HOW TO DETECT DIPHTHERIA.

Physicians in private practice as wei
as in public employ say that almost
every ailment noticed in child is tax.
en- for diphtheria, and that diphtheria
treatment is often hastily administered
by anxious parents in innocent cases OF
cold.
There are frequent calls at the offic
Of the Board of Health for n circular
intended for free distribution, and
which contains instructions as 10 what
should be done when diphtheria enters
a household. An employee of the Board
of Health says that the most important
part Of this circular is its description of
the early symptoms of the disease
"Give heed" he saws in his inter
probation of this part of the circular.
1.-the moment you observe signs in your
child Of unwonted weakness, fatigue or
physical debility, particularly if il is ac-
companied with little fever. Make the
child frequently open its mouth, so that
YOU can observe its throat. 1t is in the
throat that the lay observer win first
discover any signs of diphthcria New
er mind how red and how much in
famed The throa. appears. That does
not indicate the disease. But the in
slant you see white spot and detect
bad odor, run for a doctor. The white
spot will grow. Other white spots win
appear. and will eventually run togeth-
err if the disease is not checked. The
.ime to seek medical assistance is be-
fore these spots run together. "-Ner

HOW TO MEASURE AN ACRE.

A field Of the writer's, before ii came
into his possession, had been plowec
and reapcd for fifteen acres. On meas
uring il. il was found TO have bui
twelve acres. /. is desirable, in fact
indispensable for good work, that q
farmer should know how many acres
each field contains, for otherwise he
cannot apportion seed or manure for
il. nor can he tell how much time il
should require to be plowed. A meas
uring cord should be a part of the fur
niture of every farm. To make one.
procure sixty-seven feet of strong rope
one inch around make loop or fasten
a ring or bar at each end, and make
these precisely sixty-six feet apart
Then tie piece of red rag in the cen
ter. One acre of ground will be a
piece four of the cords (chains) long
and two and one-half wide, equal 10
sixteen by ten rods, making 100 square
rods to one acre. The advantage of
the ring or loop is that one person can
measure alone, by driving stake in
the ground TO hold the rope while he
stretches it out. The rope should be
soaked in tar and dried, which will pre-
vent it from shrinking when wet.

The Ultra Style Of Hotel Clerk.

The hotel clerk is Young man who
was originally created To fill an Emper-
or's throne or adoln a Dukedom. but
when he grew up. there being fewer
thrones and doms than there were En-
pcrorS and Dukes, he was temporarily
forced to take a position behind n hotel
register. His chief characteristics are
dignity of bearing. radiant gorgeousness
of apparel, haughtineSs of manner, and
jewelry. His principal duties consist N
hammeriug on the call bell, in handing
guests the wrong keys to their rooms.
and in keeping supply of toothpicks
on the end of the desk. When all his
time is not taken up in the performance
of these arduous duties. he viii condo

not know whether the north-bo train

Insists on entcing further information

room in the house. The stranger saws
he is bound to have room. The clerk
retires back Of the desk, and after con-
sulting pigeon-holes, concludes that the
gentleman may have No. 1892. He
writes some hieroglyphics or the regis
ter, and then he talks for half an hour
with the porter and the baggageman
about the trunk of the gentleman in No.

gage belonging to the gentleman in No.
"a. When he gets that matter arranged
he sits down to polish and admire the
long nail that he is cultivatng on his
little finger, and forgets the gentleman
who has rented No. 1892 until he is
made aware Of his existence by an i'm
patient tap on the counter. With the
air of martyr and sigh, he SAYS:
"Ah! would you like to go to your
room?"
Then John shows the gentleman to
No. 1892.
No matter how crowded hotel is.
the hotel clerk always finds one room
left for the late arrival. When the lat
ter kicks about it, when he is leaving
next day. because it was on the fifth
floor, and was furnished with nothing
but bed, bar of soap, and crack in
the ceiling, the clerk tells him that if he
had only been staying another day, he
could have had an excellent room. in
fact, the best room in the house, which
would be vacated after breakfast, by
gentleman who was leaving on the
noon train. To our certain knowledge,
the gentleman has been leaving that
eXcellent-that ''best room in the house."

" President Huntley, of Lawrence
University, has students rebellion
of considerable dimensions on his
hands. The trouble seems to have
originated last Fall, when several
young men were expelled from the
institution by DR.. Huntley, for hav-
ing gone on spree. Since then
the college paper has violently abus-
ed the President, and he seems to
have now assumed the Dictatorship
and notified the societies publishing
the journal that they will be held re-
sponsibe for the offensive articles
The students are going to law about
the matter, but Dr.. Huntley remains
firm and will either conquer or re-
sign his office. An attempt is being
made by the rebelIious students to
SO influence their home friends that
at the NJ +. Conference, next Fall
there will be "a number of deleg ates
pledged to DR.. Huntley's withdrawal.
