The victims Of hay fever have discovered
that there is no known cure for their annoying
nalady but it will be some comfort to be as
urcd that there is a way of warding of the
disease. DR.. bio Lewis, who has been subject
to hay fever for many years, says that the
general immunity enjoyed by women may be
traced to their table temperance. Many men
Of scdentary habits eat as heartily as farm
laborers during hot weather and there is little
doubt that their table excuses bring on the
fever. BY adopting vegetable diet, and cIer-
csng freely in the open air, the hay fever can
be prcvcnted in the majority Of cases. This is
one Of the instances in which an ounce of pre-
wnton is worth pound OF cure. When the
disease once fastens itself upon aperson, it il
almost certain to strike him every year

TIE CHOLERA.

The steady spread of cholera i. southern
Franco leaves little room to doubt that the
plague is ON an extended tour. The require
m,pt that all vessels leaving the infected ports
.b,l carry clean bills Of health amounts to
ycy little. 1t is the opinion of medical cx-
uts that cholera will cross the water and
make its appearance in this country sometime
IN the latter part of the summer or possibly as
late as November. Taking the worst view OF
the situation the sanitary authorities OF this
country have several weeks in which to make
their preparations. Thorough cleanliness and
angd quarantine are the only safeguards.

CHARLEY ROSS.

The father of the Inflated Charley Ross told
apportcr the other day, that he had, since
the disappearance of his son, examined per-
sonaly into over 700 cases of kidnapped boys,
travelled thousands of miles and spent over
100000 in the vain cndcayor to trace the boy.
Tie Ross case developed the fact that there is
hundreds Of missing children in this country
every year, but whether they are stolen or
simply lost, it is impossible to say. The extra
ordinary efforts made by the police to hunt up
little Charley and his abductors eilcctually
checked the crime of child-stcaling. Few
criminals care to commit an oilensc which at
once transforms every father and mother into
detective. The risk is too great, and the
prOitat best is very doubtful.
