kissinr-A Danger.

At first sight it might be doubted
whether this subject belongs TO a
medical journal. 1t needs no science
to practice it, to enjoy it, or to be
annoyed by it. 1t might well be
ignored by us were it not that there
is danger in it.
The annoyance to children of being
urged, and often even compelled tO
kiss visitors and strangers is bad
enough, but there is also a serious
danger in the habit, since it is not d
very infrequent source of most loath.
some contagion.
One of the commonest secondary
results of syphilis is mucous patches
in the mouth. GlasS-blowers, who
pass the glass from mouth to mouth
at their trade, frequently suffer from
syphilis caught in this way. One OF
the most terrible cases ever published
occurred in this city some years ago
in whNF over 100 persons were in
fected with syphilis by an itinerant
tattooer, who moistened his India ink
with his saliva.
SyphiliticS who have mucous patch
es invariably should be warned
against kissing others, and especially
any member of their families, lest
they infect them. Children should
not be allowed to put in their mouth:
toys vended on the st eets, and con
stantly used by the vender and Other
persons. The danger of infection
from using tin cups or tumblers in
public places is also a real one, though
much less so than those above alluded
to, since the virus is apt to be washed
away But such cups should always
be carefully rinsed before being used
The same danger exists in diphthe
ria, and in all cases of this disease thu
members of the family should not kis
the patient. Neglect of this rul,

Interesting Letter From Manchaca

EDITOR statesman:
VIII you allow Inc small space in
your paper to say something in refer
ence to the closing exercises of Prof.
A. H. Decherd's school at Manchaca.
| was present greater part of the
time during the examination, and was
delighted to see that his pupils under
stood the branches taught during the
term. A class composed of Johnny
Patterson, Thomas Matthews, Sidney
Summerrow. Sallie Hodge, Katie Car
penter, Kittie Pruitt and Annie La
benske in Swinton's language primer,
stood as fine an examination as [ have
ever heard anywhere. | think Prof
Decherd must have kept this class
on the roStrum for two hours, and
venture to say that in all my life
have never seen pupils answer ques,
lions so promptly and so correctly as
they did. The same class was exam
ined in practical arithmetic and stood
a most excellent examination. On
Friday a class composed of John
and Willie Miller, Robert Summerrow
Robert King, Johnny Davis and Bet
| tie Patterson, were examined In Swim
tons language lessons. This eXami
nation lasted about one hour and I
half, and during the whole time the
attention of the audience was riv
eted on the class, and at the close Col
Ramey, of the Texan, remarked thai
it was as fine an examination as ht
had ever heard anywhere. The elias:
in algebra, higher arithmetic anC
higher English grammar did well-ir
fact the examination was CRANE
success, and the people of Manchac;
and vicinity are proud of their school
One reason, and me st excellent one
why the examination was success i!
this: Prof. Decherd has weekly anC
monthly reviews. His motto-a lit {
well learned is better than much
poorly learned-was most thoroughly
demonstrated. AT night, after eacf
days examination, there was an eX
hibition composed of recitations
declarations and dialogues, all o.
which were well rendered. The poem
"Curfew Must Not Ring Tonight,
was recited by Miss Georgia Strick
land. 1t was touchingly beautiful
and elected great applause from thu
audience.

when and Whom to Marry.

AS to the age when people should
marry, the lady should, in my opinion,
be 20 or %, and the gentlemen five
years her senior. Poor men cannot
marry eXtravagant girls, who expect
as good home as their parents were
only able to give them after many
years of toll. The deceit practiced on
both sides is very great. The ugly
sutton gets a tailor to hide his def
ciencieS; the unSightly maiden calls
in the aid of her rouge-pot and MILL
ner. Until recently marriage-broker-
age was carried on in France. We
Americans are guilty of the same
thing in another way. Mothers sell
daughters to the highest bidders, and
daughters sell themselves for gold to
men old enough to be their grand
fathers. Such women would no more
choose honest mechanics for huS-
bands than they would convicts
from the penitentiary, There
is no reason why women should not
choose as well as men. AT present
the men have all the advantage. Nc

brought about by selfish motives are
unholy, and women who marry fol

as those who sell their virtue for a

a life of legalized prostitution. Mar

are unlawful. AS oil and water will

FROM AN EMINENT CHEMIST.
The true worth of DR.. Prices Cream
Baking Powder:


