Seauels of Disease.

A disease is often followed by other
diseases, one or more, resulted di-
rectly or indirectly from the first sick
ness. Sometimes these come from the
debility that caused the first dis
ease, whereby inherited or 9th er ten
denotes gain power to develop them
selves.
Thus malaria, fever, diphtheria, or
even severe cold, may give rise to
consumption which might otherwise
have been delayed for years, or, per-
haps with care, wholly escaped.
Sometimes these secondary diseases
due more directly to the primary dis
ease. They then caused either by the
destructive effects OF the first sickness,
at different points of the system; or by
the clogging Of the eliminating organs
with great quantities of debris; or by
inflammation of these organs through
the stress put on them by the excessive
work of ellminat ion. Tt is to these Sc
quels of disease that physicians apply
the word "sequele. They are often
more dangerous than the original dis
ease.
One of the familiar sequele of
measles is inflammation of the eyes,
sometimes of very persistent kind
Another is consumption.
A frequent sequela of diphtheria
is paralysis. which may last for a
year or more. That of typhoid fever
is sometimes congested condition
Of the bowels-the latter not fully
healing from the ulcers that charac-
terize the fever. The patient should
not therefore dismiss the doctor too
soon.
One of the sequala of scarlet fever is
rheumatism. And as the latter often
gives rise to heart-complaint and pleu-
risy, so these last are also among the
sequelae of scarlet fever. They may
come on either during the progress of the
disease, or during convalescence. Thoy
may even be overlooked at the time, 10
reveal themselves especially hear
complaint perhaps years later.
Still another sequela is kidney COM
plant, chronic or acute, and varying
from slight inflammation up to bright's
disease. A child may have had mild
attack of scarlet fever and be wholly
over it, apparently doing well, yet
suddenly die from total inaction of the
kidneys.
The abIest physician may not be able
to prevent such result. But he, and
he alone, is aware of the hidden rocks,
and any thoughtful person can see that it
is vastly safer to let him pilot the case. -

Learned the Virtues of Champagne.

From Texas Siftings.
At a Tennessee banquet the other
night an old fellow who had been in

sat drinking champagne Looking up
with an expression of disgust he said !:

The next day, after some one had
kept the oil fellow from committing
suicide, he found the negro waiter and
said: Say, can't you get me some OF

A financial journal, speaking of the
late enormous depreciation in stocks
says that the value OF the stock and the
bonds of the railroads three years age
nov represents sum far in excess
of the amount which would be required
to duplicate every mile of the track and
every dollars worth of railroad prop
erty in the country. The stocks were
mostly water. The sums of stocks on
the market had speculative value
merely. The water has dripped out.
The speculative and gambling values
have disappeared. But the actual
property is still in existence, andin bet
ter condition than ever before. Real
values will in time afford solid basis
for business.

New York is about to try an expert
ment in the treatment of the insane on
the theory that healthy occupation is
good for the disea-ed mind. The COM
missioners of charities and correction
have bought farm of over 1000 acres
on Long Island, for the purchase OF
which S25, 900 was previously appropri-
ated by the board of estimate. The
tract is situated about thirty miles from
New York city, and the location is con-
sidered eligible for the purpose. The
tract will give patients good range OF
country, and it is thought that interest
stimulated in farming and gardening
will prove healthful to both body and
mind.

Good Butter Producers.
From the Country Gentleman.

With COW worth several thousand
dollars Mr.. Shoemaker makes butter al
cost of 4 ] cents per pound for feed
and with our common stock on the same
feed it would cost us from II TO 20 cents
for the same article This is a good
lesson for us to ponder upon and it be-
hooves us to strive TO reduce the cost of
production by increasing the butter and
milk capacity of our diaries. 1t costs
Mr. Shoemaker no more to keep his COW

to keep nine which makes pounds. We
can not all afford to buy Coomassie or

families, and instead of diaries yielding

have tested 10 to 104 pounds per week

Some of these heifers have tested as

WHY a Kerosene Lamp Bursts.

Girls, as we'll as boys, need to under
stand about kerosene explosions. A
great many fatal accidents happen from
trying to pour oil into lamp while it
is lighted Most persons suppose that
it is the kerosene itself that explodes
and il they are very careful to keen
the oil from being touched by the fire
or the light there will be no explosion.
But that is not So If can or lamp is
left about half full of kerosene oil the oil
will dry up, that is "eyaporate, lit
tie, and will form by mingling in the
air in the upper part of the can very
explosive gas. You cannot see this gas
any more than you can see air. But If
it is disturbed and driven out, and a
blaze reaches it, there will be terri
bic explosion, although the blaze did
not touch the oil. There are several
other liquids used in houses and work
shops which will produce an explosive
vapor in this way. Benzine is one, burn
ing fluid is another, and naphths, alco-
hol, ether and chloroform may do the
same thing.
In New York shop lately there was
can of benzine or gasoline on the floor.
A boy Is years old lighted a cigarette
and threw the burning match on the
floor close to the can. He did not dream
there was any danger, because the
liquid was corked up in the can. But
there was great explosion, and he was
very badly hurt This seems very mys-
ferrous. The probability is that the can
had been standing there good while,
and good deal Of vapor had formed,
some of which had leaked out around
the stopper, and was hanging in sort
of invisible cloud over and around the
can, and this cloud when the match
struck it, exploded.

lamp without at first extinguishing

himself Of the spouse whom he married in his
rickety days, some thirteen years ago. He was
then plain Henry FItzroy, with lineage dating
back to Barbara Palmer one of the beautiful
ynistresses of King Charles III, but with little
expectation of ever becoming an earl, even by
courtesy, and much less duke. She was a
woman of charming address and stylish ap

been recognized to the extent Of inserting
her name in that British Bible, ''Burke's peer
