People wondered why the colored
man with a blanket came out of the
shop in haste, as if fired out of cannon,
but he knew why. He wanted to get a
good start so as to beat load of buck
shot, with which the pawnbroker was
preparing to vaccinate him.. E..