Baking Powder:
CHICAGO, March 8, 1882
This is to state that | have used DR.
Prices Cream Baking Powder in my
family in preference to any other, for
more than ten years, and that have
in that time analysed numerous
samples of the same, purchased by
myself for my own use, from differ
ent places i'll open market, and in
original packages, and that / have
in every case found it strictly pure
and reliable Cream of Tartar Baking
Powder, comprised of pure material
and free from ammonia, alum or adul-
iteration of any kind, as well as from
anything in the least injurious or OBJ
jectionable. In every case l found
this article to be so composed as to
yield the largest percentage of car
bonic acid, and therefore of effective
force consistent with the composition
of pure Cream of Tartar Baking
Powder of good keeping quality. Hav-
ing compared this with other well
known rival baking powders, | find
that it is excelled by none of these,
and that it is superior to that most
advertised, in the fact that DR.
Prices is pure Cream of Tartar
Baking Powder, instead of being
compounded in part of ammonia,
which | consider Objectionable in
any baking powder.

should always be used when children
are cutting teeth. 1t relieves the lit
tie sufferer at once; it produces
natural, quiet sleep by relieving the
child from pain. and the little cherub
awakes as bright as button" 1t is
very pleasant to taste. 1t soothes the
child, softens the gums, allays all
pain, relieves wind, regulates the

for diarrhea, whether arising from
teething or other causes. Twenty-Five

Farming in japan.

Labor in Japanis exceedingly cheap
The ordinary farm hand averages
from $40 to $50 per year, without
board and lodging. AS the land is in
general very infinitely divided the
farmers cultivate their own lands
with their own hands. There are
about 100000 acres of land under
cultivation at the present time, and
the people engaged in farming are
about 15.500.O00, SO that the average
extent of land per farmer is a little
less than one acre. The wives Of
farmers not only perform their house
hold duties, but also constitute part
of the regular farm force. taking the
easier kinds of work, such as picking
up potatoes, transplanting rice, etc.
The JapeneSe farmers subSiSt upon a
simple diet, but they enjoy robust
health, and are very hoSpitable. In
the northern province of Japan the
farmers emigrate to the island of
Hoktaido after harvest is over, and
engage in the salmon and herring fish
cries. where their labor commands
about $50 for five months service with
board. This is considered as the high
est wages in Japan.
The manure-the most important
item in farming-is carefully econo-
mixed by the Japanese farmer. He
never wastes what will contribute to
the fertility of the soil. The chem
ical analysis Of fish guano shows that
it contains nine parts of nitrogen and
three parts of phosphoric oxide. This
fish guano is made on the northern
coasts and used in southern provinces.
Paying great attention to the economi-
cal application of manure. the Jap
anese farmer next considers the thor
ough tillage of the land. The soil is
finely pulverized by rude nipple
ment, somewhat similar in conStruc-
ton to a common hoe, and the weeds
are carefully pulled up or plowed
under.
The Japanese farmer never allows
weeds to grow and draw elements of
fertility from the soil. Every farm,
every field, looks like a garden.
From this point of view, japanese
farming may aptly be called garden
ing rather than farming. 1t is a JOY
Gus time for every farmer when the
wedding of the rice field begins. Men,
women and children all go out into
the field and pull up every weed they

incest condition. They do not mind
how deeply they must get in the mel
low mud of the rice field, but proceed
with their work singing merrily and
heartily, and when their labor is
over they have big feast in a family |
circle, and look for future blessing
from heaven. Rice may be under |
stood as the staple crop in Japan, and
the japanese farmer depends entirely |
upon this one crop; but rice needs
water for its growth. hence the water
question in Japan becomes a most
important one. AT present every
water system is carefully utilized for
the irrigation of rice fields, and the
system of irrigation is such that
when the rice ripens its seed, and is
ready for its harvest, the water is
drained off, and the field is made ac-
cessible for men to work.-American
Agriculturist.
